Quake II: Once Controversial, Now a Beloved Sequel | EDC
In this video, we take a look into the identity crisis sequel, Quake II. When it came out, it had a mixed reception where some loved it and some hated it. But with the Quake II (2023) remaster by Nightdive Studios being released, opinions have turned a 180 and is now loved by most people. But what do I think about Quake 2? Well sit tight, watch and enjoy…

How Are the Portal and Half-life Games Connected?
มุมมอง 96Kปีที่แล้ว
In this video analysis, I try to find the references in how both universes acknowledge each other and how they are connected. It's a question that no one has really tried answering in video format. So I thought it would be a good opportunity for me to do something about that. But it does bear the question: how are the Half-life and Portal games connected?!

Postal 1 is one of the darkest games ever made and the most awkward start to a franchise. Originally released on November 14, 1997, Postal fans consider this to be the black sheep of the series.

imo half life and portal arent in the same universe, portal is just too goofy
So something kinda funny. I was playing the android port while I was at work and it just so happens where I work is called EZ Mart. I almost shit my pants when I saw this
What a coincidence...
Great video
I make better content now, but thank you this video isn't that bad in retrospect
I hate how I found your channel only recently. Your editing and commentary is amazing! Only thing I'll say is don't disrespect the flamethrower man!
Hey better late than never! I hope I can make more Postal videos and if you haven't yet, I made another video about Postal with Special Delivery and Super Postal. Glad to hear your positive feedback! P.S. apologies for Flamethrower hate
When the dude said “Proudly made in the USA baby” for the 2846th million time in a row it made me regret nothing fr fr
What’s crazy is that these normal 9-5 employees don’t even know
love your prank calls, like something avgn did in ghostbusters video
That phone call was actually scripted. These are real 💀
@ElephantsDoingCrack oh yeah didnt the guitar guy was voicing the vacum caller?
@@latviandragon2718 yeah he was. I have gotten comments about these prank calls and people being like "Stop doing that, they just wanna go on break." I don't get why, I love doing them.
That's crazy
Man there just trying to make it to lunch let them be
WHAT A GOOD VIDEO BUT NOT POSTAL 2? I’m waiting for the second video on my franchise , Elephant 🤨
In due time... In due time... I have some projects that I am currently doing, but I have some ideas in my head for Postal 2. I made two videos about Postal but I am sure you saw Special Delivery/Super Postal already.
@@ElephantsDoingCrack yes and it was wonderful! So was this video! I love the quake 2 remaster
"Elephants Doing Crack"💀
EDC445
In my opinion, they should have named "War strogg" then named it "Quake 2"
LOL yeah fuck it, just use both of the words
17:14 Yo I think the people ‘falling from the sky’ is a commentary on the suicide rates in Japan. Especially how they’re by buildings you can’t see the tops of.
That's a good one actually
@@ElephantsDoingCrack Yea, keep up the good work man. Love to see more people like Postal
@@chrisrosales6362 i hope to get around to Postal 2, but I have some other projects right now
The version of Postal 1 on Steam and GOG comes with Special Delivery. So I guess a lot of people forget that it's an expansion, since it's just integrated into the game.
Yeah man totally and you can all of the campaigns at once
4:48 what game is this? a mix between the two games is interesting
The Portal Beta?
Thx@@ElephantsDoingCrack
Me on a normal Monday morning at approximately 1:30am: “sure do hope I don’t come across an elephant on crack talking about the cult classic game quake II and the controversies around it along with its rise into a vintage hit” … “Oh dear god…”
i think no episode three because they just don't do 3
Quake 2 did not need the compass , modern baby gamers grown up crap games baby handholding shit games like doom eternal or call of duty or linear AF turd games like anything from the studio "From soft" (bar latest AC) needed the compass.
I wouldn't call the remaster "enchanced" they made it easier and thats bad, a lot of dumb decisions like having shield be automatic and making it default were worthy of whoever decided that being fired. Quake 2 was superior to quake 1 already in gameplay on every level despite ID not having services of some of their most talented people like Sandy Peteresen(not Romero because he didn't do anything of note after doom 1) i dunno why you are trying to push this false narrative of Quake 2 being disliked or causing a split because it was universally liked, people considered it better then Unreal and close to Half life for some time. I lived trough that time so don't try to BS me. It fixed a lot of the boring combat and maps that plague the first two episodes of Quake 1(all Romero ones being terrible soulless and easy like suited for the modern gaming jurno) and was just a big improvement on the weapons front where quake 1 was stale AF for a lot of people at the time. If the remaster did anything right tho its the new episodes they are not the lame ass boring affair that the ones for quake 1s remaster were but peak Quake 2.
That is a bit extreme calling for someone to be "fired." Especially since it really isn't that big of a deal. I feel like a lot of these changes were for the best for a modern audience and just because Quake 2 kinda needed them. But if you don't like the remaster, just go play the OG version. The remaster made me wanna go back to it and that is totally fine. Plus I am already getting a ton of comments from people who are saying "No one ever hated this game!" And other comments saying "The only people who like this game are femboy zoomers." So I like to think I did something right when I just get this backlash from both sides. Plus, a lot this stuff is kinda just opinions, a lot of people still prefer Quake 1 over Quake 2 even after the remaster (but not to say they hate Quake 2). But now I love Quake 2, I don't hate this game anymore. Nothing to debate for me. I love this game.
Hahahaha! IS TIM THERE? 😅😂
22:06 That was a smooth transition *chef kiss*
Thank you so much! There were a lot of transitions in this video where I was like "I have to watch that again." Glad to know I did a good job
cant believe the postal dude shot scout tf2
It is also linked to tf2
Istarted playing Quake 2 and I hated it, I couldn't stand the "Loading...", the long levels and the total lack of fantasy horror. I paid for the game so I was invested in finishing it. By the end, it was my favourite game of all. I think putting that game in the Quake series was an error. It was the source of my initial hate, I was expecting a Quake game and I wouldn't have had the same resistance to the changes if it had been called anything else. I still miss the lovecraftian fantasy horror theme though.
1. Should have been in the video, but the railgun is directly inspired from Arnold Schwarzenegger's movie Eraser. You'll know it when you see it. Also it's not a laser weapon it's a ultra high velocity projectile weapon. 2. The final boss fight might be easy with invulnerability on, but 10yo me was so terrified of coming out of the underground hideout, it probably took me an hour to beat the Makron. The best defense is psychological terror. And that thing's big, loud and scary. 3. For me personally the most unpleasant enemy to deal with was the Berserker. I didn't like the way he was coming at me. 4. Multiplayer Q2 was a staple of dorm life in college. That and HL multiplayer and CS 1.5. It was good back in the day. 5. Quest markers ruin games.
Thank you so much for this comment, very interesting to read. 1. For the railgun, damn that would have been a good idea. If I ever cover the Quake 2 expansions I will try to throw those facts in there someway. 2. I remember I kinda struggled too with the makron when I first played it a couple of years back. I love the makron's design, it is pretty cool. 3. Berserkers are kinda annoying enemies, them jumping at you and flying away in the air. But yeah they are cool and I still like them. 4. Yeah man I used to play Unreal Tournament and Half-Life 1 LAN parties with my family. 5. Yes and no. Markers can help players where to go and explore before going to the main objective. However, they shouldn't being holding your hand the whole time. In Quake 2, I felt like it needed it since the level design can be confusing sometimes and the compass helps out with that problem. But if people don't like it, they can just not use it. It's completely fine. Thanks again for the comment 🙏
@@ElephantsDoingCrack 1. I actually only started playing those recently. Didn't have them back in the day. So far I'm happy. Feels like more Quake II, which is all I really want of it. 2. I love it too omg :3 3. True, they are effective enemies. I just hate them cause they kick my ass lmao 5. I suppose I'm the kind of Quake obsessed person who could draw you a map of all the levels. I like them being complicated. I don't like it when the game's too linear and it feels like I already know where I need to go, but maybe that's just me 👍

I was playing this game 20 years ago..the end of the game is crazy

Portal is good still 💪
I beat special delivery in 2 mins and Super postal in 3 (both are WRs) :D
That is incredible!
Ymbro you fking lisp is annoying af. Never make a fking video again u neek
Valve could legit combine a half-life 3 and portal 3. Have some snarky name about the number 3. Have 2 chapters, 1 with Gordon as the main protagonist, continue the story where it left off with more portal references, maybe even have him go to an early aperture science and/or the spot Chel enters the surface. Have some sort of story reason explaining why Gordon was there and what is goal is (the borealis probably) and end half-life satisfyingly but leaving the door open for Chel to finish what Gordon started. Have gman say some cryptic shit and have "chapter 2" show the future when Chel exists, have her finish whatever story reason Gordon was there (probably the borealis or something) have chel use the portal gun in a more open world setting with confined story beat sections for puzzles. Then have her finish where Gordon left off and finish whatever other portal story we needed (probably would be something connected to Chels parents since they were teased so much, maybe the worked on the borealis!! Idfk) wrap it all up with a gman monolog. Both fanbases get thier 3rd game, both stories end properly, and it connects all the dots that haven't been fully connected in thier joint universe. This is all random garbage. Obviously something proper, but something in this vein could be done.
5:02 lol when I played this as a kid my mom came storming in as this was blasting on the speakers "ARE YOU LISTENING TO HILTER?!?!" and I had to explain no no this is a scifi game and it's english
Awesome game
37:38 ahahahahahhahahaha
I think it's two big things for the players who says it's the worst: 1. They get bored, so then their deaths feel more frustrating than they otherwise would. 2. This is their time playing against an enemy where you have to backpedal and shoot while remembering what's behind you.
18:07 i dont know i just fucking hate portals community.
How do they not have the hit selling video game Postal
Good thing Ruby hasn't made Quake his whole schtick, or it'd be really embarrassing for him to get his arse walked all over in Quake Deathmatch.
I mean he did win the 1v1...
They dont make games like this anymore wait...
wait...

You start by saying how you don’t understand how a comedy scene and a dramatic scene can exist in the same universe. You know that’s how real life works? There are both horrible atrocities and also light hearted fun happening on earth every day.
