    “Why make new content when you can cash in on your old content.”

    ~ Seemingly all developers nowadays.

      It’s a free update to a beloved game from 25 years ago and a first release to third most selling platform in the world for a price of a burger. If that’s a cash grab I want more of these.

      I wouldn’t call this a cash in at all - in fact, it’s now easily the best way to play Q2, with impactful (but optional) visual improvements, revamped AI, new accessibility options, both of the original expansion packs, the entire N64-exclusive campaign now available on all platforms for the first time, AND an entirely new campaign created specifically for this remaster.

      There are a lot of low-effort ports out there (looking at you, Rockstar), but this ain’t one of them.

    I hope the multiplayer is well populated. Q2 was my introduction to MP FPS on PC when I was a kid and solidified my love for it to this day. Would love to jump back in to some railgun-only DM servers
