I may as well try it, to see if anything was changed. Not that I really played it much in the first place.

EDIT: Nope. Still don't like it. Warcraft 2 was the first game I consider to have really gotten this genre right. The original Warcraft as well as the Command & Conquer series still beat out this game by a large margin though.

...Namely in how the move/attack is bound. In this not only was movement (and attacking) click-button-click-target, I couldn't even see if this was editable in the options - the "controls" menu wouldn't show up.

Unless they seriously upgraded the enemy AI and your ability to control units, this will only be worth playing if you've never seen the Dune RTS games before or are simply curious. The original game, including it's PS 1 remake are prime examples of games that haven't aged well.
