I love this game and all it's silliness. I am a huge Dune fan and love the 84 Dune movie, which this game is loosely based on. It expanded the universe and was awesome. Hoping at some point they rerelease these games with modern graphics based on the latest Dune Movie at some point...that would be awesome.
So many of these fmv games have terrible acting, but this guy is on it! Even the assistant seemed present and down with the premise! I know it’s way too late for it but “damn fine job y’all!” 🍻❤️🤘
While I was never as in love with Dune 2000 like I was with Westwood's more famous games these cutscenes in particular always stuck with me. I think the first cutscene in particular says so much, the fact that Edric has the probability of you being a hostile agent calculated as an exact percentage tells you a lot about the paranoia of the Ordos and Edric's nature as a calculating and mentally formidable presence despite his apparent physical frailty. You don't really get the same sense of menace from the other house mentats in this game. Despite that, the fact that he considers those odds acceptable despite the risks being pretty substantial speaks volumes about how the Ordos are struggling on Arrakis - you'd think that if the Ordos were as paranoid as the into makes out, you'd think that they'd never even consider allowing someone with a 44.9% or 32% chance of being an enemy agent anywhere near the faction, let alone be a commander. It just shows that they're desperate. I know Westwood's portrayal of Dune isn't exactly the most faithful to the source material but little things like that make it pretty compelling in its own way.
The statistical odds are even worse because it's not 44.9% or 32% it's both of those put together which is roughly I think 77 ish percent of you being a hostile agent and yet they're still willing to give you at least a chance
There is one way House Ordos can be introduced in the Dune movie universe. Why not let them be a criminal organization that works with smugglers and hire mercenaries to do their work? They have a interest to make money and sends harvesters to Arrakis. Denis Dune films already deviated a bit from the books, so I don't see any problems of having a organization like the Ordos.
I like how, in the year ~10,19X a saboteur is a guy with dynamite strapped to his extremities and fuse wire just hanging about. Also, the Bene Gesserit "witch" is telegraphing her assassination plot big time. Dumbest Padishah Emperor ever. These games misunderstand how the Dune books and world work. But, a game sizable enough to understand them properly would, like any movie adaptation, be REALLY BIG and REALLY EXPENSIVE.
Makes sense, the Ordos origins(in the games) is from North or East Asia(China or Mongolia). The Atriedes should cast Mediterranean and the Harkonnen Eastern European, respectively.
@@someguy1747 Right? I've been toying in my mind a movie or series set in an alternate Dune universe based on the RTS games. Retro-future/Diesel-punk with space travel, and the Harkonnen has armored blimps like the Kirov.

I don't know for sure, but maybe the upcoming "Dune: Awakening" is based on the new movies. It is a MMO. I'd prefer a single player game.

I always swore allegiance to ordos. Never did signed the other campaigns 😂
I'm always sad when people talk about Dune and I'm like "I like the Ordos. Those guys from the footnote."
When he says "I am one such technology" what he means is that cyborgs are highly illegal in the Dune universe
I think he says "I want such technology"
Despite that he had a will of his own going against his creators demands and making his own decisions of how to handle the two enemies of Dune

What system is this game for
Windows and PS1.
there exists a remake for modern systems (look up OpenRA).
I'd cast northern Asian actors as House Ordos.

The founders of House Ordos were indeed Chinese. According to Dune Wiki, house Ordos was founded by a cartel of extremely wealthy Chinese noblemen
The fremen is arabian, and sardaukar are russian

Already finished the other 2 campaigns, wanted more.
They are the honest ones, from the get go.

Because you were born under their rule or were told to do so
