Both Gearbox and 3D Realms are now owned by Embracer Group, so there's nothing really keeping them from using the IP.

I don't like Gearbox either, but the point is more so that 3D Realms can now pitch Duke-related projects to Embracer if they want. Gearbox isn't in a position anymore to just perpetually sit on Duke.

It's normal in all industries really. A handful of big groups own everything. Not saying it's a good thing, just that it's normal.

I'm assuming you mean General Mills.
They're an American food corporation that has about $20 billion of yearly revenue even though you've probably never heard of them.

Yeah I found out by looking up "owner of Cheerios".
I've heard of them before but only in passing. The brands they govern aren't really in circulation where I live, but I suspect their business practices still impact food companies here.

Colgate is a brand of the Colgate-Palmolive company among these others, that image is mostly focused on food products I suppose.
Although Procter & Gamble probably shouldn't be there either in that case.

They first vacuumed Scandinavia, and they've been spreading to the rest of Europe and overseas over the past year.
I hope they pry some unused scrap IPs from EA's skeletal fingers as well, and reunite them with the original creators.

Old Swedish money, and making smart purchases.
They're technically the same holding company hiding behind the name Nordic Games, and afterwards TQH Nordic. Over the past five years they've been buying a lot of game studios with good income but no idea of how to spend it wisely.
My assumption is they've been making grander and grander purchases by continuously spending fluke-hit revenue before taxes.
wasn't ion fury made by some uber leftist or whatever? i remember he censored himself because some random controversy that the twitter mob freaked out about. that right there cemented him as a spineless fricking homosexual in my eyes and for that reason alone i haven't bought his game, even though it looks awesome.
that was the publisher going full damage control mode after screencaps of transphobic discord messages from devs were screencapped and posted on resetera
they pledged to remove a soap bottle with a gay pun (OGAY instead of OLAY) then walked back the decision like a day later so nothing was actually censored

Stating that people who thinks that babies can be on HRT shouldn't be parents is trsbsohobic now?
Remove females, make the protagonist a bara nudist human.
Sequels? 3d realms barely has a finished, non early access game in their roster.
I bet you feel silly now.
Nu-3DR is literally a different company to old 3DRealms
Wrath Aeon of Ruin, Graven are still unfinished, just from the top of my head.
But it has the IPs right?
Still doesn't have Duke.

Go back to her original design over the Woke modern trash they put her in.

Aftershock is an expansion not a sequel

No, that was the 3DR CEO, a narcissist homosexual. The devs are quite grounded IMO.

No such thing, disgust doesn’t equal fear.
so i can still find my ogay in the game, then?
It was never removed. What was removed was pic related, which is a room you can only find with cheats.
sooo... the room isn't there but my ogay still is, just invisible?
ogay is still there, play the game.
nein! they have grievously offended me with that move of theirs. to such an extent that i won't even pirate it.
But you still want to talk about it?
On an anonymous fireworks manufacturing board?
It's either Duke Nukem Forever 2 or Wrath 2.
I didn't like the first. So a ´game I like would be what I want.
That it be allowed to be Ion Maiden.
That it's actually Graven.
That it comes to Switch and has gyro aiming with auto-turn.
I just want wrath to release aaaaaaaaa
Duke Nukem Forever Ever
Duke Nukem
Forever After
To release.
