Dune: Awakening

I have played almost every Dune game over the years, and in my opinion, Dune: Awakening is the best one so far. The story doesn't follow Frank Herbert's original timeline, and as a longtime Dune fan I wasn't completely sold on that choice at first. However, once you accept that it's an alternate version of the universe, the game becomes much easier to appreciate. One of its greatest strengths is that you can play solo and progress at your own pace. It may take longer to reach your goals than if you play in a guild, but everything is achievable with patience and dedication. I never felt forced to rush or rely on other players. The atmosphere is outstanding. Arrakis feels dangerous, alive, and faithful to the spirit of Dune. Base building, exploration, crafting, and survival all fit naturally into the setting. No game is perfect, but if you're a Dune fan or enjoy survival games, this is an easy recommendation. It captures the feeling of living on Arrakis better than any previous Dune game I've played.

even if you are playing solo, you can make your way in the desert. But, it is a great community of players to help you along your journey

Feels more like a single-player MMO with multiplayer elements, the setting and atmosphere are great but the main story is not, and the combat system has a good number of flaws. Although I recommend it, I would only get it on sale and after they add the single player mode.

So I really hate the build craft survive genre as a whole but i do love the Dune world and stories so i have a bit of bias having watched the movies and read the books but the game has a fun game loop farming doesn't take forever base building has a lot of cool qualities out running the worm is stressful and fun and the contracts you take help keep things lively with a good loop this game definitely isn't for everyone but if you like dune its solid if you like build, craft, survive you will enjoy the game loop - I play solo btw

game is great

Lots of content to work through, great attention to detail when adapting the story to the game.

Everyone is disappointed that the pvp in this game didn't turn out to be what they wanted, I get it, it is not the best pvp in a game. But, I currently have 135 hours in this game and it is by far one of the best games i have ever played. I am not even close to finishing quests or having my base in a true end game state. I have also barely scratched the entire end game loop of the landsradd system talents and dungeon loop. I will surely put 100's more hours in this. What is the price of entertainment? The grocery store currently has steak priced at $50/lb, buy this game and not that steak. Buy this game, play this game, love this game. Give them our money so we can get another masterpiece even greater than this.

Если хотите играть в это г, то советую играть только со скидкой 99%, игра ужасна абсолютно во всем, мертвый сюжет, физика в игре из игр начала нулевых, оптимизация отсутствует, чтобы получить на средних компах хорошие фпс, нужно графику выкрутить в 0. Мир огромен, но он пустой от слова совсем, ты просто катаешься по песку среду бесконечных лагерей разбойников.

So let me start off with this game is cool. Dune is a great IP and I'm glad that this game exists to experience that. But- It just- its just to sucks play. Just straight up sucks. The early game is not fun. Its tedious, and excessively grindy, and overall, it just runs like absolute dog-crap. I'm running at around recommended pc specs, at the lowest graphics, and it just runs bad. Cutscenes just break, NPC dialogue almost crashes my game every time. The grind is just not fun. Its not fun to deal with. I came into the game wanting to fly a freaking ornithopter. And guess what. Almost 20 hours in, and I still don't have one. The only reason I played this long (at the time of this review) is because of that. Genuinely one of the most unfun experiences to any early game I've ever played. Gathering the resources for ANYTHING is just so insane. There is no reason I need to spend 4 hours of resource gathering for a single weapon/tool. And don't say "Oh but snax, you just need to go to the spots for those resources," Yeah, I'm sure its fun with your thopter flying around and getting millions of items around the map. I've only NOW just gotten the mark 2 bike. And maybe it's just a genuine skill issue on my end, but its not fun spending 30 minutes to get to one spot on the map for one singular resource. AND THE DURABILITY. It's just not fun to deal with! I'm fine with spending resources to fix my tools and vehicles, but it being "broke" is not fun. It would be fine if it didn't cost 15 iron ingots and 4 Emf Generators to make it again. If the durability just didn't lessen it would be perfectly fine. The water and stats are fine, the water can drain maybe just a bit slower, because it just feels like its never full, and the health could be better with more regen. Maybe I'll leave a better review if I get farther in the game, but so far, I'd say so far my experience with this game is a solid 4/10.
