    Now a question: What's your favorite Nintendo 64 game? Myself I'm a HUGE fan of the original Paper Mario.

    The moment that stuck out to me about this game is the part where conker and the general talk about war and how horrible those are.
    It's really a touching moment and it opens my eyes on how the world really is.

    It's true that there are certain forms of humour that can't be done anymore or at least are much harder to do. Gore and profanities are fair game as long as you avoid jokes at the expense of minorities. It's not that people don't find them funny anymore (if anything, the opposite seems to be the case), the publishers just don't want to deal with review-bombing and general backlash that could hurt the sales.
    Conker on the other hand wouldn't have any problem being released today since its brand of crude humor is not as controversial anymore. A game would need to be more extreme to achieve the same effect a mature title released in 2001 on a Nintedo platform could produce. You still don't get many games with a focus on adult humour, despite in many aspects modern games being a lot more explicit than what you could find in the early 2000s. There is Leisure Suit Larry, the South Park games, Conker, and not much else. There is definitely an audience for it though.

    A modern Conker could easily parody Card Games, MOBA, Kart Racers, Fighters, etc.
    The original wasn’t just a platformer. It had moments where it was a shooter, a racing game, a stealth game, etc.

    I find it ironic people seriously think this game wouldn't slide today. Sure, it's funny and DEFINETELY not for kids, but it is not remotely as offensive as it was 22 years ago. The only reason I think it couldn't be done today is since the people behind this game have changed their tastes and aren't interested in Conker anymore. If anyone were to ever make a new Conker game in this day and age with the humor used in 2001, it really wouldn't strike as much controversy as people think it would.

    No, it wouldn’t fly today. That’s the very reason someone powerful enough should buy Conker from Microsoft and make an even raunchier game with it. Conker’s BFD was not meant for the masses, even though it had a lot of ideas that should be used in modern games (the detailed character deaths and the multiplayer). While Chris Seavor may be ashamed of the game’s immature humor, and may no longer want to work on a follow-up, someone with a similar spirit and creative output could surprise us some day.

    Your living in a fantasy world if you think careers of comedians and actors can survive them making whatever they want with no backlash from the woke crowd. Though there are exceptions like Chappelle or Rogan, they have clout and dedicated fan bases cultivated through years of performance. Other than that great video
