This game is so bad compared to Quake 1.

[p0mpous]

Honestly its just worse in every single way, weapons, maps design, enemies. Its just so bad.

I like Quake 2 more over Q1, Q3, and many other modern games.

Lol, you must either be VERY young or have played very few games to make a statement like that. I was actually alive when Quake originally released, I played the shareware with a framerate that could be accurately described as a literal slideshow on our 486, and the gaming press and everybody who played the game at the time had nothing but good things to say about it. This doesn't mean it didn't have its flaws, every game does, but to call it "one of the worst games ever made" is just objectively ludicrous. Only on gaming forums, lol.

I've probably played a lot more games than you and played a lot longer than you also. I got my first PC in 1979, been gaming on PC since then. Just because you have a different opinion doesn't make mine invalid.

Yeah, but your opinions are just flat-out wrong, Q1 was a huge deal back when it came out. It was heavily praised. You must have been living in a bubble at that time. I was a teen and I remember the hype. Just because you didn't like it doesn't mean it wasn't iconic, or legendary. Because it was and that is a fact that has never been disputed by anybody except haters such as yourself. Even then, some haters still acknowledge the contribution it brought to the table. Q1 did a LOT for for video games. It changed the landscape pretty much overnight.

Quake 1 is a masterpiece and to be honest, neither did I liked 2 when it first came out. Barely played it, single or multi player. Over time, however, I've learned to appreciate the game and its not my least liked game in the series anymore (that would be 3). The interconnected levels come out as clever, we didn't had that from ID Software before. Also, now I consider the Strogg, in 2, a sci fi flavor of earlier hellish monsters, so even the theme is more to my liking. Not to mention that they are slightly more unpredictable, and the game is more tactical overall. The textures aren't as great as the 1st, but the level architecture is still very good.

Even if Quake 1 is still my favorite from the franchise, today, I like 2 as much as I like 4... or maybe a tiny bit more than 4, just because of the music. It rocks.

Yes, this game started the real 3 dimensional shooter games. But legendary? As in gameplay? Definitely not. And being amazed? Definitely not. Back in the late 90s I did not know a single person who liked Quake. Everybody stuck with better games like Duke 3d. Quake 2 was the first in the Quake series that anybody I knew actually liked and wanted to play, and pretty much everyone loved it. It got played countless hours at lan parties, along with Duke 3d and the DOOM games, Rise of the Triad, etc.. But never Quake

Sorry but you might feel like this but you are not correct.

Many of us loved Q1 and played modded versions (Team Fortress) at LAN parties. Q1 IS legendary, not just the revolutionary and smooth graphics (especially when GLQuake was released for the lucky people with 3DFX cars), but also the audio, the sound of of a perfectly fired grenade clinking off 2 walls before exploding your buddy, the incredible and ground breaking industrial soundtrack, 9 inch nails! But most importantly the mods like Team Fortress that cement it as legendary.

Literally every online FPS game today descends from the work ID software and modders pioneered on Q1, there are probably a few games today that could learn a thing or two from Q1s reliable LAN server code.

Duke3D was also legendary and brought a different style, more personality and political but ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ was an absolute PITA to get working over a LAN! Often we ended up going back in frustration to multiplayer Quake Team Fortress or some other mod.

i loved both, but literally grew up with Doom 1 and 2 and quake 2. My uncle is to blame.
When I played Quake 1 the first time, I was positively surprised and love now both. But Q2 will always have a special place in my heart. Everyone played it, even years after release.
My Uncle bought a Voodoo and I was always jealous.
