This is a text that can be found in Commander Keen 3. Apparently, it's the original concept for Quake. =D Fun read, actually, so I decided to post it here.. It really changed. =D

    COMING SOON FROM ID SOFTWARE

    As our follow-up to the Commander Keen trilogy, id Software is working on 'The Fight for Justice', a completely new approach to fantasy gaming. You start not as a weakling with no food--you start as Quake, the strongest, most dangerous person on the continent. You start off with a Hammer of Thunderbolts, a Ring of Regeneration, and a trans-dimensional artifact. Here the fun begins. You fight for Justice, a secret organization devoted to vanquishing evil from the land! This is role-playing excitement.

    And you don't chunk around the screen. 'The Fight for Justice' contains fully animated scrolling backgrounds. All the people you meet have their own lives, personalities, and objectives. A 256-color VGA version will be available (smooth scrolling 256-color screens --fancy that)!

    And the depth of play will be intense. No more "whack whack here's some gold." There will be interesting puzzles and decisions won't be "yes/no" but complex correlations of people and events. 'The Fight for Justice' will be the finest PC game yet.

From the 3dRealms website, got there through a post in some forum... I'm thinking of downloading Keen 3 just to see this in its original form.. Cheesy

With the VGA part don't you think that this is a joke?

Don't have any reason to think so, really.. Keen 3 came out long before Quake, so the concept was bound to change, and technology changed with it.
