“I came across this at a very sad point in my life, it was on a hard drive on a vintage computer I bought off Amazon,” Marshall explains on the expansion’s GitHub page. “Literally this essentially saved my life, I was going through a divorce and just happen[ing] to come across something like this was insane.”
I forgot this game even existed. It wasn’t very good tbh
I played it recently, and enjoyed it. It wasn’t quite what I wanted out of a quake game, but as a standalone sci-fi horror game, it’s a thoroughly fun romp
I replay it every now and then as a part of my normal rotation. I still can never remember what the final boss is like. The mid game tower boss is much more memorable. The core problem with Q4 is it had an idenity crisis. It was trying to be a classic Quake game, a CoD-like and a Halo-like all at the same time.
No way, that game was awesome! It was actually my first quake game and the story and bosses were really cool. The scene where you’re captured was so cool and brutal.
The Strogg were such a good enemy. Loved the idea that they used body parts of enemies to make their soldiers. I’d love to see that concept with modern graphica.
Yeah exactly! It was shocking and cool to see an alien species harvesting humans and other animals. The Strogg seemed like a real alien military society. Half Life 2 is maybe a bit similar but I have to assume you’ve played it :)
Honestly, I wonder who would win. The strogg or the Combine. I feel the strogg with how they could make use of the bodies of Combine soldiers.
I dunno man, the combine have access to portals and other dimensions and shit. Either way I’d pay to see that fight!
