Gearbox Wants Female Duke Nukem Game
- Thread starter Tom Goldman
- Start date
Daisy Nukem sounds like a Brutal Legend themed RTS, where titanic slabs of roadie meat are launched wholesale into enemy gunfire
People could just as easily argue "Duke is a negative portrayal of men! Duke Nukem suggests all men are sex obsessed egotistical pigs interested only in money, violence and there own personal gain!" as they do that the game is a bad portrayal of women.
Thats EXACTLY the point of the game to me.
It isnt about being sexist.
Its about making FUN of sexism, making a joke out of it.
Nobody with a descent IQ and a sense of humour is going to see Duke shooting aliens in a strip club as hookers happily pole dance and cheer him on and think "well this is very obviously intended to mirror real life!".
I really couldnt care less about ANYBODY that complains about this game.
If you play this game, you KNOW whats going to be in it.
It would be the equivalent to somebody going to see a porn film called "MEGA PENIS LOVE FRENZY!" and complaining it was too lewd.
If you dont like gore, dont play gory games, if you dont like sexual content, dont play games with sex in them.
Simple as.
Just dont whine and ***** and worst of all BAN games for the people who were sensible enough to look on the fucking box and see what the game was actually about.

I've got ovaries of steel!
What, was no one else going to say it? Seriously though, seems like as good an idea for a game as any other. I kind of imagine a female Duke Nukem being a bit like Aria from Mass Effect 2... cold, domineering and manipulative. But with more guns. Definitely more guns.

I say do it - maybe Duke's had a daughter of twenty-something who's inherited her father's egocentric personality, but she has to kick ass regardless. Who knows, she might be kicking ass because her and dear daddy Duke are estranged, or Duke's too old - whatever. It would be cool.
I just hope she's wearing more than what most female protagonists wear, i.e. very little; and hopefully she isn't called Daisy.

LOL! That would be awesome to see. A strategy/stealth hybrid game with an egotistical female lead. I'd LOVE to see that.Tom Goldman said:
I think a female Duke would be an awesome idea, as long as she had most of the same "values" as Duke himself. I'm not opposed to DNF based on the objectification of women, but I do think it's lame that men always get pandered to and women are left out in the cold.
I'd like to slap some ass too

You know what worries me? I'm sure some people would say "But that's what men ARE!" and would deny any sexism on their part. -_-perpetual-mind said:
Hahahah, nice one. My mind is reeling with the potential awesomeness and travesty of these ideas...ShenCS said:She's the female Dante. Although I suppose Dante could be called the Japanese Nukem. Hmm... That would be one HELL of a crossover game.cainx10a said:Ain't Bayonetta the female Duke Nukem?
Always bet on Duke though, a femDuke would be just...it wouldnt work out...
Do it, and I'd play the hell out of the game.
I never thought of Bayonetta as a female Duke though, just a female version of Dante.
Seriously Gearbox, do it, I wanna hear the little self-righteous feminists cry foul.

I have said I would murder people to get Freespace 3 made but I would lay waste to entire fucking continents to get a *good* Black Lagoon based shootergellert1984 said:Spoilered image
Just stick to the first 3 episodes of black lagoon, she actually some character up later on.
Grenade launcher + walkman / PT boats = good times!
xD Bwahahaha! I thought of her as I saw the Article's name. It's not quite there though. Lol.cainx10a said:Ain't Bayonetta the female Duke Nukem?

I would pay or do ANYTHING to ANYONE to be the one to voice a lady Nukem.
