The Great Schools—Sardaukar, Bene Gesserit, Mentat, and Suk Doctors—all seem to have distinct training philosophies that might directly affect gameplay. The trailer hints that these schools will offer more than narrative flair—they'll define your combat style, utility skills, and strategic options.
The Sardaukar were portrayed perfectly: brutal, disciplined, fanatical. I caught a glimpse of what looked like close-quarters takedown mechanics, possibly hinting at stealth or assassination abilities. The Bene Gesserit’s inclusion is especially fascinating—there was a quick cut of what might be Voice usage or psychological manipulation. Could that mean dialogue or social manipulation mechanics?
Mentats seemed to lean heavily into battlefield analysis and tactics. Will this translate into a support role or battlefield control mechanics? Suk Doctors—though less flashy—might offer survival perks, like healing or poison resistance. That would align with their lore background.
If Funcom leans hard into the depth of Dune’s political and philosophical underpinnings, the Great Schools could become more than class choices. They could be ideological affiliations that shape quests, allies, and enemies. Lore fans like me are eating well! |
