I play on both pc and ps4, but primitive plus is more important to me on ps4. With that bias layed out, I would say it should be made a core part of the game, but with an easy to access checkbox for singleplayer or splitscreen players to enable and disable based on tech flavor preference. If a few well explained checkboxes could change both loot-tables and engram availability, I think making all the stuff core would be welcome to nearly all. Perhaps the problem with prim+ specific stuff not being useable in customizeable rp food recipes could be tackled in the integration process? Heck, if different tech tiers could be easily toggled on and off, even stone age playthroughs could become supported? So my vote is core implementation as long as it leads to muuuch better engram-loot control for users in the process. Perhaps even achievements/trophies for defeating certain bosses in worlds locked below certain technology levels? Or am I just getting greedy now...

I... I really really want this to be wrong, but I have the switch version, and there are no moments on the game where the graphical fidelity stays that good for the draw distance you guys display in the trailer. The game looks decent within a foot of the character's face, but drops off sharply over the next two yards, and is pure impressionism beyond that. Not to say that has made it unplayable, but after playing the majority of today on Switch, I've had to take two dramamine to curb the nausea the hyperblur effect has induced. I've really tried to keep positive all day, but this game actually looks to have been deliberately designed to run and look just like this. The game simulates the degree of shortsightedness that would prevent any normal person from driving a vehicle in any circumstances, and we planned on riding wyverns in this mode one day... Please tell us what went wrong? I bought cartridge form due to the claims made by the team in the teaser ages before launch. I wanted to be able to plug this cart into a refurbished switch 10 years down the road and be able to play the island in full for a nostalgia trip. As it is, I want to forget today even happened. I watched servers fill up as soon as I had the game in my posession at home, and when I logged off to take something for the headaches and nausea, I returned, determined to play more ark, only to find most servers had already emptied. Your day one audience burnt out in the span of 4 hours... The game isn't a buggy mess this time around... it's just a really really terrible compromise on the Switch. I've bought this game now on three platforms and season passes on the two that offered them. I don't regret the other two purchases at all. This one... this one scares me. Who decided to make the Switch release a version where you get to play through Lord of the Flies as Piggy?
