No We Dont Talk About Quake Champions That Doesnt Count - Tumblr Posts

Love that trope in video games where they turn something you can buy at a hardware store into a primary weapon.

Quake’s nailgun, Doomguy’s chainsaw, Gordon Freeman’s crowbar…

Love that shit every fucking time.

It’s just another aspect of putting yourself into the character through diegetic stuff. You can go buy that nailgun, you can get a crowbar at your local hardware store and be that guy.

These aren’t just hard-ass dudes. Their original purpose, in these games inceptions, were that they were meant to be you. YOU, the player, are slaying monsters.
