I beat Quake last year; I thought it was fun. The vores and blue slime can get forgeted though. Also the ending is very anti-climactic.
If you are gonna play it, I'd recommend using
Quakespasm because the Steam port is garbage.
Speaking of garbage ports, if you want to play Doom 1 and 2 you should use ZDoom or GZDoom. Though you'll want to disable the ability to jump and look up and down if you want the authentic Doom experience.
