Remember, folks! Never pre-order! DON'T DO IT!
Speak with your wallets.
i swear you guys dont even know what this means. you parrot the streamer you like saying it but then you still pre order the shit with all the extras.
@@itchiegames what does it mean, then? I just assumed don't pre-order means don't pre-order. Edit: oh, wait, I don't think you were replying to me.
Conan Exiles is one of my favourite games and this one will be just as bad.
I preodered Conan Exiles, the Funcom game on which exepirience this Dune is based. Still play the Conan Exiles after many years. In my preoder package they gave me the sword and armor set which other players who not preodered the game dont have. Now some players don't know about that set and look suprised to see it. So, I would say, I still have some value from that preoder. So, knowing Conan Exiles with all its problems I would still preoder Dune game. But only in one this specific case.
I don't like sand. It's coarse and rough and irritating and it gets everywhere.
Just be a guy and Bald, problem solved, pretty much 🤷♂️
classic
It's treason then.
Best to get to the high ground then
@@warlordmelsand sticks to sweat. Problem not solved.
Notice how the editor went from 500% on the last video to 600% on this video.
Just wait till we get 800%. The value that will be had is only whispered in legend.
I have a feeling the editor will make the next one 690%
I can only imagine what he'll be 1000% playing
Top comment was „I wonder when he‘s gonna play a game for 600%“ (or something similar) so once again - the editors stay undefeated
500% to 600% is not 100% more, don't be fooled, it's just a 20% increase...
This game is gonna change his life
He was 200% Gonna play Zelda too... 🤷♂️🤷♂️😄😄😄😄
The trailer alone already has dude
@@warlordmelpeople also cappin when he gonna play DD2 🤯
Hopefully he never plays any of them and just does full react streams
Yes the Dune game that is not touching any of the religious stuff within the Dune universe that is also directly in the political background of the factions and peoples. It is a Dune game only in name and not in substance.
I'm a little skeptical. Feels like a lot of hype being built on cinematics and not much that looks like actual gameplay. Only 'gameplay' I saw was the wall climbing in the dark and that looked meh and maybe the aerial combat. Everything else looked like cut scenes or cinematics. Looking forward for future content of ACTUAL gameplay.
So what DOES get you super hyped then? Name a demo for a game pre-released that had you Blown Away.... And no lying naming a game that turned out to be good, that's cheating 😊
Xenoblade X 2nd trailer hyped me up so much. But the game was good, so I guess that doesn't count 😂.@@warlordmel
damn near every game is hyped with cinematics before gameplay is revealed
@@warlordmel enshrouded was pretty f hype tbh
@@klaptone9012 Hmm, don't know that one, will look it up and come back :)
IGN future review of this game: 7.8 too much sand, not enough water.
😂😂😂
Everybody with a brain knows this game will be nothing like we see in these trailers
Everybody with a brain will just look back at Conan exiles and see that it will
played the alphas and closed betas its literally the same,
As someone who still plays Conan Exiles, Funcom is only good at breaking their own game and community mods. They will probably add a paid Battle Pass on top of the base price of the game.
I mean. It’s funcom. Let’s be honest, it’s not going to even be as good as the watered down version in my head.
@@cedricdavis513 considering that dune is gonna be on old consoles i doubt that...
Wait for reviews my dudes.
I always do
Not the journalism reviews like IGN. Not even the steam review or metacritic ones either. The best way to objectively asses a quality game before buying is to ask reddit about 1-2 weeks about it but in this case of it being a mmo, maybe it would do to wait around 6 months so that most people will get to the endgame as well. Even better to wait until some dlc and patches are out so that the game is in a perfect sweet spot where there are content updates available along with all the bugs gone and fixed. Wait until it’s all cooked and ready. (It took cyberpunk 2 years to get there and dragon’s dogma will take about 1 year). Patience is key.
@@gatwick127 yeh I only bought cyberflunk a month ago. It's a solid game and well polished, but I give it an 8.5/10 at the discount price
Oh, how short are memories can be!
Never trust funcom. Dont forget what they introduced into Age of Conan During Rise of the godslayer.
just as a notice, the "early acces end of this year" was just added randomly by IGN, they didnt say anything about releases and betas.
You can sign up for beta on the website
UE5 + MMO + Survival = disaster
why?
+ Funcom
@@bludrose because 9/10 games with this formula suck ass and are a hype bases deceiving marketing schemes
UE5 isn't the problem lol.
@@dreadtrain2846every game with It has terrible performance
Same guys who made Conan? So we’re getting a dong slider right?
Or a worm slider at the very least!
Usul called a big one!
so ign saw 1h of gameplay and show nothing... that's suspicious. Nothing about servers capacity again. If we are lucky it will end like battlefield with more skils ;]
Force gaming made a much better review of that preview.
Trailers and cinematic gameplay can look as pretty as they like, but never trust a game that hasn't yet shown actual gameplay. People haven't learned even after Anthem, the day before, etc
Force Gaming attended an event where they got to watch actual gameplay live and he just made a video on it..go check it out
@@itzTOASTY361same thing happened to Act Man and Payday 3, look what happened there. Force doing the same thing proves nothing. Idk why people keep defending this kind of shit
@@primalzacama1902cry more
Anthem had tons of gameplay content before release, and they did open betas. Anthems only real problem was a lack of end game content.
@@itzTOASTY361 Even that is not fool proof, It was probably just a "Vertical slice", look it up
Tbh there is no single good survival MMO on the market and likely this won't be any different. I wish they would make normal RPG.
Have you heard of rust ?
@Saurfang Rust isn't a MMO it's a concept survival pvp game that has regular wipes and not persistent progress. It's not the same
@@Saurfang rust is barely a survival game
@@zonedout3390 how is rust not an MMO? It's massively multiplayer since you can have hundreds on one servers and it's online
@@arosbastion7052I would say yeah it counts as an MMO but I think they’re just talking about role playing games. BR games are also MMO but like not the same thing they’re talking about. They’re orbit like me. I want open world exploration and like fantasy and interesting stuff.
In Conana the official Servers had a cap of 40 players and for dedicated servers there's a hard cap at 70 in the code. The official server were already struggleing, when 40 people played at the same time. So if they don't improve the netcode massively and allow more players, the world will be pretty empty, when they make a big map.
Part of the issue with this was that they made a bad deal with the server company GPortal, and their servers fucking sucked. This is why the combat in Conan Exiles is so laggy and jank, and the source of a lot of the issues with the game. This is something that has been complained about a lot, so I don't believe they'll repeat this mistake for Dune: Awakening. One would assume so, at least.
Didn't see a single shot that looks like actual gameplay.
I love the editor, clips and gathers some of the best parts of Zach’s streams.
This is Funcom we’re talking about. The only real saviors of this game will be modders as long as they can mod Dune like they could Conan. I’m just hopeful that the game is a good canvas so modders can make it shine.
This is Funcom, who ruined Conan Exiles by adding BattlePass and Live Service elements. Never touching a game from them ever agan...
@@Aeliasson The battle pass was right around when I quit so I almost forgot about it. So unfortunate
Every since the battle passes started Conan has been riddled with FOMO microtransactions. They are mostly cosmetic yes, but there also a lot of useful functional things in the battle passes and shop.
You mean Failcom, right?
@@Aeliasson Buy the Sahara Pass and get the bottomless water pouch! And the Camel that doesn't get thirsty!
1:29 is that not literally the Unreal Engine 5 cave that Asmon told us to look out for in game trailers? Not a great omen, if true.
I love the aestetics of deserts specifically sandy ones. But very little games recently are able to make them properly, and revert to just a dry rocky desert instead. Aside from assassins creed.
I thought they were going to show more gameplay. Still way skeptical. Especially coming from funcom, whose games ran like absolute crap for so long.
Dune 2000 has been my cup of tea in terms of strategy games over the years. Old game, I know, but has its charms.
None of the religious lore is going to be in the game. So it’s NOT Dune.
I have high hopes for this game. Funcom have been making MMOs since the early 2000s. The first MMO anarchy online is still running to this day. They've made a fair few MMOs over the years and I have played most of them and enjoyed them all
This gmae was at pax east and after hearing them talk about it im actually kind of excited about it. I’m not a huge dune fan but I’ve seen the second movie.
i wonder, how will they manage the blue eyes situation, if u start non-Arrakis? the blueness will depend on leveling or in-game time? 🤔
i rewatched conan exiles trailer, and has the same impression with this one. it looks so awesome in the trailer with all the grand bases and catapults etc... but in reality, everyone just building bases on top of a stone that looks like a shaft with two balls... lol 🤣 I loved conan until bazaar and battlepass. bought most of the dlc before that, never bought any after.
Funcom also made Anarchy Online, this is not their first rodeo, so it's more likely to works than with another studio
Force did a really good video on this today.
I 700% can't wait to see what asmon is 800% playing next
As a pro builder on exile land really interested to see all the building aspects to this game to merging peices together and stuff like that and the elements of the world also look interesting
I hope they implement the reaction between lasgun and shields^^
Wish it was the entire Dune universe, with all the factions. Choosing to be from one of the great houses, or spacing guild, the bene gesserit, the choam company, the Tleilaxu, the sardekaur, smugglers or mercenaries, etc etc. The possibilities are endless really
i wish they would do a star wars mmo like that. I would 100% be like a space smuggler or a like a bandit/assassin class
Dlc, expansions.
They Devs said they won't be going into the religious aspects of the Dune Universe. That is half the story of Dune it effects the political aspects of the universe, the fractions and people in it. It is a money grab with DEI trash in it
people wish for shit without having any idea the scope of what they are talking about would require...
@@Mello675 so, by your thought process, no one should ever dream because dreams are too hard to make them a reality. lol. gtfo
I've been watching some Dune: Spice Wars tournaments and I hope Vernius of Ix and Ecaz's houses are in Dune Awakening as I liked them in Spice Wars. Having all the houses going to Arrakis might deviate from the book but I don't care. If the game is too faithful to the book, it will only limit the game. By bringing other houses to the planet, it would enrich the game in terms of lore and tech.
Has he played conan exiles? That game is incredible
Definitely cautiously optimistic. I’ve played Conan Exiles and enjoyed it but it is rough. We’ll see if Funcom can improve or remain lacking.
In PvP survival you don’t need end game it’s all about clan wars who will survive and win server haha in Conan I have 6k h
Sorry I'm still not convinced... What is the Combat? What do we do to pass the time?
Watch videos on this game to find out
Hard to be convinced by any game until it’s released nowadays. Could be selling the best-looking game of all time but it will still come out broken, unfinished, riddled with mtx and stupid design choices.
Imagine this being like the game Planetside 2 + the survival aspect
looks so good, but i need some green in a MMO, and i guess is impossible here
Movie tie in games are bad until proven good. This has been the case since the 1980's.
Unequivocally incorrect lol. Goldeneye Jurassic world Alien Isolation Mad Max STAR WARS OMG Chronicles of Riddick Batman (including nes title and arkham series) Spiderman (the new ones ofc) Lord of the rings has tons Aladdin snes/sega There are tons and tons of *incredible* move tie ins that are some genre defining examples of stellar games
@@JgHavertyI didn't play any of those except for golden eye. 😂
@iOpurrrate every game listed is iconic, critically acclaimed, extremely well regarded by its players, and in many cases genre defining. YOU not playing them unbelievably irrelevant.
@iOpurrrate also theres like 200 batman, star wars, and lord of the rings games. If youve managed to not play *any* of them, you have way less voice here than youd even understand. Or... youre trying some stupid "gotcha" thing here. Either way, youre missing the point entirely
@@JgHavertyit actually is correct. He didn’t say all movie games are bad. He said they’re assumed bad until proven otherwise. There are way, WAY more bad movie games than good ones. This isn’t proven yet. He’s not saying it WILL be bad, he’s saying be cautiously optimistic.
But will it have epic grunge bass whenever you do anything?
BRUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM *turns around, critter took a dump
I'm very sceptical. The Dune movie was released in 2021, and this probably started development around that time, there's no way they'd invest into a Dune MMO before seeing if the movie would be a hit. That means it's only been in development for like 3 years. I have a suspicion that they're rushing this out to profit from the Dune hype, and that it will be very void of content.
You act like this game is launching next week. 😂 It's gonna be in early access at the end of the year and most likely will be delayed, they even said it'll be ready when it is.
I really hope you can play as a harkonnon as well as fremen
maybe be able to host our own servers that way we dont have a limit to what we can do or add aswell as addend/plugins/mods.
I'd be fine with the game even if it's just "Arrakis Exiles" so to speak. I like conan exiles despite its jank. As long as it doesn't go downhill from there, I'm OK with it
0:51 it's not a Shai-hulud. The worms are Shai-hulud. 1 worm is Shai-hulud, all worms together are Shai-hulud.
Yep, kind of like the Borg, it's not a Borg, and they're not Borgs, they are the Borg.
@@nistarok123 exactly. Ave in this case it's because they see them as the emissary of god or exec as the personification of god, of buddhallah XD ( I just restarted the whole series and I'm reading the books in chronological order, starting with the butlerian jihad)
Can you watch Shai-hulud in Hulu?
@@MangaGamify I don't know, but do you know why does the worm hesitate to come out sometimes? Because it's Shy-hulud.
What I fear is at best this is gonna be probably Conan exiles & Rust like. I don't see them stretching it any further beyond that.
I've played a lot of conan exiles and enjoyed all parts of it, yes it had it's problems but i enjoyed that type of gameplay so I'm looking forward to this
I wonder why they had to change the designs for the Sandworms and other aspects if they are doing this as a Tie-In to the new movies?
The ip contract may be more complicated than we think. So its not a simple "use whatever you want" it could be "you can use X, Y or Z only".
@@Ashbrash1998 This is true. I forgot about the intricacies of licensing etc. Still, its a shame they had to deviate that much from the original movie.
this was a whole lot of nothing
I hope this Star Wars MMO is actually good this time…
This is going to be another triple shitter game.
Thinking to play a Harkonnen Mentat. Should be cool.
There will be no classes in this game.
I heard differently. Mentat, Bene Gesserit, Swordmaster and Trooper so far.
It's more of conan in desert with ~1k players per server, not actual mmo though. A pity.
This might be the second game I pre-order. I don't even care if it comes with gamepass later on😅 conan exiles was fun and I felt like I missed out coming into the game so late, considering I got it with game pass I wasn't too sad, but when the only people who play it have ether 10 hours or 1000 it creates a situation where you ether are a perisite who takes from the hire level players only to never get back on ever, or you are that top player and servers feel empty except for the people who leach off you for the 2 days they try the game before taking your resources with them to the void.😂
6:37 Rare sight around these parts. Or the South West in general.
Funcom is my favorite underdog developer. They've had a couple of fun but ultimately not great games but they've also made some absolute bangers. Anarchy Online and Conan Exiles among them. I've got a good feeling about this one.
I'm excited, I'm already playing Star Citizen. I will be cool to alternate PTUs
Can't wait to watch people play this. I would play it but it's been singleplayer games ever since getting a job 😅
Just like any title of this size it will have problems at launch. But then get better with time.
Been following the game since they opened their discord, and despite it being an mmo I do hope player guilds dont have the ability to be insanely massive
What will come out first, Dune MMO, or Star Citizen?
so it's conan exile sci fi, with only hub mmo get it. since i like conan exile i will try it
I feel like it's going to suck or be really good
Just wait to see what he will be 700% playing.
Yes, yes he will.
At this point I'm skeptical about almost every developer. Even my favourites.
Rusty: I won't miss.
4:37 Its the Satisfactory Style
People don't realize how good the lore is in dune
I just hope the performance is good
Wish it was just a huge solo survival game with building
Asmond dropping into the game will turn it into a 1v1000
I can see custom servers with starwars mods etc.
where's the gameplay
I love this new Kenshi update.
What game will he be 700% playing tho?
Be careful, adventurer, as you approach the level of 800% playing this. It might be TOO MUCH extra value.
it's not lag it's editing and trying to show everything in those small clips and since they are 30fps it will look laggy when doing slow mo
didn't expect to see a great ign commentary video, luckily it wasn't
I have been following this game for a while…. My biggest fear is lots of ideas… but can they fit all this into a functional fun mmo? The lack of in game footage makes me nervous
Should've watched the Force Gaming video had way more info.
i hope you can singleplayer this
I love the Dune lore very much and Conan Exiles, I hope this goes well.
Looks like Funcom finally got off their butts and created AnarchyOnline 2.
IGN is becoming a REAL game journalism company again. So refreshing to see! I might ACTUALLY add a game review website to my bookmarks for the first time in about 15-20 years
I cant wait till Funcom gives it the Age of Conan treatment!
I won´t feel excited until I see real ingame footage
If this was a single player RPG game similar to DD2 or Skyrim I would be very excited, but what the game goes for speaks of failure and I would love to be wrong so everyone can be happy playing a great game, but we all know survival games when combined with the "MMO" stamp fail 90% of the time.
Remember folks Funcom also made Anarchy Online which was a very successful SciFi Mmo.
Conan exiles 2
i can see that, can you elaborate? why do i feel like that is true?
@@MrTsiolkovsky So I have 6000 hours in conan exiles. To be brutally honest, we justt havent seen enough. Im a beta tester for the game, and I havent gotten my key yet lmao. It'll come when it comes I guess. That said, what I can say; funcom has demonstrated a "capability" with 3rd person action combat with conan exiles. During its peak patches, conan exiles is probably one of the best games ever made. We are currently in a slump, so dont go looking right "now". that said, the movement is what hits me the most. The fluidity of the motions, the climbing aspect, the foundation building mechanics, the visceral combat mechanics... it feels very "conan" by appearance. We just dont know yet. "conan exiles 2" would be *amazing* if done properly. Its quite literally the best survival arpg on the market. It has the best combat, it has the best building, itt has a shockingly decent story with *incredible* voice actors (same guild of actors that does league of legends and all ATLUS games [persona] + gundam animes!), it has fluidity unseen in most games. I keep using the term "Fluid", and its something almost subjective in nature. You have to "feel it" to understand. From what we actually CAN see, the gameplay dynamics appear very conan in essence; and thats honestly an incredibly GOOD thing At the end of the day, funcom has a demonstrated capability. A capability for making *incredible* games... and a capability for *ruining* them.
@@MrTsiolkovsky Same developers?
Yeah but Conan exiles is good asf
Did my reply seriously get deleted? 😐
incoming "so we removed the multiplayer feature"... "so we removed sandworms".. "don't you guys have phones?"
If they would do the foxhole server systems I think they would be fine with the mmo
Just imagine Gene Wilder as Paul Atreides.
It does look good… but they basically haven’t shown any gameplay yet. Could very well be a catfish. We will have to wait for reviews.
Interested, but still very sceptical.
I have 1188 hours in Conan Exiles according to steam. A lot of AFK time there no doubt but I feel like I'm qualified to speak on it. Funcom is a company I have a difficult relationship with precisely because a lot of the stuff they make is so good, it hurts more when they stumble in places, but what I can say with certainty is that they are one of the few game devs out there who actually care about the source material they adapt, and Age of Conan and Conan Exiles are extremely faithful to the Robert E. Howard novels. Being that Conan is one of my favourite franchises ever, and Dune definitely being up there, this matters a lot to me. They are also a dev studio willing to take risks, for weal and woe, so I'm more than willing to at least give them a chance with this. I am if nothing else confident they will not compromise on the pseudo-reality of Arrakis for the sake of player convenience. The desert will be brutal, as it should be.
i'm still mad they used old hai shulud design and not from latest movies, cmon, every other stuff is taken from them so why not sandworm.
Crimson Desert is the game im anticipating the most
Funcom did Age of Conan, which was beautiful and groundbreaking for its time, the first 20 levels. However, you can tell at level 20, the investors were pressuring them to deliver, and the product was not finished, the end game was literally missing and totally lackluster, it never was able to get back what it had and just died.
