DUKE NUKEM FOREVER

Conclusions

Is Duke Nukem Forever a good game? It is a fact that it has received tremendous criticism from the overwhelming majority of professional critics, unfairly so. DNF is a strong game, well-made and with many beautiful touches. It is a fact that the creators worked very hard to produce this game. This is evident in many aspects, from the beautifully detailed graphics to the long duration of the single player mode and the rich multiplayer, etc.

DNF is a game in which you will have the opportunity to do everything that most men - boys would love. It is a flexible, entertaining, and very rich game, and its beauty lies in its simplicity. DNF is not aimed at women. There are scenes that would bother and annoy most women, especially the more feminist ones.

If you missed the cult game Duke Nukem 3D, then with this title you will enjoy a somewhat similar experience as Forever is considered a continuation of 3D. Many things, such as some weapons, have been taken from that title. Despite the similarities between the two, DNF offers a unique experience that you won't find in any other modern shooter.

Duke Nukem Forever is not a game for everyone's taste. It is rather aimed at nostalgic thirty and forty-year-olds of the golden age of Duke Nukem, rather than younger ages. Personally, I believe that a young person or teenager who plays today's FPS games will have very little to no interest in this particular title, especially if they are not familiar with the hero Duke Nukem.

Note that DNF does not officially support Windows 8, at least not from the publisher 2K Games. However, it works fine on Windows 10, which is the most important thing.

If you are a fanatical Duke Nukem fan and follow him faithfully in every adventure, you can buy the Balls of Steel special edition. This comes in a large box and contains many goodies such as a statue of the hero and Duke Nukem comics that those who buy it will engage with for a long time.

I highly recommend Duke Nukem Forever to all old friends of Duke Nukem and I believe it will thrill them. If you belong to the younger generation who did not experience this hero, try it for a different taste of FPS and to see how shooters have evolved over the years.
