Pretty sure I played this back in the day and shrugged. Quake 2 got my attention, and then Half-Life shook me by the shoulders, and then Deus Ex grabbed me by the balls, and I stopped thinking about games that didn't ask me to think.
Going back now though, Quake is an absolute dream, a breath of fresh air. Twitchy, speedy, visceral, it doesn't ask me to think so much as feel and react, it's buttery smooth and the sound design kicks ass and you can explode anything into chunks thanks to the king of powerups: QUAD DAMAGE.
Quake feels like the true seed of what's great about Doom 2016, and I live in hope of a Quake 202X.
