Blow it out your ass

Duke you haven't been king for like 20 years, you also showed up drunk 10 years ago thinking you still were and humiliated yourself then. Please just go gracefully and don't puke on the sofa.

When's the Forever 1999 build gonna be released?

No one cares about the 2D games

"Your face, your ass, what's the difference?"

>>7915686
this is the only thing the Duke brand has going for it in 2021
If Randy found a way to package it up and sell I'm sure we'd get it

>>7915590
I pretty much pistol started the entirity of duke 3d over the past few weeks.
Its alot of fun to play that way

>>7915731
I did so too just recently and had a good time

>>7915751
Check out this mod its cool

https://www.moddb.com/mods/god-of-war

if you wanna play a cool fan episode. Heres this episode. Its called god of war.
It was released in 2001, it has a good amount of levels and 2 new weapons and few new enemies.
It replaces the freeze thrower with a flame thrower and uses a sprite from Life's a beach and replaces the expander with a weapon called the force gun
Its pretty good. All you have to do to play it is extract the folder to your eduke32 folder and run it from the eduke menu.

>>7915590
It's time to chew ass

>>7915812
I'm trying it out and it seems pretty cool, thanks for the recommendation

>>7915871

no doubt i always try to post more duke stuff for people to play

>>7915728
Randy hates Duke, so that's unlikely. Someone needs to run him over with a steamroller to get Duke out of limbo.

Happy Birthday Duke Nukum!

I recently finished playing this, it was pretty good.

Blow it out yer ass

>>7915963
shame since the level he's credited with is actually pretty good.

Anyone here own this? What's it like?

>>7917817
What, a computer? Yeah, it's pretty tight.

>>7917817
why does he look so wrinkly

>>7917820
I'd love to see the "keep politics out of muh vidya" faggots respond to this one. Although it's pretty funny he's lumping antifa with Nazi sympathizers.

>>7917820

Copycat? He's the real deal.

>>7917817
i'm still sad that in over 27 years, nobody has scanned and posted pic related.

and yeah, i know, outdated and all, but i still want to read it.

>>7918296
can't it be bought online?

Minority women need a good dicking too and Duke knows neo-nazi women are trash and good enough for alien scum

>>7915679
He wasn't king even when he was at least relevant. Quake destroyed his shitty franchise - should have stayed a side scroller.

>>7918350
duke hates the jews
check 'em

>>7916759
Duke it out in DC is mostly trash but I will always love that they made an X-Files themed map for it

>>7918296

How come I can play Douk on my Switch and not Quake if that’s the case?

>>7918445
Quake wasn't even a big success. Carmack admitted so

>>7918693
Cus Bethesda are fucking retarded.

>>7918693
>He doesn't play Quake on his switch
Lmao what a noob

>>7918826
I’m pretty sure Quake 1 is just a legal mess to port in regards to the NiN music.

>>7916759
No surprise there, Life's A Beach is one of the best expansions ever released.

>>7918832
If they can market PS1 Doom for having enhanced music they can market Switch Quake for having a new soundtrack.

>>7918831
This post gave me aids

>>7918832
I really hate that kinda shit. Something released 20 plus years ago has legal wrangling's over what i'm assuming is just straight up greed.
Like with Vice City, I forgot what band it was. But one of the artists for the radio music for vice city when it was rereleased was like
>i want 10 million dollars now for my song cause the game made xyz
If its not money whatever the reason is, its bs. they should make these deals when something is released, this is how it is forever,

>>7918997
Just fucking remove it and replace it. Who cares about the 1% of fucking autists that will bitch it's not 100% accurate. Like when Sega release Outrun nowadays with the Ferrari logo removed.
"Nooooooo it's heckin ruined! Literally unplayable!"

Just fucking rip the shit out. Like Sonic 3. They can't do shit cus Michael Jackson's music. Just fucking compose new tracks. Who gives a shit

>>7917817
>>7917820
Thats what he looks like in the movie clips at the end of each episode.
I think its kinda ironic that people would use a clip like that
>Duke hates racists and shit
When today the same people like that would complain about
>Duke being racist
at the same time. Its why they Gearbox won't release any of the Expansions on steam or any other platforms going on 5 plus years.
Seriously i looked it up and its like the shittiest reasons why they won't release them
>Nuclear winter
Duke kills feminist elves, so duke is a woman hater or something
>Duke Lifes a Beach
Shows a white man living a privileged life in the Caribbean where our poor POC are struggling

I'm dead serious those are the reasons Gearbox won't release it. There literally is no licensing issues. Thats a lie. When they released world tour, They also did the graphical updates and shit for the expansions and when they sent it over to gearbox publishing.
They secretly labeled duke a racist caricature and refused to release them.
Randy Pitchford went through some BS song and dance
>Well you know gearbox stands 100 percent behind the duke nukem franchise and every thing duke
>But its not up to me if this gets released or not, thats up to the publishing department

>>7919037
When you interact with the women in life's a beach they shake their tits.

Not allowed in nu-soi era.

>>7918445
>quake fags still unironically believe their shitty brown and boring doom clone with no soul can ever touch duke
Lmao id has and will never make a game half as good as duke 3D, cope bitch. Even the multiplayer was better

>>7919054
Its fuckin wack bro

Nobody cared about duke before DN3D.

It was never good.

>>7919267
>vice

No thanks. Don't want to hear about how problematic Duke Nukem is.

There's nothing celebrate, Duke's last chance was an abysmal failure and his franchise is now in ruin and held hostage by Randy Cringeford

I liked the game ATime to Kill and also Land of the Babe's intro

>>7917820
>Duke is anti-fascist
Wasnt there a print comic-book made shortly after DNF where he time-traveled back into WW2 france to kill Hitler who has allied with the aliens?

>>7919409
I don't think that says hes anti facist, more of a keeping the status quo kinda guy, cause it specifically calls out
>Nazi Sympathizers, racists, gay bashers, anarchists, terrorists, druggies, black marketeers

i'd say duke is more like
>Hulk Hogans
Wrestling character,
>TAKE YOU VITAMINS BROTHER
but also
>TITTIES
lol thats how i see duke.

>>7918296
>outdated
It tells you how to build stuff in the editor, everything from how to make sectors, to how to make explosions, or those rotating alien doors, etc. So that stuff would still be relevant. I suppose you can just find that info online, but it's good to have all that info condensed into one spot. I used to have that book as a kid in the 90s but it's long gone :( I made a few levels and was terrible and then other games like RTC came out so I forgot about the book

>>7919447
That is a hilarious comparison as Hulk Hogan is also 'cancelled' these days by the soi boy generation for being "problematic". He got basically booed out of the building at the past Wrestlemania by the modern beta male wrestling fans.

>>7919454
Haven't watched any new wrestling in years. That sucks man . But thats how i always saw duke like a over the top hulk hogan esqe type of dude

>>7919483
He's a 'pastiche'. An amalgamation of all the action heroes from pop culture.

People like to parrot he's a satirical parody. Which is fucking retarded. He's a celebration of the bombastic alpha male action hero tropes

>>7918445
You think people waited expectantly for Duke Nukem Forever for no good reason? Duke Nukem 3D was a fantastic game, and people wanted more, which is why DNF being such an unappologetic thunderturd pissed people off a lot.

>>7919085
Don't be a nigger, Quake was a fantastic game, and can very well measure up to Duke 3D.

>>7919513
I would actually say that Duke Nukem IS a parody, it's just that he's a very affectionate one, it's clear that the creators love what they're parodying and that Duke is genuinely supposed to be a cool character (which he also is), and at the same time a comedic one.

His personality, and the various Easter Eggs, are an intentional juxtaposition towards DN3Ds many dark and gloomy themes and detail (mass murder, horror, rape), he's the ridiculous self-absorbed asshole which contrasts, and makes sure the bleak themes aren't overbearing. He's a genuine macho badass action hero which you're confident will persevere and win against the evil aliens, so even if you laugh at him for admiring himself in the mirror and being so pleased with himself, you love him because he isn't some weak dipshit just filled with hot air, he's strong, capable, and can absolutely fucking do this, he can end the darkness.

The way he rips off the head from the Overlord and then literally sits down to take a shit down his neck (as he promised when the fight began), reading the news and whistling his own theme, is absolutely fucking ridiculous, and yet also completely badass. It's a perfect encapsulation of his character.

>>7919278
You joke, but that's exactly how the article starts out

>>7919841
>I would actually say that Duke Nukem IS a parody
Anyone going around spouting one-liners from "They Live" and the "Evil Dead" movies is usually a parody character, yeah.

>>7915751
Oh Fabino memes

>>7915686
The 1999 version quake 2 version doesnt exist, or is at least not finished. The 2001 unreal one however is 90% done and desperately needs to get leaked.

>>7919202
I did and I have sex.

>>7918445
Yeah Quake r0x0rz man but it didn't kill Duke. Only Duke could do that which he did by becoming vaporware.

>>7919257
Underrated mod and Smithsonian is an underrated level that I love. If you're going to come at me, you'd better have actually played and beaten the content in question.

>>7920990
What about em?

>>7920994
all bs. they just slapped together a few animations, a gane never existed. learn 2 internet hipstlets.

>>7918296
I got this fow Christmas when I was about 13, I remember sat in the back of the car reading about sectors and shit while mum filled up the car with gas
Back when I didn't have to worry about shit and just enjoy the game and the sprites and the fun of the level design.

>>7921338
I didn't care for Smithsonian Terror, but my brother loved it. It seems like it's a level you either love or you hate, nobody thinks it's just kind of ok.

>>7921495
Is that supposed to be Misato? Looks like ass! wtf Duke...

Why was Duke ever "the king" to people? Duke 3D is a one-hit wonder surrounded by mediocre-to-bad other entries. He's more like "Duke The Fluke"

>>7921831
Duke Nukem is all design, because the gameplay itself is like a janky Doom, never got why this series got so popular because Duke Nukem isnt even that memorable as a character.

>>7921907
Duke Nukem 3D is a superior, not janky, Doom. It's an undeniably great game. There just aren't any other standouts to deserve an ongoing reputation beyond Duke Nukem 3D. The 2D platformers were passable if ordinary. The 5th gen consoles games were okay TPSes, for their time and platforms. What is he supposed to be the king of?

>>7921338
>>7921707

Yesterday was honestly the first time i ever played Duke it out in DC. Not lying i swear lol. I ended up beating it getting 5 out of 7 secrets and over 160 kills.
Overall really great level imo but i could see how people got frustrated. Yellow key in a weird spot, level is kind of confusing.

saying something like that usually gets one killed around these parts
