Speaking up here, I'd just like to play this solo because Its fun, but I cant even do my favorite map because I cant make Dein saddles. only plus is that Argys can still yoink wild dinos. building pieces are cool, farming focus is cool, the RP has stupendous potential, just the feel of the game seems smoother. I'd be lying if I wasn't imagining Fjorda in prim+ with an andrewsarchus mounting a ballista or light canon instead of a Gatling or using Magmas on lost isle, or...
if the devs released a for-pay map exclusively for Prim+ to fund it like someone else was suggesting, I wouldn't just buy it, id be buying FIVE COPIES so my kids and I could all enjoy prim+ on our various platforms. if the devs just took prim+ off the base game and re-offered it for a bit of cash I'd still pay it back.
I could do Conan Exiles, I have that too, but thralls don't feel the same as dinos. you cant take a blacksmith and harvest brimstone. there are more fun accessories in Conan, even on console without access to 3rd party mods, but the Prim+ stuff all matches better.
my son likes farming, and I like cooking, I like the access to more fun weapons that in standard ark.
if they did a kickstarter I'd pay in, I bet you guys would too
