Yeah, considering that nobody's asking if the fiend has fur but also is covered in blood.

Whoever decided the shamblers were albinos deserves the blame for people assuming they were covered in polar bear fur. That's just not a skin tone you'd assume wasn't fur.

Why does the movement in Quake feel so slippery and awkward? It's as if I'm on ice and constantly overreaching. Maybe it's input lag and maybe it was always like this and I'm just remembering wrong, but is there any way to fix this?

Quake 2 doesn't feel like this (at least not to this extent). Quake 3 doesn't feel like this at all. Doom and all the mods I've tried with it doesn't feel like this at all. Modern FPSs don't feel like this either.

I'm using the GOG "Quake - The Offersing" version (basically GLQuake if I'm not mistaken).

ITT get gud retards not actually acknowledging that quake enemies are spongey as fuck compared to doom.

I love quake but it was definitely an adjustment having common enemies take like 5+ shots with the double barrel. It's even worse in quake 2 which is another reason that game is a chore to play.

Fuck Fiends. They are responsible for 3/4 of my Quake deaths. They hit so god damn hard, and if two trap you, you're pretty much dead or going to take a huge chunk of your life off. My first respond to seeing one is to back tack, and they often catch up with me. It's smarter to side track.

How do you go from this?
