    I’m not disagreeing with you, but does it?

    Honestly it looks (refreshingly) very much like those kind of games just with modern graphics and a load-out system

    Is there something I’ve missed?

      Out of Action’s big hook is its wild movement set: you can dodge, dive, dive roll, slide, wallrun, and double jump. The only thing you can’t do is, surprisingly, sprint. Getting around efficiently isn’t just about speed—it’s about chaining together maneuvers so you don’t faceplant into a wall and discovering shortcuts across the map.

        Quake doesn’t have sprint and a lot of those kinds of maneuvers are straight out of shooters like that. Quake players also basically invented the wall-run and dive rolling was pretty common in UT99 IIRC too
