It might polarize some purists with the drastic changes to enemy behavior and balancing, but personally I feel that it and the compass fix Quake II's biggest flaws (being too easy and having tedious exploration at points) and breathe new life into the game that'll be very welcoming to newcomers and veterans that wish the game would be more challenging alike. The new expansion content, ported N64/PS1 content, crossplatform multiplayer, and other bells and whistles are also excellent. Definitely give this one a look even if you didn't care much for Quake II the first time you played it.
