** The TruerToTheText premise of the game wasn't appreciated by fans of the older ''Dune'' Westwood RTS games, who wanted a pure ''C&C''-like RTS instead of a 4X-RTS hybrid. Other "change" criticized included the Atreides no longer being blue and the lack of House Ordos, two elements that weren't in the canon franchise but are original to Westwood's version to begin with. Ironically, the Harkonnen being red is ''also'' original to Westwood's version[[note]]In the novels, their house colours were blue and orange[[/note]].

* GuideDangIt: In ''Conquest'' mode, one of the conditions for victory is to befriend the Fremen, but the game doesn't tell you how to do so. To earn points with the Fremen, the player must ally sietchs in the various scenarios and not pillage them.

* TheyChangedItNowItSucks: Some elements of the game's interpretation of the ''Franchise/{{Dune}}'' resulted in a backlash from vocal minorities of the fandom since ''Dune: Spice Wars'' announcement. It seems to have died down a couple of weeks after the game's early access release, though.
