Yeah but he is writing about the reboots. What has that got to do with developments from the last millennium. The mythos around idsoftware is the main reason these games sold.

    They’re fine. They’re not especially revolutionary, in fact quite the opposite since they lean so heavily on nostalgia for much of what they are.

    It is useful to have another 3D engine alternative to Unreal, but having Microsoft in ultimate control of that meant that it was never especially dependable for anyone.

    I feel it's worth noting that up until COD:Ghosts, the entire COD series was built on top of the q3a engine
