My favorite Quake title is being remastered! One of my most nostalgic PC titles from the 90s. Finally a remaster I’m excited about.
Probably the best quake game with a story. I would argue Quake 3 Arena was the best in terms of popularity but as far as the Quake games with an actual campaign, this is probably the best of them. Quake 4 felt like a remake of Quake 2 but it wasn’t as fun. Quake 2 had a RTX version made as well which could be seen as a remaster. I wonder if its really just a remaster or an actual remake.
The opening cinematic to Quake II is a banger. I love it.
The soundtrack was amazing too. I ripped it to MP3 from the CD years ago when CDs and MP3s were still a thing. I listen to the soundtrack regularly to this day.
Very curious to see how this turns out. Q2 was a childhood game of mine.
Because of this post I just did a little round of Quake 1 (with glQuake) - it’s amazing how much the brain retains … from 1996?!? Shoot this, push this, sink into this to find the secrets ;)
Heck yeah! Always fun to revisit the classics every so often. 😁
@[email protected] @[email protected] While I didn’t particularly enjoy the campaign, I have fond memories of being up in the early hours waiting to download the demo on the old 56k modem as soon as it dropped. Chatting on icq.
Good to see it get some love.
If it’s anything like their other releases for Doom/Quake, then you’re better off using a Source Port instead.
I’d be interested in a modern graphical remake.
I’m wondering how different this will be from Quake II RTX.
