Gamers decide if we wanna play another Duke Nukem game, not you.

“Shake it, Baby”

I still really enjoy Duke Nukem.. Product of its time but it's just so ridiculous and over the top it transcends offensiveness and goes straight into mindless comedy

If they can turn Lo Wang into a likable character, they can salvage Duke Nukem, especially since the established character in the platform games was actually pretty entertaining. Find the right devs, strike a balance between him being a meathead and a human being, give him plenty of ridiculous things to react to, have

Why is there all the hate for Duke Nukem? You can enjoy the humor of Duke and not be onboard with people behaving that way in real life. 

yeah, and it likely will.  Gearbox can make some decent first person shooters.

You do realize that it was a passion project right with plans on reviving the franchise, modernizing it, and keeping vidya gayme history alive. I mean, this site was quite positive on it way back when.

Even as a parody of action heroes of the era, Duke Nukem the character—a brash asshole who revels in misogyny and toxic masculinity—just doesn’t work anymore.

Counterpoint if all fiction was based on blandly politically correct people it would be very boring and have very little actual meaning.

Just going to leave this here..

games like these still work not everyone is a precious snowflake

They’ll probably fuck it up though. It’s EA. It’s what they do. :(

You’re not powerless though. Over a million people yelled at them about BF2, and we ended up getting a MASSIVELY improved game over a relatively short time span.

If it's "multiplayer focused" I'm expecting a bunch of season pass bullshit with skins and 4 types of currency.

Hey, I am powerless too. Lets band together and be slightly less powerless.


Don’t fuck it up, don’t fuck it up, Don’t fuck it up, don’t fuck it up,
Don’t fuck it up, don’t fuck it up, Don’t fuck it up, don’t fuck it up,
Don’t fuck it up, don’t fuck it up, Don’t fuck it up, don’t fuck it up,
Don’t fuck it up, don’t fuck it up, Don’t fuck it up, don’t fuck it up,
Don’t fuck it up, don’t fuck

Probably a multiplayer game from the sounds of it. I wouldn’t get my hopes up for a story/campaign X-Wing style :(

It’s irrelevant to the larger issue at hand, which is the systemic racism and cops murdering black folks in our country, which is absolutely a massive problem.

I agree that his criminal history is irrelevant, though I do find it a bit disturbing that random people who never knew him are idolizing him in murals and such. Honestly, the only thing that matters in this case is the color of his skin and the fact that he was killed by a white cop. Barring his friends and family,
