I really miss old time FPS heroes

What ever happened to badasses like duke and doomguy who kicked ass and could run for miles never tiring?

Not to mention there's no creative enemies anymore now it's just terrorists or russians.

Duke 3D had fucking alien pig cops for god's sake.

Nowadays you play as some random literally who soldier who is too human for his own good and can only run for a solid 10 seconds before barfing his lungs out.

What the fuck happened?

Duke is the fucking most entertaining character in Samara for me.

I don't know why but it's such a strange breath of fresh air to hear your character speaking after playing a silent protagonist for so long.

Idk it just feels strangely good to hear a sound other than the usual grunts of pain.

Plus his quips are sometimes hilarious and so fucking satisfying.
