Duty Calls was created for marketing purposes to promote one of Epic Games new games, Bulletstorm. It was meant to parody Call of Duty and includes many cliches from many other FPS games.

A complete shitpost that got greenlighted as one of the most left-field publicity stuns of gaming. It's obnoxious, it's on the nose... THIS DOESN'T EVEN HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH BULLETSTORM, BOTH COD AND BULLETSTORM HAVE COMPLETE DIFFERENT PURPOUSE AND PUBLIC.
It's kinda reaching, but not really if you think about it. Bulletstorm was THAT game. The whole Tony Hawk Pro Shooter combo style mechanics are still untouched 12 years later, this and Vanquish were the literal future of their respective crafts, and meanwhile COD is still doing (mostly) the same thing.

They make fun of the "Blood covering the camera when you get shot" thing by... Making the narrator say "surreal!!!"????? I don't think that's what surreal means you guys! Imagining a guy playing call of duty and going "ummmmm? that was a mindfuck!!! I'm gonna need to look at an "Ending Explained" video for this one!!" like how redditors talk about david lynch films.
this game is just neutral in my opinion, the jokes are funny, the gameplay is a bit cool, the graphics are an PS2-designed game, this game actually promoted the teaser of BulletStorm which is cool, but I'm fine with this game besides it's a generic COD-rip-off in promotion of BulletStorm, which is shocking and surprisingly interesting to me.
