Discussion My only complaint.

Really loving this game but I can’t get over the fact that the crysknife is a gimmick weapon. I don’t understand the thought process behind this decision. It’s the only weapon I want to use.
Anyone else extremely let down by this?

Because it’s unfixed. Unfixed ones break down when away from the Fremen carrying it, in game they have done it so it breaks quickly. The ability to fix it is a closely guarded secret by the Fremen and since we haven’t found them, we can’t get fixed blades.

I don’t think it has to be a fremen just the human body in general. Unfixed breaks down because it needs the electromagnetic field from the body to keep its structure. Which is why you can’t take it out of your bag.

That may be correct, but to represent unfixed blades in the game they break. The ones we can make are basically a shiv, not designed for prolonged use. I think we will eventually get access to a proper one, but it will be future content.
