About game development and classic art

Is it acceptable for video game developers to reappropriate classic works of art?

wasn't that the dude in the book who basically acts like a dick, does one good thing and goes out like a chump

>Liet-Kynes (10156 AG - 10191 AG) was the son of Pardot Kynes and the father of Chani (who became the concubine of Emperor Paul Atreides). Liet was a prominent imperial planetologist/ecologist of Arrakis, the Judge of the Change, and the secret leader of the Fremen at the time House Atreides took control of Arrakis in 10191 AG.
>Despite his loyalty to the Imperium, it was no secret on Arrakis that Kynes was the de-facto leader of the Fremen. Kynes would later become conflicted in his opinion of the Atreides, but found himself allying himself with them. Kynes later aided Paul and Jessica in their escape from the Sardaukar and Harkonnen troops, a feat which would cost him his life.

> Is it acceptable for video game developers to reappropriate classic works of art?

Yes? They have been doing it for years. See how every LoveCraft inspired game has a huge "W-WE'RE NOT RACIST!!" disclaimer. They are ok with exploiting the content made by a racist man but want to make sure people know they are using him for the money and not the beliefs, despite them being tied to his work.

Nothing pisses me off quite like knowing with certainty that any reference to Lovecraft in the modern context will come with some faggot disclaimer about muh raysism, then someone will say
>"everyone was racist back then"
To which another faggot will respond
>"he was considered really racist even for the time"
Then someone will trot out the tired joke about his cat.
I fucking hate these insects.

Not really no.

How turning this character into a woman makes her message more powerful?

Do you guys not understand they were forced to make it a nigger because of the hollywood kikes that funded the game from the DUNC, its a shitty rip off of north guard, that's PR cope posting.

Play Saya no Uta for a great uncompromising Lovecraft story. Very very true to Lovecraft.

>Then someone will trot out the tired joke about his cat.
Me.

t. niggerman couldnt save him

>devs are crying over being harassed on forums
Are you proud Yea Forums?

Don't care they took the jew money, they suffer the consequence for this shitty movie tie in.

Original

A powerful message
One of resistance and hope
It's what Floyd fought for
It's what Fauci struggles to achieve
For a better America
Capitalism is quaking

so it's not the dude that gets taunted by his ghost dad and then gets blown up like a fag?

you guys are like wind-up toys
it's funny to me

It's acceptable for video game developers to do whatever they want to do. play it or don't, that's your options.

>DA JOOOOOOOOOOOOOZ
it's funny because you right wingers love the jews.

No.

>Rewritting characters and History is fine when it serves the agenda

Yes.

>we feel
Who gives a fuck

>just accept it omg why won't you just accept it
nah

these people really just want to bastardize everything they haven't made

More game devs just butthurt that they aren't film makers.

the people crying about this
1) have never read dune
2) can't explain why changing the gender or race of Keynes ruins the character without resorting to shitposting.

>very modern
>black
Hmm

they did the genderswap because of the movie. if they kept the original gender, journalists would smear them with a dekuge of outrage bait articles, and resetrannies would have cancelled the game.

Because they can't make anything worth printing. They're vapid, uncreative faggot hacks

I read Dune. I didn't think it was very good.
Changing the character's race and sex is just performative daftness and you can't argue against this

*sighs*
...its all so very tiring.

they don't have any arguments for why they changed the characters gender

I don't think it would have been a big deal if they actually adapted him properly like you're saying. You're just going to have to accept that many developers are just pretty faggy and eat this shit up themselves

>using him for the money and not the beliefs
That's not what they're doing though (or, at least, not necessarily). They're "using him" for the contents of his works, the stories, the characters, the themes, all of that doesn't have to incorporate racism, and most of his work have nothing to do with his beliefs about race.

It makes the message more powerful. It just do, ok?

Because there is no female freemen character, before
Muad'Dib, outside of that one exiled Bene Gesserit character, that had a large political or cultural influence withing a sietch or Arrakis, thus is make no sense within the world building for a female freemen, before Paul or Leto to have that amount of influence or power.
If this was during the rulership of Alia, or Paul, it would make sense since Paul create that female only guard for Alia.
Follow the fucking book.

>Changing the character's race and sex is just performative daftness and you can't argue against this
'i don;t like it because reasons'.
0/10. next.

Evil can't create, only corrupt.
Notice how they didn't mention the race change. Don't forget Kynes is also the father of Chani and therefore an ancestor to the entire Atreides line from Paul onward.
Remember how many Atreides characters thousands of years after the events of the first book are still redheads? I wonder why they found that problematic.

"i like it because reasons"
gay

>gay
this isn't your blog. you don't have to list your orientation.

Chani and Paul bond over losing their fathers, retard.
She also inherits the priestess position from her Fremen mother, you didn't read the fucking book, they make a big deal out of the Bene Gesserit implanting those functional myths into the Fremen which eventually helps Paul become their leader.

no, u

>made him a woman
>expects me to listen to it in any capacity now
lol, lmao.

the fuck nigga
Kyne isn't Chani's father
The fucking shit u smoking faggot
Stilgar is

why do rightoids simp for billionaires?
already have kid. didn't get upset when keynes was a black woman.

1. I have read dune
2. The responsibility of explaining why something is changed is on the person doing the changing. I've yet to see a comment that explains why Liet being a black female would inform his character better.

why do leftoids simp for jewish ceos?

>2. The responsibility of explaining why something is changed is on the person doing the changing
tldr you can't come up with a decent response.

>DA JOOOOOOOOOOOOZ
it's funny because your side worships the jew.

this game is a guaranteed flop either way

If you have read the books, why isn't the Bene Gesserit in control of the empire ?
You have the follow the rules set by the book, otherwise, its not the an adaption of book, its an interpretation of the book.

Because it's funny

>devs on full panic mode on steam forums

unexpected

Oh look another game i will not buy that will sell shit and will be forgotten cause the only who could even think of play this are dune fans.

>Early Access game

just repeated what you said but in a mocking voice

>You have the follow the rules set by the book
so why did your side assault the capitol after Biden legitimately won? i thought your side was the 'law and order' one?

Dune was never good to begin with.
SF and fantasy are shit for autists who can't handle the real world.
Video games are for children.
Books are for nerds.
And above everything fuck niggers

>so why did your side assault the capitol after Biden legitimately won? i thought your side was the 'law and order' one?
Video games ?

>make everything black and female

WHOA SO DIVERSE

1) i have read ALL the books of herbert
2) you are changing a character that you didn't create for woke points. The crime is the changing of the character, i would have been mad even if they said he was a chinese.
Changing something that you didn't create is a crime, in whatever form.

So has anyone in this thread played the game. even pirated it?
Looking for a breakdown of the actual game that isn't autistic screeching and if its a decent strategy game.

someone has the compilation of strange lightnings that blasted all of this shit, including the fentanyl demon wall?

Sure habbi

game?

Right Dune aside because you might have a point there but the rest of your take means you need to be put down like old yeller.

Northgard with the new Dune movie skin.

Lack of variety in units
Very slow paced
Combat is boring
10+ ressources to manage

Their entire waking lives are a nonstop rolling shitpost. Pathetic.

its a reskinned northgard, they made it as cheaply as possibly because its a movie tie in

they pretty much pocketed all the money and did like 1 months of work.

Never played Northgard, it looked pretty cool.
Best waiting for this to come out Early Access then or in a decently playable state?

All I can think about is that Eragon adaption and how much it bothered me
