You know, I've never thought of that, but a Dune-based game might actually be pretty cool. Though I feel like it would be hard to capture the atmosphere and otherworldly quality the books had.

Do you suppose it would be better to have a story-driven game that loosely followed the books, or a more open-world game set in the Dune universe?

It's not like there's already five Dune games. That's five too many in my opinion, though. Some things should just be left untouched.

first game was fucking great, fuck off

Oh yes, it captured the setting and tone of Dune perfectly. Truly that game was ahead of its time.

What would you even do in a Dune game and who would you play as?

Instead of FFXII remake, let's get a comparable game set on Arrakis.

Nothing.
Dune fucking sucked.

>m-muh Muad'dib
Fuck off.

>Dune fucking sucked.
You're free to your own opinion of course, but would you care to share with the class why you feel this way?

Not a single likable character. Herbert's writing plods on and on.

>tfw i will never have a game that lets me play as a half worm half human god that lets my wife cuck me

Why even live?

I feel like it just wasn't your kind of book. What would you consider to be a good book, contemporary or not.

well, the RTS games were pretty good, so i guess this can always work

or, make an rpg/shooter set in the same universe but not connected to the main story, something like the star wars games, just DONT let that talentless hack, Herbet's son, anywhere near the screenplay

True. Amazing game.

i want to fuck Lady Jessica tb h

What are you talking about? Brian Herbert is obviously the best thing to happen to Dune since Dune itself, a true mastermind and creative visionary who has only ever contributed top-tier content to his fathers legacy.

If properly made, this would almost certainly be my GOTY for whatever year it came out, and probably one of my GOAT.

OP is, for once, not a faggot.

Yeah man who wouldn't?

...

WTF, i love Brian Herbert now?!?

...

couldnt get into it. I love sci-fi and fantasy but the opening chapters of Dune are filled with so many undefined proper nouns that it feels like I'm trying to read another language.

The Dune Chronicles are probably my favorite fiction ever written but you're not alone. It seems really hit or miss even among sci-fi fans and I can see why for a number of reasons.

there is literally a dictionary in the end of the book

as the husband to the bride

>m8 m8

u wot m8?

>new Dune game announced
>based on Herbert's retarded son's writing

It's mostly useless flavour.
Although like in most sci-fi books, you're not supposed to really understand what the Bene Gesserit are or house politics until later on.

Well...you know what I meant nigga.

>made by Bethesda

You don't need likable characters to have a good story. Or you're one of those "relate" fags? Perhaps you should be reading visual novels instead?

dune is basically game of thrones in space, who cares, lmao

>not liking based Gurney

Don't compare Dune to that childish smut.

Is the Baron Vladimmir Harkonnen /ourguy/?
>likes traps
>too lazy and useless to walk
>gets fucked by a 3000yo loli

literally me

That actually sounds about right, yeah. Unlike most of Sup Forums, however, he was really smart.

my first dune game was dune 2, on android before it was taken down. i recall people staring at me because i blasted the audio and they just kept hearing "REPORTING" over and over and over again. absolutely boring rts game, but fared well on touch controls since there wasn't multiunit selection and whatnot, it worked fantastically. i like how much focus was on base building instead of combat, but some missions dragged on way too long because of the one unit selection thing and later on the nukes made it feel like a game of chance. the open source remakes as i should call it allow selecting groups but im not so sure i like the addition.

implying im wrong

>tfw you will never be a seductive and beautiful witch that everyone is afraid of

You'll never be a girl at all, fag.

says who

Hwi is the best waifu user.

>You don't need likable characters to have a good story.

>(you)

i hope you're not implying he's wrong

I never actually liked the Dune games that much. I was more of a C&C fan.

And I've only read the first book.

I don't even feel bad.

You guys should play Behind the Dune.

It's porn but it's good

Like, really good

why'd they make the dude so ugly?

>Desert people with barely any water
>gigantic tits
Immersion lost

...

If you romance her, you have the option to pee in her mouth.

...

Makes sense.

I JUST finished reading Dune today, you glorious motherfucker OP.

I'd love an FPS Dune. Or another revival of the original RTS.

is this the latest version?
swfchan.org/10997/

Is it finished or some raw beta which lasts for years?

Latest and likely final. Creator wants to do something new

Will that remove the gigantic tits?

this post was a good read

>not appreciating tits of all sizes

be sure to subscribe if you would like more friend
at first it was in green text format but i didn't want to do that, i didn't mean to blog here but at first it felt appropriate

your writing was interesting and had penetrating insights. no homo

BEHEAD THOSE WHO INSULT MUAD'DIB

...

>water-fat tits
DROPPED

you don't actually get to romance any of the good fremen, but you do get to make them each give you an identical blowjob scene and each one has a unique scene later in the game including, but not limited to; armpit job, piss drinking, anal.

>Finally dies
>Possesses hyper-aware loli
Truly ourguy.

delet!

is this game just full of shitty scat fetishes then? or is it actually worth playing

no scat, just huge bouncy tits, spice harvester management, and a decent grasp of the Dune world. as far as porn parodies go it's on par with akabur's princess Jasmine slave trainer.

>well, the RTS games were pretty good, so i guess this can always work

They are good games but they have absolutely nothing to do with Dune at all.
They're about as much Dune as Evangelion is Bible.

>reading

get the fuck out of here /lit/
its well known how whit your taste is
i went to you guys for some advice on what to read next after i finishes the wheel of time series and all i got was this exact autistic response
you faggots are worse than we are

Would like another Emperor: Battle for Dune.

>fat, ugly, masochist, degenerate gay pedophile
sounds about right

You kinda deserved it there.
Wheel of Time was pretty trash.
Good for the first... three I think, books.
Basically up until he gets the crystal sword at the end of one of the books.
Then it all comes crumbling down.

How many books was.... Perrin(?) besieging the rogue Aiel who kidnapped his wife for?
Was it three or four?
Because it felt like ten.

As a serious response to your question, read the Malazan Book of the Fallen, very different tone and writing, but its scope and length goes far beyond WoT.

eh i enjoyed it enough to reread it and didnt mind the slogging parts i like that kind of shit
ill have to check this nalazan book of the fallen series out ive been creating a backlog of stuff to read and like long expanded books that go into the tens

it wasnt the tact that they didnt like the series everyone has their own opinion and i can respect that
what i thought was retarded was that they shit on the very idea of reading nonfiction
granted this board shits on everything as a whole and never even brought up any book to read

Yeah, just finished it, thanks. Not really enough scenes but it was fun to finally fuck Jessica using voice.

Wait for Japan to humanize the worms as girls and start an LN/manga/anime based on that.

Games will start appearing in no time.

>Who's Duncan Idaho
>Who's God Emperor Leto II
>Who's Miles Teg

>all those tits
>little to no sex scenes
>can't romance the TUUUUBE mutant

fuck this game

I haven't been on /lit/ in a long time but I remember the anti-fiction stuff to be a more consistent meme.

Malazan is good in that while consisting of ten books, with the exception of book nine(which is a cliffhanger), each does begin and conclude its own story, similar to the earlier and better parts of WoT.

There is monotony and then there are parts that move even slower than that in WoT.
Good parts are still sprinkled sparingly in the later books, but so much turns to mediocrity.

There is also the cliffhanger at the end of the penultimate book, I'm not sure if it was based on the original author's notes, or the guy who finished the series, but that cliffhanger:
A) completely trivialized the actual final confrontation before it happened
B) set up a bewildering second plot thread for the finale which couldn't be resolved within the simple time restraints of one book, in addition to the restraints the setting already had regarding it
C) end up being completely forgotten
D) through, C); absolutely write-off the character involved.

Said cliffhanger is whatever the Aiel's name was' return to the meme timemachine-vision thing, and the vision itself.

I never cared too much for Duncan. Leto and Miles were both great. Moneo was too.
Despite having one chapter and otherwise a handful of third-person recollections, I wish we saw more of Malky too.
Teg was great.

oh yeah i forget what her name was but she was some desert spirit or some shit
never was explained well and it wouldve been nice considering all the lore the Aiel were iven
also wouldve been nice if teh sharans were elaborated a little more like everyone else was
from what i remember the guy who finished it claimed that he stuck mainly to robert jordans notes and whatnot but then jordan died so who knows if he was going to elaborate more on if he was alive
i think we would have gotten a completely different ending if it was written by the original author and maybe some side books about pre breaking and 4th age life
at least it was finished instead of being forgotten

also at that point we knew he was going to win prophecy and all
i think it was explained that even with time travel visions and fortunes and prophecy
if the dark one ever managed to win then time and reality would be broken and wouldnt matter because he is outside of the pattern
kink of an odd way to do it but whatever

also
i kind of wish that he didnt kill off asmodean, at least not that quickly
couldve been cool watching one of the forsaken repent and return to the light
