You just posted cringe

[OpenMaw]

I say again.

Duke Nukem in a Duke Nukem game where Duke Nukem is Duke Nukem and the game outright fucking ignores the utterly ridiculous level of pussdom in the world right now. Big guns, bit titties, explosions, amazing level design that requires you to think and learn to navigate, a full fledged inventory with items designed to augment the gun-play, an emphasis on Duke being an action hero torn from the celluloid of a Hollywood Action movie. That's the recipe that the next Duke Nukem game needs.

Reminds me the president in DNF is like the one from "Mars Attacks!"

[OpenMaw]

Except for he wasn't trying to betray the human race, and he was, as far as presidents go, pretty competent, and he was Jack Goddamn Nicholson.

That's not an idea for a game, that's an idea for a fanfic.

[gemeaux333]

But both presidents have something in common : they are uncapable of taking a single decision by themselves, especially any that is filled with common sense...

What about Duke Nukem the Immersive Sim

[Svanis]

Everyone always seems to forget that Duke is also Elvis, a.k.a The King. Just look at his lip on the cover arts. Couldn't there be a plot that explores this further?

I never saw the Elvis thing with that lip, but Rihanna's Rude Boy video did make me think of it slightly;

Randy chatted about the Duke Nukem Collection again on a livestream recently:

https://twitter.com/...010192659771393

He's saying there's content that Gearbox's head of publishing, Steve Gibson, wouldn't feel comfortable publishing over concerns of racism and sexism in the external expansions/adds-on from Sunstorm and reiterated that the DNF builds aren't what people imagine them to be.

Despite that, he says he's made an effort to reach out to people involved in the project to package it up (though he suggests they lost enthusiasm after realizing how much work it would be) and claims to be "putting his thumb on that scale" to move the project ahead.

It is 2020, can we just forget?

Steve Gibson can suck dicks.

[stumppy84]

So life’s a beach is sexist? Don’t you wear bikinis on a beach?

[Radar]

Because when I play Duke DC and Caribbean, I know these expansions were made for the white man.

[gemeaux333]

Can anyone see the stream ?

[Fox]

It's not racist in what a normal person would define as racist. It's the "island people" stereotype.

Dumb reasoning, nonetheless. Pixel cleavage still edgy in 2020.

[gemeaux333]

Is Steve Gibson a SJW ?

[Radar]

Anyone with any control over the Duke IP is either an SJW, a pacifist with their head in the sand, or too much of a coward to do anything. Though I probably just described the entire video game industry in general.

[gemeaux333]

DUKE'S SIDEKICK MUST DIE !

...
Duke's (politically correct) sidekick : "Whatch out Duke, you're going to offend the machines, the aliens and the babes !"

Duke Nukem : "If you're affraid of taking risks and offending peoples, then put diappers and go back to kindergarden !"
...

[hismasterplan]

The last thing Randy said was "There's actually going to be some news on Duke Nukem pretty soon."

I can't recall what would be considered racist in the expansion packs. As far as sexism, again Duke isn't allowed to exist because of "sexism" but many others are allowed the same humor and prosper. Don't know where that mindset started.... Actually, Duke is the only franchise with self-awareness when it comes to "babes." It's parody so I would think Duke Nukem is in the clear.

[gemeaux333]

Recently, someone twitted Randy : "How would you feel about making an Unreal 4 engine powered Duke Nukem game ?" and he responded : "Tell me about it !"

So Randy and Gearbox are secretly working on a Duke Nukem project ? I wouldn't be surprised if it were anounced 10 days before its actual release, just like the new XCOM game (Chimera Squad)

Oh for fuck's sake.

[Ninety-Six]

Okay I know I commented already but I have a few questions.

1.) Racism? How? Some island temple that never showed literally any sort of "primitives" at all ever?

2.) Sexism? The women in bikinis? The vanilla game had actual strippers that you could tp to get them to open their tops. And Forever, which Gearbox published had actual topless women and you take offense now?

3.) If there was concern about political incorrectness, why did Gearbox buy the Duke Nukem franchise and publish several games with it?

4.) What the fuck does any of this have to do with D.C.?!

I'm sorry; I usually don't get this heated. But the more I think about it, the angrier I get over how bumfuck braindead this is.

Exactly. And why should it matter? The audience that Duke appeals to doesn't care about offending either side, they just care about a kick ass game.

[gemeaux333]

perhaps Steve Gibson see in D.C. american imperialism in bar...

oddly he doesn't seem to have these issues with Borderlands...

i love double standards!
