3+ ogres in every single room starts to wear thin pretty quickly. I get that they finally had a physics engine and true 3D environments unlike DooM and they needed to show those things off but it's just not nearly as fun.

isn't there some trick to beating ogres easily? do they have a weakness? i can't remember.
Agreed. Episode 4 is the best because it uses zombies as the common enemy instead. Quake could be vastly improved by making both the player and the enemies do double damage at all times.
Quad damage.
I never had trouble with ogres. Just dodge their grenades, or bait them into a chainsaw attack.
Quickest way to get them is two rockets or four SSG blasts.
yeah, i think the strat i heard for these guys was to bait the chainsaw attack.
circle strafe while doing that if you can
Shooting them
you can melt ogres with the nailgun. shambies gotta be killed with the lightning gun and rockets.
Uh shamblers take half damage from explosives
you can fire off two grenade in 0.6 seconds, and get both back from a backpack dropped by the ogre
don't they have some resistance to grenades? or is that shamblers?
quake's single player sucks
>all episodes are brown castles
>enemy variety is 0
>there are only 2 boss battles in the entire game and they both suck
The game can be completed in a couple of hours, the mission packs are not particularly good either.

My experience was I would walk into an empty room
Take a few steps forward
Enemies teleport into the room behind me
Every fricking time
I swear doombabies are just utter dogshit at any other FPS they touch and then blame it on it playing differently from doom
you're right
listen homosexual. I've played and beaten the game on Nightmare both in the sourceports (faster AI) and the gay ass Kex engine remaster where it drops your health to 50.
Maybe uhhh, if the ogres were female and you could frick them instead of killing them it wouldn't be so boring.
But anyways, it's a boring fricking game.
First expansion pack was way better because more weapons and enemies with less health.
>listen homosexual.
>First expansion pack was way better because it's more like Doom
ah yes, classic doombaby opinion
Embarrassing zoomer post.
>b-but I mechanically beat the game...

Multiplayer was literally an afterthought for Doom and didn't even exist in Wolfenstein and Keen, zoomie.
DOOM II made all of their previous games irrelevant, let’s be real.
Doom 2 has garbage level design.
quake can be beaten in a few hours even if you take your long ass time.
quake is shit let's be real, i love it as a game but i never play it. doom is simply better and
Weapons in Quake suck ass, you can see they turned the game into an FPS very late into the development stage. Enemies are OK, nothing groundbreaking
Quake doesn't seem as impressive anymore because other games built on it making drastic improvements. Anything you see in FPS games today was done by Quake first in one way or another. Heck, Overwatch 2 is something from one of the Quake games (which is what Team Fortress is).
having good fun in Quake really depends on having good levels
truth is original levels used to blow my mind in 90s, but there are better options now, and today they just leave an "OK" impression
