Dune Awakening’s early meta is an unbalanced, helicopter-infested nightmare, and I never want it to end


Dune Awakening’s early meta is an unbalanced, helicopter-infested nightmare, and I never want it to end.

In the Deep Desert, roaming hordes of orniphopters (the Dune equivilent of a plane or helicopter) are dominating the end game and making an already dangerous area even more perilous. For those who aren't familiar, the Deep Desert is a no-holds-barred open world PvP area that makes up the majority of Dune: Awakening's end game. Dune: Awakening doesn't force you to do this, to be a social animal, but it's so obviously the point that the only other thing Funcom could do to emphasise it further is to build a big neon sign that says "join a guild" in the small PvE slice of the Deep Desert.
