Quake

I swear, not even Amnesia managed to creep me out as much as the last chapter of Quake.

Truly a masterpiece.

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!

It has its imitators, but you can't fake the Quake!

Oh this is great! I'm so impatient to see what the guys who made it have done in the sequel !

huh?

Brilliant level design and movement mechanics coupled with a banger soundtrack. However, coming from Doom, one may notice how much spongier everything seems to be in this game, and how little feedback there is on hitting an enemy.

Psychedelics the game

One of the greatest shooters ever

definitely does NOT lack skibidi truly an fps classic very fun, but doesn't really have over an hour of cutscenes so 0/10






why did they give the final boss that name though?
I'm the only one asking the REAL questions

Quite literally my favorite first-person shooter of all time, Quake is a clone of id Software's own Doom with attitude and graphics and multiplayer that were state-of-the-art in 1996, and the remaster is not half-bad either.

It's worth the price for a jolt of nostalgia. Plus, you can catch up on all the expensive mission packs that originally came out. I'm still not fond of the way weapons and enemies combine--they feel like blasting a stuffed animal. Still, it's a piece of history.

Nightmare is the only recommended skill level to play this master piece. git gud noob.

Nothing says "modern re-release" like upscaled pixels and shadows so dark you'll wonder if your screen's broken. The story’s there I GUESS, but getting hit in the face by an ogre grenade? That’s a timeless classic.

Good everything- play Dimension of the Machine, that's my recommendation.

Not much to say, an absolute classic. Still as much fun now as it was when first released!

Dated graphics and mechanics, but a must play for PC gamers.

very fun and it maintains the original quake feel

QUAKE and DOOM is good , buy all their collection if your budget allow , highly recommend collecting all id classic games in steam ;)

I'd never played Quake until Nightdive's remaster/remakes. Thanks to the great gameplay and design of the original, as well as the phenomenal work to restore and update what's needed to suit modern gamers, I had a blast.

After Doom, THIS was the height of AAA titles.
It required a Pentium. When it came out I had a 486. Thus, TIME TO UPGRADE was born.
It still is a great game. Run & gun with the added allure of hidden spots.
I remember Id talking about the number of polygons used for various models.
If you are expecting to be wowed, it'll only be the game play.
Try the hardest difficulty, you'll be crying within an hour.

Even if not 100% perfect, the ease of setting up a multiplayer match with your buddies and the availability of the original version make this a +1

Honestly one of my favorite remasters due to my enjoyment to Quake 1
I do hope they remaster Quake 3 and maybe improve Quake Live

Still a really fun game. The new level pack, Dimension of the Machine, is exquisite, and worth the purchase alone. My only wish is that Quake had more enemy variety. After getting through the new expansion and trying to play the rest of the plentiful content, it gets a little old fighting the same cast.

Great FPS game. Completed mission packs, and am now playing the add-ons.

classic, still good now because it's been worked on in the past few years

Single player campaign is pretty fun, but is also good in coop. Always something to come back to with secrets, and someone satisfying motion with slope jumping.

Probably the only FPS I tolerate. Everybody knows Quake, there's not much else to say.

A classic, one of the greatest games and arguably the most technically influential game of all time, a must play for any fan of shooters which holds up incredibly well and is a blast to this day. I highly recommend.

(Note, I have beaten the game and have many more hours on engine ports)

One of the most overrated games of all time.

I do not believe in sacred cows. And the biggest issue i have with Quake, it's how easily someone can tell id Software had so MUCH more planned for it before just deciding to go for a repetitive Doom styled shooter, which in many aspects, it's clearly inferior to original Doom. For starters, there is not even an action key or in-game map since levels not only seem less inspired but turn out feeling more repetitive to play than Doom's more stellar level designs. Combat can get very, VERY repetitive and much less satisfying than Doom and I almost had forgotten about most enemies from Quake with the exception of those which are just annoying and tedious to go against which just pale of comparisson to Doom's iconic demons, and while Trent Reznor's work will be always commendable, hearing the same ten ambient tracks for the enterity of the game will easily add to the overall monotonousness.

Now, being a weaker shooter than Doom wouldn't be much of an issue if the game had something else going for it. Something such as, maybe actually being an rpg/shooter hybrid game as it was originally planned?.. I can only imagine the truly exceptional game Quake would be making use of it's dark fantasy setting to make a far more expansive and rich experience. instead, all we ended with is yet another game for the crowd who likes shooting at things until they die and nothing else beyond that.

The reason i refuse to recommend Quake is not because it's not best shooter of all time, nor even for being inferior to Doom despite the better tech, but because all the wasted potential i see behind it, the undeniable feeling of playing something that feels just limited, mainly over factors such as being rushed and stripped out of most of it's original ambition.

The tech behind Quake may have been revolutionary at its time, but as a game, Quake isn't really far distant from being a repetitive tech demo with a lackluster ending and, despite what die-hard fans of the original game would say, Quake eventually becoming a multiplayer focused series would demonstrate that Quake's true merit would never be into the singleplayer aspect.

It is good. Here are my thoughts on the campaigns:

Quake: pretty good, I hate those purple things.
Scourge of Armagon: pretty good, great music, hate final boss.
Dissolution of Eternity: pretty good, hate the earthquake thing that makes moving a nightmare, and it has an actual good boss fight, a first in the series.
Dimension of the Past: can't lie, I was kinda bored, felt like Quake 1 but copy and pasted.
Dimension of the Machine: genuinely kinda love it, if you told me this was a fan made campaign, like Arcane Dimensions or Death Wish for Blood, I would believe you, because holy shit, it is nice, proper nice I tell you.

Overall, would recommend, it's money well spent (ESPECIALLY on sale).

The bullet spongyness of each enemy makes this game feel forced in it's difficulty. It's inconsistent.

This is shown with the final boss of chapter 1 where it takes like 20-30 seconds to win because all you are doing is going in a circle 3 times and the likelyhood of getting hit by this "boss" is low.

chapter 2 was basically the same thing for the "boss"

honestly,

All of the bosses were designed poorly, you can spend the time to "learn the game" but will ultimately be stumped by random stopping points like a wall that will crush you but all you need to do is stand on the edge to not be crushed and pass through... what.

The final boss is defeated by going on a portal at the right time. This mechanic isn't anywhere else in the game.

Great work from ND again! I personally prefer one of the many source ports available, but the addition of the add-ons menu makes this version definitive for console players.

Por algo existe la QUAKECON. la evolucion de doom hecha perfeccion. El goat de ID software por siempre eterno. Quake viejo y peludo. Eterno y legendario. Nunca dejen de jugar este juego es perfecto.
