About DD materials etc, theres always treasure hunting as u can get a bunch of stuff that way, tho best at night then u can see the markers better in the dd.

This game fun for someone who only wants to play a couple of hours here and there? Reading the steam reviews are putting me off due to people complaining about the amount of time required to invest to keep your base/home intact.

It's more akin to an MMO, As it is an online game, So it is a time sink.

I have tried a couple of times to get into this and could never really click with it, losing my base twice for some reason I'm not quite sure of may have had a bearing on it. Also as I haven't played for ages suspect it's like starting again. I'm playing KCD2 again so may try this again once I finish it.

It's the type of game I really want to play and like so want to give it another shot, I had a similar issue with Witcher 3 and eventually played it and loved that.

From sounds of things this is not the game for me, might watch some people on twitch play it though and get a better perspective. Reluctant to spend ££ on it if i won't enjoy it..... i think i love the Dune universe and lore more than anything and that's what appeals, maybe more than the game itself.

My advice if you like Dune is get it, Enjoy the Dune setting, The stories, The voice acting, The landscape, The atmosphere and base building.

You can easily craft a tax free base and fuel it for 21 days at a time and if you want to just say only play for a few hours once every few weeks then you can now craft the base backup tool that literally packs up your base for you, Including everything inside it, To put down somewhere else or if you are taking a 7+ day break.

On a fun sidenote I decided to taunt shai-huluid, Put all my clothing, weapons etc... in my base and turned my shield on to aggro him
