This one looks sick and makes the ocean interesting

[@sp_ce.]

This legit may be the best creature ever made, mods or vanilla. Absolutely amazing.

[@OVER-RANNUS]

I can’t wait for this mod when it comes out on console!!!

[@dier7144]

You really meant it when you said everywhere prehistoric didn’t you?

[@OVER-RANNUS]

@@dier7144 Yes!! But it seems you get around the prehistoric community yourself.

[@francisweller839]

I sometimes don’t like garuga’s creature because they feel overtuned, and while this is certainly strong, it’s not so strong as to invalidate the rest of the ocean. Plus, I love anomalocaris, and I’m always happy to support garuga. Thanks Becca, you just secured a buy for this mod

[@aechman67]

This feels like too much for 1 creature. So much detail, I really wish every Ark creature was this fun and detailed. I would definitely pay like a full priced 20 dollar dlc for 5 premium creatures like this. Definitely wish every Ark Creature was this detailed.

[@udamthewaster9454]

I know right some dlc creatures are pretty good but nothing like theses!

[@dylanthedinosaurking4009]

This makes me wonder what else there is in store! 🥰🥰A wonderful mod!!

[@goldenwolfae]

gonna have to breed three different full color mutations for each level up, itll take forever but style matters more than time

[@DarkEdgeTVSurvival]

Agreed entirely :D thankfully these guys seem to look beautiful in almost any colour, there's so many options

[@MrNobodyx41]

Excellent as always but I ask if I buy the mod and the nitrated server where I play doesn't have it, I can't use it, right?

[@elastico8576]

I do have a question tho, does everyone on a server need this mod to play it or is it only the server owner who has to buy it?

[@DarkEdgeTVSurvival]

Currently, yes, BUT it looks like Premium Mods are getting some big changes soon. I don't know the details, only speculation, but it IS being reviewed

[@lugga306]

So Pc only for the moment ?

[@DarkEdgeTVSurvival]

Currently, yes only PC. Until Premium Mods hit Console

[@tuckmasterg]

Well Youve convinced me to get a PC Shedding the outdated Xbox shell and get premium mods lol

[@rhettbutler5397]

I love it but it being premium kinda kills the hype

[@YOURBAEQUIN]

Wtf?!! Even mods are Paid now???😂😂😂😂😂😂 GG ark well played😂

[@MarvinVoid]

Did Garuga steal from the Additional creatures mod-? They added this creature to their Mod first, and it looks too similar to their Model-

[@DarkEdgeTVSurvival]

Nooo? That's a huge reach. Garuga livestreamed and shared plenty of WIP of his Anomalo sculpt and process, and also no one owns rights to any prehistoric animals, Anomalo is in The Sunken World too.

[@MarvinVoid]

@@DarkEdgeTVSurvival i just had that feeling considering recently there has been some Drama with the Ark Additional Creatures and the Prehistoric Beasts mod, as the owner of the Prehistoric Beasts mod stole a lot of models from other people including the owner of the Additional Creatuees mod, which resulted in the owner of the Prehistoric Beasts mod to redesign creatures as an appology, yet because he stole a Model from the creator of the Additional Creatures Mod, the owner of said mod removed his Oxalaia Model. So when i seen this Model and the Anomalocaris from the Additional Creatures mod, you can see why that was my first thought.

[@DarkEdgeTVSurvival]

With that pattern, it sounds more likely that Additional Creatures would steal from Garuga then, not the other way around. But that's not possible anyway due to AC sharing theirs first and Garuga keeping his stuff on lockdown and not sharing it at all. So I think it really is just a coincidence. Like I mentioned earlier, prehistoric creatures aren't copyrighted or owned, it's likely we'll start seeing more "duplicates" or "mirrors"

[@bouganhagain8131]

So when you have a paid mod I assume everybody needs to have paid for it to join your server? If so, thats a big hurdle.

[@rhettbutler5397]

I was wondering this too because I wouldn't mind getting it but no way I could convince all of my friends on my server to spend 5$ for 1 creature that lives in the biome that only I care about

[@bouganhagain8131]

@@rhettbutler5397 yeah, if it was that they just cant interact with it it would be great, but if not thats just a big old reason to not pay for these creature mods

[@Fractiøn-pilot]

​@@bouganhagain8131 i think if the server host has the mod, everyone automatically has this mod temporarily on the servers host, once they leave they don't have the paid mod anymore.

Since I watched your Glaucus vid I've been having a lot of fun with it on my Xbox, glad I saw it on your channel. This is also a great mod and can't wait to get it. Will probably get three of them, each with one of the special abilities 😊

[@creptile1718]

This is something that the ocean NEEDED! Truly this biome needs so much love as right now it is such a sad waste with a ton of environmental potential! Love the idea of the disguised Icthy, super ingenious!!

you got 5 bucks and a credit card? its a paid mod

If I ever get ASA I'm so buying anything Garuga makes dude. They're so cracked at making enjoyable and creative creatures its not even funny.

the ocean just became a lot more scarier with this creature

[@davidvasko957]

They better hurry up and make it so premium mods are on console 😩

[@wulvve]

Hmm. I wasn't interested in Anomalocaris initially - as a creature, regardless of paid mods - but this video actually changed my mind on it. Whenever the next map with an ocean drops, I'll probably actually pick this up! Thanks for the spotlight.

[@DarkEdgeTVSurvival]

Happy to help 💕 the versatility and combat styles for this creature has actually made it my new favourite ocean tame, I do hope you'll enjoy it as much once you get your hands on it!

Hey darkege abt the paleo ark by when u say "the beginning of april" is it lile april 1st or sometime at the beginning of april?

[@anomalocaris_man]

as an anomalocaris i can confirm that this is swag

[@rubinadragon]

Really interesting take on the creature, the animations are really smooth too.

[@stuffofhorror6184]

First premium mod I do not agree with. $5 for a singular creature. Especially one that's limited to the ocean, the worst biome of them all. There's nothing to do down there. I do understand the need for money to fund other creatures but the first creature should've been land/air. I'm all for supporting amazing modders but I can't just waste money on a thing I'll never use, as it has no use. The mechanics are cool though. Shows amazing promise for future taming methods and requirements :)

[@Voxen712]

at first I was sceptical about the mod being paid, but the skill tree and abillity variation along with the little subspecies' details gives one tame a whole new layer of depth. awesome stuff!

It looks great! So happy that something new is the ocean. Garuda does great work, and I’m excited to see what other creatures he has planned. I hope that any of his future plans include birds, as I’d love to see the group become just as diverse as the others in Ark.

[@Ragstag]

So I wonder if this is coming to the game

[@tonybablony2041]

Paid mods is not a great idea, they should just set up a revenue source and pay creators, which I know is easier said than done. Because I can’t see people dropping five bucks or more every time they want a new cool dino, it just seems like an oversight for the community. Imagine if Tinker’s Construct was five dollars, or imagine is The Aether Mod was ten dollars back when mods in Minecraft were becoming a big part of the game. The point I’m making is that if we start monetizing community content it’ll kill the community. Which sucks but that’s the way of life, what used to be free content (mods) now cost money if they’re “premium” enough in a busted, money grabbing game. Just a bad look overall- I feel bad for the mod dev though because it would be awesome for him to get paid but I just don’t think folks will pay.

[@DarkEdgeTVSurvival]

Thing is, I entirely agree. I would really love for the deserving creators like Garuga to get ALL of the profits from this, not the 50/50 cut (I do understand the hosting platforms/services argument) but the very frustrating reality is that people are much more likely to quickly spend $5 in an in-game app than they are finding entirely different websites and creating a new account for Patreon/KoFi. It's not right at all, but it's going to earn the creators more in the longrun.. even if it's still a smaller amount. I do know that Garuga is only exploring this route in order to offset the cost of making many more free dino mods 💕 Mind you I'm personally ONLY going to buy premiums I actually care for, so Garuga's and maayybbee any exceptional other creators. I don't have the money to squander on just anyone looking to make a quick buck, haha. You're right that the paid system does risk creating an unhealthy market - it's not much but I at the very least won't check those mods unless they actually deserve the attention.

[@tonybablony2041]

@@DarkEdgeTVSurvivalyea, like if the creators were just pseudo-employed and got paid a certain amount per creation from WC then great, but putting it on the people is just not going to work out I don’t think, but hey, maybe I’m wrong, folks pay for gun skins they don’t even see in 3rd person shooters so who can really say

Against unridden creatures when you've massively levelled into an ability that's going to do heavy damage regardless, and specifically only when it's not already engaged in combat. You don't get that for free and it's not going to make-or-break a fight regardless.

[@trainershade1937]

This thing is actually so sick, and also unexpected. I really like all the features it has, though just in general, it seems like ASA has greatly expanded what is possible for mods.
