Third faction should be Fremen

Discussion

For me, dream progression updates in the future would be:
The storyline continues into finding the fremen, and you go through trials to become accepted as fremen IF you want to join the fremen faction (If you don't you can branch off with a different story path). This will include some of the general things we see Paul do to be acclimated to the fremen. Then, we can unlock fremen build sets. And sandwalking, sandworm riding :)

I know there's been speculation about what the third faction is confirmed to be (scavenger, etc) but I honestly think the third faction being fremen would be awesome the best for the game and playerbase. Even if it's confirmed to NOT be fremen, I think the best route for the game would be switching the third faction *to* fremen.

On the cover art there's harkonnen, atreides and then the forefront figure which I assumed was fremen - which would make sense! Sandworm riding and just generally fremen items and whatnot would make a lot of sense and bring more players to the game because the Dune franchise is pretty focused on the Fremen, and it's what hooked a lot of people in the second movie. (People I've spoken to seemed to prefer the second movie over the first)
There's the argument that everyone will switch to Fremen but honestly I don't think so, Harkonnen players like Harkonnen and Atreides players might switch to fremen but I think also a lot of players will stay Atreides. Generally, variety is good and if more people play for the Fremen faction instead of leaving the game it's worth it.
