How is it not? The Quake series was the successor to the Doom series (or are you disputing this?) so it is kind of natural that the first Quake game is the successor to the last (from that era) Doom game?
so are you, you were talking about gameplay a little while ago. Do Doom and Quake share the same unreal engine? Did Doom and Wolfenstein share the same game engines? Where any of those games in the same worlds/universes? I think the answer to all of those questions is a no. So no, i definitely would not call them "direct successors" to those franchises.You are pretty anal about your definition of "direct successor"...
I still occasionally get waves of nostalgia for WoW which make me almost want to start playing again!
But the point of a SUCCESSOR is that you develop it further, like you know, a new and better engine maybe?
By your defintion Red Alert isn't even a successor to C&C because they are set in different universes.
But Wolf3D and Doom aren't and Dune II and C&C aren't very different in gameplay.the successor claim is based on gameplay, though. saying Doom and Quake are successors is so strange because they are so different
no its not, since they are a part of the same franchise. I have made this clear numerous times.By your defintion Red Alert isn't even a successor to C&C because they are set in different universes.
yes, they are. Sharing a few aspects of gameplay doesn't mean they aren't different games.But Wolf3D and Doom aren't and Dune II and C&C aren't very different in gameplay.
this is hilarious coming from the most delusional person on this board. But maybe you dont know what a "direct successor" is when it comes to franchises/series? If not, maybe i can pull out my spoon and start feeding you again. Quake and Doom are two different worlds, and run on two different game engines. You are an idiot. "BUBUBUT ITS WAS ONE OF THE NEXT POPULAR SHOOTERS WHICH MEANS IT WAS ITS DIRECT SUCCESSOR" as expectedTechBarb has no idea what he's talking about, as usual.
Vilden, watch out, TechBarb was TEN YEARS OLD when he was playing C&C, he's practically your grandfather.
