History Recap / QuakeThePunishmentDue

-> ''"While DOOM was ported to many platforms throughout its lifetime, Quake only saw two ports due to its much higher system requirements. One of those ports was to a 32-bit console, and the other was Quake 64. While both ports featured modified versions of the original levels in order to run on the hardware at the time, Quake 64 featured a few changes that differentiated itself from the original 1996 release. Colored lighting, a brand new soundtrack by acclaimed composer Aubrey Hodges, and two player split screen multiplayer were all unique to this version of the game. The unique nature of Quake 64 has caused it to be looked back on fondly by some players over the years, which is why we are happy to be able to bring it into modern times, with the original soundtrack intact."''

* AntiFrustrationFeatures: If you reach the third floor in "Azure Annoyance", the one that contains the ledge with the two Ogres, and you fall back to the first floor, a portal will open, easeing you the task of having to go back upwards. If you instead fall to the second floor, you'll have nearby a platform.

* HarderThanHard: The portal for the Nightmare difficulty level is unlocked after [[spoiler:shooting a hidden switch at the right of the Hard difficulty portal. Then a message is triggered]].

** Also from "Azure Annoyance", once you reach the room with a QuadDamage behind some bars, lowering the pillar will reveal some hidden metal steps... and two Scrags hiding in a small upper chamber.
* NoticeThis: After passing the first wall in "Azure Annoyance", you'll reach a ledge with a platform button sticking out of it. It reveals a secret in the nearby computers. You need to reach the secret quick, though.

* {{Blackground}}: The only visible things in this trope are the difficulty portals. Otherwise, there's nothing but black.
