    I think it's specifically egregious given Quake's history with speedrunning. The techniques that early Quake Done Quick runners were using rely on knowledge of the Deep Weirdness of the actual game. Any copy of the game that can't reproduce those strange interactions isn't a copy of the game at all.

    not to offer any Gamer hot takes but any game with a sprint function would be better if that was just the normal movement speed. once again the farther away from Quake games become the worse they get

    Like, Mario 64 gets so much credit for revolutionizing 3D video games, but Quake came out at the same time, and arguably aged better/feels more like a modern day game.

    Quake is 30 years old today. It certainly snuck up on me but, man, what a remarkable game. Quake started DF Retro in the first place and then helped me reboot it five years ago. It will always hold a special place in my heart. youtu.be/0KxRXZhQuY8?...

    This is what "research" looks like for many paper-producing groups or individuals, in light of the recent advances in LLMs/AI systems. PSA: this may look tempting! But this is not good, this is not research, and, very much like when I tried to play Quake 3 back in the day, this will not end well.

    Anyone here ever play an old iOS game called Eliminate Pro? It was a neat deathmatch FPS from 2009. Well, turns out it ran on a version of id Tech 3 - even I could tell at the time - which means with some elbow grease, you can load its game data in Quake 3 Arena.

    For those who haven't played Quake since the 90s, the scene has undergone an amazing renaissance. There's always been good Quake mods, but it feels like the release of Arcane Dimensions in 2015 revitalized everything. Since then, Nightdive have remastered the game and Machinegames have expanded it.
