In survival MMO Dune: Awakening players can 'see just a little bit into the future' once they get 'saturated with spice'

Paul Attreides.

In survival MMO Dune: Awakening, the spice you harvest on Arrakis will play a huge role in crafting, the economy, and even the base taxes you pay to the emperor. But the famously expensive space drug can also muck with your mind, and while it doesn't sound like it'll transform you into a weird gross slug monster (like the guild navigators in Dune), it will still have an impact on your character when you're exposed to it.

Today Dune: Awakening's creative director Joel Bylos let a bit more information about the MMO's spice system trickle through his fingers. See what I did there? Like how Paul Atreides is always letting sand trickle through his fingers when he's thinkin' about Dune stuff? That's the mental image I was going for.
