A few days ago we informed you that Quake 2 Remastered appeared in the South Korean age rating system, which could advance an announcement at QuakeCon 2023,

This is wild. I was at the first QuakeCon, when it was called #quakecon and we were playing the Quake 1 test (aka Qtest).

Huh. If it’s running on a new engine, do you think John Romero could remaster Daikatana on the new engine?

That would be a massive undertaking. Daikatana is almost “broken by design”. Quake II simply needs new textures and RT

There’s a lot more that went wrong with Daikatana than just a new engine.

The entire game was overhyped blandness. Just Romero throwing his name out there to get attention than letting the game speak for itself.

I started playing Quake 1 for the first time a few weeks ago, and was surprised how much I enjoyed it. I’m looking forward to this remaster so I can give the second one a try

I’m probably some of the few that really didn’t see what was so special about Quake II. I guess on a technological level, it’s an improvement. But I didn’t care for the change of environment and everything was leading towards another redundant aliens (if the Scrogg can even be called that) vs human army game.

I was hoping Quake 1 had gotten the RTX treatment and remaster.
