My favorite Quake title is being remastered! One of my most nostalgic PC titles from the 90s. Finally a remaster I’m excited about.

    If it’s anything like their other releases for Doom/Quake, then you’re better off using a Source Port instead.

      I played through those releases recently and thought they were fine. They looked great and played great as well.

      I’m not interested in mods or custom wads, just want a fairly vanilla experience to play through the games, so I’m excited for this remaster.

        I didn’t mean to imply that they’re bad ports, just not as fleshed out/mature as the ones the Open Source community has built.

        That and that the Bethesda ports have too much bloat. Nobody cares about signing into Bethesda.net.

        Most have controller support, but not split screen. If you want those features you’re actually are better off with a console port.

          Everything I do is on PC, often times even Steam Deck, so I think the remaster is the perfect opportunity to finally get those features if the source ports don’t have them.
