Thanks. I haven't read that one. I'm not much of a reader, actually. But is it really necessary? Heinlein wrote plenty of smut. I took a look at some of the "good bits" from some of his later works. Holy crap, that guy wrote straight up porn! The complete opposite of Herbert.
That is absolutely correct. I tend to associate the two simply because they are contemporary and because I read them close to one another in my teenage years and thought "Both of these would make for some great porn." Maybe making a porn parody of Heinein's work would be somewhat redundant but I would play it

I've read some Heinlein, but not Stranger in a strange land. I agree he can get steamy as is.That is absolutely correct.

Thanks for letting us know anyway. Do you dislike Daz or 3d in general, or is it specifically something about this art? Anything we can improve?
its just most 3d art games have an uncanny look and i think most of it probbly with how daz3d itself looks i usually prefer 2d art games even ai art if they look gud (example: starmaker story), ill still keep updated with this gaem since i love the franchise since the '84 film and i enjoyed it so far...also youre right about the clutter maybe u can just release the images later on
Thanks for the feedback, though I'm sorry the new direction does not work for you. I hope, when the time comes and we release the next update, you at least download it to try and see if the final result works for you or not. But I fully understand that, if 3D games look uncanny to you, the new look might be a deal breaker for you.
ill definitely try it once at least thanks, i sound so anticlimactic but maybe i wont drop the game at all haha consideing unlike other daz3d games this one is primarily text based so ican just kindof ignore the images if i dont like it, all the best on the next update!!!
Thanks for considering trying it.
Which characters do you have problems with? Is there anything that could be done with the character models that would align them more with how you imagined them?Let me give my opinion too
I'm not an opponent of 3D art in games, regardless of the rendering engine, but in most cases DAZ3D looks very... unpleasant.
It feels like some sort of ominous valley effect, and also the emotions look grotesque most of the time.
I realize that for a Dune game, choosing HS or Koikatsu is not acceptable.
However, your renders look quite nice, but unfortunately I don't see any resemblance of the characters to how they were shown in the movies/series or how I imagined them from reading the original books. But maybe it's a matter of taste and personal fantasy of everyone.
I've seen some developers improve their renders with Stable Diffusion, maybe it's worth a try?
a suggestion from me, can you make paul's hair have 2 or more different styles? one that's more slick and 'cultured' before the baron invades and one for after that's more scruffy and fremen stylized?
OKay, so others have given their opinions so I will too. Im not against the 3d desigs. Regarding the main characters, I think the best one si Jessica she could use hair that is a bit darker maybe. I still believe there is room for improvement, specially for Paul, I don't know what it is but he feels odd to me, maybe his face is a tad uncanny. And Alia is fine too, same as Jessica she could use darker hair, since they look quite blonde in the pics. Other than that I have no complains. Body proportions seem good and logical, I love that.
I think this should be fine as is, the very bright lighting in that image gives their hair a lighter tone that normal, see this image for Jess' hair in other renders
Please allow me to chime in as well. I was actually surprised how fitting your new characters look. Paul looks very young, like a real 14 y.o. boy (and that's a good thing), Jessica looks haughty as all hell, even their clothes look very setting-appropriate. My only gripe so far isn't with their faces, but rather with Jessica's boobs. They aren't simply big - we're talking about a full blown bakunyu here. I always had an impression that your work is supposed to be more serious and closer to the books in tone compared to 'Behind The Dune', and I'm afraid these giant booberinos are very 'Behind the Dune'. Is there a way to reduce their size? You know, to make them just big instead of hentai big.
don't think i agree with the bakunyu take. pretty sure that would require them to be larger than her head. in these preview pics they're about the size of her head if not very slightly smaller. (idk about you but the bakunyu i've seen have tits the size of inflatable giant beach balls.
) we gonna get plenty of flatties and b-cups later in the game i think.
