Yay generic FPS with crude humor.
I honestly don't get the appeal of it. It was kind of mediocre then and it'll be about the same now. Honestly it doesn't seem like it's doing anything to stand out from the crowd or doing anything unique or different that other games like FUCKING BULLETSTORM to make it fun. Sad thing is Duke Nukem Forever is going to overshadow games that will be genuinely fun.
Not to mention the game doesn't even look that funny. A lot of the joke stopped being funny when fart jokes stopped being funny. These jokes probably wouldn't have been that funny in 97. And to make the humor "funny and current" they'll throw in memes that were never funny ever. That's the problem with characters whose humor were silly and childish over a decade ago, it tends not to mature very well.
Honestly if this game was released in 1997 or whenever the hell it was supposed ot be released, no one would care about it today and it would rarely be talked about. There are plenty of other older, more fun games that could probably get a new game and honestly be more fun than this.
For the record, I hope I'm wrong. I hope this is the best game ever because after being on hold for 12 years it fucking needs to be. But the screens and gameplay just reeks of generic. The ego system just sounds like a "edgy" health system honestly.
This game just looks like it's one huge fanservice game for the people on the nostalgia train.
But I don't speak train.
