I was expecting the same, licenced games rarely do well, since licencors are often worse than publishers because they have even less experience in games than the usual investors (although licenced dune games are generally quite good), and with dune being an mmo, a genre done to dead and usually designed to keep you playing instead of to have fun, I thought it would be terrible. I was very happy when people said the game is good, I’ve always wanted a survival game based on dune!
