The Setup
Some people say that Quake is dead or that Quake can't be revived. They've been saying this for years.
Behind every belief, you have to have a set of reasons. So the above statement "Quake is dead", what are the reasons for this?
Quake is "dead" for a lot of various reasons. But the gameplay is solid and is the best there is of any FPS game. So it isn't dead due to the gameplay.
I view and have always viewed Quake as a game not worth playing. Both the multiplayer and the single player. I'll get to that [sort of].
So I actually have the opposite point of view of most people. I think Quake sucks. But that isn't quite true, I think Quake sucks now.
So when someone says to me something about the state of the game ("Quake is dead", "we only have 3 or 4 busy servers", etc.), my response in my head is "No shit. Look at everything." But I never say this!
I think Quake is getting closer to a game worth playing. But it still has a bridge or 2 to cross.
Here is the main problem with Quake, it's this next question ...
The real question ...
Would you recommend Quake to a friend? My answer is no, by the way. But I expect this answer to change later in the year.
What is your answer and why or why not?
