Duke Nukem Origin Story in the works? Perhaps.

I like it when people use the word "gay" in any context other than a homosexual one - it only proves that they have the maturity of a five year old, as if their obsession with shooters didn't already do a good job of pointing that out. It's also pretty amusing that he pointed out Skyrim considering the fact that, y'know, it's set in the bloody medival era and doesn't even have muskets, let alone generic modern firearms.

But just for fun, let's play around with his logic a bit.

game - gun = gay
game + gun = -gay
game + gun + Arem = ???

Gearbox soliciting Duke Nukem Forever Feedback

This is to gauge gamers' (not journalists, because we all know they know about as much about gaming as I do about fixing a car) reaction to the game and what they can improve on in future titles. Of note is that they also apparently released a patch for the PC version of the game that lets you carry more guns. In my opinion, one of the three or four things that broke the game for me just got fixed, so that's a plus.

In singleplayer only, mind you. Multiplayer is still restricted to only two guns mainly because the entirety of their weapon balancing depended on it.

To be honest, most of the major flaws I could associate with DNF is Gearbox attempting to release a game based largely off 3DRealms's table scraps, so as long as they're making a game complete from scratch next time I can't see there being any such terribly huge problems. They could stand to make boss fights a lot less shit though. The majority of them were extremely boring and clumsy, and making them immune to everything but explosives certaintly didn't help.

EDIT: Also, I'm a little late, but

Was that ever even referred to beyond the first game? The only thing I've ever heard like it was in the intro to Duke II, and even then it was nothing more than a secret exploding tooth that he used to break out of his cell. I always just assumed he was a natural badass or something.

I think that in Duke II it gave him super strength to bust out. Either way, yeah, I'm pretty sure that by 3D, they'd completely forgone that concept...or maybe not because we'll never really know what 3DRealms was planning with Dr. Proton when they were originally working on DNF.

Already looking forward to this more than the original DNF. At least this way the dev hell that 3DRealms became so infamous for won't be a factor this time, though I'd still rather they made a new game rather than releasing DLC for an outdated, poorly optimized UE2.5 game.

Now we're talking, this is what we were supposed to get YEARS ago, fukyer. Also, I swear I came up with the concept for the basic story when I was like, in the 7th grade (cloning would've been a good "plot" for the multiplayer).

Remember how Gearbox kept stealing money from Sega to use on other projects when they should've been developing Colonial Marines? Guess who else they owed money?

Anyone expect Gearbox to get sued into non-existence anytime soon?
