The whole mod looks and feels as if Quake has grown up together with us in those 25 years, has become stronger, cleverer, and evolved in its own style, and I just can't stop saying 'thank yous' to Simon O'Callaghan (by the way - what's happened to his website simonoccom?) and the other members of this great modding team. A true and canonical Quake experience brought into the 2020s with great and modern level art / level design, new yet canonic monsters, new weapons - which are also mind-blowing yet so true. This one's simply the best: the largest one, the prettiest one, the most user-friendly one, I can keep going forever. Of what I've been able to download and test in the recent year, my top chart of singleplayer Quake mods would look like this: To start with, there is a very good review of the mods keeping Quake alive in 2017 by Dominic Tarason at Kotaku, the only minor flaw I see about it is that he sometimes mixes the concepts of true modifications and map packs created for those mods - which are also great by the way but the user will kind of get to them occasionally if he or she starts playing the actual mod.Īt the moment, the place I normally look for Quake mods is the Mod DB, but there are a lot of modifications there which are just lacking new information, so that's why I would probably ask the more experienced members of this subreddit to contribute to the discussion. I think what the community lacks is a sort of a hub to discuss the new promising mods - as well as to keep track of the newest developments to the existing mods, so let's try it right here.

I haven't really seen a review of them to help the oldschool Quakers who haven't heard much about the recent developments rediscover their favourite game.

I'm obsessed with Quake in the recent couple of years - just as I was 25 years ago, but now it's mostly thanks to several Quake mods, which I assume many of you know and play.

Hi everyone, I searched this subreddit for such a topic and sadly didn't find much.
