Video Description
What is Quake, anyway? This video retrospective of the whole Quake franchise looks at each title and their expansions to see how the series evolved through time, if there is a story or not, and if any of it makes any sense in the end. The video considers the story of Quake from both a fiction and nonfiction perspective in its critique. It pays particular attention to the new MachineGames campaigns included in the Quake remasters. Spoilers, I guess, for both history and lore. This video made with production assistance from Nate Greene. ____TABLE OF CONTENTS____ Intro-- 00:00 Quake 1-- 00:15 Scourge of Armagon-- 27:31 Dissolution of Eternity-- 36:05 Quake 2-- 45:31 The Reckoning-- 1:06:23 Ground Zero-- 1:10:56 Quake 3 / Team Arena-- 1:18:48 Quake 4-- 1:24:19 Dimension of the Past-- 1:41:42 Quake Champions-- 1:45:14 Quake 2 for Nintendo 64-- 1:48:48 Dimension of the Machine-- 1:52:52 Call of the Machine-- 2:05:08 Credits / Special Thanks-- 2:22:49 ======================================== If you enjoyed this video and want to contribute to the production of others like it, please consider donating through the crowdfunding website Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/noahcaldwellgervais
