Duke Nukem Forever

[Reincarnate]

What a disappointment. And I say this as someone who went into the game with low expectations despite having played all the DN games when I was younger in addition to wasting HOURS on DN3D and making levels in the Build engine. I knew that it was going to be clunky -- I mean, the damn thing took 14 years to make.

But it's just a bad game, and no amount of nostalgia saves it. It's like they removed everything that made DN3D great and stuck in a bunch of Call of Duty gameplay metrics and peppered the environment with aliens. The humor is also utter crap. Like another review stated, it's like watching your uncle tell racist jokes at Thanksgiving and you're just praying that someone will tell him to knock it off, but in DNF, you're the uncle.

Instead of starting the game and being put right into the action, you get to waste a bunch of time walking around this long, boring introductory house/movie set sequence. Snore.

Even the battles feel dull. Ungh.

What a shit game. Very unworthy of being a sequel to DN3D.
