Dune: Awakening, the upcoming massively multiplayer online game, has generated mixed reactions from fans regarding its combat focus, particularly its emphasis on ranged shooting.
Funcom's Creative Director Joel Bylos acknowledges fan concerns about the game's combat approach, particularly the emphasis on ranged elements over the close combat detailed in the books.
The gameplay presentation showcased limited melee options, but Bylos assures that melee will play a crucial role in late-game scenarios as enemies employ shields.
Dune: Awakening is still in development and is set to release in early access in the first half of 2025, indicating potential for changes based on feedback.
