How the hell did they get away with using this name for the final boss?

How the hell did they get away with using this name for the final boss?

Also, fuck the people who think the singleplayer for this game isn't great.

Shit boss thoughy, but yeah, SP has its moments and i think its better than Q2.

Why not play the better game?

Stained glass tities won't automatically make game better.

If filename is the boss, Niggurath is a lovecraft thing. Granted, lovecraft did name a cat Niggerman in one of his books

The Black Goat of the Woods with a Thousand Young

>looks better
>plays better
>weapons are more fun
>longer
>actual varied and cohesive level design instead of a collection of maps
>one of the greatest soundtracks ever put into a video game
Just admit it.

Also why the fuck doesn't the steam version have the original soundtrack? One created by NIN.

Unreal was always the better SP experience. Quake's forte was the MP.

>wow wiw wey wuwew wis wame wow whe winaw woss wouwds wike aw N wowd

when I was a kid and played quake I thought it supposed to resemble a spooky tree

do i need any essential mods or should i just get unreal gold?

Just get Unreal Gold, no mods are necessary.

this is a Japanese Shub Niggurath

I believe Lovecraft is free domain.

it is. The old copyright licenses were mere 50 years, tops.

Disney is fucking panicking at the moment, since even Mickey Mouse is on the verge of becoming open domain.

What is the name of the doujin please

You need this. Or maybe not strictly need, but it makes the game much prettier - AA, AF, high resolutions, widescreen support.
And I also recommend the high res textures.

I have fapped to this.

I've fapped to this and the sequel so many times, I could have a thousand young at this point

Yeah why slam a lovecraftian name on something that doesnt respresent her the slightest.

Ane Narumono, An Elder Sister.

It got a non-H manga serial adaptation just couple weeks ago

Ane Narumono

The cat was called Nigger Man. Get it straight. Also, here's his thoughts on negroids.

You have blessed me on this day. Your gift will not be soon forgotten.
*unzips dick*

>niggers are the bridge between man and beast

You know, it all makes sense....

Apparently it was so popular there's going to be a non h-manga adaption

With H-Manga conclusions after the blueballing

Lovecraft telling it straight.

How that shit passed is beyond me.

>this shit gets an adaption
>custom zombie girl doesn't

the first chapter's already out.

If there's one thing that upsets me about japan it's this. Taking shit like lovecraftian horrors and turning them into attractive anime girls. not like there's anything I can do about it but it triggers my autism to no end

>how that shit passed was beyond me
It was 1912.

God damn what a savage.

>non-H
[image of drake turning away in disgust]

>write atavistic poetry to show how backwards niggers are

BRAVO HOWARD

it triggers my benis, so it's alright

Oh my bad I'm retarded excuse me

I wanted to talk about Quake.

Mickey Mouse and all the rest of the shit was renewed with the current shitty copyright law ages ago, you retarded niggu? Lovecraft is only open domain because his family never set up a company to perpetuate copyright on his shit.

Too bad.

Cohesive level design is overrated as fuck and I wish it never became a mainstay of FPS campaigns. Hopefully Romero will be able to show modern audiences the appeal of short and standalone levels and popularize it once more.

You will certainly enjoy this video, then:

Cohesive is just better.

What is Sandy Petersen doing these days anyway? Is he alive?

Quake "bosses" suck. Literally the only flaw in the game.

>porn gets a pg adaptation
Amazing.

More importantly, why the fuck was it such a lame boss?

You literally kill it by telefragging it.

The one in the first episode was kind of cool, with the environmental trigger to kill it off.

Telefragging it is amazing but the problem that's the entire fight. The final boss literally cannot defend itself and thus there's zero challenge.

Dark Places > Tenebrae

because it's an eldritch god, which can not be hurt any other way.

That being said, Q1 has very underwhelming "bosses"

>love the look of Quake in all the screenshots
>Steam version takes away OSTs
>2 dumb to emulate DOS
>cant get the source ports to work
JUST

use quakespasm, torrent the Quake CD, rip the tracks from it

also launch quakespasm with the -fitzquake parameter

just look up fucking source-ports, nigga.
I slapped some on the Steam versions of Q1 and 2, and got the full experience + higher resolution.

Still the best.

what does the fitzquake parameter do?

makes it more compatible with old quake

quakespasm can't even play quake demos out of the box for example

isn't there a midi version of the soundtrack in the pak file?

Quake does not use Midi music.

The actual parameter is -fitz, and among other things, it restores the demo that plays when you open the game which allows you to hear the main theme.

It can play demos without the parameter, they just don't autoplay at the start. The parameter doesn't do much beside a bunch of superficial stuff such as the one I mentioned and restoring Fitzquake's quit game confirmation.

>The actual parameter is -fitz
shit you're right, i don't have my quake installation to check

>unzips dick

So how do I enter this parameter?

when I wanted to play winquake with the soundtrack i used these guides
steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=119489135 (for soundtrack dl)
steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=113399618
you gotta put the music files in the quake directory etc

add the game to your steam library and check its properties, create a shortcut and check its properties, or create a bat file

Might have been confusing it with Hexen 2 then.

Make a shortcut to the Quakespasm .exe, open the properties of the shortcut, and add it to the end of the Target field

I finally played Unreal from beginning to end last month and it is vastly inferior to Quake 1. There are very few enemies and half of them aren't any fun to fight. The weapons are unbalanced: the flak cannon and asmd are basically all you need, the 8ball and the rifle are underpowered (even with headshots) and the thyridium gun is a joke.

The campaign tries to be a big cohesive adventure but suffers from some old school maze like level design, which means you'll get lost at some point or another not knowing how to proceed, which kills the pace of the game. It is also too long for its own good.

I remember being impressed by the atmosphere and the music when it came out, and that's really the part that's aged the best, but as a whole the game is nothing special. Turning the franchise into an arena shooter was definitely the right decision.

Unreal 2 plays even worse, still pretty though

I think there's something truly special about this game if I'm playing it in 2016 and I still try to move my head in real life to dodge grenades.

?

I'm dling the gog release
is it good

Because for some reason it crashes after I start the game even though I played a few months ago with no problem

My dad calls it the "bleeding tree"

Your dad is fucking retard

His dad is kind of right. Shub Niggurath resembles a tree. A really fucked up tree

>Stuart Brown will never whisper sweet things in your ear

Duke is the most overrated retro fps.

Quakespasm>everything else

This fucker gave me nightmares.

...

HUUH

>muh lovecraft

Because I already did a couple days ago, DOOM has got me in old FPS binge mood.

The only good thing to come out of D44M.

I can already hearcthe sherr amazement and confusement when 00s kids try to finish OG Doom. Especially from Shores Of Hell forward, it's just deliciously mean.

227i is all you need.

>tfw no quakespasmworld
all the quakeworld source ports suck ass

What is the lore behind this thing anyway? I never understood wtf was going on when I got there.

enslaved leader of intelligent xen life

EAT SHIT AND DIE

old ID wasn't good at final bosses

Spider Mastermind?
Way less threatening than the Cyberdemon and could be one shot by the BFG.

Icon of Sin?
A static wall enemy spawner that used the shittiest mechanic of riding an elevator to kill it.

Shub-Niggurath is hardly even a boss.

It's just saddening that modders came up with better bosses.

Arcane Dimensions has some very good mini-bosses.

Can't do that in quake, you can only interact with feces in douk.

Lovecraft's work is public domain or treated as such by whoever has it now..
