Its fatal flaw is that it tries, unsuccessfully, to blend the modern style of shooter with retro sensibilities. In spite of the extensive time spent in development, Duke Nukem Forever feels painfully unfinished and shockingly uninspired. It would have been utterly disappointing in 1997, let alone 2011. It is one of the most lacking, uninspired, and outright inadequate games of our times, unsuccessfully attempting to cover its staid construction with nostalgia afforded by the series’ former glories. With the complete product finally in my 24-year-old hands, a celebratory occasion in itself after such a tumultuous development, I can safety say that such anticipation was completely and entirely undeserved.ĭuke Nukem Forever should have never been released. I was a virginal, bespotted 11-year-old when the game was originally announced in 1997, desperately eager for a continuation of the off-colour humour and explorative design I adored in Duke Nukem 3D.
So, after 14 years in development, Duke Nukem Forever actually happened.
