anyone hyped for this? https://youtu.be/nlt4o-mLxyM?si=HT3xiRx0Rl3RYwHO
>>5131378it looks prety cool, looks to be an alien isolation meets jurassic park but actual good and accurate designs. Pretty based for having allosaurus and quetzal as the main big predators.Im optmistic, the reaction on /v/ was pure cancer as expected.
>>5131378It can be good as long as the devs don't concern themselves with tryharding to make accurate dinosaurs scary. They probably will do that though.
>>5131378brought to you by the same people who made mixtape, the 10/10 game with only 1(ONE) thousand players
>>5131402Birds were very scary for most of our primate lineage, it was when we evolved to homos that we stopped being hunted by eagles but some people I have met legit feel afraid of staying near birds of prey when close to then, probably from our species councious leftovers like being afraid of snakes, spider and pointy teeth.Besides have you seen a chicken kills rats, its like the most brutal shit ever. Make big cats look like merciful killers by comparison. Now imagine an feathered yutyranus grabbing your leg with its mouth, shaking you violently, your torso and head hitting the ground until it manages to rip your leg off, then it put his one leg on your torso, putting one tonne if pressure on your belly, making you shit your intestines out and puke blood. The yutirannus eating you chunk by chunk, until it can full swallow you and gulp, with its face and neck feathers all soaked in blood. That's how mouse dies to chicken, just that you are the rat being eaten by overgrown chicken with teeth
>>5131402They did make a very accurate Hatzegopteryx though which is infinitely scarier than the typical pterosaurs we get in media
>>5131569Animals are scary because of their actions, not appearance. You don't look at a stock google image of a lion and think "gosh that gives me shudders!" even if our ancestors were being eaten by lions thousands of years ago. Actual context is needed, which is why stuff like the bear attack in Revenant or Jaws works. Most people trying to push "Accurate dino horror" will just draw something like pic related and expect it to make people shit their pants. (Or do some analog horror creepypasta thing) Which doesn't work because it's trying to do appearance based horror with a regular animal. An animal is never going to match the Xenomorph, Jason Voorhees or any other fictional horror monster in giving you goosebumps with sheer appearance alone. You actually seem to already get what I mean based on your description of a Yutyrannus attack. I'm just hoping the game can pull that off. It should be way easier to do in a game where the player is forced to be a part of the scene, but you never know, people can be surprisingly good at fucking up something handed to them on a silver platter.
>>5131573True, I do now get it what you are saying. And for real animals don't give dread like a serial killer or an alien give it to us. But I would also say if there was like an type of real existent animal to be the closest thing to give fear to your bones, in my opinion, would be a theropod. Like if a saw a big cat, bear or a shark I wouldn't shit my pants but of course still be afraid. Maybe because im familiar about then and know there are ways to circumvent then knowing their behavior, even if leads to my inevitable death.But in a scenario meeting like an allosaur with no guns, wtf would I do?! It's impossible to intimidate it, pretend to be dead is guaranteed death, there is no punch in the snoot so it goes away, I'm just the right size of its prey and have zero knowledge of its actual behavior. And also im going to be eaten alive violently.Because we don't know how an actual theropod behaves, there still like an mysterious and brutal violence to them that would make me, seeing one in front of me, absolutely shit my pants. But hey that's me and I still agree that animals and including dinosaurs dont give any type of dread or fear normally.
>>5131378I really like seeing accurate deinonychus depicted in a video game, makes them all the more intimidating assuming they would kill you like a hawk via mantling.
