didnt watch until the end as i was "oh ok... great, i got other things to do..."
But...
Here's a thought that many Steam users could embrace. If you're not interested in a game, just avoid it. Stay off the forums. I'm never figured out what the gain is in trying to convince other players to not buy a game they want to buy. You have no financial interest here - so just quietly go away. Surely there is something you actually enjoy doing in life that you could be doing instead - ideally something other than trolling game forums.
I want to say I paid $30 for ASE when it came out and despite it's many issues had a blast playing it, now for over 1250 hours. So if I choose to hand this dev more money simply because of the fact that they've provided so many hours of entertainment for me and friends, is that OK with you? Because part of why I coughed up money despite the reviews and issues is exactly that.
For years ASE had massive content and feature updates for free. Entirely new maps. New dinos for years. If this had been Paradox or so many other sleazebags we'd be paying by the dino and paying for every map and update like it was DLC. $40 or so more now ain't squat in the big picture. Go look how much it cost to be all of EU IV not on sale and be glad for what we have. ASE is selling for $15 now after ALL that extra stuff added and a rich mod scene. Again, if this was other publishers or the 50th re-release of the ultimate version of Skyrim, the total cost for a game this mature would be well over $100.
There is no sub for this game people have literally played for thousands of years as an MMO. Just free everything from the dev.
Look at the big picture is all I'm saying.
My biggest gripe with this game is the MMO element. As with so many great games, I feel like they are BROUGHT DOWN by co-op or MP and their endless issues I used to play co-op and doubt I ever will again. Hacking, griefing, dealing with fools - I'm done with it all. I don't care about the issues with servers - at all. I'd be delighted for this to be a single player only game - or for the devs to at least give one small tiny crap about single player and fix the damn resource respawn bug that persists from ASE.
"I hope you know that Ark 2 is not really Ark anymore.... but a Story driven RPG...." - it's the Todd Howard school of leadership. We have a wildly popular game so let's produce something completely different our fans never asked for instead of what they're begging for. Genius.
