What Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunt Does Right

[@DigitalDreamsEntertainment]

Thank you for the video!

[@SaurianTarget]

Thanks for checking it out!

[@rubenceacontreras8882]

if you are the real Digital Dreams Entertainment, i want to take the oportunity to say, i think the Carnivoress: Dino Hunter is awesome game, y bought the pc version (2015) and it only takes 10.5 hours to complete the game (full equipment, licenses and achievements) i think you have a wonderfull game full, of pontential, you just have to add more dinosaurs, maps, and weapon, if you want to add a new game mode i will really apreciate it (like challenges) PD. i still play the old carnivores because have more dinosaurs and maps. PD2: i will buy a DLC with more content if you launch it

Another great video, I forgot that dinos were locked behind certain maps so being able to hunt all 6 on any map at any time of day alone makes it sound like a proper upgrade, especially with the improved AI.

[@smitty2593]

In addition to more dinosaurs (specifically carnivores) to hunt, more maps to hunt on, and more weapons to hunt with, I'd personally like to see the fog levels also get some rain, thunder, and lightning added to them. I think it would add even more atmosphere to those levels. Imagine hunting in the fog and rain in the Great Forest. Suddenly, in a flash of lightning, a T-Rex suddenly appears from the fog, charging at you, its terrifying roar accompanied by a loud boom of thunder! Panicked by fear, you raise your weapon to shoot, but it's too late! In one swift motion, it grabs you in its jaws and swallows you whole! So, in my opinion, I think rain, thunder, and lightning would make great additions to fog levels to increase the atmosphere and tension. What say you?

[@SaurianTarget]

I fully agree! I’m actually talking about that very idea in a wishlist video in a few days!

[@MinnesotaNiceGuys]

I haven't played Carnivores for 18 years! Definitely a childhood favorite. I didn't even know this version came out until last night when I was scrolling through the EShop on my Switch. Immediately bought it and started playing it. I definitely want to see more updates, but I love what's in it. Seeing a bigger roster of dinos! Also it'd be really cool to see mini dinos that you don't need a license for like the dimetrodon from carnivores 2. I'd also love to hear more ambient noise like in the original. I'd always get chills hears various dino roars off in the distance. Also an ice age dlc might be fun!

Until that day, i guess we have to make the best with the graphical quality the switch gives us, ngl i might just get dinosaur hunt on my ps4 aswell to see how it compares, as right now the switch version looks stunning, ans hell, i dont even have that much of a good tv hell nevermind a 4k ultra tv lol. i can only imagine how good the ps4 version looks!

[@sofwanlutfy4050]

Gonna have to disagree with most of the points: 1). 6-8 hours is a perfectly fine length for a $15 game that is Carnivores Dinosaur Hunter Reborn. You can unlock all dinosaurs and maps in Carnivores 1 in the same amount of time. 2). I don't know how the graphics is any better, it's like the devs just removed some filter and call it a day. Got rid of the advanced grass for some reason. Reborn honestly just looks much better. 3). Dinosaur hunting is objectively worse. Now carnivores locks onto you like a missile for some reason, herbivores aren't scared of carnivores, and instead of implementing a way for the carnivores and herbivores to just walk on top of rocks, the devs decided to make them just go through the rocks and even kill you out of reach. Also the AI still get stuck, and while sliding is removed, you have, in its place, turning at 2x speed, sometimes even awkwardly going in sideways. The POV of the hunter is way worse and you cannot adjust it this time. 4) Pro License shouldn't be an equipment, it should be a totally separate game mode that's unlocked after you beat the game. That way, the progression part of the game act as campaign while the "Pro License" act as sandbox mode. Making Pro License an equipment makes the game's structure looks very janky and confusing to new players (ofc the game is insanely janky anyway). Side note, as a future watcher, that progression point unfortunately didn't age well. Ahem ahem, the DLC. Reborn has a lot of problems yet Dinosaur Hunt fixes like 5% of it while adding even more problems.
