In Dune: Awakening the first players have already reached the endgame. They share the opinion that the endgame has many issues. Other players show little understanding.
Why is there criticism? In Dune: Awakening the first players have already reached the endgame. The survival MMO only started on June 10, yet there are already those who are fully equipped and ‘finished’ with the game. They are currently frequently complaining about the endgame and that it offers little for them:
- Player Brobee_ explains on Reddit that most of the PvP occurs only in the air with the battle thopters and armed ornithopters.
- Player linegel explains on Reddit that the marketplace and trading in the game generally barely work because there is neither a real supply nor a genuine demand.
- Things like ‘goomba stomping’ other players are criticized by Darqsat on Reddit. He also attributes a lack of PvE content as well as issues in PvP to Dune: Awakening.
But there are also voices that have no understanding for the whining players.

It’s your own fault if you rush to the endgame
How does the opposing side react? The community of Dune: Awakening is divided. While hardcore players would like more content in the endgame and tend to show dissatisfaction, more casual players praise the title. In response to the criticisms of hardcore players, player arshg04 reacts on Reddit with the post: “Rushing to the endgame ….. just to complain.”
In it, he explains that he already has 45 hours in the game, is only level 55, and has completed 4 of the main mission trials. He has neither built a buggy nor an ornithopter so far. He still has to discover 50% of the map.
Player Ambitious_Demand9999 explains below on Reddit: “There’s no wrong way to play, take everything in and enjoy it at your own pace. I’m around level 60 and just finished the last trial.”
LegLegend emphasizes on Reddit that there’s no “wrong” way to play the game; you can explore the Deep Desert early on and even benefit from it. Although he finds the game overall great, he criticizes the endgame PvP as unbalanced and too focused on aerial combat. Ultimately, he supports the dedicated players who want to improve the game rather than focusing on the negativity of a few.
That the endgame in Dune: Awakening is not running perfectly at the moment is evident in several places. One player doesn’t care that the endgame is designed for large guilds. He shows how much fun can be had in the survival MMO even alone: Players complain that the endgame of Dune: Awakening is only meant for large guilds – but solo players still have fun
