There is similar suggestion, I suppose they could be merged.

I like the idea due to uniqueness of creature, also because I have seen the fossils of 8 specimens combined into full skeleton in Azov`s museum. Here are some photo from this musem and siberian reconstrucions.

Given the fact that power rangers premium mods (in fact, small skin-pack and remodel dlcs) are actually exist, I suppose that DnD-themed dlc could sell well, too, and bring more popularity to both franchises. Unlike any other medieval fantasy settings, DnD have quite small representation in PC games, which feature real-time combat. Dragons are usually unavailable in those games. However, "Baldurs gate 3" increased popularity of setting a lot. ARK have many dragons, but even in mods mostly wyverns are tameable and rideable. This year all major DnD dagons (10 species) get redesign and rule changes, described in new rulebook ("monster manual"). My idea is simple: if Wizards of the Coast could collaborate with Wilcard, release map featuring some remote island with a few medieval cities featuring various races as NPCs, skins for player to look like these races, , some DnD-themed wildlife alongside ARK vanilla creatures, and all 10 dragons as tameable and rideable, and all 10 dragons as tameable and rideable. They could be nurtured from eggs, like wyverns, or player could protect wounded dragon who allow ride him after healing, or even have different mechanics for each species to tame, rising hatchling is just easier and more universal one. Mechanically they could be implemented as in "dragon kingdom mod": 2 types of flying (auto-glide or active wing flap, switched by Z key), amazing membrane folding effects, different poses and animations, growth stages from hatchling to elder. The best way could be actually hire "dragon kingdom" mod author, if both companies and "scorchingkami" be interested in such project. Each dragon would feature breath weapons and spells as in 2025 rulebook. Those dragons, while still very strong and even able to swim due to lore, are not too OP, about as strong as giganotosaurus or fantastic tames. For example, even the biggest one - elder red dragon - reach the size or 30-40 meters, maybe 50 if scale-up a bit for ARK, basically a bit bigger than alpha wyvern or giganotosaurus. Main point of their utility - universal creatures, but spend stamina faster in non-appropriate environment, e.g., underwater, sprint on land, using breath attack and spells. Boss of the map could be very traditional - Tiamat, mechanically - winged and flying reskin of hydra boss from Atlas 2018 game, that hydra have perfect size for ARK`s Tiamat, or make her as big as ARK`s king titan. Alternative boss for “evil-aligned” roleplay could be Bahamut, he rarely appears in physical form anywhere, unlike Tiamat. Some of the sggested dragons could be seen here: https://dungeonsanddragonsfan.com/new-dnd-dragon-changes-monster-manual/ https://telegra.ph/Obnovlennyj-dizajn-drakonov-v-novoj-redakcii-Dungeons--Dragons-07-06?ysclid=m6xkiw0zfm864036645 Modern browsers are able to auto-translate text, translation is quite good this year for general understanding.

I hope this is really several hours delay, not several months, as usual.

First picture, right corner - dilophosaurus evolved into primal zerg-like creature.

This creature is probably Zilant. Maybe ice subscpeices. Actually, wolf-headed wyverns were the heraldic creatures of some dynasty near cnetral Russia and Mi ddle Asia. For example-modern flag of the city Kazan.

Main titan is basically Baragon from old Godzilla movies. Earth dominated by titans reminds both attack on titan (story-wise) and Godzilla:planet of monsters (creature-wise), with some elements from aliens and terminator. ARK becomes even mre interesting that ever. I hope oneday japaneese Godzilla will roam the Earth, maybe brought to life by modders. Anyway, I will ride the modded titans, like I always do with modded bosses, and these feeleings are unique for ARK, making it the first open-world game with artificail, yet functional and balanced ecosystem.

Dragon family is rising. We have dragon boss (a bit smaller, than in early access period, but still big), wyverns, rock drake and basilisk. Only multi-headed and asian dragons ar eleft. Maybe next DLC? Anyway, according to youtube videos, all new creatures are great. To devs: good luck in further development/bug fixing!

New boss looks like human reaper from Mass Effect 2, as well a sarena. Mutated elder survivor - great choice for new enemy. I will definately enjoy the fight. Godzillark will test the power of this boss. Nice coincidence: Aberration hopefully comes out at the 25-th wedding anniversary of my parents.

This creature strongly resembles Jörmungandr. Base model is deathworm, but final choice is wonderfull. Modders will definately make it rideable and tameable.

Heterocephalus glaber. I,m glad to see this creature in Aberration. In real life this rodent can`t die or even suffer from cancer, and have lifespawn at least 8 times longer, than most of other rodent.

I like ARK primarirly because of such creatures like this cave drake. There are a few PC games where giant mammals, dinosaurs and dragons can met each other to survive or fight.
