Ha ha, yeah, though to be fair the same can be said for a vast majority of the games out there. If id hadn't copied Maze War, we wouldn't have had the masterpieces that are Doom, Doom II and Quake...
And The Surge still looks cool.

Quite. Whilst I'll never stop indulging in the relentless floccinaucinihilipilification of "clone" games, I'll admit that id's decision to do a Maze War knockoff may have led to one or two good things further down the line.

So, I had to google that and much to my surprise, it is a real word! I thought it was raxacoricofallapatorian or something.

What a worthy successor to limbo. Just finished playing through yesterday and I was even more impressed than I thought I would be. If any of y'all haven't picked that up with the winter sale yet, you should.
I Had The Same Thought
The lack of Quake is disturbing!

I was about to post these exact same 3 words earlier when my phone's battery went kaput...
As for the answer, maybe because there's no dilemma about Quake? It is the best FPS ever, after all, and I even may dare say the best game, period.

Two flaws:
1) All paths should lead to Dark Souls.
2) Dark Souls does not even exist on this fekin rat king.

with a fantastic art direction. The end was quite tough, though, and I needed a walkthrough to finish it.

Started playing Salt and Sancutary from the Steam xmas sale and I have to say it is pretty good! Obviously directly inspired by Dark Souls, but the game takes the good (and some bad) from the series and produces this original 2D experience. Dumbed down controls as it should be considering the lost of the 3rd dimension.
I have no problem if someone uses the Souls formula in this way...unlike the dumb cousin with pretty snow gusts that is Lords of the Fallen.
