That's what makes him a good representation of dumbass hyper masculinity. All he does is stand around being confused and violent and stupid and is mostly just good for fighting and climbing and growling.

It would be more bearable if every other character didn't spend half of their time talking about how cool and how much of a badass Duncan Idaho is.

For real though, it's 100% obvious that the BG series will be based on @duneauthor excretions. We have only fragmentary knowledge of Bene Gesserit machinations in half of Frank's prose, while his failson pretends to have written a whole book solely dedicated to them, plus his stuff concerns the events leading up to Dune proper, including Gaius Helen Mohiam's venomous pussy fangs.

uber_stoat posted:Paradox, you know what you have to do... Nah, Funcom have the rights: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2019/02/27/funcom-announce-dune-games/ They just released a Conan game with Petroglyph Games, who are ex-westwood staff so maybe a Dune RTS by a couple of the original creators of the Dune games (I think most have retried/moved to other companies) could happen, if they're not too busy working on the Command & Conquer Remaster which just went into full production this month. They said 3 games, with an MMO announced as one so expect a mobile game for the other and we can only hope an RTS for the third.

A Dune fighting game actually sounds kind of rad. Especially as an old school 2D fighter with elaborate sprites.

Duncan is like an even more absurd Boba Fett — in Dune he’s just a random minor character, his relationship with Paul is all implicit, and he barely does anything worth noting before he bites it. So now here’s ten more books about him and what he did for the next 5000 years. Somewhere between Dune and Messiah, Herbert really changes tack on him. I already noted that there’s a weird factual inconsistency between the two books about the circumstances of his death, but the tonal inconsistency is even more jarring.

Arrakis would be a pretty boring setting for a game. once the thrill of seeing stuff from the books wears off, it’s all a big desert.
