Wow Duke you move really slow in this game, and the first level really sucks and is directionless, and the visuals are really bland and the weapons really suck. Does this gas grenade even hurt enemies?

/vr/ did you lie to me about this game or does it get better?

I'm here to make a single decent first person shooter in a series filled with shitty third person action games while incubating cocks with my colon... and I'm all out of dicks to warm up with my anal gland

I like it but I actually enjoy video games. The first level is awesome due to the sheer scale of it and the exploration, which at the time was pretty awesome; plus it has real good draw distance for an N64 game.

>The first level is awesome due to the sheer scale
It's not huge, it's mostly slow to move around in. It's dense but not to its benefit with awkward shortcuts and lots of hard 90 degree turns. The way enemies spawn in for that first level feels very short sighted too, it seems to be the only way they lead the player around, economizing on the area they have. The repeated scenery doesn't do it any favors.

The combat is missing that secret sauce of Duke too. There's not enough crap in the environment and the destruction of said crap doesn't linger and lacks uniqueness. When you blow a clock off the wall in Duke3d it's this comical new texture of a big spring and a chunky noise coming from the impact. Throw a pipe bomb into a room in Duke3D and it'll break lights, explode trash cans revealing goodies, and give you a little gibelt shower. Zero Hour doesn't have that.

Feels lacking.

I love Duke 3D too (and I consider it the best FPS ever made unironically), but you need to set your expectations for a console game.

It captures the Duke personality and the things I like from a Duke game (dire circumstances with a stalwart hero)

It's a different kind of experience, it's less about the tight space and detailing and more about a grander adventure in more open spaces
