Really ugly.
And trying way, waaaaay too hard.
Wasn't that the point of the games though?
To just be completely over the top and insane?

Sure. But don't you don't have to make a big deal out of it.

I think that I sort of know what you mean, BN-- the original games were over-the-top insanity for its own sake, but it almost seems like the new one is saying "Ok, let's be over-the-top to imitate the other games, but we're basically just trying to copy them." That's how it seems to me, at least.

A right proper chap.
I uh... don't know what to think. I guess it doesn't help that Prodigy are one of my favourite bands and Invaders Must Die kicks pretty much any trailer up to 11 so I may be a little biased.
Though it does have that nasty shininess reminiscent of the id tech 4 engine.

Well it does have the Duke Nukem vibe but I fear this game will suffer a lot from 'consolitis'.
It has auto health and weapons are limited to just two at the same time.
That already makes it average for me.

I like some of the stuff, don't like some of the other stuff. I like the elements that scream "old-school shooter" cause I've been looking for something that's just laid-back fun since the failure of Serious Sam 2. On the other hand, there seems to be too much stuff that's somehow required of modern shooters - vehicles etc. - that I don't really like that much.
What I am bit worried about Ausdoerrt is that they will try to tell yet another 'complex' storyline with all kinds of NPCs we have never seen before and really don't care about.
Its Duke Nukem, it doesn't need to be Shakespeare, or even a regular Hollywood movie.
We want to have fun exploring and shooting and not be reminded of some storyline that keeps pulling at our shirt.

Didn't they said that the car part was kind of me-he when it was playable the last time?
I'll guess I will not like the driving parts as well, because... I don't like driving parts in games.

2001 heh. I still can remember in the 1997 or 98 when they anounced the Duke.
Exactly my feelings. Autoheal is the cancer of shooters and quest-arows the AIDS of RPGs ...

I don't hate auto-heal as much as I hate the wpn limitation. That kind of limit has only ever been applicable to historical shooters that try to be realistic. Part of the fun of the other shooter type (including Duke) was the 4th dimension backpack that fit a dozen of ridiculous weapons. These days, Unreal Tournament is probably the only game remaining that still does that.

Resistance 1&3 (not 2 though, one of the reasons it sucked) have all the weapons available at once.
I'm not a lover of FPSs but I'll keep an eye on Duke. If it is as fun as Duke3D I'll buy it.

I'm fine with auto-heal and limited weapons. This is by far the only instance in which I'm willing to excuse it because, well.
It's fucking Duke.
It's fucking Duke.

It sure is ugly but it has a very good old vibe about it. Nowadays games are all about being taken seriously. Even comedy in games is striving to be on a certain level. This just feels fun. For games by gamers type of vibe... did I just say that?
