Does someone remember a message that was sent here talking about why retro styled games these day don't look as good as the original games?

Like something about the hardware or the platform

I think probably the only difference that actually matters is the display

people remember retro games on crt

you can be as faithful as you want but if the end user isn't playing it on a crt it's just not gonna be the same experience

it a reason why the hardcore retro games want to play on old hardware. you can emulate the old hardware 99% correct but that last 1% do make a difference in a lot of cases

I know quite a few dudes that buy Sony's PVMs to play emulated games

super high quality CRTs basically

@Thomas the Sowell Train [USA] Neither I or my friend have enough ram to make a server and play at the same time.

Spanish wtf

@MountainMan In the beginning you primarily need a couple things, the bola, narcotic arrows, and a club. The narcotic arrows are optional but they will become more necessary later on, or for dinos who can't be immobilized with the bola. Every dino has a page on the ark wiki that is worth reading parts of if you think you'll keep and use the dino. It also has taming information.

As far as a server goes, I'm not 100% sure what we'll be able to do about that. Right now I'm sort of waiting for my brother to change gears from another game he's involved in before we get into ark. I know he bought a rig recently so if anything he'll probably be the one to host a server, if he can. If not, I suppose we'll just have to play on someone else's server.

Which would probably add to the experience, honestly. As long as there aren't too many people. I don't know if we're going to go the PVP route or not.

Thanks man! I didn’t know about the bola. But Yeah. We’ll have to find a solution to that.

I’m not really feeling pvp at the moment.

I don’t have the time to be able to keep up with other players. Mostly down for having fun with a bunch of peeps.

Yeah that's fine man, honestly considering the two of us at least are going to be still learning the game I'm inclined towards just PvE as well.

Yeah. My friend has played a little bit, But that was years ago. So We’re basically going in blind.

My brother hasn't done everything in the game, but I think he said he'd essentially completed The Island and most of Scorched Earth, so I guess that will make him Tribe Chieftain.

Did you get any of the DLC?

No. I got the game as a gift from a friend of mine.

I was going to say if you're thinking about it, get the season pass now while it's on sale but then I looked and the sales are over. Well no biggie, Ark has a ton of content from what I can tell so we'll be able to get plenty of action on just The Island.

I hope so! I plan on maybe buying them in the future, but I want to see if I enjoy it enough.

@Goblin_Slayer_Floki just why....

Cause anime kaiserriech.

Do you need a reason?

if it exist you will find anime girls of it

Eh the lawsuit will go nowhere. Substitutions happen. And the digital policy is sound and used by all companies.

The regulation will be in name only at most. Because then tcg and rven the lotto have to be under the same regulations.
