These giant, sprawling maps, with hundreds of enemies and dozens of secrets are not perfectly attuned to my preferences. But I certainly can't say no to more official Quake. Always a blast to get a new episode. Good stuff. ---

I'm waiting for GOG to update their delivery of quake enhanced, so far nothing. ---

Is there any fix for MG3 so that on vkQ and QSS engines the text is displayed correctly, like for the previous MG1 add-on? ---

If you're still looking for it, just download the latest release and use the newest version of all files (including id1 where all the text lives now). ---

After playing through the whole thing, it was a bit of a let-down. What was up with the character depicted in the statues? We never even saw her (let alone fought her, which I was looking forward to!), instead it was Cthon...again. Oh, well, beggars can't be choosers. ---
