Indeed, nice to see a lot of stuff being written about Quake.

Heh, I started learning level design during my Doom 3 days, since then I have always heavily enjoyed it. I just need to play with more 3d games that I feel motivated to edit for. Quake is too frustrating, the editors are clunky.

The old days had technological limitations however, you would often have weaker hardware than was needed to play something. I remember the absolute torture of Doom 3 and how much it lagged when I tried to play it, the sound glitches, the whole mess. I remember not being even able to touch the Aliens Vs Predator Series due to my computer not being powerful enough. When I was able to play Spiderman: The Movie, it was years after I had picked up the game, simply because my computer couldn't handle it. At least now my computer can easily handle any 20 year old game.

Yeah, I just don't like using the CD drive as it tends to get in the way, plus the fact that I don't like having a bunch of physical CDs around me due to limited room. It is much easier just to put stuff in storage and then throw everything over before getting rid of whatever disk check it needs. I wouldn't want a disc image mounted on my computer all the time either, I like to have as little running at all times on my computer as possible, so mounted drives aren't exactly my thing if I am not using it at the moment.
