Funcom offered a new hands-on with the title at this year’s Gamescom , giving me about an hour of time with the game just outside the giant sandworm that graced the show floor. The demo began directly following the game’s tutorial, where I began stranded in the hot desert sun following my ornithopter crash landing. Though the preview didn’t offer much in the way of information on Dune: Awakening ’s more MMO and PvP-centric elements, it did give a nice window into the title’s core survival and building aspects , with only a small amount of technical hicc<br><br>This bizarre, third-person action adventure game followed the events of Frank Herbert's novel fairly accurately, but its gameplay left much to be desired. Developed by Cryo Interactive, the developers of the original Dune game from 1992, Frank Herbert's Dune was, unfortunately, far from a success.<br><br>Visually, **Dune: Awakening ** looks like it's set in the world of Denis Villeneuve's Dune movie adaptations, with the studio behind these films, Legendary, having shared assets with the development team at Funcom, as well as inviting them on set. Despite this, the game's story has made at least one massive change from the book and the movies that could have major consequences going forward.<br><br>Dune: Awakening is set in the year 10199 AG, which is about eight years after the events of the Dune films. While this may sound like a way to ensure players are able to carve out their own story in Arrakis that's separate from the films, Funcom's Open World Survival MMO title has gone a step further by changing a major plot point to create a completely new alternate history, which could even erase the main events of the films and books entirely.<br><br><br>A nice co-op feature mentioned during the demo was that players can either half or full build objects , either placing a hologram of what they will look like somewhere or fully crafting them, to aid in collaborative building. As players build up their bases, they will also have to work to maintain them. Things like lighting and machinery require power systems to be made in order to run, and in general the bases built will require taxes to be paid on the land on which they <br><br>The Bene Gesserit will likely still be trying to birth the Kwisatz Haderach, however, and there are other possibilities due to the survival of Duke Leto. For example, Lady Jessica is pregnant with Alia in Dune: Part Two , and with Leto surviving for eight more years, it's possible that he would get to know his daughter better, potentially changing her destiny too. The Bene Gesserit wanted Lady Jessica to have a girl, so it's extremely possible they could have turned their attention to Alia instead. Alternatively, they could turn to Feyd-Rautha and the Harkonnen side of the family tree to attempt to birth the Kwisatz Haderach, being an even more extreme departure from the source material.<br><br>This direct sequel to Dune 2000 (the aforementioned remake of 1992's Dune 2 ) was, like its predecessors, developed by Westwood Studios. For fans of Westwood's style, Emperor: Battle For Dune provided more of what people had come to know and love. However, by this point, the market was flooded with RTS games, making it a competitive space; games such as the original Stronghold and Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds , for example, were released in the same year.<br><br>Those who have read the books or watched the films know this is a major departure as Leto died after being handed over to the Harkonnens by his private Suk Doctor, Wellington Yueh, during the attack on Arrakis by Baron Harkonnen's forces. Before giving Leto to the Harkonnens, Yueh replaced one of Leto's teeth with a poison gas capsule and told Leto to bite down hard to release the deadly gas. Although Leto did [http://Unpop.org/blog/member.asp?action=view&memName=UweQ1538514230449173 click this link], his main target, Baron Harkonnen survived, but Leto succumbed to the effects of the poison himself.<br><br><br>Even small steps forward, like the ability to build a basic water extraction gun, carry more weight when it took so much effort to get there. The aforementioned ornithopter that can take players to new regions requires a huge amount of work to build, with one of the demo workers mentioning it could take around 40 hours to achieve. The area players begin in can sometimes feel repetitive - it’s difficult for a desert that is large swathes of brown in every direction to feel very diverse - so I do have a few reservations about this hur<br><br>**Duke Leto's death was a major catalyst in Dune 's story, as it led to Paul fleeing Arrakeen ** and embarking upon his journey. While Paul had visions of a native Fremen woman, Chani, it was only after the fall of House Atreides that he met and rallied the Fremen to fight alongside him, and ultimately became the Kwisatz Haderach. Therefore, if Leto survived, Paul's main arc could be changed drastically in Dune: Awakening , making for an extremely different version of the character eight years later, compared to the one fans are familiar with. | |||
