What is Quake, anyway? This video retrospective of the whole Quake franchise looks at each title and their expansions to see how the series evolved through time, if there is a story or not, and if any of it makes any sense in the end. The video considers the story of Quake from both a fiction and nonfiction perspective in its critique. It pays particular attention to the new MachineGames campaigns included in the Quake remasters. Spoilers, I guess, for both history and lore.

This video made with production assistance from Nate Greene.
