Dune VS Star Wars

[⭐ Will Smith Slaps ⭐]

How similar do you think both games, movies, etc are?

One similarity I could find is the location of this game which is a very similar location in Star Wars including the Dune Worm.

Star Wars a dead IP

Well that's the braindead quote of the day. Thanks for playing.

Both are "great white savior" stories where the chosen one saves the galaxy and all its down trodden peoples. In one the savior is the product of 10,000 years of selective breeding of nobles and in the other the midi-chlorians run strong in his family.

Dune as befits a 1960's story is much more about drugs.

Tell me you haven't read the books without telling me you haven't read the books.

Spoiler alert :
Dune is a warning AGAINST charismatic leaders (like Paul).

Seems to be you've lost interest in a number of things all because of your expectations vs reality. Some recent SW shows are weak but others are pretty good, guess it depends on what you like or watch. As for this Dune MMO you've already whined about it and said it's terrible so...are you going to play it anyway, is that why you linger and keep crapping on it? If it's not your cup of tea then why do you keep sipping? So weird.

I've read Dune many times and most of the rest once.

Paul's hero's journey that of a "white savior" even if the ultimate message is about how that was bad for most of the planets on the receiving end of the jihad.

This is similar to Das Boot being a great war book/movie and arguably the greatest anti-war book/movie.

disney ruined it for starwars

Mostly yes, but some of their SW projects are genuinely good, the early Mandalorian for example is best Star Wars since the original trilogy. The Andor series is also good Star Wars, and so is the Skeleton Crew if you appreciate it as a family friendly show.

The stuff that they ruined ended up so due to political activism, as it made those products repulsive. Star Wars is all about escapism and hero's journey, not modern politics.

andor was good but very slow paced i found myself not watching it more then watching it

When comparing Star Wars and Dune, Dune comes out on top because Star Wars is owned by Disney.

Dune is a Warner Bros.
Star Wars is Disney.

That's all that needs to be said.
