Dune: Awakening

absolutely do not recommend. the game had a lot of promise to start....and then you get the ornithopter and the game changes entirely. the story is lackluster and forgettable with introducing items you will literally never use like a stilltent or bone knife. the season pass? 95% cosmetics under the guise of "DLC"...the pvp was so awfully balanced they had to add pve AND THEN single player mode. you build a character the whole game, unlock skills and then...pvp with ornithopters instead. the landsraad devolved into one mega guild controlling both sides and yeah. this game is a mess in the sense of not knowing what it wants to be, what it is and the lighting is horrible. you can have like 60 lighting structures in your base...which you can expand several times. so if you like mood/aesthetics, go elsewhere. no ambient lighting for you outside of like one or two rooms. maybe i'll return one day. i had fun with my friends until i realized how horrible the "endgame" actually is and all the filler/useless stuff they have pre-ornithopter.

Why do they list it single-player game in the feature list? My first experience was to be forced to select a server so no solo option then secondly out of the tutorial you get a nice view of boxes everywhere the eye can see. Other than that, the game looks great and the vibes were good. I struggle with the features list saying single-player and then buying a released game and have to wait till september. So just for that fact I can't recommend it. Nothing on the upper part of the store page indicates any of this well.

太容易被沙虫吃了，惩罚又太严重，全部东西都会没有。其它都很好玩，非常喜欢，造了沙漠大别墅很满意，就是沙虫这点不合理，被吃两次已气哭，不会继续玩了

I conquered everything my eyes saw and I never felt more empty in my life. I betrayed my friends and stole all of their hard work, only to find myself in the same purposeless desert.

I was playing Dune: Awakening as part of a 50-player guild, and we were actively building an academy with the goal of bringing in 50+ more players. But after the recent changes, we stopped playing and left the game. We didn’t build a large guild just to peacefully farm PvE content. We played for territory, conflict, alliances, rivalries, politics, and - most importantly - the risk of losing everything. That risk gave meaning to progression and made having a large guild actually matter. Now PvP is increasingly becoming an optional activity, while more and more of the game is designed around safe and relaxing PvE. For us, this removed the reason to keep building the guild. We were preparing to grow, and instead we left. Developers, please look at EVE Online. After more than 20 years, it remains one of the best references for sandbox MMO design because loss matters. Ships, territory, resources, corporations and entire empires can be lost. That risk creates stories, conflict, cooperation and reasons for players to stay. Dune has the perfect setting for this. We don’t want a safe PvE sandbox. We want Arrakis to be dangerous. We want something worth fighting for - and something we can actually lose.

Awesome game so far!

i have over 1k hours in this game. let me tell you. the first 80-100 hours of hagga is amazing. pvp in the DD when it was a thing and people didn't whine, was amazing. now this game is just an endless cycle of doing dailies, and not seeing a single soul anywhere you go. waited 5 dang months for a story line update and i remember the devs saying something about them making hours of gameplay but it was only an hour for ch4 if that. not sure how this game has a positive review but i wouldn't recommend anyone play it. the game should've never been a full release and should've been beta for sure. so disappointing that we waited five months for the shortest story of all time. ggs failcom.

waste of time and money.

best open world survival craft ive played to date
