Is this sort of subversion really a problem? I mean you have flat pieces of wall that are secret doors. I can't think of any time i was frustrated by some decorative door - quite the opposite - on the rare occasion Ive been tricked into thinking a big centerpiece door would open, only to realize at the end it was a red herring, i've enjoyed having my expectation subverted.

I like a lot of the more surreal maps people have created, and uncanny cities (in general) play to that strength of quake.

>you could still retain power/effects even though the game tells you it dropped the card as long as you do things in a certain order and buffer with specific materials

Yeah, I thought it was nice how the game gives no explanation whatsoever about this needlessly complex mechanism, also how most items do literally nothing and some combinations are actually counterproductive. When I first read a guide that actually spelled out what I was supposed to do I was astonished, there's a 0% chance you could ever figure that out by trial and error.
