The end of an Era - Duke Nukem Forever Went Gold!

[Multidirectional]

How would you rate it against DA2?

Probably about as boring. I played even less of that one, because I never expected it to get good since I was bored by Origins too. I lasted longer in DNF hoping it would get fun at some point. But it's just depressingly inept at pretty much everything it tries to do. Whoever had power to decide it was suitable to release it in this stage is a pretty dangerous motherfucker.

 

[Ermm]

So, what is the real length of the game?

 

[Jack]

So... is it worth torrenting acquiring?

No, it's too tainted by the consoles and feels very unpolished. It's not worth it.

Tainted by consoles blah blah.. Except most console games, yes even new ones, are a lot more fun than DNF. This is shitty on way more levels than consolisation or lack of polish. Play only if you
want to find out how exactly awful it is.

It does indeed have more problems than that, but those are the ones that hurt the most for me. I don't doubt that console shooters can be much better than duke, but it seems to me that they copied some of the worst features of past console shooters such as the regenerating health, Bloody Screen, So Real! and a dozens of other things that really drags this game down.
The only good things about this game is stuff from Duke Nukem 3D, such as enemy design, weapons and such.

How would you rate it against DA2?

DA2 is worse, but only thanks to gay elves and repeated dungeons.

So, what is the real length of the game?

About five hours perhaps? Maybe even less.

 

[Sceptic]

Why does Sceptic have something in his sig which i never said?

Because I lifted it as is when it was said and saved it for posterity and its time came in my rotation. Since search is borked and I want to allow for the possibility I made a mistake I'll leave it off for now until I can find it (depending on how long it takes google to update the search cache), with the understanding that if I do find it it will be reposted again for a much longer time and with a very unflattering addendum. Nobody can say I'm not fair.

I am a man of my word.

Hey, look what I just found after DU re-enabled search!
