I know people were divided, to say the least, over the game's homophobic Easter egg (A hidden Olay moisturizer parody in the game called Ogay), and that some of the devs were purportedly transphobic on Discord, but the game still looks so awesome, and it's even been highly praised by several outlets.

So should I get Ion Fury or no?

Yes. You called an Iranian woman a "fucking whore" and demanded her death, so moral standards of any kind shouldn't be an obstacle for you anymore.

Could you PLEASE not bring that here?

Well, it's relevant.

You are asking if it's morally okay to purchase a certain controversial game and I am telling you that nobody here will think any less of you if you do it.

That doesn't mean I opened the door for you to come in and insult me as usual.

You get offended too easily.

What kind of answers were you looking for when you made this thread?

You should get LoD instead, regardless of any game you may be interested into.

It looks like a retro Duke Nuke'em, you'd have to expect developers might not be the most gentle worded people around.

If you enjoyed playing the old Duke Nuke'em, and dont mind old dated looking games (or find that aspect appealing), yes get it.
You always judge a game on its own merits, what some dev or PR guy once wrote on twitter, shouldnt effect if you buy something or not.

If you hated Duke Nukem for objectifying women, don't buy this game.

As Duke would say: "Shake it, baby"
