Starting playing this last night and loving it. Only played the original Quake on Sega Saturn back in the day so this is a much better experience
Not really familiar with the story behind the Quake games if I'm honest. Why are we fighting knight and ogres etc in the first game and the Strogg in the other games?
There isn't really a connection story wise between 1 and 2 - later they kind of connected many of the universes of id games from 2 onward with a loose multi-dimensional thing.
Hey Quake 4 wasn't that bad... At least is a was a good game even though it wasn't really "Quake".
Can't say the same for... *gags* Doom 3.

Wow this game is as brown as my underpants.
Love Quake 4 and Doom 3.
Doom 3 gave me horrible nausea from the character bobbing along with the tunnel vision of the torchlight. That and of course the game looked terribly plastic.

I got this on Game pass. Its great playing some deathmatch again on the classic levels
How could you say that about Doom 3?!

Played quake back in the day with with mods still a good old blast!
Worse 2 games of the series lol
I've seen a number of possible fixes for similarly related issues on the Steam community page.
Various launch commands are suggested there as well as disabling the Bethesda movie screen.

I first got the original Quake game free with a copy of Windows 95!
Fantastic to play it again, I'd forgotten how fast it was, brilliant!
The sound track was ace, although I remember playing it with the 1st Placebo Album in the CD Drive, made for a moody game.

Worth calling out for anyone interested that there is still a small but active Quakeworld community. For those who don't know, Quakeworld is the 'proper' multiplayer component of Quake, due to much better netcode etc. It's still being actively developed, and from a technical (non-graphics) perspective for competitive play is the most advanced FPS I've seen.

Sadly, the revitalised edition of Quake is pretty primitive compared to what has been built from the source ports, although obviously it's fine for single player.
