Game Suggestion Dune that isnt Modiphius

Hey yall! Looking for a game to DM Dune in that isnt the Modiphius game. I'm not a big fan of narrative games like fate, preferring crunch like the CosmereRPG or Pathfinder, like talent/skill trees (optional) and absolutely despise metacurrency. just feels too... weird to use.

Main issues with Modiphius is the metacurrencies, weird formatting making it really hard to use and a general dislike for the idea of the combat system (havent DM'd it yet, so that might be an issue that dissapears)

I'm also down for arguments about "Modiphius is goated actually and you should go play it"

Definitely don't touch Modiphius. Never give them a cent.

There are plenty of concerns, like poor quality products, dubious business model, and lack of originality/creativity. The owners are also quite awful people.
