I expected so much more from the developers iD and their once Excellent IP Quake. This is just another f2p generic shooter with nothing to add. In an era of saturation this game is not going to stand out at all. It is sad to see the Quake IP mishandled and most likely doomed to play out in obscure mediocrity. The game feels so uninspired and is centered around the core f2p design that we have all come to know and (lots of us) despise. For a gamer who was modding Quake 1 before it was even 3D accelerated it hurts to see the once pioneers and innovators of gaming become completely consumed by now derivative, and frankly unimaginative, industry standards. iD should have made a full priced game that they could be proud of where everyone just has everything (or works towards it without having to pay instead of rent heroes) so that Quake, hopefully, wouldn't have turned out like this.

If you want to add another generic f2p shooter to your library that brings nothing new to the table go ahead and buy this but say goodbye to Quake being an industry leading IP as it is most assuredly now an industry following one. I would recommend skipping it for something more inspired.
