Re: Iris Action
If you get the fuck over your absurd sense of entitlement then I think you might find that Duke Nukem Forever, while certainly not "worth" waiting 10 years for, is still quite fun to play.

Stopped reading there.
Tired of that word. It gets flung around by fanboys like monkeys fling their own shit.
DNF as a shooter, wasn't bad. Not as good as COD, but not so bad as to be immediately labeled shit.. But as a Duke Nukem game, it was shit and not worth the time we waited to play it.
I don't play Duke Nukem for regenrating health, only two weapons and stupid gimicks (like writing on a whiteboard while some tard fawns over me.)
I play it for guns, guns, lots more guns, exploding guns, and really retarded jokes.
It'd be like Half-Life 3 suddenly restricting you to two weapons and your health recovers by standing behind a wall. I know I'm not the only one who'd hate that.
I had the same issue with RE: Operation Raccoon City. It looked cool, it sounded cool, and I definitely wanted a multiplayer RE game (The Outbreak games were good, but this was PS2 era. I didn't have the hookup for online, and the servers have been down for years now) but the game did not feel, or play like an RE game. It felt like a cheap Gears of War clone.
The enemy AI was retarded. The partner AI was even MORE retarded. The weapons had no sense of impact. The versus multiplayer modes were unenjoyable for multiple reasons, and last but not least, the game was far too difficult. And not the good kind of difficult. I mean the kind of difficult where the mechanics and AI are broken and lead to frustrating deaths.
This may have been forgivable if Capcom had sold this as a some kind of new game, (THE ADVENTURES OF LEATHER CLAN IN ZOMBIE TOWN) but instead they slapped the RE label on it, and the game wasn't even close to what an RE game should be.
TL;DR: Fuck your "entitlement" bullshit.
On topic, I highly doubt it will meet the same fate as DNF. These are minor tweaks and (maybe) new content. Not complete engine changes and scrapping of content. I have faith that it will still be good.
