A great remaster of an FPS masterpiece!

Growing up I never played the original Quake or much of the Doom games. However I did play Quake II on Nintendo 64 and If I had to choose between Doom and Quake I was always a bigger Quake fan.

The enemies and levels are just so creative dripping with atmosphere due to the amazing sound design for the weapons and environments. Just Ranger's grunting alone is an iconic sound effect in gaming. The score is also amazing.

The Lovecraftian and H.R. Giger style is so creative and puts anything we see in modern day gaming to shame. Even on the easy difficulty this is still challenging as all hell. I really miss when Games didn't hand hold and actually respected the player.

Only real flaw is some of the enemy spawn points are a load of BS and those little black blobs known as the Spawn are easily the worst enemy type in the game. Eat a dick you little shits!

You definitely get your money's worth with this game. So many levels and a lot of fun to be had. Just the level select alone is more creative than anything in modern gaming.

Please can we get a Quake reboot done in the style of Doom 2016?
