[–] Fenrisulfir@lemmy.ca 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) Have you tried the new one? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 years ago (1 child) Huh, it actually exists! That said, from one of the reviews: Feels like a tablet or phone game. Your PC will be insulted. This is one of those games that make you think you played it ten years ago. Actually 30 years ago, Dune II back in 1992 was a better game and was groundbreaking at the time. This is not on any level. 5 units types per faction, that's it. No ground vehicles to speak of that you can control. I'll probably be disappointed. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] themoken@startrek.website 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 child) That review is bullshit. It's not going to tax your machine, but that's a good thing. The unit type thing is also missing that not the entire game takes place on the battlefield, there's multiple layers to it and you almost never win through pure domination. EDIT: Also, ground vehicles? This is Dune, you can't cross sand in a vehicle, and they couldn't go up cliffs. No, instead you airdrop, which is way more flexible. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 1 point 2 years ago K, I'll watch some gameplay footage then. permalink fedilink source parent
