This remaster is frustrating. The mandatory intros and sensitivity warnings are extremely annoying. Having to search for a fix shouldn't be necessary. Okay, show it the first time the player runs Quake, but not every single time. And give the player the option to disable it in settings. Then you have the awful Bethesda login which is a major nuisance as well. You start a single-player game, and immediately notice the poor audio for the shotgun that has been butchered. How is this possibly? I honestly find it incredibly disrespectful toward the masterpiece Quake is. To new users: Download Quakespasm or FTE for the single-player campaign and make sure the CD audio works. Since this is the only Quake release on Steam, I'll recommend it, but this is poorly executed.

Quake is the end, and Quake is the beginning. Marking John Romero's exodus from the studio, it represents the last game that ID Software made as it's iconic self. As the first truly 3D shooter, it represents the beginning of the definition of first-person shooter that continues to bless us to this day. Oh, and the port is pretty damn good too.

pleasantly surprised by this, kinda expected it to just be a slightly less stylish doom but in proper 3D with stuff like rocket jumping but the game is pretty different, the balance is way better, doesn't feel like you have to do a pistol start on each level for a proper challenge. playing on hard, I always felt like I had the right amount of resources for each level, and you actually have to use different weapons (apart from the melee weapon which kinda sucks) - tbf the weaker versions of each weapon class aren't that useful, the regular nailgun especially seeming basically useless, but the regular shotgun is useful because it has less spread so works better at range, and the grenade launcher can be used to shoot around corners. and every time you start a new episode, you reset your weapons, so you have to use the regular weapons every now and then anyway. because the game is better balanced, finding secrets actually can feel worth it, if you find quad damage on a hard section it can be a big deal. the game wasn't that hard on hard difficulty, but I imagine on nightmare difficulty you'd really benefit from knowing the secret locations. you don't have to play it like doom where you either save scum to keep your weapons when you die, or restart the level when you die and accept the punishment of losing your weapons, but find the levels too easy there are 4 episodes which is 38 levels I think? good value for money, wouldn't consider any of the levels 'bad', but the game can feel like a bit of a drag if you get into a meh level, because the mechanics are pretty basic. but the game has such good atmosphere, you get the unsettling dark ambient soundtrack by trent reznor of nine inch nails, which gives off doom 64 vibes, and some of the levels are really dark, I was actually lighting up some levels using my guns as torches by shooting them when looking for secrets lol the last episode can feel a bit bs with the introduction of 'enemy that erratically jumps in your face, explodes when you kill it, and seems to either resist a ton of damage or has a tiny hitbox', but the interesting level designs in that episode make up for it you also have even more levels for free with the expansions, only just started playing them but there's a ton of content there as well which seems well received. got about 20 hours of playtime pre-expansion, with a decent amount of time being afk, getting stuck and obsessively hunting for secrets.

If you grew up playing Quake, this remaster is better than you remember it. An absolute labor of love. If you never played Quake, you can stack this remaster against any boomer shooter coming out today and Quake still comes out on top. The extra levels on top of the original are all worth playing, especially Dimension of the Machine. There are some really cool level designs in there. Best ten dolla you'll spend on videogames!

July 2024

probably the best shooter of all time. fun to speedrun too Play Arcane Dimensions and play the map Tears of the False God because that is legitimately one of the best experiences you could ever have in an FPS game.
