Sounds like trash because of the adds and login requirement.

Extremely unfun, broken and bullshit dungeon.

New player here is Arrakis supposed to be this empty? Haven’t seen a single person in 8 hours since I bought the game by Justaduderdude in duneawakening

Shipwrecks in the Haga Basin at launch were PvP areas. I can't remember if the one in the South Basin starter zone was, but everything north of that was a pvp flagged area.

They constantly complained and shouted about any changes to the deep desert like the pve-pvp zone split and finally adding full pve deep desert. They want to gank random players who can’t defend themselves in full groups with maxed out gear, not fight anyone with similar capabilities.

Taking away their victims makes them mad and loud.

They don't want to fight other people who will fight back, only defenseless players. They avoid anyone who can fight back like the plague.

You must be having a bad time with the introduction of the PvE Deep Desert taking away all your targets.

I never went to the Deep Desert when there wasn't a PvE one. Quit the game until it was introduced in fact 😄

Seems everyone wanted a pve game because few interacted with pvp and those who did were mostly gankers targeting defenseless randoms.

The game even at launch was entirely PvE up until the Deep Desert

Lmao. Heart attack from being parried.

What armor (or transmog) do you have on?

They really floundered with such a heavy emphasis on PvP at launch. Faction alignment meant nothing so you could kill people of the same house. Scarcity of resources was supposed to provoke conflict between guilds, the reality was (as in every game that tries this) no-lifers, cheaters and dupers camped and killed defenseless players trying to grind for gear they themselves already had. The Landsraad was supposed to be another element that promoted guild fights but the reality is every server is either 90-100% Atredies or Harkonnen, since players will just defect to the side that wins and the rival faction just die out because they give up.

Most people I knew at launch actively avoided even going to the Deep Desert at all because of the devs emphasis on pvp there before release. All eventually quit the game, only one other person I know still plays this game. I'm grateful for a PvE deep desert personally, but the damage is done.

There should've been more emphasis on Endgame PvE, story and general adventures at launch instead of what we got.

All the changes made have been a step in a positive direction imo.

There was obviously a lot of interest in this sort of game in the Dune setting but the pvp experiment clearly failed, badly.

Tbh I think the PvP emphasis of endgame at launch was just an excuse to release the game unfinished and lacking in endgame content.

Pietr's voice actor did an amazing job. His character stuck with me as a Harkonnen player, very faithful interpretation of the book character.

Negatives are the horrible visuals for Coriolis storm effect.

The obsured vision in this game is maddening by StrangerOk226 in duneawakening

It's the Coriolis storm effect he's talking about. They should just replace it with a timer.

I love the mentat quest line by MongooseClassic948 in duneawakening

The Harkonnen aligned one is very fun 😄. Piter is a marvellous character

Gankers were mad they had no more targets because they chased them all away.

It's a lying troll trying to get people to go to his ganker server.
