I have it and I wish it was better, I dont think I can recommend. Single player is very poor. It's just a series of skirmishes that mostly play the same (they try to include some variations but I dont think they were succesful at it). AI is very dumb and not challenging at all. After a scenario you get to pick up an upgrade for your faction and we get this weird inverted difficulty situation where the game is the hardest at the beginning and the easiest at the end (I feel kind of the same with total war games). I feel like this game has been made with multiplayer skirmish in mind first, and the campaign and AI opponents were slapped on top of it just to be there.
Another thing is I feel like developers dont exactly know how their game is supposed to work like. They were reworking quite drastically certain mechanics, and it was acceptable when they had their game was in early access, but it has been released as 1.0 full game and yet they're still applying changes and I dont mean slight balance adjustments. Maybe some of those changes are for the better, but again, it strikes me as they dont exactly know what they are doing and its not filling me with confidence.
If you're interested in getting it anyway I'd like to warn you that they like to include more factions as DLC. Their previous game, Northgaard, has like 16 factions and only 6 are in base game. The rest you have to pay for separately. If not owning everything is something that bothers you (it is for me) then be warned about this fact. They already released House Ix for dune as paid DLC.
