    like saying you can’t modernize the Mona Lisa, but it’s fine if you put a new coat of paint over it.

    A new coat of paint would be updating the graphics, which is the opposite the person you’re replying to meant.

    A better analogy to what they’ve done with Quake is it’s like updating the Mona Lisa’s display case to modern standards and improve the museum’s lighting, so more people can enjoy it.
