Jumped into this after watching the movie. Excellent setup, great room descriptions and good execution. Problem with this MUD is the small player base. Each time I put in time there was only 15 or so players logged in. I put in over 20 hours on the game and NEVER passed or came in room contact with any other player.

The newbie sections were great, but the area appeared to have been abandoned as the donation rooms were empty and other newbie assistance caches were bone dry. This game is fundamentally great, but lacking any real players. At one point I mentioned the lack of interaction to the other players at which time I was advised to QUIT if I didn't like it.

If you're planning a trip into the Dune universe, expect a lonely adventure with a cold reception from it's inhabitants if you ever come across them.
