I'm looking into getting this game this weekend for myself and my daughter to play. She's really into dinosaurs, and I enjoy MMOs occasionally. This seems like a good game where we can both work to build up a character together.

Anyone have any tips for me? Other than the obvious survival gameplay, what should I be expecting with this game?

Beware of the DONG!

Seriously you start naked with your dick swinging, I sure there is an option to turn it off though.

FWIW despite being in Early Access and therefore not finished, the Devs have already started releasing pic DLC.

I don't support that type of business practice, so I removed it from my Wishlisht. You do you though.

I played it once and quit, the UI looked terrible. Looked like a 5th grader designed it.

I've played, and have some friends that play regularly.

It's like what I assume is minecraft with dinosaurs and better graphics.

You start naked, have to find a way to make fire or risk freezing to death...make clothes, shelter etc. Eventually you can tame dinosaurs and hunt with them. They will randomly destroy your forts if they aren't fortified good...other players will break in to your place and steal things.

It's not really an MMO...running in to people is pretty rare. When I joined my friends on their server, they were flying around on dinosaurs trying to find me to help me out...took like half an hour. The game is unforgiving to put it mildly. Many a lost corpses in the beginning.
