The Devil sounds like smoke and honey. We cannot move. It is too beautiful.


the character creation looks miles better then my only other experience with survival games, ark
i don't know if i'd buy this, but i'll be paying attention. i really don't like the whole early access model though, has any survival game ever come out of early access?

Don't think so! But this developer has already launched games and has already stated they do not plan to be in EA for much more than a year.

i mean, being an established developer is a point in their favor, but didn't the ark guys say the same thing though
i'll believe it when it happens

I beg to differ, Funcom is not afraid to release an unfinished product.

as proved by releasing on early access

I'll echo what I mentioned earlier but my biggest problem with Ark was the power gap that forms when a tribe dominates a server and no one can catch up because the power difference in gear (and in Ark's case, dinosaurs) was insane. Of course if you have a core group, you could always just travel to different servers sowing chaos and destruction.

that wasn't helped by some activities in the game taking actual literal hours to days to do, such as taming some of the higher end dinosaurs
did ark ever stop adding new animals to polish up the rest of the game? i stopped paying attention a while ago
