/cough. You know absolutely nothing about my past work because i've never said anything. I've been in this game the best part of 3 decades, so whether your statement is true or false the fact is it is supposition. Mr I lack the ingenuity to think of a game so i'll rip off a film.
As for the ID/Raven thing. Quake is a franchise. It wouldn't matter if I wrote it, Quake is Quake. If they had changed the formula I would expect it to be called Doom, or Hexen, or Medal of Honour.
Quake meens deathmatches, Quake deathmatches meens imblanaced power ups and imbalanced power ups meens controlling the map wins. It's like RTS games in that the winner is the first to gain control - everything after the first power up rush and frag is just the result being played out. It's pacman with guns.
Maybe you enjoy that, but I dont, so I ignore anything with the big word "Quake" on the box. I still enjoy other games in the Quake engine, it's a good engine, I just never liked Pacman and guns havn't changed that.
