Naming choice is a bit interesting. Cause, another id Tech 1 (Doom engine) game The Original Strife: Veteran Edition [External Link] used to be called Strife: Quest for the Sigil. I guess that's just a coincidence but peculiar indeed.

Quoting: LeopardWell,if you had free space less than 10 gb that happens. At least that is what happened to me

I have 17 gb space available space and my Proton games are kept being added to update list for couple KB of updates every time I restart Steam client. Weird.

Can please people understand this is not Half-Life: Remastered, Half-Life: Enhanced or Half-Life: HD? That's Black Mesa and Xen looks fantastic for what it is.

Quoting: mao_dze_dunLooks good but why the 4:3. Please let there be a widescreen.

Yeah, 4:3 is a silly limitation. If it's just an option, why not, but such limitations are just useless gimmicks in modern times.

Quoting: KayKay91Screw that, have they fixed the issue where the game won't download the maps in community servers already?!?

The one where it will always stay at 0%.

Quoting: scaineYeah, between Prey, Doom and now Descent, it's all becoming a bit of a mystery what games are being talked about.

I guess we need a Quake revival, just for completeness.

That will not happen since Quake community is quite active and Bethesda keeps mentioning existing Quake as it is. What AAA publishers usually do in subject matter is to leave their own IP in obscurity, then revive/reboot/reimagine it, finally take advantage of familiarity of old players and existing search engine results. The reason that allowed Bethesda to name Doom (2016) as it is the widely accepted bundle name of the original Doom. Doom got popularized with the release of Doom II: Hell on Earth. After Doom 2, id Software released 4th episode, Thy Flesh Consumed for Doom and called whole package as The Ultimate Doom which is widely accepted. Recently Bethesda considered Doom 2 as Doom (2016) sequel but they had to drop it due to popularity of existing Doom II.

Quoting: hummer010The whole "PC" has been an ambiguous term for a long time. When I was in University, I bought my first computer (A Pentium 100). The computer lab at the university was a lab full of Macintosh PowerPC's.

Someone asked me if I had a PC. I didn't know how to answer which one was a PC?

To be honest, x86 CPU a good disjunctive to define PC. So, current Macs are PCs. BUT, if Apple decides to leave Intel to use their own CPU as it is rumored for a long time, then they will start being not PC again.
