This was peak PC gaming era, imo. Every year was rabidly exciting. Tech advancements were making yearly or even biyearly generational leaps. 3D Accelerators were showing an entire new realm of visual fidelity.
Quake II was truly a masterpiece of the mid 90's. The lighting, enemy AI, and open multi layered level design pushed the genre forward. Today I feel the game is largely forgotten by many and an underrated classic.
