    Hot dang! It's another Quake vid! I love the voice over in this one.
    "These armor-plated, techno-advanced scorpion creatures are huge and pissed. They carry dual nail guns for claws to get your attention, but get too close and you'll have a stinger in your face. Their favorite activities include watching the sunset, long walks on the beach, and fucking your shit up."

    A very nice addition to the videos.
    Fun fact about the fiends: they do have eyes, but they're blind. But more interesting, the eyes are on the side of their head, which marks the fiends as prey - not predator, who have their eyes on the front of their head. like you can see with gremlins.
    Yes, in the Dreamlands, fiends are just deadly prey. Like moose in Canada.

    Deathknight needs to be a coop protagonist in a Quake 1 sequel, with his own gameplay and set of weapons/spells like a flame thrower instead of lighting gun but still have nailguns and shotguns.... asymmetrical coop with map puzzles requiring a dire orb and fire immunity to navigate.

    11:42 I remember that particular detail about grunts from the manual. It did a lot to ensure that these otherwise ordinary enemies were very memorable.

    As for add-ons: SyncError, the lore guy behind Quake, who resides in the official discord server of Quake confirmed that all of them are non-canon, including the latest MachineGames additions included in the remasters of both Quakes respectively

    • @KonigDesTodes
      @KonigDesTodes Před měsícem +16

      Specifically, he said that the *events* are not canon, but the locations and characters are / may be. However, one thing to note about canonity and id games is that... every game tends to partially retcon previous releases. Like Doom 2's manual changing how Doomguy returns to Earth (from a portal in Doom 1, to a spaceship in Doom 2). So, one can easily argue that they're just not canon to Quake Champions, but who knows whether the next release(s) will treat them - if they ever come.

    My personal head canon is that the ogres and death knights hate each other. One uses the finesse of the blade and arcane magic, the other using brutal machines and explosives. I know that both have attacks that hit a wide range, and they're the most common enemies in the game, so it makes sense they'd infight often, but whenever I see it happen, I like to imagine there''s something deeper going on there.

    The Phantom Swordsmen really could have the potential for their corpses to be taken for use by players as an alternative melee weapon after killing them.
    And seriously, no explicit mention about the Hell Spawn from Dissolution of Eternity? They are worse overall.

    I really enjoyed having Armagon as a new boss in Quake. Chthon and Shub-Niggurath were neat puzzle based bosses but I really enjoy taking down the big baddies with my own weaponry instead of having to telefrag or zap them. And I appreciated the similarities to the Strogg.

    • @lechumqc7910
      @lechumqc7910  Před měsícem +3

      I would need to think more about that; it's an interesting question! Both are scary, but in different ways. Quake enemies are scary more in the traditional sense but they want to kill you quickly. On the other hand, the Strogg are horrifying because of their methods and the suffering they inflict. Both eldritch and Strogg enemies are numerous, but despite the Strogg's vast numbers, it seems the Dreamland holds far more creatures than the Strogg could ever gather (without forgetting all the God Like entity that live inside the Dreamland). But our world is more difficult for eldritch entities to reach than for the Strogg. 🤔
