I have no idea. Probably a few gamers here and there but I don't think there's a simple group.

It's a bit hard to get old-school gamers to like a game with pretty linear levels, regenerative health and a limit of two carriable weapons in a game like this. Duke is badass, he shouldn't have to retort to ducking behind covers. He should also be able to carry every gun he can find.

On the other hand, weak story and 'stupid' humour do no good newer gamers. I also believe the experience should be more cinematic for these gamers.

Basically Gearbox (or 3D Realms, or both, I don't really know) tried to modernize Duke but did so in the wrong areas. The game would have been better if they just let it be properly old-school. That, or they should have ditched the Duke in the game and just used the name for something entirely different (a reboot). Personally I would have found that extremely despisable.
