All the storefronts - Steam, GOG, Epic - are excitedly promoting
QuakeCon and using it to promote games. It's not that I have any
problem with that*, but it's REALLY WEIRD for me to hear "QuakeCon"
and then see Microsoft and Bethesda games listed right next to the
usual Id titles.
It's almost feels sacrilegious, even.
But I guess that's the world we live in, now. Next year we'll probably
seen Doom-guy in a cross-over even with Animal Crossing...

commercialism, of course ;-)
