Quake 2 (Nightmare 100%) Walkthrough (Unit 4: Mines)

This is a commentated playthrough of Quake 2 for the PC, played through the 2023 re-release (KexQuake 2) sourceport on the Nightmare difficulty. All of the units will be played from a 'clean start', and all the kills and secrets will be demonstrated. In this video, I play Unit 4 - Mines.
Hopefully this video should be the last one with mic cutouts.

One of my favourite episodes in the game.

This Re-release is so well done!

[@lukebehrendsbro.]

I do love these kinds of levels. Hard times when it comes to using Quad Damage and Invuns very wisely. Great job here. 🙂👍

I saved all my cells for the power armor. Between playing with a controller (worse aim, it seems) and being a ninny I just feel warm and fuzzy knowing I can have poor reaction times and not die. Often.

We gon go mine for diamonds!

Was dying all the time, had to come here to see how to do it, thx

12:18 "OOUUGG... Trespaja"

[@TheKlink]

the hitbox and autorotate on that new bezerker attack is bullshit

[@dm_mighty]

I'm sorry, but the slowed-down jump sound effect at 14:07 is really fucking funny 😭😭
And the fact you do it once, then twice, and just never mention it

[@Punk93Metal]

4:58 I understood that reference lol

[@Quiver333_real]

Rare footage of Dwars traversing Rrajiga... I mean TRESPASSER mines knowing that Quake II 64 does not have crouching and thinking about how to actually plurarize Icarus properly

Even though there's a decent amount of water in this unit, they (id Software) wanted to do a water unit, but were unable to.

[@jess648]

I heard that they had a lot more planned for the final 2 units but time prevented that

[@ireneparkin3360]

@@jess648 i can only imagine what Quake 2 would be if they have time to implement them.

[@TheScotsfurian]

i always called the basic soldier guys smurfs because of their alert sound.

[@lemagreengreen]

It seems like id wanted to make the mutant similar to the fiend in Quake 1 but it didn't really work out... they're pretty broken, like so many Quake 2 enemies.

[@Quiver333_real]

He's definitely more buff than fiend

[@rustyjames6131]

Is it just me or does the GL shoot really high now?

[@dinitroacetylen]

Isn't it weird how in English we always pluralise Greek words in Latin way (icarus, icari)? This is a fustercluck. What would be a proper Greek way to pluralise it anyway? Icares? Is it even supposed to have a plural (considering that it is originally a proper name)?
Also, the microphone dying in the middle of a sentence is really getting out of hand.

[@Dwars]

By the next video, I tried treating it, and even adjusted the sync. Hopefully I'm done with these issues, but it's hard to tell while recording since there are no visible or audible indicators about it.

[@Quiver333_real]

You definitely can't go wrong with "Icaruses" I guess

[@toretronio9030]

Icarus doesn't have a plural in Greek since it's a name, like you said, but the most proper type would be Icari (sounding Icar-ee). In fact, the Latin plural really works for most Greek words that have been passed to Latin the same (Icaros-Icarus)

[@Arkouchie]

The proper pluralization would probably “icarus enemies” or even “icarus strogg”, but tbh icari is fun to say

[@cambrianratcatcher]

Could have snuck through but you just *had* to touch everything. Fool of a Took...
