also why isnt their fishing bait like worms bees and grubs, i mean theres more to fishing then lures, plus adding such content could add more flavor to game? Also huge question these dlcs< do they add are a to the map we already play on? would make sense since its same world. Or is it dumb like ark were u just get a diferent map to plat on entirley?

Go to the M4 Olympus area, for example, and they will quickly ‘rip your head off’, you will have to fight back non-stop for 5-10 minutes.
And predators do not chase deer because they act together as a single group, the deer just pretend to be ‘peaceful’.

Because at the moment this is the ‘author’s idea’, it is quite possible that in the future, if such a request appears from a sufficiently large number of players, new types of bait will be added.

Map Olympus = base game.
Map Styx + Map Prometheus = these are two additional DLCs.
There are three large maps (8x8 km) and many Outposts in the game.

Worms, bees and grubs would be perishable. F that. I can make a stack of lures and they stay forever. I pass on that level of realism. Fishing is a mid to end game thing anyway, and not meant to be a source of food. It's for trophies and aquariums mainly.

Most of the dlc are just cosmetic packs.

The devs have been very upfront that many of them are just a way to donate funds to the project, while getting some cool stuff in return. I bought the painting and crystals dlc, and I LOVE IT. The painting are awesome, and the geode lamps glow in the dark. They turned out to be totally useful as markers. I have strings of these geodes through the longer caves on prometheus. They allow me to run through the whole cave in complete darkness.

There are two major dlc that add entirely new maps (yes, like ark). The styx pack and newfrontiers dlc (which adds prometheus). New frontiers adds tonsssssss of new content, including new animals and creatures, weapons with elemental effects (freeze, burn, poison, shock), new resources, etc.

Then there are outposts. Those are tiny tiny tiny maps with endlessly respawning resources. sort of like a creative mode. There for people to build dream houses, etc. I think they're useless, but many people seem to like them.

After that there are only a few dlc that add new functional, game changing, stuff to the game. Like the laika/pets dlc. Some part of that dlc are available to everyone: you can order chickens, cows, sheep and dogs from the workshop. Buying the full dlc for pets gives you horses, cats, more specific breeds of dogs (german shepherd, pugs, etc), and some other stuff.

I seem to have written everything in detail above and even given a link to a resource where you can see all three large maps that are in the game (as well as Outpost).
