The Future of Quake, Rage, and id Software

Quake-Con 2013 is happening in Dallas, Texas this weekend, but there is, and has been for many years, a noticeable absence of Quake. IGN asked developer id Software’s studio director Tim Willits for a status report on the legendary shooter franchise.

I would love to see another Quake game. It's too bad that no one played the Quake 4 multiplayer, which was really good like all the other quakes. Quake 2 on N64 was my favorite.

Give me a classic quake/doom with extremley sexy graphics.

If they make a new Quake, leave the future stuff to the Doom series and make a direct sequel to the original game. As for Rage, well, learn from your mistakes and move on iD.

I would LOVE a new Quake. I honestly don't know why Quake 4 wasn't more popular, besides the lackluster map selection, the gameplay was just as good as Quake 3's. Quake 4's graphics still look great to this day, a testament to Carmack and his team's coding prowess with their id Tech engines.

Hopefully they can make a comeback. I'm just tired of all these generic modern-day military shooters. Old-school arcade action is where it's at!

Lol thats what people said in 2002. "Man I'm tired of all these deathmatch twitch shooters". Now its the other way around lol.

I remember people saying that back then, lol. I've been playing all sorts of FPS since the 90's though, I'm legit tired of brown/gray/black/red FPS with muted color palettes and whatnot.
