I've been living on a beta version of Dune: Awakening's Arrakis for the last couple weeks, and despite the game being just over a month away from launch, there were some pretty big limitations on how much I could settle into desert life. Only low-level crafting was available, and just three of the first map's dozen areas were accessible.
There was still enough to keep me busy for about 25 hours, but I couldn't do the stuff I really wanted to do in Dune, like visit Arakeen, meet Duke Leto, and most of all, pilot my own ornithopter, something I've been looking forward to since the survival MMO was first announced.
