I mean a huge (really huge) number of game engines ultimately draw lineage from Quake. It's either Quake or Unreal.

Nobody is denying that but the claim that Source2 is at its core just Quake 1 is just insane.

I agree that is insane. It's also insane to say the Creation Engine is GameBryo. It isn't. They just need to invest more to update it further.

Starfield contains much idTech7 code, so by the logic of certain individuals Starfield is basically Quake1 just because there is some heritage...
