No one plays Quake on normal fren.
The double barreled should have been the super shotgun II. Still love Quake tho.

Yes, they're gr8. I like Dissolution Of Eternity the most, but Scourge Of Armagon is still pretty good (though the start feels slightly slow).

DOPA isn't really official though, that was some guys at Machine Games going "Hey, Quake's 20th Anniversary is coming up, wasn't that an awesome game? We should make a little episode to celebrate it!" then released it for free.
I think it's a good little episode, I put in Trent Reznor's Ghost as the soundtrack, and found it actually fit pretty well.

I'll upload the soundtrack files for you guys as soon as I get off the shitter, as the commercial releases seem to lack them these days, and some cool anon on /wsg/ recut the Ghosts album to loop properly for gameplay.
The music is like between 20% to 40% of the fun of Quake, depending on the level, and y'all shouldn't be without.

The world of Quake is dark. It's in the design document. Notice the monsters small, if any, eyes. You might not like the art style, but it has thought behind it and is consistent.

Is there room for retro 3D themed games?
Being born at the end of the 2D era, early 3D has a special place in my heart. This whole 8-bit nostalgia culture makes me envious, as everyone and their mother can recognize a bunch of NES inspired graphics as "classic video games", but anything with visible polygons is just "bad graphics".

Also, retro 3D thread.
