What do you think of Ark The Animated Series?

[Raggedy Annie]

For me, I really like the story line....though the art style isn't really to my taste. I really enjoyed it regardless.

[Dradiin]

Its great, but out of all the streaming services i have Paramount+ is the absolute worst one.

[Raggedy Annie]

Boy...when that arrow goes through Bob's head! I'm like is he gonna spawn back...but that's a game thing I guess. Though...that would be like a Groundhog day nightmare...lol.

[Santiago]

Why is Bob so underestimated, why he was killed without revealing the potential of the character. I feel sorry for Bob, I was in a misunderstanding when I saw him dead. Animated series looks amazing, but the Ark series is interesting to watch knowing the lore and the game itself. this atmosphere of Ark is incredible.

Not sure why after reading my thread you needed to start your own but ok.
I'll delete mine as im not a glory ♥♥♥♥♥.
EDIT, it was not really a question, since i wont read any replies save your low rent effort to clap back. You running out and making the exact same thread says all i ever need to know about you. Goodbye

It's just a thread who cares ;p maybe they didn't see yours. OT : Just watched episode one and im enjoying it more than i thought i would.

Saving the last episodes for when Dragon's Dogma 2 starts to download.

I'm just glad they focus hardcore on the lesbian aspect of Helena. So brave, so beautiful, so many caps to see

episode 1 was woke garbage written by people who aren't smart enough to have the job, like 99.9% of everything hollywood has produced for years. if episode 2 isn't a lot better i won't make it to episode 3. helena was a strong character because she was smart and observant, but in the series she's just a mary sue so far. rockwell starts out evil, the roman gladiator wasn't strong enough, fast enough or smart enough to survive 5 mins with her.

the liberal who wrote this has no clue they made her pointless instead of strong, they don't understand strength because strong people don't become liberals, that's why you get less liberal as you age, otherwise you don't age

[Sarecho]

yeah episode 2 shows helena's aborigine mother teaching her to fight the white demons. i'm done, i figured it was gonna be trash and it's trash

if you like the latest marvel stuff, this series is for you. if you're a normal person, there's no reason to watch it, it has nothing to do with the game really.

1/10

I've written about this on the announcement of the series thread in events but basically it was bad with the writing being the main culprit, not because of the things others are bandwagoning about but because it just was bad in terms of pacing throughout the entirety of episodes, telling instead of showing, forced/rushed character development especially in the first episode, story(not game lore but series story itself) continuity issues through out, and more.

An easy one continuity wise that I've cited is the parasaur being bound and beaten by soldiers in Nerva's military compound where they keep all dinos penned and secure else wise.... to have mere scenes later that parasaur, roaming freely in the compound unbeknownst to guards, show up to say hello to Helena. Again that's just one easy one in that episode, as there were more and in other episodes to.

Paramount having streamed that first episode(the longest of all of them even) for --free-- over on their Twitch account for the day of release running it back to back over and over (ceased now btw) leaving the rest of the much much smaller episodes to be charged for for viewers, coupled with the fact that virtually little to no promotion/marketing for this was done prior to this.... well, that pretty easily says Paramount doesnt have much confidence in it being successful. They didnt even make it a point to promote you could see it for free either, nor did Snail-Wildcard, Jeremy or Jessy.

In fact it was a volunteer Moderator for Wildcard's forums(including here) that was one of the first to promote that first episode being free on twitch then to watch.

So when you take into account everything, its just bad.

Funny how so many people overuse the word "woke" nowadays. Newsflash, everything you're whining about calling "woke" was happening a long time before you were even born. Homosexuality has always been part of human nature, shoot there are over 1500 species (that we know of so far) that have homosexual tendencies. As for protesting and picketing for what you believe in...well...if you don't know about that through history..there's not much help for you.

It's not all that deep. It's just a cartoon. Yes, we all agree that Wildcard is the Big Bad. But, for me, I really hope it brings in new players and more revenue to go towards this great game. We're all here because we love it so much...and sad but true, without money there will be no game. It's that simple.

First episode was fine. episode 2 was disappointing. Hope 3 turns it around

Given almost no mass promotion and even limited as well in what was done around the player community, and as well just after the spring sale has ended and it had almost no impact and the last day since its release has had no impact to that context with the series, I think likely you should ground your expectations accordingly.

As for depth, its not even about depth with what I was pointing out unless your expectation is for a target audience that would not even meet the rating for the show nor the game :P. It was just not well put together on various fronts and it shows.
