I thought Bombshell was supposed to be blond, huge tits Californian type, kinda like Arnold's daughter from Last Action Hero, except with more Baywatch and bigger guns:

Ho wait, SJW developers.

Still, good times for those of us with a fetish for amputees and lobotomy patients.

You keep some of my favorite things out of this discussion. Don't you dare sully them!

I don't get the punk look that doesn't seem very Duke-esque at all.

It seems very Borderlands-esque though, so I guess I do get it.

I'm not usually a Diablo style game type of guy, but I almost want to buy this day one just to piss off feminists.

Grab the Codex by the pussy
Chick looks like Roguey's old avatar.

Roguey's old avatar was an alternate concept art piece of Jack from the Mass Effect series.

The Roguester is approximately as subtle as a bag of hammers in a washing machine on spin cycle.

This is another of the modern games which are labelled RPGs based on developer's claim that they are, not because of the feature set they posses.

It will probably be as much of an RPG as Shadow Warrior (the new one) is.
You get to choose which weapon to upgrade.

Not that this is bad, mind you, I actually don't want deep RPG machanics to get in the way in my Duke Nukem-style experience.
It just wouldn't be appropriate.

You choose which weapon to ugrade in Marlow Briggs and the Mask of Death, and that game is in no way an RPG.

If it's a fun action-packed gunnyslashy game with schlocky humour that doesn't take itself seriously with some well-implemented RPG-lite elements tagged on then sure, why not? Could well be an entertaining mindless game.

Unfortunately, anything related to the Duke IP is toxic by now, so it's more or less guaranteed to suck. Thankfully, it won't be released until 2026.
