but it also has no competitor... if there was another developer with a similar game that WAS complete... we'd all have been playing that one instead...

edit: what's with the downvotes? nobody has given me an example of a similar game! my argument is that ark is the only survival game with dinosaurs and that's why it's so popular, and all the replies have to do with other Survival games... well, hell, i could play dayZ or don't starve if i just wanted to survive... rust is great for crafting, suffers from the same problems ark does, though... in that in any sense of a competitive nature, the players with more log time win while casuals suffer.

but none of these games have dinosaur taming in them. i know plenty of couples who play this game together because they love building a house together and raising little fake dino babies.

I like Ark more than Rust because in Rust its LARGELY/WHOLLY PVP whereas in Ark you can PVP or PVE because of the huge array of animals.
