Im 27. I played Dune II for the first time yesterday and I am not coming out to tell you all that it still rules. This game is better and more challenging than anything else I've played this year. People should make games like this like they used to.
What's so good about it anon? Big fan of the books but never played the game.

Nothing special IMHO. Sure, it's the first RTS but nowadays it kinda feels bland. Play 2000 instead.

If you havent played it on Sega you've lost a lot of feels.

But Dune 2000 added shitty RPS mechanics where in some cases a fucking Infantry unit is more effective than a tank.

I think it is there to add another layer of complexity, you can also just grind them.
Anyway, anyone here has played Emperor?
How is it.
>>3837897
That existed in the original Dune ...

Love the Sega version. I remember nearly everybody coming into contact with the game being hooked... similar to Doom - a total classic.

Yes. It's okay. I am not sure if you should play it.
Basically, mechanic-wise it was something like C&C 3. I remember that I had to gather my starting army and quickly rush the enemy base to destroy important structures. Otherwise, the enemy starts producing too much units, and your defenses won't hold.

Emperor is fucking awesome. It's like if you had Command & Conquer based on the David Lynch Dune movie. And the single player campaign is insanely cool, and somewhat open ended up to a point.

Emperor has the cool characteristic of not having any working torrent link.
I played Dune II after playing a few newer RTS games, and I still ended up enjoying it.
Excellent game, played on my old 386dx-40.
