quake is an awesome game, and the mission packs were just as engaging.

i recently found out quake god modded several times into several different games like malice, blood mage and even a doom version, how would you all feel If they added these somehow to quake as an update or even sold separately as individual games?

No, go away Todd. Paid mods are trash.

id Software themselves took what became the two halves that made up Final Doom, which was initially free mods, and hired those guys and made them into paid expansions long before Bethesda were a thing. So you can take your anti-Bethesda drivel and shove it.

Yes they did. Plutonia existed to torture the player, and TNT was garbage. You see, the problem with paid mods? you can get better mods, FOR FREE.

Even something that is free can be crap too, therefore your argument is moot.

Yes, but free crap is free. Therefore something that's 5 bucks and it's crap is worse than free crap.

Taking something that was free and then just making it not free doesn't seem right, so I don't think they should sell them. Adding them as a free addon or something (with the consent of the mod creators), sure. Not sell.

Contrary to what anti-Bethesda trolls who are probably still butthurt over the Doom DRM incident want you to believe, Bethesda, Nerve Software, and some members of id have been doing that with the Unity ports of Doom I and II; they've gotten in touch with some mod creators and ask them to have their work featured as free add-ons for the Doom Unity ports and even gave some of them widescreen improvements.

There is place for both commercial expansion packs and free mods.

Thank you. Even Quake had unofficial commercial expansions before Bethesda existed.
