Better textures, better lightning ( no need for RTX gpu ) improved visuals, QoL improvements and much more
I'm just glad I didn't have to pay shit to play this. So it's just another farted out 'remaster'. It doesn't even have updated models except for weapons and enemies, which granted look pretty damn good, but ammo crates still have the original ugly models. Explosion effects look just as horrible as in the original game. Weapon models are updated, but the Nailgun has the same fucking issue as always, with nails coming out from the sides when firing. Good Lord, are you fucking kidding me, they couldn't even bother to fix that damn problem? Gibbed enemies seem to spawn pieces of their original models too. What kind of fucked up remaster is this? Do yourself a favor and use a source port instead, like QuakeSpasm, preferably QuakeSpasm-Spiked coupled with Copper Quake, which fixes a lot of vanilla Quake's problems, including the goddamn Nailgun projectiles.
I usually love when games are being remastered, but this time I don't get it. You can get similar or even better results with any launcher. 🤔 Apparently, we can play mods, which is cool, but if it doesn't do ANYTHING better than launchers like quakespasm or FTE, then it's completely useless, isn't it?
Imagine seeing those kind of system requirements back in 1996. A steam powered Pentium 133 MHz with 16 MB RAM was a big deal back then. I remember mining coal as a child just so I could play a few hours of Quake back then.
Maybe you didn't like the game, but it's part of the history of videogames, like Duke Nukem 3D or Doom, for those years it had incredible graphics and atmosphere, and it was scary as fuck, one of the best shooters ever.
i love it when people say stupid things like that, "if it wasnt for .... you wouldnt have all the ,,,,,,," yea like they are the only ones that thought of it and everyone else would never go the direction that they did
Quake was one of the first fully 3d fps games, even if the gameplay was shit(which it wasnt) it still would be far from being considered bad, so i dont get it how can someone consider it as a bad game back then, if you try it now and you dont like it i get it but back then it was revolutionary
No if you are a fans of Doom. I am a fans of Doom so I never gave much love to Quake 1. Quake 2 is a different beast. While in Quake 1 you only have 1 or 2 enemies at once, in Doom you could have more than 30.
main problem of quake 1 was the modding community its quite limited compared to doom who have become so endless when zdoom was created they have done shitload of stuff including quake 1 weapons monster packs and mappacks exactly like original game
This was the lowest point of my life. Not going back to the dark ages. Although I admit, curiosity got the better of me then with this "slaughterhouse" game.
Nostalgia is subjective, but if you don't have it in you then I feel very sorry for you. Not taking a dab at you, I don't care I don't even like Quake (I was more of an Unreal Tornament guy), but in this day and age of constant drama and disapointment in game, filled with endless Early Access, Battle Pass and remake... Nostalgia is all we have left to remember "the good old days" and not sunk into our insanity. Now if you're 20 y.o , you can't understand this, of course.
The game, after all those years, it is still playable and it is better than many modern games. It is not perfect (and it is not better than Doom) but it is not a bad game. Unless you want the shinny-new-thing.
what you sayed makes no sense, age of entertainment products can be always fun, i just started watching all 007 movies and even thos old 1960s are good and fun not everything has to be the endgame
I play this first time when i was 7.. in 1997 xd my w95 pc didnt had the best performance so i had to play it with like 20 fps :( now i can play it like it was meant to be ♥
Holy shit. Your life must have not included PC gaming until the later 2k's. Are you young, or did you just not get in to computers/gaming until recently?
Minimum Spec (1080p/60 HZ) Windows 10 Intel Core i5-3570 @3.4 GHz or AMD Ryzen 3 1300X @3.5 GHz NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 TI (2GB) or AMD HD 7750 (1GB) 8GB System RAM well many ppl are still using win 7 32bit. if u hv a rly weak PC today, u still cant play this.
You can download a pirated version of Windows 10. You don't need those particular processors that are recommended here, that's nonsense, and you should already have a 2GB graphics card though these days (I only have 3GB VRAM myself). Another thing about 32bit.

Also, apparently it is not even RTX so I think it is meh.
Worth pirating at least.

Even some newer games are designed like "Quake"... for a reason.
Only NES.
