When Gearbox got the rights, I was sure Duke was going to show up in Borderlands, because thats basically the perfect place to put a relic of a character like that.
Have him do the 80s macho-man thing as a side character, and then contrast how much things have changed in the last 30 years for comedy.
There is no story that you could tell with Duke as the main character that wouldn’t feel like it was a script written in 1998 just rotting in a warehouse somewhere.
I have wanted to see him interact with Sal in some capacity for the longest time. I feel like there could be at least some “a better you” gags on Duke.

I feel Duke, Torgue, and Sal would make for a dialogue that is as equally epic as it is brain rotting.
