Chris started playing PC games in the 1980s, started writing about them in the early 2000s, and (finally) started getting paid to write about them in the late 2000s. Following a few years as a regular freelancer, PC Gamer hired him in 2014, probably so he'd stop emailing them asking for more work.

Even casual fans of Dune—for example, people who watched the movies but never read the books—probably remember that Paul Atreides was never meant to be born. His mother, Lady Jessica, was intended to bear a baby girl to Duke Leo Atreides, but instead decided to give him a son as his heir.

Funcom's upcoming survival MMO Dune: Awakening will answer that question. We learned last year when creative director Joel Bylos spoke to PC Gamer that the MMO would represent an"We worked closely with the Herbert and Legendary , and we found a point, a single point, the single pebble that starts a landslide," is about all Bylos would tell us in 2023.

The repercussions are pretty major. Duke Leto is still alive, his assassination seemingly having been foiled by Pauls' alt-history sister, who is perhaps more capable at sniffing out treachery than Paul is. House Atreides survives the Harkonnen attack, too, which is more good news: though the Fremen have supposedly been"exterminated" somehow. It might have something to do with the Sardaukar having been summoned to Arrakis to prevent Leto from fully controlling the spice trade.
