Now you all know
The leak and what’s wrong.
We all asked them why,
Then sat down and cry...
In a game far away,
We may meet again,
but now hear the song
about the death of the one:
let’s sing the Quake song!
Tomorrow they’ll lock it away,
behind a paywall;
No one will ever know our game.
Just its pitiful remains...
Tomorrow they’ll take it away,
The Quake of today,
It will be gone...
...I bet it’s all on sponge.
There’s only one game
And… I won’t find
The courage to start
Playing something that’s new
Now the fun times are over,
And it’s time to leave
No one should cash in for the rights of the one,
They now call “classic”
Tomorrow they’ll lock it away,
Behind a paywall,
No one will ever know our game
Just its pitiful remains
Tomorrow Quake Live will be gone,
But you are not alone,
So come to my side,
And sing this song
Cause the true Quake will remain
In our hearts remain
In my thoughts and in my dreams
There’s only one of a kind
With item timing, and no loadout
Where jumping takes some tries
Not Quake Live 2.0
It probably goes by saying, but this is by no mean serious... ;)
Edit: reading a few comments, I think I was taken too seriously. I personally don't think QL2.0 will be the death of Quake, and I've been paying for pro since the beginning, so I am not advising to boycott the game, or anything like that. I merely wanted to capture what I read in the various threads, and do a lyrics exercise.

This song is about the community reaction on the leaked information on the upcoming changes to Quake Life. Like similar previous videso, It's by no mean serious.
The original song, The Bard Song, is from Blind Guardian. I changed the text, and recorded voice and guitar.
"
a cover is when you SiNG the song without changing the lyrics my friend. plagiarism is when you take a song, take the melody and copy it, _without the permission of the author_.
I agree, you can still host with the old ruleset, wtf is all the crying about
Probably because 90% of these people play without paying and can't possibly imagine dishing out a few pounds to host, like I've been doing for the last... I don't know, 2 years.
I'm holding 2 "pro" accounts and rest assured, there will always be an Unranked 5/5 CA server with the old rules and a tier 3 ranked duel server open as long as my PC is on.
I don't understand what all the crying is about, hey the noobs might even join our servers later and it may be a positive thing in the long run, but still, if you're sponging off a free game dont fucking cry when they aren't making money and need to resort to drastic measures.
My only complaint is that they're renaming "noob" gamerules to "Default" --- should be called "noob" since then no matter how good someone is at the new ruleset, big "NOOB" writing will be written in the corner of their screen encouraging them to l2p with the grown-ups
Which makes it *almost* a similar situation to q3. Where, back then, a couple of dedicated members paid for a hosted server everybody else could use. The difference being that the server would be up 24/7 and not depend on some client pc running.
