Dune Awakening's release has been postponed from May 15 to June 10, giving developers at Funcom extra time to enhance the game. Early adopters, who already joined closed betas, might feel disappointed, but a successful launch is vital for MMO games. First impressions can significantly impact player retention; negative experiences during initial days, as witnessed in games like Battlefront 2, can drive players away permanently. Thus, prioritizing quality over adherence to initial timelines may yield better long-term player engagement.
Choosing to lock in and envelope yourself in Dune Awakening is a choice to not just dive into this game, but not to spend that time in other games.
History has shown that for live service games, if players aren't happy in those opening days they tend to leave, probably forever.
