Welcome to Part 1 of our deep dive into Quake 4, where we explore the evolving battlefield in the relentless war against the Strogg. In this segment, we'll compare the current situation to the events of Quake 2, setting the stage for the new challenges and adversaries ahead. Get ready to meet our favorite badass, Matthew Kane, as he joins his new squad. We'll be following Kane's journey from the very beginning, detailing his initial missions and the crucial role he plays in this renewed conflict. Strap in as we embark on this action-packed adventure to see how Kane and his squad navigate the treacherous terrains of Stroggos, fighting to turn the tide in this epic battle.
We've utilized recorded footage from Doom 3 to recreate scenes not explicitly shown in Quake 4, leveraging the fact that both games share the same engine. Additionally, as we'll explore in the next episode, there's an intriguing, albeit unconfirmed, theory that Quake 4 initially had plans to bridge its story with that of Doom 3. However, these plans would have been shelved, possibly due to the mixed reception of Quake 4 at its release.

My coffee was hot when I opened this video. With intention of just seeing what's up, I ended up losing my self within this masterpiece... and yes, my coffee grew cold.
That’s a hell of a compliment
Fingers crossed for a Quake 5 continuation of Stroggs and related things from Quake 1 and so forth!
Putting respect on Private Johann Strauss' name. Well done.
We cannot afford to let his name die. ^^
Awesome to see a channel doing Quake lore and especially Quake 4, wish this franchise got the Doom 2016 treatment.
Quake 4 is one of my favorite video games of all time. Each year I take the pilgrimage and do a playthrough of this fantastic game. It is criminally underrated - it's the best horror FPS ever imo.
I appreciate the custom-made in-game footage. Masterfully crafted video!
Edit: The portrayal of the lore in this video is deeper than the actual lore of the game
One thing I love about those old games is the sheer liberty you have with those engines and their console commands ^^
And Doom 3 is my favorite Doom. This man made videos on that game too. Such a chad.
The production quality for your videos is phenomenal. I thought I was listening to an official documentary about Quake’s story from the studio.
Well done
Wonder if the "Mar's riots" is actually the cover-up story for Doom 3 in-universe. Bit of a stretch, but maybe Voss was "buried alive and tortured repeatedly" in Hell. Since time flows differently, he spent six months there, however time flows differently in hell, and barely a few days went by on Mars. He then was rescued when the fleet arrived and secured the area and sealed off the underground. Could be he had orders to keep silent about it, hence why nobody knows much about his experience, and given the strogg war, they didn't bother retiring him medically, instead opting to throw him back into the fray.
It's here! It's happening! My anticipation has been rewarded! Thank you kindly, oh Loremaster!
You're very welcome! ^^
You have no idea of how anxious I was to watch this! QUake 4 is my favorite Quake!
I am properly in awe. Finally understand what I was getting told with Q4 story. I love your presentational style.
YASS, more quake lore.
Dude. Another masterful depiction of the lore. Very very well done.
Thank you kindly! ^^
So much work and love is put to your videos! I really appreciate that!
I wonder what the in-universe explanation is for not bombarding Stroggos from orbit. Obviously, the real reason is "because then we wouldn't have a videogame", but I always like hearing these things justified within the setting. "Hey Sarge, why aren't we just glassing the planet?"
Perhaps they couldn’t get close enough to safely orbital bombard a Strogg target. Another is perhaps various targets were just unable to be damaged or destroyed due to being underground. This is part of the reason that (over in 40k) the siege of Vraks happened.
I can't believe it. It Matthew Kane. One certified badass!
I was so fearful playing through this game to a point that I was too focused on the combat that I forgot to understand the storyline. Watching this is like watching a movie.
can't believe that you only have like 3k subscribers. i've binge watched your whole channel today. great work
:D thank you!
An excellent display as always, LeChum!
Some commentary @3:10 - the other ships don't seem to have been "positioned just outside Stroggos' perimeter". We see them warping in, which would imply more that they were reinforcements straight from Earth, or at least were very far away. It's known that humanity reverse engineered the Strogg's slipgate tech at some point, so it's likely this was used for the second wave as the notion of "not being able to return home" is, afaik, never mentioned in Quake 4 despite the Strogg's black hole generator being long destroyed.
Nice usage of Doom 3 footage @5:39 xD
That one was tricky. I also thought they could have been coming from Earth, but then what's the purpose of a slipgate if they can just hyperspace to Stroggos? Maybe that's how they wanted to portray slipgate travel? But the black hole generator was destroyed. Does it mean Earth could use their slipgate but not the Strogg? All in all, the fleet stationed outside Stroggos scenario was the most logical, but it could also be as they thought it would look cool to have three spaceships jump into the scene.
@@lechumqc7910 Although it's unclear when it happened, we do know that humanity reverse engineered the Strogg's slipgate technology and was able to use it themselves at some point. This is a key element of the lore for Keel, Eisen, Clutch, and the other post-Strogg War characters of Quake Champions, within the same century as said war. My interpretation given the pieces we have between the games and SyncError's comments on the official Quake discord would be that the technology was reverse engineered in the middle of the war - between when Phobos and Deimos were launched (which used Stroggs' slipgate), and when Patton and the other 2+ ships launched (which used Earth's slipgate).
@@KonigDesTodes That's interesting. 🤔I always understood the reverse-engineered aspect to be in relation to the slipgate used to get to Stroggos. Huh, intriguing. In your theory, does this mean Earth has its own black hole generator, or do each of the ships have their own slipgate technology integrated into them?
@@lechumqc7910 According to Goroth's lorescroll, ships have (or will have) individual slipdrives. But this is a couple centuries after the Strogg war. I doubt that black hole generators are strictly required for slipgates, given Quake 1, but it'd make more sense for humans to have their own built somehow than install slipdrives on ships right after reverse engineering the tech.
Finally this game got the required attention it deserves. ❤
Thank you of this episode Exitedly waiting next!
Cortez was the only marine who knew about altfire on a machinegun. He's kinda imbalanced, but really good in helping to kill stroggs.
ʕ´•̥̥̥ ᴥ•̥̥̥`ʔ I'm moved. LOVE THIS VIDEO SO MUCH! you noticed the ET:QW vehicles, you mentioned Voss backstory and Kane being a lunarian, you cloned their voices so beautifully. Mad respect for you! Thanks for using some tips from my guide, it's an honor for me.
Thank you so much! I'm glad to hear that you appreciate the way I'm utilizing them, although all the character voices are sourced directly from the game (Kane's do resembles the one from the trailer ^^ ).
@@lechumqc7910 I recognized the similarity in Kane's voice, it turned out fantastic! Thank you for putting so much effort into this video. I'm going to buy you a coffee or sending you gratitude here soon!
I shared your video on my Steam activity and a friend said he already follows you and likes the quality of your videos. Much success to you! (if you need any help with anything related to Quake4, you can count on me, I have some screenshots, some art as well, anything...)
ʕ ◠ᴥ◠ʔﾉﾞ take care!
Last night, TH-cam had a poll: Another Doom or Quake game.
Definitely another Quake game, so the Loremaster can make more videos 😂
Have you see the Quake 6 tease they included in the new Indiana Jones game trailer? I would love to see a game related to the Strogg. I wouldn't mind one similar to Q1, but if they mix both, I think my life would be complete. ^^
@@lechumqc7910Perhaps just trolling pissibly, some users said in the official quake's discord server that syncerror confirmed that this was a joke but deleted it, this all is very confusing.
@@ВадімКуриляк If that's the case, they have a very poor sense of humor. 😅
@@lechumqc7910agreed
I'll be honest, Sledge's model doesn't make him look 25, he looks as though he's in his mid to late 30s. Even Kane's rank as corporal, is surprising imo, as he's still 21 years old. Barely any older than Anderson, by 2 years, who's considered the "kid" of the squad. Perhaps if the ages of some of the squad members were slightly changed, then I'd have an easier time believing these men are at a believable age to be in their respective ranks. As for sledge I think he just needs a redesign, because the model they used makes him appear much older than his current canonized age.
Again I cannot wait to see the next videos! MORE QUAKE LORE!
Amazing story telling and production value. I know you’ll blow up eventually!! Keep ‘em comin :)
16:20 I like the Earth invasion assault rifle, because I'm a big fan of bullpup configuration and looks more futuristic.
looking foward to the detail on "Operation Advantage" after the 2nd wave ended with human footholds achieved on Stroggos. There was a lot happening in the background that people may miss. It did seem a significant army was taking part in it, yet it was a fubared assault to the point it ended up with only 2 men assigned to the final objective (Strauss and Kane). There's an unused type of destroyed SMC light hovertank with just an MG and rocket launcher in the aqueducts - the aqueducts may have been used as attack routes for some units presuming that they all lead to the tetranode (maybe these canals are for liquid cooling purposes). In any case, Advantage was a Strogg victory, they achieved attrition and the humans got nothing in return
One of my favourite games. As kid finished it dozens of times in a span of a few weeks.
FUCK YEA!
My favorite FPS campaign of all time right there 😊
T'es vidéos sont vraiment top quality mec, gj! Hâte d'écouter celui-là ce soir !
Merci! 😊Q4 et Doom 3 ont une place très spéciale dans mon Coeur. Probablement les deux jeux que j'ai le plus joués au secondaire ^^
Strauss has " ants in his pants" 🤣
Wow, love it! So good the voices explaining little more about the background story.
this deserves a lot more views, great video!
Your channel showed up in my recommended, and holy crap dude this is amazing.
gotta say they really did well with what they had with the army stuff and body horror would love a remake or quake 5 in modern looks and shit
My dude, this quality beats easily the majority of people on youtube. Hope this helps the algorithm
These videos are amazingly done. Congrats, loving every min of it.
Awesome work man, amazing stuff.
We have a new lore video yey !
Omg I love Quake Lore videos from you guys
Yay, thank you! ^^
I love these dude.. kinda like an in universe documentary.
hello Lechum Noice intro you keep on getting better
A masterpiece indeed!
After waiting so long it’s finally happening thank you so much
Btw i suggest you used some of the quake 4 soundtrack like Contact it gave a heroic feeling of SMC marine fighting bravely against the strogg
Thanks for the lore. I like all quake games. You are awesome.
Glad you enjoy it! ^^
Awesome work !!!
good shit bro! keep it up.
we need part 2 bro its gooddd
Damn. Shit is getting real.
Honestly I wish I knew how to make a game, personally I think the dark occult/sci-fi mix is still a pretty un-tapped market and has so much potential for good stories
Thank you 🥳
If i didn’t know better I think doom three uac base was in this game
The best Quake lore channel is back! Would also like some more Blood lore videos.
There’s also the armadillo squad 😁
awesome man
Oh, come on! And how it's gonna be more dope than earlier vids?? 💁🔥🔥🔥
Let's see
Strauss reminds me of Rodney Mckay from SGA
Thank you for this!
My pleasure! ^^
love this series 👩🏻🍳👌🏻
My good sir, you are doing God’s work. It is impressive!! You captured faithfully what was going through my head when I played the game years ago, a very difficult task if you ask me. Subbed!!
the best part of Quake 4 was when Kane said «its quakin time» and get enormous syringe into his brain
p.s. what are your thoughts on False Dawn addon? Do you plan to include it in narrative?
I love the detail in this video! Where did you find all the lore?
Quake 4, Quake 2, and Quake Champions were most of my sources. :)
@lechumqc7910 Thanks for the reply, i guess what I'm asking specifically is for Quake 4, do you pull info from the manuals and wiki pages or what? Where did you find the backstory for Rhino Squad for example
@@captain_fruitcake101 Quake 4 has some lore into his Prima Guide :) The Rhino and character backstory are coming from it.
You should try a video on Prey 2006
I never understood why we sent soldiers in those million dollar drop pods instead of nukes😂
Did you have the HD Textures installed when recording this? I couldnt get it to work.
No it is the vanilla quake 4 :)
fun fact, you can be crushed by the Hannibal
next quake when?
"Doo hill!"
I’ll say quake 4 is the worst quake game, but being a quake game at all still makes you a master class of an fps.
duuude!
❤
Why didnt they get Strauss aditional protecttion, he could have nuked stroggos in like 1 minute, are they stupid ?
