 Gameplay was better, mostly because there are some fun Quad slaughters, and you can get infighting going most of the time - including for me the satisfying experience of getting a knight to kill a tarbaby, or a couple knights to kill a hellknight. I tried the same thing again at the end, but a Shambler gibbed my valiant champion knight with one giant bloody hand. Most of the medieval/runic Quake monsters are used for their strengths; gameplay's a bit predictable but challenging enough to be fun. There's no hiding and sniping here, you can blast your way through the map at a fast pace, which adds to the Doom-like feeling. It would have been nice to have the supershotgun earlier. Anyway, while this doesn't really measure up to some of the other maps by the same author, think of it as a giant speedmap with some fun Quad slaughters and an interesting ending setpiece, and you should enjoy this release which will hopefully usher in some more Quake maps after a slow summer. Gameplay was better, mostly because there are some fun Quad slaughters, and you can get infighting going most of the time - including for me the satisfying experience of getting a knight to kill a tarbaby, or a couple knights to kill a hellknight.
