As long as it's based on the books and not just making shit up like some spinoffs of huge franchises do. It seems they are basing it on some of the prequels that were written by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson. I'm down to give it a shot, but I'm gonna go into it cautious optimism.

I might regret the fuck out of this, but it can’t be worse than the LoTR show right?

And that show is exactly why I'm going in with cautious optimism. Don't wanna get my hopes up.

Making up a new secret history, or using the secret history written by Brian Herbert and Kevin K Anderson?

Edit I should have read the full article first. Looks like it's a mix of the Sisterhood of Dune storyline and new content. Really hoping we do see some of the batshit sorceress shit from the book.

Ah yes! Answering all of the questions about a fantasy world, even those where knowing the answer makes it less fun. Gods I love killing IP by making too much of it. /s
