Age rating for ark survival evolved?

[Dusk]

im thirteen and want this game so bad i good only find one site with a recommended age rating and it said 14+ which is close enough whatchya think

I'm honestly surprised your actually worrying about your age and the ESRB. Most don't care at all. Personally I would rate it as Mature (17) as you are killing things and there is blood, and online with others you cannot rate. Still your call.

Just looked up an ESRB from google and it states Mature as well.

For my children and grandkids, it would depend on how mature the teen is, But, if they wasr only a few months shy of turning 14, i would ok it

ok thanks im 13 and a half so dunno might need some persuading my parents but the dont mind online and the violence and part nudity may be a slight problem but fingers crossed

It all depends on the server and admin. My 9 year old son plays with me on our Fantasy PvE server but I am able to police things myself and with the help of other admins. You just need to be careful what type of server you play on.

Here is our info if you want a friendly place.

ARK:Dragon-Age Primitive Fantasy Realm (Fun, Friendly, Populated but lots of room to build!)
We will be going primitive+ as soon as the use of mods is figured out. :) RPvE

If you play single player, the only violence is against the Dinos, And im pretty sure you can turn off the blood.

so long as it is bought by an adult who feels this game is ok for you to play i see no reason to keep you from it. howerver, that adult must realise by allow you to play if somthing happends that they dont like they can only stop you from playing and are not going to be able to go after the company that made this game for damages.

now single player i see no issue keeping you from playing it, online not tell your older, the comunity can be toxic at times and thats where the mature rating i feel turely is justifide.
