Title
It's hard to top the innovation of Doom, yet Id software found a way with this game by finally making a game in a 3d environment as opposed to a 2d environment with clever tricks to make it seem like it's 3d.

This is accomplished thanks to incorporating platforming elements to the game which no doubt served as inspiration to the Halo franchise throughout the 00s, however I would argue this game made better use of this by having secrets with rewards that went beyond what was offered from the younger franchise. Speaking of items, this game has by far the most unique arsenal of weapons and power ups Id software has brought to the table, this is impressive considering what Doom and Heretic had to offer earlier in the decade. It also seems to have borrowed the idea of obituaries from Heretic which adds a nice touch to an otherwise serious game, this also goes for the Soundtrack which was composed by Trent Reznor of Nine-inch nails fame and remains arguably the best Soundtrack from an id software game.

If you haven't checked this game out, give it a try as it's up there with the likes of Doom and Halo as among the best FPS games.

Quake - Nintendo Switch
This game is still a blast. Great movement controls and just a blast. Also the multiplayer is fantastic. Just a classic game.

I appreciate the legacy and the mechanics are incredibly solid, but ultimately Quake is a drab looking exercise in savescumming full of annoying enemies and cheap gotchas. At least the levels are fairly intuitive for the most part.

Title
nightmare labyrinths. sprawling, focused and concise. disparate realms of enclosed torture, each with their own take on a set of explosion tools and nasty, nasty fiends. the paragon of abstract, less linear first person carnage. beautifully brown. after years of first person shooting, many of which just blur into an indiscernible soup of drab real life murder machines, the drab fantasy realms of quake will eternally cast the shadows in which they reside. forever the most first person shooter. id's finest

    I don't know why, but I've lived my whole life believing that all Quake players play multiplayer and no one touches singleplayer, is that true?
