1 or 2

In terms of interesting level design and movement quake 1 us objectively superior, 2 is slow and terribly boring, not to mention all the back tracking objectives. They arent terrible except for the ground zero expansion pack, which is literally the worst FPS ever released

I do not agree with you, have a nice day.

Save me, Romero.

3.

they play so differently, only proper answer is "both"

yes.

2 is just to incredibly janky.

Weird levels, weird movement, slow as fuck weapon switching which kills the flow. It just feels off.

It has some nice weapons though. The rail gun and the super shotty fucking rule. And the music's great.

But other than that Quake 1 is better in every single way

Yeah, because Quake 2 was the first Quake to not feel like a 3D Doom clone.

Why not both?

>ground zero expansion pack, which is literally the worst FPS ever released
That X-mas expansion for Duke 3d is the worst.

Quake 1 was my first real PC game and man it blew me away.

Wrong. Quake 3 had the best multiplayer. It was made just for that.

>And the music's great.
>But other than that

quake 1 has one of the best ambient soundtracks ever created. quake 2's soundtrack is generic synthesized butt rock.

Quake is a better Doom.

That's bullshit. Don't you be throwing shit at Sonic Mayhem!

quake doesnt feel anything like Doom

only someone who has never played any quake would put this abomination of a game

quake 2 had a hypercompetitive ctf scene and movement can be even faster than q3.

i favor q3 for multiplayer but a lot of people don't know how intense q2's scene was, with ctf and action quake

t. unreal shitter

Q1 soul
Q2 soulless
Q3 how and why is it even quake?
Q4 literally doom 3.5

People who bash Quake 2 MP never learnt how to make the circlejumps on Q2DM1 The Edge. It shits on Q1 netcode and Q3 is too much of a jumppad railfest.

Strogg lore was a stupid idea though, the entire series would be S+ if they didn't change the theme to sci fi.

>Q3 is too much of a jumppad railfest.
It's basically clay shooting

you never even played it any of the Quake's competitively. you don't have a say here.

>Quake 3 bad!
>Quake 2 good!
This is peak contrarianism.

The SP in Quake 1 is much better, Quake 2 had way too much backtracking and just overall get slower since the maps were much larger. Can’t comment on the MP of either since I only played Quake 2 MP for a very short window of time.

Is it though? Lots of people on Yea Forums now and in the past have stated Quake 2 as being their most favorite. How can it be contrarian if so many agree that Quake 2 is their favorite?

1 for architecture. 2 for soundtrack.

>How can it be contrarian if so many agree that Quake 2 is their favorite?

it isn't their favorite, their opinion that it is their favorite is contrarian in the first place

quake1 is indisputably better for sp. look at quaddicted. people make incredible q1 maps to this day, they do not for q2

Contrarian faggots who never understood what made Quake good.

play Arcane Dimensions

Quake 1

1 any day of the week, 2 has no soul

For me, it's Quake Hampions

If they had just not put abilities and made characters different, this game would be alive as fuck today.

They completely missed the audience. You don't mix two things. You go one direction or the other

someone post the image. i need a laugh

That's such a stupid fucking sentiment. The reason the game isn't more alive is that the game has been running like shit and it's been in early access for the past 2 years.
They mixed 2 things and it resulted in a great game. You could write textwalls about why the game didn't take off, that's the last of their issues.

Wrong. All they had to do was give us a map editor. THAT is the only thing we wanted.

>They mixed 2 things and it resulted in a great game.

no, it didn't. it's inferior in all ways to q1-3 multiplayer, 20 years later. what's the point?

wrong

wanted
>map editor
>community servers
>modding ability

etc etc...its full of nothing. they missed the mark completely and never understood what quake multi was about.

oh shit

Q1-3 have been dead for near 20 years. What is your point?

and QC has been dead since arrival

Any have the most recent "So you want to play Quake" infographics

What's that?

>put this abomination of a game
Put it where?

Is there any Open World Quake mods?

There's nothing wrong with Quake 2 but on the other hand there doesn't feel like there's anything special about it
Quake 1 might have be a compromise but at least there feels like there was some vision in it

wow its been a long time since ive seen this girl

Quake 1 is the only Quake game I acknowledge. The others are simply excessively generic space shooters about pointing plasma guns at space aliens in high tech facilities and spaceships which was better done in Unreal and Halo.

Quake is suppose to be about Lovecraftian horror without excessive tentacles and blowing up armored knights in a Gothic castle by using a repeating rocket launcher.

Send in the Japanese arsonists to bring about the Rebirth of the Gods at Bethesda and ID HQ. Only through rebirth after destruction can Quake be saved.
