The fact he also had to deal with the relatively primitive technology and mindsets towards speedrunning and still managed to produce a run that is near-perfect is a testament to his skill.

      Honestly knowing a little bit about how technical Quake is in its entirety to play on a high level the run is absolutely insane. Especially for 20 years back. Quake pro players are crazy good. Even "washed up" pros from back then still take a dump on "normal" people joining the game nowadays intending to climb the ranks. You have to put a lot of hours in just to beat pro players from then let alone current pro players.

    I played the hell out of Quake back in the day. It wasn't until the end of the video, when you pointed out he probably set his record with a ball mouse that it really hit home for me. How much better our hardware is now, how much harder it would have been to set a record with such longevity in an era when no one was chasing perfection the way they are now. Peter was truly ahead of his time.

And the amazing reaction time to see "ok, the grenade is there, the setup is complete..." and STILL having to maneuver to the vore missiles to hit at the right time, WHILE killing enemies. It's obscene. The man was a legend indeed.

    Something to note that is a bit understated in the video is that Quake really founded speedrunning in the modern sense. AFAIK it was the only truly competitive speedrunning community at the time and had a sizable community around it publishing videos that were shared on physical media (pre-UA-cam). As Karl mentions, Speed Demos Archive was originally a Quake speedrunning site. My friends and I played a ton of competitive Quake back then (no speedrunning though) and the QDQ team were legends.

I've been following the Quake Champions Pro-league now a couple of seasons and I was thinking about how they can have so high accuracy with rail and shaft. Rail is now at 50-70% and shaft is at 50-60%. The best shafters in the world in Quake never got over 30-35%...the best railers in the world never got over 50%. I realized it has to do with the better hardware and one of the strongest hardwares in this is the monitors at 300Hz refreshrate. For these reasons, and this is just my opinion, I value the time of 1:17 in year 2000 as a better performance than 1:16 in year 2023.

    So glad this popped in my recommended videos. I remember when this demo was made: "jaw-dropping" is one term to describe it. But then again, Peter did that several times, he came up with new routes and tweaks and even though he never seemed to be the fastest when it came to just movement, when it involved killing monsters and making tricks work (like ogre GJs and vore-ball jumps), he was an absolute monster! It would almost give the impression that he was just going throught the level randomly throwing nails and grenades and whatnot and they were all landing where they were supossed to land, and the timing of his shots/turns/jumps was always so incredibly perfect it made you think only a mad man would attempt to beat one of his records (unless a completeley new route was found). From the times I spoke to him I realized he always thought "outside the box" and was really good at finding new routes and tricks, stuff I wouldn't have imagined if nobody told me about. I love these videos, they bring back great memories. Awesome job and explanation!

    I was a pro Clan Arena player back then and was on IRC with Fatality and all the big quake clans. The use of rocket jumps with masterful use of angles made it just as insane as some of these speed runners. Quake also had Team Fortress which was the first class based FPS mod i believe. Quake was such an amazing community at it's height.

    Incredible! Old runs of 20+ years being defeated gives me both "Aww, sad it had to be broken, as it became a legend!" and "Wow, such old historical happening being defeated! I love seeing some movement in ancient gaming!" at the same time!
    I'm happy channels like this one exist, cuz even though i don't do speedrunning, or watch many(at the moment, none live right now), i do like seeing progress from speedrunners!

    Never really understood the point of speedruns until watching Karl’s videos. The level of complexity, rng, and utter dedication are hard to understand without having it explained in detail.
    Now, it is utterly baffling to me how some of these speed runs are completed, and they truly border on what I would have thought was impossible. Cant get enough of watching them and AGDQ nowadays! Thanks Karl 😊

    Dear Karl, I would absolutely love to get more Quake videos. I was back then not into speed running, but into death matches over LAN. Until this day, I know every millimeter in DM4/DM6, and it was normal back then to use Rocket Jumps (I think it invented it) and Grenade Jumps to have some advantages.
    Quake also made me learn more about IT because we had to start hacking back then (some Novel servers, where surveillance software was loaded to keep us away from playing) to be able to avoid the censorship of the school - well, I'm for 20 years now I'm an IT professional also because of this :) I know therefore many other people back from that time, who became IT professionals because of Quake and everything it included (modding, scripting etc.).
    I know Quake (1 of course) doesn't mean that much for many of the younger people of today, but for us, it was HUGE and until this day, I'm always enjoying when I see very skilled players like you discuss (because I really know how hard some things are).

  • @Hedning1390

    Quake movement is special. The bunnyhopping, the airstrafing, the blast jumping. And the speedruns is not all about glitches you don't understand or offmapping or looking down into the ground so you can't see anything. They basically play like we played back then, just a lot better.
