It will hopefully come as no surprise that I don't have a Dune: Awakening review ready yet. The "head start" launch of Funcom's survival MMO was only a few days ago—full launch is today—and even though I've already sunk about 25 hours into it, Dune: Awakening is a massive game and I've still got a long, long way to go. Give me a month? Ish? I promise I'll have a verdict.
In the meantime, here's some early good news from someone who doesn't particularly like MMOs: so far, I like Dune: Awakening. Part of the reason is it doesn't really feel like a typical MMO. It feels more like a co-op survival game, at least at the start.
