Cloning Extinct animals seems like a very, very bad idea. Really cool, but a terrible idea. These creatures became extinct for a reason. Since they don't currently exist, it is incredibly unlikely that they will be able to simply fit easily into any current environment. Environments have changed a lot since they became extinct and have adapted to exist without them. Introducing them suddenly could be disastrous. I know this well as an australian... ever heard of Bufo Marinus(Cane Toads) anyone? Or Rabbits, foxes... the list goes on. Human meddling have had devastating effects on a number of environments around the world.
The Model on the back of the guys daughter is an elder scroll. The model already exists in Skyrim in the scroll receptacle in the dwemer orrery, you are sent to get it during the main quest so the question is... how can these guys not recognise it?
"Canon", means following the official story, when something is "canon" it is officially part of the overall story of the fictional world. Not canon means it is not officially recognised as part of the real story (sometimes this is considered an alternate reality type storyline).
Game Developers come up with an idea and then make it, they are basically authors. The games they make come from them, and are their own ideas and intellectual product. It is up to the game developers to decide what games they will make and then it's up to the gamers to decide if they want to pay for and play those games. People don't attack authors for not writing stories the way they think they should be written so who do these people think they are to do so to game developers? It seems to me they are just juvenile idiots with no understanding of the way the world works.
Quite honestly I don't see the "feminist propaganda" that others seem to be seeing here. Boiled down to the basic points this is basically saying that Duke is a ridiculous over the top character who is misogynistic and that that is okay because the game is intended for people who are mature enough to realise that it is not meant to be taken as the way a man should be and is in fact poking fun at sexism and bigotry. I agree that being too much the other way is also wrong, I have never met a woman who is attracted to a man who is a "wuss" and treats women as superior to men. But this article is quite obviously not endorsing sexism on either end of the spectrum and is not saying that women are better than men or vice versa. Being a 22 year old man i was a child when i first played Duke Nukem 3D and even then i realised that it was not a realistic view of the real world and that Duke does not represent a "Real Man". Anyone who looks at the game or at this article and sees sexism clearly has issues of their own.
