Because he DNF.
also current politics.
Ethan Sanchez
Cause timmy tencent is a raging doucher.
Juan Clark
because forever was objectively terrible
Dominic Ross
IMO it had more to do with Randy fucking Pitchford than DNF or Politics.
James Bell
honestly i dont think any one could do him justice even without the whole "politics" shit
Owen Perez
Just make him gritty akin to Daniel Craig James Bond. Duke was supposed to be an action movie homage, not a parody despite what DNF turned him and the world around him into.
Camden Brooks
He's a relic of the past. A product of a different time.
Carter Torres
How exactly would you bring him to this era?
Henry Gomez
Like I just said.
Duke should be a womanizer and still make one-liners, but I'd make him less of an Austin Powers wannabe, as if they wanted to go with that direction: They'd need actual writers good at that, and the problem is: Duke Nukem Forever was full of hackery with it's humor.
Christian Rogers
Time to kill remake
Angel Collins
time to kill could of been good. the ideas were solid but that tank movement and tomb raider

William Cox
We're too far removed from the movies that inspired Duke Nukem in the first place. It makes sense for a low budget indie game, but not something that's supposed to be a AAA game that most AAA players won't even understand.
Oliver Brown
RIP Duke
Consigned to the wannabe voice actor mines
Michael Long
>300x the man Duke is and still gets games
kneel
Oliver Thompson
Literally just because Randy exists.
Until he dies or someone saves Douk from that faggot's hands then nothing noteworthy will ever get released.
Nicholas Brown
This is as close as your gonna get. Not quite the same as a proper Duke game but overall it was pretty good
Ethan Green
Duke has always been a parody in itself
He would still fit in regardless the political climate, Jon St. John is a polar opposite of him and very liberal and he still loves voicing him
Charles Bennett
This Randy does not want to make any video games including pic rel... besides Tranny Lands.
Mason Flores
Bro, the series ended with X
Unless they keep remaking the old games, or remake 2 again like 1 and 3, he isn’t supposed to be getting any more “new” games.
Joshua Anderson
>Jon St. John is a polar opposite of him
it didn't use to be like that, like all feeble minds he was poisoned by the woke virus sometime after 2012
his twatter is fucking depressing to look at

Social justice hit video games pretty much right when DNF came out. I remember being confused people were getting so upset by "capture the babe" and the whole twins getting knocked up with aliens thing at the time. I was like it's Duke, what do these people expect? Good taste and strong female role models? This is the way it's supposed to be, that's the whole premise. Boy did I have a lot to learn.
John Powell
I read these in Douk's voice and you know what? I'd play it.
Jackson Hernandez
>Knee on his neck? How about my boot up your ass!
Jaxon Wood
To be fair, the first half of DNF was spent trying to rescue the twins and having Duke joke about the whole thing when they get exploded by the birthing aliens was in poor taste and really out of character for Duke.
Ethan Peterson
>Slaps disembodied tits and chuckles
>tells his gfs that they are fucked
>his "friend" dylan is supposed to be a reference to marcus fenix and dylan calls another soldier a pussy for wanting to find his wife
>npc talks about looking at his aunt's tits because they are huge
A woman wrote DNF and she has never talked to a man to any degree.
This game is not mean spirited towards Duke, it is mean spirited towards humanity for how awful it is.
Josiah Cook
Broussard sucked a fat one, sharted out 3DRealms and then the Duke died. True story.
Now even Apogee's Miller wants nothing to do with the Swedes who bought the naming rights.
True stories, men. True stories.
Caleb Gray
Just make him homo
Zachary Gonzalez
blacked + faggot. there is no choice.
Owen Hill
what was it like in the 2000s seeing your favourite game franchises getting turned into shit?
Austin Bell
>two women were the writers for DNF
Women will never understand how Duke is supposed to be portrayed.
Hudson Long
Played Deus Ex, didn't care.
Still play it today. Awesum gaym. Shits on the usual suspects and isn't afraid of white men.
Julian Hughes
SSam Siberian Mayhem; exists
basically the Duke we deserved. And he is a Serb.
Grayson Murphy
Duke is to Doomguy as Sonic is to Mario
Always has been second hand trash
Easton Ward
Thats a good one to be honest
Luke Foster
spoken like a true retard. zoom off to another thread.
(duke was HUGE back then)
Nathan Gomez
3DRealms went broke and then went woke by selling the right to Randy Bobandy. What's not to understand you dumb mutts use your fucking minibrains next time before posting dumb SHIT like this
Gavin Sanchez
>Uses RPG
>Heh heh, looks like black lives splatter.
Aaron Perry
>One of the only games I'd actually would call legitimately misogynistic is written by women
You can't make this shit up lmao
Jace Wood
2000's wasn't TOO bad, 2010's is where it REALLY went to shit
I think the moment my hope for games finally died was seeing Thief 2014

painful, thankfully old games didn't suddenly get vaporized and I can still play them
Evan Lee
Duke Nukem the character predates Doomguy by two years.
Duke has also had only a few FPS game. Most of his games have been third person and side scrollers.
Joseph Ortiz
duke has had 2 fps games, 3 if you count duke nukem advance
namely 3d (+ expansions) and DNF
the rest is either TPP or sidescrollers
the last good duke game came out in 2002
Thomas Long
>3DRealms went broke and then went woke by selling the right to Randy Bobandy
the really sad part is that at the time this didn't seem like a bad idea
Borderlands 1 was OK, Randy had historically worked on DN3D (most notably the atomic edition episode "The Birth"), and the future looked bright for Gearbox during this period
it's only after that we realized how much of a mistake it was, with Randy being a fucking scumbag behind the scene (this was the period where he stole Sega's Aliens Colonial Marines funding and embezzled it into Borderlands 2) and then turning into a huge SJW to virtue signal after he got caught with "barely legal" porn
also I will keep saying this forever: Gearbox DID NOT FINISH DNF, all they did was cut out everything that wasn't 90% finished by 3DR, replace Bombshell with a terribly unfunny Gear of War parody character, and cut the game in half to vaguely repurpose the latter half of the game as paid DLC later
fuck gearbox and fuck Randy pitchford
Eli Price
Not "safe" enough for today's climate. If they did another one Duke would be toned right the fuck down.
John Butler
old-school seems to have grown popular thanks to the Doom Reboot, and Microsoft seems eager to bring back dead franchises. maybe we'll get a new Duke sooner or later
Andrew Jones
I think it was spearheaded by wolf TNO, but the "le retro boomer shooters" are almost all garbage, because they seem to forget that it was the gameplay that made old shooters great, not being low poly/brown/2.5D
out of the bunch ironically enough project warlock holds up the best, followed by wrath (or at least what little was made of it)
everyone is sucking dusk/ae/ion maiden dick but these games just don't fucking GET IT
Jaxson Gray
QC and UT4 seemed pretty promising, shame devs abandoned them
Gavin Bell
QC is such a tragic story, I remember getting into the very first closed beta and having a fucking blast
and then they opened the sluice gates and everything went to shit
Josiah Gonzalez
Ironic. Duke was the big-mouthed, shit talinkg mutt. And just like Amurka, that big mouth vanished into nothing and nothing of value was lost.
Jackson Sanchez
If they ever make another Duke game I just hope they won't reuse the same aliens again. Come up with a new threat.
Sebastian Green
Dusk isn't brown, it's also miles above Warlock, which is just room after room of monsters, not even good arenas like in DE, just rooms.
Jace Richardson
It's only been eleven years since the last release my man, that means it's another two before one comes out.
It'll probably be very similar to Doom 2016 or Shadow Warrior 3 hopefully if it ever comes oout
Jacob Howard
>tfw every franchise dook mocked stayed relevant longer than he did
Isaac Bailey
>my rooms are better than your rooms
>dusk isn't brown
funnily enough, when you look at it, DNF is very similar to nu-dooms, albeit with much more drawn out bullshit non-shooting segments
>arena-style combat
>platforming puzzles
>excecutions aka glory kills
>encouraged weapon swapping (yes fuck you with 4 guns you have to)
>extremely limited ammo
>bosses that you can really only effectively damage with select few weapons
>powerups
>inventory items
Gabriel Richardson
oh yeah, fucking ammo crates too
Christian Williams
>>arena-style combat
it didn't have that
>>bosses that you can really only effectively damage with select few weapons
DE doesn't have that
>>inventory items
DE doesn't have that and D3D does
Nolan Stewart
Fun fast Yahtzee Croshaw wrote a draft for DNF but it was rejected because it contained too self aware humor that was making fun of Duke.
Ayden Fisher
Reminds me there was an interview that stated Duke was a very serious character. Can't for the life of me remember who said it, but it was probably Pitchford.
Robert Smith
you didn't play the game
try killing any boss without hotswapping to plasma/ballista/rockets
what is crucible, grenades, flamethrower, blood punch
de is an okay game, not the savior of fps
stop sucking its dick zoomer
Alexander Lee
>try killing any boss without hotswapping to plasma/ballista/rockets
some weapons do more damage in DE like in any FPS ever, meanwhile DNF has enemies that can only be damaged by explosives
>what is crucible, grenades, flamethrower, blood punch
none of those are items. Crucible is a weapon with rare ammo, grenades and flamethrower are cooldowns, blood punch is fueled by GKs.
>stop sucking its dick zoomer
a guy who thinks DE invented inventory in FPS calls me a zoomer, sweet
Jace Thomas
>none of these are items because... because cooldowns
irrelevant, they're hotkey items
>a guy who thinks DE invented inventory in FPS calls me a zoomer, sweet
oh cool, so you're resorting to strawmen now lmao
fuck off kid
Colton Kelly
items: you find them, they go in the inventory. You use them, they're lost
like Tome of Power in Heretic
grenades, flame belch, blood punch: it's a permanent upgrade, you get it in the campaign and they're always with you and you can use them infinite amount of times
tl;dr you dum
Brody White
According to Wikipedia, he was a designer for DN3d, so perhaps that explains why they felt comfortable working with him.
Blake Bell
>redefines what hotkey items are as a last resort
lmao get fucked
Isaac Scott
crucible is literally just a superweapon like bfg, you can run around with it and attack monsters/air
might as well call bfg and item. or duke's shotgun idk
Jace Watson
This will be your only (you).
I'm here to tell you that your attempt to troll was pretty pathetic. Too bold, too upfront, and the 'mutt' thing doesn't offend people the way you thought it does.
Be more subtle next time.
Robert Bell
bfg still eats ammo when you shoot it
the crucible does not
either way it's irrelevant
Benjamin Torres
>the crucible does not
When it doesn't hit the enemy yeah, because that would be just cruel on a melee weapon
James Mitchell
bought the BIA series the other day
surprised it was by gearbox
seems too gritty and un-cucked to be a gearbox game
Joshua Carter
YOU ALIEN BASTARDS SHOT DOWN MY RIDE
Austin Perry
George Broussard believed that Duke was supposed to be a serious macho man. And I 100% agree because it's way better sounding and funnier than the goofy persona he has nowadays.
Here's a clip from a build from 2009 with a line that remained in the final game in a re-recorded form: youtube.com
Here's the same voice clip in the final game with different delivery: youtube.com
The same can be applied to the recent release of Duke Nukem 3D. All the rerecorded lines sound horrible compared to the original when it comes to delivery. basically 3D Realms directed every voice session and had Jon St. John grind his teeth while Gearbox let him loose in the voice booth because "he knows Duke".
Levi Smith
yeah but can doomfag or whatever they call him in nu-doom race around drop kicking monsters like duke nukem could?
no?
then it's sadly going BACKWARDS in development
