The problem with Duke is if Forever came out and they played him up more as a 90s relic, it could have been funny, as opposed to just doing the same dated humor.

He is a parody of 80's action movies, all his quotes are stolen from Army of Darkness and They Live, his voice is basically a bad Dirty Harry impression, etc. He is dated even by 90's standards. That is what made him funny. He is the embodiment of "1985" from Bowling for Soup.

The issue with Duke is more the "sexism" that just wouldn't fly today (and is the main thing most people complained about with Duke Nukem Forever).
