It’s extremely violent, sexist, and crude. Meanwhile, the single-player campaign is supposedly a meaty 15 hours or longer, so there’s definitely plenty of content available on that front.ĭuke Nukem Forever is not for gamers with delicate sensibilities. Though I didn’t get to try them out, four multiplayer modes will be available in Duke Nukem Forever: classic Dukematch (Deathmatch), Team Dukematch, Capture the Babe (Flag), and King of the Hill.
Practically every corner of the neon-soaked city is populated with Duke’s burly visage, which is definitely appropriate for "the world’s greatest hero." I also quite liked Forever’s color palette the game eschews the grays and browns of most modern first-person shooters in favor of a range of yellows, reds, greens, and blues. While the game is slightly lacking on a technical level, it’s stylistically sound. I played a three-month old build, however the game’s assistant producer told me the final product will have an extra layer of polish not present in the demo. Forever’s visuals are far from atrocious, but they’re not very impressive for a game in development for 15 years, either. Unfortunately, it doesn’t quite look the part. Duke Nukem Forever is one visceral, bloody game.
In fact, all of the guns, from the M1911 pistol to the three-barrel ‘Ripper’ machine gun, are a joy to shoot. The sheer knockback factor of each shot - the aliens go flying when they’re hit - is tremendously gratifying.
Luckily, Duke’s trusty shotgun is capable of turning their slimy hides into lifeless corpses. RunHtml5Fallback(‘gorillanationPlayer_psu002_playlist_26_psu002_single_288425’, ‘html5_vid_psu002_playlist_26_psu002_single_288425’) Įventually, Duke “de-shrinks” and is forced to face a crew of flying, teleporting aliens. These sequences were relatively rudimentary, but nonetheless provided a nice change of pace from the tireless run-and-gun action offered elsewhere in the game. Occasionally, I hit a roadblock and was forced to exit the car to perform a platforming puzzle. In this segment, I weaved around the feet of giant aliens and launched off of environmental jumps to progress. Also, if you perform an execution on an enemy - which typically involves smashing them into oblivion with Duke’s rock-hard fists - you’ll return to maximum ego.įurther on in the game, Duke shrinks down to toy soldier size and drives an RC-car around the ground floor of the Ladykiller casino. Since the environments are populated with tons of interactive elements - many of which provide ego boosts - it’s valuable to take your time and thoroughly explore each locale. Performing actions like lifting weights, hitting punching bags, playing pool and pinball, and admiring oneself in the mirror all raise Duke’s maximum ego the first time they’re executed. The fee to join the group is 300L.Duke’s health is measured by his ego.
