Dune Awakening devs clarify role of religion in upcoming MMO: ‘The player is not a messiah’
Fans of the Dune franchise should be familiar with the central themes of religion, prophecy, and heaven-sent saviors and their effects on native societies. But in the upcoming Dune MMO, Dune Awakening, players will have the opportunity to view the many religions of Arakkis through a fresh set of eyes.
Earlier today, the Dune Awakening developers, Funcom, released a statement on social media clarifying exactly how religion will be handled in the game, confirming that the player-character will not serve as any kind of messiah.
