Not the hellspawn people made it out to be, and in a much better place than it's initial launch period (or even during early covid).
Despite what most will tell you, hero abilities arnt what ruined Quake. The lack of mod tools, dedicated servers, or even continuous lobbies doomed this game from the start.

Absoloutely Fantastic multiplayer, minus being a hero shooter. Updates are frequently updated, loads of maps, Veteran FPS Skill based Shooter, made for Adults and not children. This is the highest end spectrum for FPS multiplayer gaming! Still getting frequent updates and new maps etc. They must recongize battlepass are shit and should stop it at once as you cannot even see your character in 3rd person too. Hey Dev's if you remade and removed all the stats and and hero skills your audiance would far exceed expectations.
The gameplay itself is faithful to past Quake games with fast arena styled FPS action. The new abilities tend to be a bit on the overpowered side but thankfully do not completely ruin the matches. Classic quake maps are always a welcome addition.
The major problem with this game however is the amount of downtime one will encounter when trying to play the game. For every 10 minutes of gameplay there are at least 10 minutes of load times, menus, result screens and matchmaking that make this game a chore to play. After a match concludes, rather than start another match the game will send you back to the main menu and make you start searching to jump in again. It kills the pace of the game completely. There is also a chance of the game just disconnecting you, placing you into the wrong servers or just outright crashing.
