Players in Dune: Awakening's community have raised concerns about the sandstorm mechanics, especially in the Vermilius Gap during single-player mode. The sandstorms currently last about 10 minutes, requiring players to find shelter for extended periods. This prolonged sheltering interrupts gameplay flow and diminishes immersion, making it harder for players to enjoy the game. While brief sheltering during storms is accepted for realism, the extended duration is widely seen as excessive. This feedback highlights a potential need for the developers to rebalance weather effects to improve player experience.
