Emoji are clear indicators an LLM wrote this post. Ugh.

The Quake type of graphics but in HQ makes it look a WHOLE lot like Dusk the game.

Quake is still around. It's a nostalgic game from decades ago, but I'm surprised it still exists

No Switch 2 mouse mode support?

There's no Switch 2 version, it's supported through Switch 1 compatibility.

The Switch port has gyro aiming though.

I bet this is an attempt by Microsoft at trying to win back fans.

I also noticed IShowSpeed and Kai Cenat promoting a Minecraft playthrough, which I would assume is paid for by Microsoft given what they’ve been saying lately: https://youtu.be/IgJru9870_A

We will be inundated with low-effort fan service until morale improves.

While that does seem intuitive, they have been doing this kind of stuff with Quake/Quake 2 for many years now. The nightdive refresh was offered for free to anyone who purchased the originals on steam for instance.

Doesn't seem like it would be very effective. I assume the overlap of Quake fans and people who have sworn off Microsoft forever is large.

It was always crazy to me the Quake team never jumped on the boomer-shooter bandwagon by releasing a new retro Quake... Excited to play this.

Absolutely played the arse off Quake 2 multiplayer when I was a young'un too, weirdly made so many IRL friends from local Quake 2 servers, you don't really get that from modern multiplayer games...

Can one download this to use for the original DOS version?

Does it work with the MS-DOS version?

Not likely. The modern version of the quake engine is heavily modified to handle much larger work loads and flexibility.

Haven't looked at it yet but I suspect these maps probably blow over many memory limits that most DOS machines would have had.
