I appreciate the 1/3 indicator. As someone with limited time to watch videos i generally want to know how much time I'm committing to a certain video series!
I’m super thrilled to see more dune coming! THANK YOU SO MUCH! I hope we get to see additional play within each of the factions down the road. I’d love to see different strategies implemented with the different factions. Thanks again 😊
If you enjoysed the Harkonen Pillage Party, give the Smugglers a shot. They are even better at pillage economies. In addition they have a unique technology wich multiplies all grievences from previous and furture raids by 0. Which means you can pillage without long term repercussion from the get go with them. In addition with the reduced annex coast from surplus water.. you can steamroll pretty hard.Not to mention that Free Companies + Snipers are just straight up broken. PS: The Agreement -1 with Atreidis is a bug in the interface. YOu won't actually loose the Authoroty, even if he proposes the deal.
I was thinking the gameplay design reminded me a lot of Northgard, didn't know it was the same team. They really are good at making aesthetically pleasing maps.
I really like this aggressive playstyle in contrast to the easy chill Atreides. I kinda hope you scout a little of their area just to check if the AI is as good at how easy it felt to see you get more area, just for comparison. Nice vid. Keep it up.
I prefer the Atredies game play. It's more economic and diplomatic and turns into a juggernaut once you get the economy setup. They can create a lot of allies.
@@EdgarFriendlysCivicsTeacher northguard? Gonna finish beating the game with one of each faction then maybe I’ll get northguard, haven’t played RTSs since command and conquer lol
Just bought it yesterday after seeing your gameplay. I played as the harkonnen and destroyed all the factions. Military is a lot of fun and a little broken late game. Found so many exploits you can use against the ai haha, hopefully they will patch that up.
Dune Northgard? Berserkers? Peter De Vries (he was crazy in Emperor Edition)? YYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh cool stealth scouts so im definetley playing snake clan as the harkonnen.
I don't think it will ever be not weird for me to see a Dune game, and then not see House Ordos, though i get why. Regardless, House Harkonnen, here we go, Devastators and Death Hands all the fucking way!
I started easy highly recommend playing fremen or atrides first it helps you learn a lot then you can try harder factions like harkenon and then start upping the difficulty. I'm excited too play multiplayer

Peter de Vries. Thats strange. Im from Holland, he was our most known crime journalist, who was murdered last year in Amsterdam. Internationally known for the natalie halloway case.
Water deficit will lead to political unrest in villages under your control which starts rebellions but you seem to have enough total water. Maybe there's a per village water stat?

I hate fake difficulty, in that first fight you had with Atreides they kept bringing four new units, no way they had the cash and built them that quickly. Ppl should just make beyter AI instead of letting the AI cheat
I was hoping for a more classical rts like dune 2 was. This defently looks more macro management northgard vibe. Even northgard was more hands on combat than this. What a shame. Might play it but not sure; if it had 50% more dune 2 and less civ I would have rushed to pick it up for sure.

I read a review on steam and they brought to my attention how inclusive this game is to plus sized villains. 🙌🙌🙌 So grateful.
Baron Absolute Unit.
🤔
plus sized? You mean fat?
hope to see you go insane and large map on the Fremen that seems hype
You can tell a lot of love went into this game. I am enjoying it.
"Rabban Harkonnen" is actually Glossu Rabban, with Rabban his surname, his actual given name unknown, and "Glossu" being a nickname.

35:18 The button next to the solari symbol is your spice report. It tells you how much you should have by the next tax
Shit, are the Harkonnens going to bald vampires in every adaptation from now on? That sucks.
Loving the Dune vids so far. I can't wait to play this game. Please go Fremen next game.
I was thinking the gameplay design reminded me a lot of Northgard, didn't know it was the same team. They really are good at making aesthetically pleasing maps.
Nobody:
Baron Vladimir Harkonnen: the Chungus is strong in this one.
Giga chungus, Giga chad's antithesis
Oh man, I'm loving this gameplay. I'm not looking to add any new games to my queue, but this is a good contender.
I am such crazy huge fan of the blue glasses now!!! Love your Dune series!

this game is so fun and your insights are invaluable this early on. thank you!
I reall like the dune series. Would watch again
YAY ANOTHER DUNE VIDEO THANKS MR POTATO
Just won my first game (second attempt) as Leto, loving this game like crazy, really makes me want to see what northguard was all about
That's a corker of a game.
@@EdgarFriendlysCivicsTeacher northguard? Gonna finish beating the game with one of each faction then maybe I’ll get northguard, haven’t played RTSs since command and conquer lol
@@theonlyleg9822 aye, my enjoyment of that is what makes Dune: SW (and my love of the IP) so appealing.
@@EdgarFriendlysCivicsTeacher fair enough :))) will try it then
I'm loving this content the game is SO GOOD. I NEEEEED a competitive ladder to climb for this game
Great video. Nice contrast to the Atreides series.
Here for the algorithm
Happy to see more of dune!
Potato
Militia are citizens of the town, they will not attack their friends and family.
I was screaming for you to deploy that harvester
It really does remind me of Northgard ( which is an amazing game) props to the creators on another potential buy.
same creators
This was a really good video. Thanks for making it.
You can queue up to 3 Research!

Regardless, House Harkonnen, here we go, Devastators and Death Hands all the fucking way!
Give the devs more time. They have plans for at least one new house.
Ordos is not a big player in the dune universe. They are more like smugglers. And the smugglers in this game are more honest to the novels.
@@Rhidcully well yeah, of course they are, cause Ordos are an invention of Westwood.
Still, feels weird
So..... You can take it "HARD" you say Potato??? Why am I not surprised :)
bonk
This seems like a fun, aggressive way to play. Interested to see if there's a way to prevent rebellions besides standing armies.
Good question id also like an answer if anyone has an answer
I know that these videos seem to be underperforming, but please, don't let that get to you. Continue the great work! :)
I don't even think they are 65k isn't terrible views for first in the series
Watching this game confirms that I will absolutely be playing at the easiest possible difficulty simbase style.
I started easy highly recommend playing fremen or atrides first it helps you learn a lot then you can try harder factions like harkenon and then start upping the difficulty. I'm excited too play multiplayer
good content love your enthusiasm keep up the good work
It a trip to see how they intended the game to be we've come so far from dune2000!
I don know why but i already bought this game:)
Can u Upload you videos in 2K (1440p) i love your videos and that will help us to see the ui better and so...
Trying to thumbs up as much as possible, so you can keep doing these dune videos!
More Dune please !
The plascrete must flow!
I just realized the main menu looks like off world trading company’s background
I thought guns weren’t in the dune universe
Projectile weapons aren't useful when people have shields, but can't use shields on dune as it attracts the worms.
U thought wrong
id like to think the Harkonnen as the Imperium of Man in 40k faction
I would love to see a machine crusade event in game that has a low chance to occur.
ah yes the villains. I really hope they add ordos later down the line as thry were my fav not evil but no good. everyone has a price
Unfortunately for you, ordos is not cannon to the books, but there are the smugglers.

Game seems much more action packed on hard. You should feed a unit to the worm, so we can see the animation. :D
Enjoy watching your Dune gameplay. Can I ask, why pillage and not annex?
I like Dune, I like how this game present itself and its ideas etc. but I just know I'm too stupid for this and too lazy.
Thanks for the video.
Time to Katamari Damacy some spices and other houses.
Combat drugs are good, m'kay. 🙂
Oh man.. I wish they had this game for mac :(
I don't understand why harkonen is so popular with streamers
the twisted mentat looks more like a doctor then a mentat where is the juice stains
Pillages make villages
So, basically.... Plascrete ❤️
Peter de Vries. Thats strange. Im from Holland, he was our most known crime journalist, who was murdered last year in Amsterdam. Internationally known for the natalie halloway case.
Northgard and now this 🖤
which is most difficult faction to play? and which the easiest one?
I'm wondering, are the Landsraad resolutions permanent or timed until next Landsraad meeting or some such?
2:12 "i think i can take hard"
you heard it boys.
Water deficit will lead to political unrest in villages under your control which starts rebellions but you seem to have enough total water. Maybe there's a per village water stat?
Each village costs 5 water maintenance
Next play Fremen and large map.
Disappointed that we have yet to get multiplayer… without it this game will die a swift death
weird how the AI can fly troops in when your liberating but you cant do the same.
aww YES Harkonen, the based and redpill faction
Yeah bro IMAGINE not oppressing your people, cringe.

hedge-money 😂😂😂
Nice man :)
Anyone else having an issue where the Fremen can't build the Polar Sink's Water Extractor?
I think that is intentional
They are people of the desert. Though they should need a little less water due to their stillsuits
Will this game ever be multiplayer?
I hate fake difficulty, in that first fight you had with Atreides they kept bringing four new units, no way they had the cash and built them that quickly. Ppl should just make beyter AI instead of letting the AI cheat
Be careful of what u wish for ^^
Are Maps randomly generated every time?
I wonder if this game is on xbox
Hedge Money? Is that like a bank for hedgehogs?
Why no Ordos?

How old is this game? Also where can we get it?
About 26 hours.
@@Munkeh102 oh shit, I am going to have to try it out
Is there a replayability in this game?
They should have tleilaxu faction and bene geserit
How long does an average game take?
looks to me like stellaris in the desert, with fewer options: /
Hopefully he'll realise that the gunners do collateral damage to his own units soon ;-)
3:08 maybe watch the video before you comment
@@ascension0344 I did watch that part. It just seemed to me that he did not realise the exact behaviour of the aoe. I would have expected a comment on the friendly fire otherwise. I could be wrong ofc.
@@llutac he literally says it damages allied units🤦♂️
@@ascension0344 yes but he says it lile It's a good thing, gunners are the worst Harkonen unit
Role playing the United States in dune
Nice bait
@@killtyrant thanks
Boooo long live Duke Leto
Could have a little "darker" feel to it - the faces of the rulers look a bit too cartoonish. A bit more serious look would be beneficiary I think.
There's no microing units in this. It basically just doesn't matter.... And harvesters can auto-avoid worms, so stakes are pretty low actually. It's a very mediocre game. And not an RTS.
If you watched the video you would see that there is microing units, not much but it is definitely there. And the auto feature for the harvesters doesn’t count sending them back. It still interferes with spice production (you can’t exactly harvest spice from the air).
And even if those criticisms held water, there is still the ai to fight
Edit: one more thing to add. I’m assuming that the reason you are complaining that this is not an rts due to dune 2000. To counter that, this is a separate dune game. It’s not dune 2000 2 or something. Therefore, it does not have to be a rts.
How is tjos not a real time strategy xD
soooooo earlyyyyyyyyy
looks hella boring
