    How on earth is this studio still going after the atrocity that was the first game? Like… Who’s actually giving them money at this point?

      It’s that weird niche of taming and owning dinosaurs and base building and what not that no other game has really filled. I think that’s why they are still around. No one wants to make a new ARK game, because ARK has been around for so long. And the game is huge, it’s just a janky ass mess.

      Ark seems to fit into the same niche that enjoys Roblox, Fortnite, and Five Nights at Freddy’s. That might make a statement about how much money they have.
