ragingfred it’s because they made the game as if it was still the early 2000s. Zero punctuation wax right. Duke nukem forever needed to be an ironic self aware game
@ShadowAngel i mean they tried. and im happy EA didnt fucking touch it. imagine it being a shitty shooter with lootboxes.... YAY I FINALLY UNBOXED MY GOLDEN 1911.... fuck no
I mean that actually kinda makes sense, considering Duke has absolutely no context as to what is happening, so he only knows as much as the player does.
When a Polish gaming company makes a better portrayal of Duke Nukem than the most recent Duke Nukem game, and it's simply by slapping his face on the main character of another game
Duke nukem forever is moderately good, moderatly mind you, it is disappointed that it took 12 years to make, but its as good as doom 3 Both games arnt living up on there predecessor legacy but they have a decent story and gameplay
I love how Duke shows concern for people he barely knows, like how he was genuinely furious that Sarrano tricked Dead Echo into killing innocents, or his refusal to leave the ship until he knows Isshi will pull through. It’s a side of him you don’t get to see much, considering he’s usually alone when he’s fighting aliens. He may be a horny egomaniac, but he truly is a good guy.
What's this, Duke being an _actual character_ with personality, concern for others, fears and epicness without being a hollowed-out copy of himself? Guess life is still full of surprises. Also I might be on the minority, but I think Duke is a better lead than Grayson in this game. You know, HIS OWN GAME.
I only bought it for Duke and beat the game with just him as the lead. This is the best Duke since Duke Nukem 3D. The Forever version we got was a joke, I'm glad people are working on the Duke Nukem Forever 2001 Restoration Project right now.
@@raeltarantino nah I liked the 2011 one as it was a real game and actually made duke a savage and funny. The remaster is kinda old looking still and basically the same game lol
@@kennypowers1945the 2011 game was a generic shopter game that didn't have anything to help it stand out. It made Duke an unlikable and boring asshole. He had no personality.
Duke Nukem after having a horrific nightmare where he starred in DNF, realized that he’s in the wrong game but decides that he needs to save lives and kick ass.
After a night of drinking and getting blacked out drunk, Duke wakes up in another game, replacing Gray, at first, Duke doesn't really care, thinking he can just blow right through it, just like his past adventures, but when things get worse and worse, Duke realizes that things have changed, he can't just treat everything with disregard anymore, for the first time in his life, Duke has to learn to take things seriously.
I think turning Duke into a charachter that just randomly shows up in different games and replaces the main charachter without knowing what the hell is going on would be the radest idea ever, but it would most likely also be a licensing nightmare.
John Carey Ultra duke is very arrogant. But Julius Caesar was kidnapped and held ransom by pirates once.when he found out what the ransom was he got upset and told the pirates "I'm worth twice that much."
This is just proof that Duke can still make a good game, if they'd just stop the self referential stuff tying it to the 90s and let him ACTUALLY have a new adventure. God I hope Gearbox actually does something with the IP.
_Maaaan_ there are so many things working against a proper Duke revival at this point. Gearbox are lazy shits when it comes to anything that isn't Borderlands, Gearbox writers are social justice sycophants who would likely do a deliberate disservice to the character, and Gearbox's publisher 2K/Take Two are greedy corporate cunts on the same level as EA.
Growing up in the '90s seeing Duke in action was awesome. Seeing Duke in Bulletstorm not knowing why he's here is the best story and I hope they bring Duke back in a sequel for Bulletstorm 2 if it ever comes the light of day
I like Duke being serious, and Duke being funny. If they make a new one, let there be a mix. So that when he's serious, he's SERIOUS and you know who ever he's being serious too isnt gonna have a good time. But make him just as funny as usual.
This is like that one really old tumblr post where they remade Twilight but Edward Cullen was played by Kanye West who wasn't given a script and had no idea what the plot of the movie was, no dialogue was changed except Kanye West was reacting to Twilight in real time.
He is a bit off character but I still love this for the sole reason that having Duke show up in completely unrelated, out of place scenarios is guaranteed to be great
Well, Duke have always been 4th wall breaking so it was kinda funny and... It's interesting to see him in a dramatic scenario and dealing with all these personalities. And for some reason, Duke becoming a space pirate mercenary and doing whatever dirty job he can to scrape by is convincing.
This is dukes best game as forever didn't do very well. Old graphics and no proper developed story just duke saving the world from aliens and pig cops but it wasn't too bad I actually think dukes best game is this full tour
This feels like Duke got dropped into some Quantum Leap scenario, and he's just trying his best to just roll with it til he's spawned into another game world. Imagine the cool shit Duke could say off in something like Dead Space in Issac's place. Undead Alien mutants, Alien marker and it's Cult inspiration brain washing people, Spaceships and Space stations, Dead Space would be perfect for Duke, it was just be awkward as a 3rd person shooter.
She was all: "What!? How would you know that" Duke: "...long story there was a Flashback and..." I love when duke says he's not even supposed to be there
OMG! This is THE game that DNF should've been! Duke is amazing in this: he's like Ash in "Army of Darkness"! Everyone acting all dramatic around him and he just doesn't understand\give a damn about most of what's going on but he still tries to do the right thing! And he gets his ass beaten once or twice too! Although he shrugs it off with jokes, that makes him more human.
5:21 Peak Duke Nukem Writing . Even tho he dosen't know where he is he still cares about humanity and takes control of the case as a hero. God was this so hard to write for Duke Nukem Frover. I can't belive a funny side addition has more consistent Duke Nukem as a charachter than its own game.
i wish the AI reacted to Duke rather than just add a few lines that make it obvious he isnt supposed to be in the game also would have been funnier if each time they call you grey duke just goes "who the fuck is grey?"
Something that surprised me throught my playthrough of this is how chill of a dude Duke Nukem was. Like he made wisecracks but he actually seemed to care for the most part, even while being incredibly confused about his surroundings.
I received fhis game for free, and as soon as i started playing I thought it was boring. But then i heard about Duke Nuken patch voice, and it was the best microtransation that i purchase.
They wrote Duke Nukem better as a funny DLC in a game he doesn't belong in than in the game everyone was waiting over a decade for.
ragingfred Duke Nukem Forever was fun, though.
mildly fun minus the long arse waiting times and levels that just completely felt empty.. But it wasn't as bad as people said it was
I love Duke Nukem, but Gearbox couldn’t even be bothered to give him proper lip-synch his new lines from Gray.

So basically let People Can Fly Develop the game since they are probably the only ones that could get it right.

Duke Nukem is almost entirely composed to candle wax and shitty beer.

but the self references IS duke. hes a fucking cheeseball of a character, if you try to make him serious, he just wont be duke anymore.
problem is, duke nukem 3d was intended as a parody. So it's kinda hard finding originality in the character.

Change my mind.
Duke Nukem should be as a guest vault hunter in Borderlands 3
My favorite line is when Duke calls the computer a "porn machine" lol
I can only imagine what Grayson is doing in Duke's world while Duke is in his.
how ironic....
Bulletstorm with Duke Nukem DLC makes better Duke Nukem Forever than DNF itself....
much better

This is by far, thee GREATEST fucking thing i have ever damn seen!!! Too damned hilarious!
What will happen, when you put a Duke Nukem, Doomguy, Serious Sam and a Terminator into a one room?
Duke and sam would hang out. Terminator as an ally? Then all 3 would hang
Doomguy forever alone... ;_;
heliosX1000 and doom. Basically 4 player epic co op
