Also, a stealth patch note, we updated the provided version of SDL2 to a pre-release version with Windows 10 gamepad support, meaning if you have Windows 10 you can use 8 Xbox One controllers for 8 player splitscreen.

Weird, because Q1 has 'em.

That's because its the better game WHOA DID I JUST SAY THAT OUT LOUD

Both games have their own very very minor lighting effect. (Checked, Q1 does do it even in software renderer) Q1 has actual muzzle-flash animations as well on most guns, with small polygonal red fire coming out.

I guess they decided the polygonal fire looked too cheesy or something, and couldn't do a detailed enough replacement for Q2? Or it got cut for time or something.

It honestly seems like they were expecting to have the Tome of Power when drafting up the weapons for the classes. That would turn 4 weapons per class into 8 - a much more reasonable number.

yeah the omission of the tome of power makes a huuuge difference, and is very noticeable.

i don't know why they skipped the best power up from Heretic, and frankly maybe THE best powerup in the 2.5D era

Come on now, where's the 9 player splitscreen?

But really this is amazing, I think the most people I've ever splitscreened with was 4 others and that was almost 20 years ago

Quake had a faster run speed but the overall gameplay is a lot slower than Doom 2016.

I was indeed talking about movement, not overall gameplay speed (although I do disagree on this). Running and jumping, and the speed of doing so, is one of the defining components of Quake.

Doom Eternal looks cool but I really want them to just announce "Quake 5: slipgates, a direct sequel to quake 1"

Eternal at least looks to have us exploring more worlds, so may come closer to that lovecraftian hellscape.

Thing was a lot of the old crew at Id were classic metal-heads and D&D nerds into lovecraft. They're all gone, and if the current crew don't care for that thing then it makes sense.

Doom 4 doesn’t really have the Quake 1 vibe either, except for a few moments. Quake is spooky, dark and gothic. Its whole atmosphere is off-kilter and weird and conveys a strong sense of delving into the unknown (somewhat spoiled by how well the unknown is provisioned with ammunition, but what can you do). Doom 4’s plot could fit just as well in a Quake game as a Doom one (I mean, the original games had pretty much exactly the same “plot” to begin with) but the aesthetic approach is, as it probably should be, far more inspired by Doom.

It debatable. The movement speed of the character is definitely faster. But fewer and more bullet spongey monsters slow the overall gameplay loop compared to Doom 2016.

Literally, I'd have allowed that if I could, splitscreen at this point is just a number we can arbitrarily increase. Blood legit doesn't support anymore players, and increasing the player limit would actually break anything to do with triggers and callbacks.

He also made remarks about ~~social justice warriors~~ in his Overwatch review back in 2016. He's just the typical Youtube gamerdude who's a centrist but leans right when pushed a bit.

Quake is some very random different tilesets. It was also pretty abstract back then... some of them aren't really that far off from Doom, others are yeah.

I feel ya. Even at release I was pretty underwhelmed by Quake 2 and time hasn't improved it to me (the great thing about Q2 was the mods). Quake has an interesting weird vibe with some cool weapons while Quake 2 has pretty much boring everything. I don't know the id dev story by heart but as I recall beyond Romero there were some other departures that presumably had the good non-tech ideas.
