along those lines, I saw a video where a light strobing pattern from quake was still used in a section half-life alyx (with much better lighting lol)

the fact the quake engine’s internals still live on in so many modern games is quite a feat


Half life was built on quake 1 code and the codebase was never abandoned but they kept improving and improving on it, essentially all valve games have something inherited from it from TF2 to Dota to Alyx.
