Where did all the good dinosaur games go?
Where did all the good dinosaur games go?

Evan Lewis
dinosaurs are too based for nu-vidya desu
Samuel Barnes
i just want far-cry with dinosaurs
Caleb Rivera
After primal I wouldn't be too sure.
Jack Mitchell
People figured out that dinosaurs can't carry a game. Even one with non-human threats as the main enemy would require human antagonists to stay engaging. You need conflict with emotional if not philosophical stakes. That can't happen without human-like intelligence on either side.
Luke Evans
Didn't play that one, what were it's shortcomings? Honestly I'm just looking for Carnivores with a story.
Owen King
They went extinct, I guess.
Jonathan Scott
Vrex chase sequences on ps2 king Kong are still my best experience with dinosaurs in videogames
Connor Baker
Primal was great if you played with all the difficulty stuff maxed out. Needing to find food, limited fast travel, most HUD/handholding elements removed, caveman language, it was a better experience than 4.
Nolan Harris
Doesn't sound all too hard
Maybe something like a JP game where you play an escaped dinosaur. The game wastes no time telling you why the humans are "da bad guys." Only that they're hurting you and you want to stay away from them. Then again, trying to come up with an set objective that'll carry weight gameplay wise might be a challenge.
Jacob Adams
i'm guessing it's because
>muh animal cruelty
>muh feather inaccuracy
>muh scientific accuracy in general
>not serious enough for mature political games
>can just make a zombie game instead
it's a shame
Isaiah Perez
Extinct. This should have been the first post, you all disappoint me greatly
Daniel Kelly
The real question is, why did all the good dinosaurs go?
Leo Cox
I want a game about capturing dinosaurs more than one about surviving them.
Jace Jackson
they became too specialized
Ayden Russell
featherfags need to die
Gavin Thompson
The way of the dinosaur
Dylan Powell
Saurian
Carson Edwards
I can't think of a really good game with dinosaurs...and i love dinosaurs :(
Nolan Howard
Play jurassic world alive. Pokémon go but with rad dinos and 5 times better.
Jonathan Johnson
Dino Crisis 3 killed them all
Tyler Morgan
>tfw everyone only cares about avemetatarsalia attention whores
>tfw no love for mesozoic suchians
Luis Carter
scientist ruined dinosaurs by not leaving well enough alone, there's nothing cool about giant chickens
Grayson Peterson
Is Jurassic Park Evolution good?
I've only heard people talking about big discounts for it.
Elijah Hernandez
It's okay, but it lacks in personalization, which is a big no-no for me in a park sim.
Colton White
When the fuck have there been good Dinosaur games? Aside from Turok but it was primarily a shooter first, Dinosaurs later.
Owen Martin
all birds are dinosaurs but not all dinosaurs are birds you uneducated mongoloid
Carter Morgan
Hey, Sarchosuchus gets love
Joseph Wood
birds and lizards both descended from what we think of as "dinosaurs". Some of them still exist, like crocodiles/alligators.
Ian Miller
Has some stuff for the feather fags too
Nathan Wilson
Was it the case for all dinosaurs? And it probably wasn't feathers exactly like modern birds either.
Ryder Powell
Doesn't ARK have dinos?
Jackson Richardson
Crocs and gators descended from a separate clade: crocodilians lived alongside the dinosaurs, and developed prior to their Triassic debut.
William Evans
Mostly on therapods like late Coeluerosaurians and dromeosaurids
Ian Nguyen
ARK's too busy chasing the chinese dollar with their fucking horrendous sci-fi trash with giant mechs, furry dragons that shoot icebreath and giant kaiju monster bosses.
Robert Jenkins
Don't deliberately spread misinformation
Birds are the only surviving kind of dinosaur, crocodiles are related to dinosaurs, but not considered dinosaurs. Lizards aren't closely related to dinosaurs, nor descended from them.
Crocodiles are more closely related to birds than they are to lizards.
Wyatt Williams
Because dinosaurs take too much work for modern devs.
It's challenging to model and animate a single dinosaur species let alone multiple.
They would much rather just make another zombie game because both the skeleton and animations are easier to make.
Blake Jones
He looks like an alligator
James Jones
Fat alligator
Nathan Anderson
>T-Rex is closer to today than it is to Stegosaurus
The sheer length of the Mesozoic Era is mind-boggling.
Kayden Sullivan
Honestly though how many zombie games are actually in vogue right now?
Julian Jones
The Isle is a good dinosaur survival simulation game where you play as a juvenile dinosaur trying to grow into adulthod and form packs with other players. It's pretty popular on twitch right now.
Caleb James
Chad Alligator
Gabriel Gonzalez
You think the mesozoic is crazy,, wait until you see the Cambrian
Easton Ward
Jurassic Park: Operation Genisis
Jacob Watson
Doesn't this game suck ass
Dylan Gomez
my "friend" wont shut the fuck up about a streamer naned dandi and this game called the isle and ark. so fucking annoying with trash taste
Juan Long
King nigga gator
Brody Morgan
You scrub, the Hadean is where the real chads are at.
William Sanders
The isle is a good game. Ark isn't.
Kayden Hernandez
Not if you like collecting/and fighting dinos. It's a long term grind no doubt but it's a comfy mobile game with a great Dev team and genuinely fun combat
Jason Thompson
Josiah Flores
it's still pretty interesting that like 99% of all genetic variation in earth's life is located in the bacteria and archaea
eukaryotes are pretty inbred overall
Mason Gutierrez

Kayden Rivera
Tiny trex on ass defense duty
Adrian Morales
he cute
Daniel Bennett
Where my Giga Niggas at
Blake Lewis
That's what you get with vertical gene transfer only.
Hunter Garcia
That might be the derpiest carnivore I've ever seen
Kayden Nguyen
at least humans could kick up the eukaryote genetic variation into overdrive
if we ever get those bans on genetic research lifted
Connor Long
Spinochads ftw
Anthony Lopez
Why so many carnivore dinosaurs have bony structures in front or above of their eyes? Did it prevent sun getting in their eyes and made them see better?
Christian Taylor
>boomers will now remember Dinosaurs For Hire
Carter Allen
Fuck man I want more dinosaur games. I really liked Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis all these years ago. The only good recent dino game was essentially it's reboot, Jurassic World.
Angel Gray
The problem with Primal was it was one of their quick asset flip spinoffs they do after ever numbered game rather than a numbered full game itself
Ian Thompson
but there's no good zombie games coming out either
Andrew Moore
Just fought one and whupped his ass
Austin Cook
How are those new hind limbs working out for ya?
Cameron Brown
in some cases it was for mating dislays or possibly intraspecies fighting and in some theropods, probably to protect the eyes when feeding on large carcasses
Carson Ross
hi fellas
Benjamin Lewis
This is a fantasy dinosaur and not something that actually existed, right?
Christian Howard
Spinochads stand on two limbs.
Don't tell me you fell for the quadruped meme.
Anthony Gomez
Carson Walker
Yeah in the game he's a cross breed of a Utahraptor and a Sinoceratops
Benjamin Hughes
What's this?
Jason Cox
Spinolets can disregard their center of gravity now?
Brayden Thomas
The Jurassic Park game for the Genesis.
Evan Murphy
