A lack of bubblegum and a lot of ass kicking.

I've got balls of steel!
But I am all out of bubblegum?
I gonna jerk off to featureless crotch!
Interactive environment
Non-linear maps to explore (still has early fps keycard roadblocks)
Large selection of weapons
Working mirrors
Duke's funny remarks when you blow up aliens.
Get out of vent or I'll have you bent
I find bubblegum to be highly unpleasant
Build engine jank and toxic masculinity overdose.
Put the bombs inside the tram and blow the pigs up when they get on. Most games wouldn't even let you do that because of loading screens and shit. It's actually funny how much better nukem is compared to modern trash.
worst of the big 3
RTX in 1996.
Tits.
Evil Dead and Dirty Harry references.
I'm here to KICK ASS and KICK ASS, and I'm all out of KICK ASS
A fantastic shooter, but one not without flaws.
It's about even with Shadow Warrior. But Lo Wang's guns are a bit more nuanced.
It'd be a lot better without
*VREEEEEEEE*
Could be worse:
Getting killed by a door at some point and a good time if you like these kinds of games.
Doors make them easy
Is Alien Armageddon too hard or am I just too bad
Something you should have played a long time ago. A timeless classic.
Fuck don't remind me.
Doom got a revival. When do we get Duke revival? or would it be too controversial to keep Duke as a womanizer and have strippers around?
Shadow Warrior > Douk > Blood
don't @me
For me, it’s Water World
youtu.be
You are tiny grasshopper.
I don't have time to play with myselllf.
Duke has a better level design than other 2
Wanton Destruction maps are actually great but Duke still beats it
It is hard and a bit bloated too. I don't get all of these "classic shooter but BETTERER" mods where the number of inputs, items and weapons like quadruples even if it makes no real difference to have like a weapons menu where you choose the firing rate of a pistol or attach a silencer or have five different arrow t or four weapons occupying the same weapon slot or three different settings for a rocket launcher, an objectives menu, a shop/upgrades menu with like variants for armor, a separate weapons upgrade system and all these bells and whistles when they look goofy as shit and feel awful crammed into EDuke.
I admit I'm mainly talking about Project Brutality/AMCTC but Alien Armageddon has those parts too.
Where do Redneck Rampage and William Shatner’s Tekwar rank?
Only like 2.5/4 of Duke's default campaigns are good.
lets be honest a new duke nukem game would suck, it would be handled by gear box
There's a good reason people say "the build 3" and not "the build 5."
SW = Ion maiden = douk = blood > redneck rampage > NAM = WW2GI > DOS version of powerslave >>>>> witchaven = tekwar >>>>>>>> extreme paintbrawl
Randy would 100% make him say anti-trump lines, or become pro communist or something. Maybe make him a feminist and have a female sidekick upstage him or something.
yeah. its best the franchise stays dead unless someone else gets involved instead
JSJ would do that all on his own
1) Gearbox
2) Randy Pitchford
3) 3D realms no longer has the rights
4) Gearbox and Randy Pitchford.
They genuinely hate Duke, why else would they take down the megaton edition, shove out a shoddy source port and sit on the 2001 build of Forever for so long?
John isn't a game dev, and he certainly doesn't have a say in scripts. But yeah, he's a faggot.
It baffle me how zoom-platform is the one with the best version of Duke nukem.
Seeing stuff regarding the 2001 build shows that people who knew what Duke Nukem is about are no longer the arbiters of making Duke Nukem content. The fact that the Forever we got is about Duke being a washed up hasbeen and makes a joke about his chicks (HIS CHICKS SPECIFICALLY) being impregnated and killed by the aliens shows that wholeheartedly.
Randy doesn't hate Duke, he clings to it because he's a narcissist and recognizes Duke's status as a permanent video game icon. He goes around blustering about owning Duke even though his only contribution to the legacy was a handful of maps. It's genuinely embarrassing listening to the director commentary of World Tour (or the couple clips I heard on Youtube, since I refuse to play his shitty version) because Randy keeps handling the interviews, trying to imply his central involvement in the making of the franchise.
There is one of those commentary nodes where they say without saying that Randy is shit at making maps.
Going by his Shadow Warrior levels that is absolutely true.
As for "why," it's obvious Randy wants to phase out any modern version of D3D Gearbox isn't collecting cash on. And I think he's afraid the 2001 build will be hailed as the superior game, which might impact profits or perception of the release version of DNF (since Gearbox was heavily involved in this version, and not the scrapped one). It all boils down to money and narcissism.
I will credit him for Seppuku Station. It might be nostalgia talking, since it was the very first map and the one I absolutely played the most, only owning the shareware for years. But it's comfy.
Any good Douk mods?
If you don't play Duke Nukem 3D...
MEN
It's Impossible
Area 51
Seppuku Station
Dark Woods of the Serpent
A broken clock or some such.
GET OFF MY VENT
Hell ya.

Play on the shadow warrior engine.
Pc gamer article of tons of mods.

Also appears to be a splitscreen mod.
Gonna have to see what I can get working.
balls
Episode 1 is the best one and the other ones are weaker imo
It could've been fun if they made duke some out of time turbo boomer and lampooned PC politics but it feels like the time to do that is way dead.
EAT SHIT AND DIE
Episode 2 is so much closer to Doom, it may be the first levels they made.
I dunno, i wouldn't even mind if Randy was a talentless hack about it and just did something like the nu ID Studio formula. Obviously I'd like something more original than just doom eternal clone, but it's better than Duke just staying in this permanent no games position. That's how Painkiller has to survive now.
