Its not doom 3 was actually a good game, just not the game people expected while forever is ''OK'' at best. Doom 3 is made with a lot of care from the ground up, while forever was just duct taped to be released quickly. I finished forever few days ago, I'm not a duke nukem fan but im a huge 3D shoter fan. Duke nukem 3d was a good game, with the ocasional one liners and crazyness in the background. While forver is one liners and crazyness up front in the background there is a game. I usualy blitz through games like this and enjoy it so much i forget what time it is. But forever constantly felt off, after half an hour i start to lose intrerest. But my OCD's force me to march on. Its not terrible but it is bad.

By time Doom 3 was made, the genre of First Person Horror-themed Shooters had absolutely raised the bar and a game that was just another Doom game would've been stupid since Half-Life 2 came out the same year, Quake 4 was right around the corner and FPSes as a whole were just about to be set to a new standard with Call of Duty. If Doom 3 released today, it would've been seen in the same light as many people see Duke Nukem Forever, which is why DOOM going back to it's roots works so well at this point. tl;dr : Doom 3 is a Doom game at it's core but also knew what the popular trend in Horror FPS games was at the time.

I don't think DNF was terrible, I just think they got a little carried away with the scripted events. Having some cinematic driven levels is okay, but once in a while it needs to take a backseat and let the player just explore and enjoy the level, find secrets and so on. DNF was a step in the right direction but it's not quite there yet...I Hope they listen to the feedback and make Duke Begins the definitive Duke title.

Real reason why DNF didn't work was because of the difference in time. We don't have any more people like Arnold and Stallone in movies and pop culture nowadays so many people who pick up the title now won't appreciate it since we live in a more "PC" defined culture. Its a shame people won't give the game a chance, but the game itself doesn't help since the console ports were *very* unpolished.

To the health pack vs regenerating health, I have to say this: It erases higher strategy. With medkits, picking them up when you only have a few HP missing can prove to bite you back later, and scavenging supplies in order to get back to full health is a skill you have to learn. Also, regeneration makes the outcome of a single fight binary - either you live (back to full HP) or you die (and have to try again). Compare this to winning a fight with almost no health left, making you have to deal with the consequences. It's not about realism, it's about strategy and complexity being removed. At least to me.

In 2011 I'd tend to agree with your review, but after the Interceptor ROTT remake and Shadow Warrior 2013. DNF feels like a cop-out for its failure to fully embrace the classic game mechanics that made Duke 3D shine. DNF is too slow the levels are shallow and the weapon and health system is straight out of Call of Duty 4.

personally I am still not enamored with the new doom. The upgrade system, the forced finisher system, level design and teleporting enemy encounter design just throw me. It is far from a bad game, but I just don't feel like I am playing doom. It lacks colour and impact for me. Honestly, a change in level design to be more reminiscent of the original game's philosophy and not having 90% of the enemies in the game just spawn in would have me feel more accepting of it. Same with DNF actually, weakest point of the game for me was the limited weapons and the horrid linear level design. It could just be me... But the level design of DN3D was why I loved it. There was so much variety and thought put into every stage.

The problem with Duke Nukem Forever is exactly what Ben "Yahtzee" Croshaw said it was. The game wasn't terrible, but it wasn't great either. Which is the worst thing it could have been. Duke Nukem 3D was already maximum 80s/90s action hero satire, so Duke feels dated already. The worst part though is that the game is just mediocre, there couldn't have been a worse result than that. If the game was truly terrible, we'd love hating on it. On the other hand if it had been great we'd love it for being more great Duke Nukem. Instead it was mediocre with a massively jarring tone shift near the end of the game. What little love was left with our nostalgia with Duke faded into apathy. The one liners were stale and the game was bog standard uninspired shooter fare for the time. So instead of anger for a bad game, or joy for a great game, all we had was bitterness for a game that failed to stand out at all.

The game became incredibly boring to the point where I just couldn't finish the campaign. The god awful driving sections, boring puzzles, incredibly linear levels with barely any exploration, the gameplay feels clunky, health regen(we don't want the game to be too hard), pointless dialogue and "sign this autograph!" that you aren't able to skip, a lot of useless weapons, the game holding your hand and shoving the weapon with infinite ammo at your face, and the list goes on that makes this less like Duke Nukem 3D and more like a half assed generic shooter. Probably the only level I actually enjoyed was Duke Burger.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but this review is not mentioning three very obvious and big issues with the game: - There is no shooting for the first 30-45m of gameplay ... WTF ! - There is no/hardly any level-interactivity after the first Duke Tower level. - Most of the levels feel like restricted-corridors instead of open levels like the original Duke 3D. Also, the given reason for the only 2 weapon-slots is just BS; 'technical challenging for consoles' ? Those consoles are still at least 10 times faster than the fasted PC 20 years ago and it worked just fine back then ...

Thanks for giving this a fair review. Like you, I am a big Duke fan since the 90s, so I was delighted when he got a modern take. My only real issue with it was the length, but the Dr. Proton DLC helps and gives it a satisfying conclusion. I'm glad the Duke won't just be remembered as a 90s franchise.

+Lazy Game Reviews Another great Video... Never understood the hate for this game (Though I never played it myself...) - I enjoyed Duke 3D back in the day, and while times have moved on... Well, you said it your self!!! "it's Duke Nukem, your argument is invalid" I found most critics complained about the out of date humour and vulgarity that was acceptable in the 80's but not now... Yet many of these same reviewers (Never good to have cameras in your workplace when there are obvious links to your taste in MOVIES!!!!) were big fans of franchises such as SCARY MOVIE and other Wayans Brothers flicks!!! Talk about making your own critique invalid!!! IGN one of the biggest culprits there... Any Duke fan goes into the games knowing what to expect... They will be sexist, rude, crude, vulgar, dumb... Thats Duke Nukem!!! Simple!

I got this game for 20 bucks, came with all the cool stuff like the bust, comic book, dice.... poker chips .... (I really think 2K got a bit carried away with all the extra stuff. I was also hoping one of the king of hearts on the playing cards would be duke wearing a crown) Anyway, yeah, it's not great, but if it didn't have Duke Nukem staring in it, it would be a much more dull game. I think it was trying to be both old school FPS and the newer FPSs, with simplified level design with less back-tracking for keycards or whatever, I think the game would have been better if they tried to just make a game like Duke Nukem 3D, but just use the latest graphics engine. It's not bad, but it's defenately not as good as 3D, not by a long shot. Still very enjoyable to play, like you say, Clint, but honestly I think 3D and it's expansion packs are WAY better, which is sort of disappointing, but I think this game gets more crap than it deserves. We should concentrate our collective crap swinging on more deserving games.

WesleyB Crowen It's a tragedy. They spent 14 years making a pile of shit. There were so many fanboys defending this game when it first came out, even they gave up on defending it because they don't like it. It's just a generic bore fest, there's nothing notable or interesting about it at all. I have no beef with Jon St. John but a game needs more than witty one liners. His voice made Duke 3D stand out from the crowd, but that was back in 1996 when no FPS game had a voice. These days, your player having a voice is common place. As is interactivity. All their "novel" ideas are antiquated and don't hold up in the modern era.

Hm. This review of the previous duke games and this one actually makes this game okay. It's not a betrayal of design or anything like that as Duke has gone through many changes and as you noted. It hasn't really been gone for over a decade. We've just been waiting for this particular title for a awhile. So this is a perfectly good game although Yathzee was right when he said that the game was doomed by the long wait we had to see it released. I don't know if we'll ever get another Duke game but I think his franchise went pretty well.

I like this review. I respect you for being fair and going against the grain from the duke purists. My only complaint is that there wasn't much incentive to hunt down and kill everything and unlock all the secrets. One of my faves about duke nukem 3D was the fact that you looked for secrets to deck yourself out at the beginning of the episode, and if you died in level 1-2 then you lost everything you worked to grab in 1-1, but it was no big deal since you found the secrets yourself and now you could speedrun the level along with collecting all the secret goodies your friends never knew about, then you can watch their jaw drop when they realize there's a freaking RPG ready for you before you even empty your first clip of pistol ammo if you're crafty. Exploring and breaking levels is fun (I remember breaking the shit out of Halo levels) and I miss the games that reward you for this stuff. For me, Serious Sam seems like the best spiritual successor for the oldschool FPS anyways since they seemed to carry those concepts very well in to a full 3D FPS in "second encounters", although something does seem off about the new one. Maybe it's the way they chose to handle their secrets? I can't put my finger on it so I can't be too hard on SS.

I'm curious what Clint's opinion of the game these days is. No offense to him, but I really think that this review isn't particularly great; it often comes across as a Duke fanboy writing off legitimate criticism and simply accepting it as automatically good because it's Duke and he was so hyped for the game. Given that he's become a far far better reviewer since this video, and we're over a decade separated from DNF's release, I really think that a re-review from his matured perspective nowadays would be great.

I never understood why people just expected that all that time in development hell should instantly equal the best game ever. Plenty of games go through development hell for many years but they weren't sequels so no one judges them on that. Its basically impossible to live up to all the ideas people imposed on this game- be cuttibg edge, yet old school, update Duke or keep him super crass... To me, though, I would've preferred them scrapping the DNF idea altogether and finding a different niche. I mean, imagine a quarter of a contemporary game development budget, an updated build engine, find the best old school level designers out there, give 'em a year and put the results on the indie marketplace/steam/IOS/android platforms at a low pricepoint and watch the praise roll in. At a low price point and tiny dev team, you don't have the expectations to crush.

Maybe DNF had less class, but its not as if the content in Duke Nukem doesn't have an audience if that's indeed what you're getting at. That style of explicit, immature humor still exists on Adult Swim and so much more. So, if that's you, fine. Personally, i'm not one to care about explicit crap that's there just to be explicit. I'm more into stupidity, observational humor and parody, like the Bale parody in DNF or a lot of stuff you'd find on South Park more recently (like the Game of Thrones and console war parodies). Its not funny only for being explicit. No. you need something else for to work. And that's one reason DNF failed. Some of the element came off as a bit too obnoxious. The 2001 trailer shows more an epic film presentation, which would mean the tone for the humor and parodies would be more in the style of DN3D or Time to Kill, where there's some form of balance between being epic and having all these other side gags.

I was recently playing DNF and this review really resonated. It isn't the greatest action game, but that isn't the point. It's like a time warp, of 90's humour, action and gaming retrofitted into a 2009-era game style. I found it has aged so, so well in a way that other games of the time (Modern Warfare anyone?) frankly haven't. I found myself in tears of laughter almost every minute... Even parts I would otherwise find boring were made up for by the amount of detail actually put into the little things, like the mini games

I feel like a lot of the critics and gamers who critiqued DNF so harshly had unrealistic expectations of a game that had been in development for a decade and a half. For a game which was conceptualized in the late 90s and wasn't completed until the late oughts, it turned out rather well. The important things are the gameplay and the spirit of Duke, which are both up to par. This is, for better or for worse, the logical successor to Duke Nukem 3D. Had it released in the late 90s, it would be looked upon just as favorably as the Half-Lifes and Halos of the world, but because its general concept was very much still in the decade its development began in, people treated it as though it was out of touch and irrelevant in the millenial generation of gaming. I think it's less telling of the game itself and more telling of the era of gaming it was eventually released in. Too late to be in the classic era, where it would have thrived, and too early to be a throwback, which it would be praised for having old school sentiment.
