Hopefully we dont play as vin diesel. I want character creation
there is one reason why I wouldn't buy ARK2 and that's all the expansion packs ark1 has, I don't want to have to buy my game 6 times…
Ark 2 isn't a upcoming game at all 😂 it has no official release date and ark ascended isn't going to finished with dlc /map releases until Q4 2026 maybe even Q1 2027 so I wouldn't expect ARK 2 before mid 2026 at the earliest maybe even 2027
I have thousand of hours in Ark and am excited for Ark 2. But the game I really want, is Dune: Awakening
Lmao at the vin diesel “family”
Vin Diesel as a caveman is actually the only believable casting I’ve seen for him…but seriously, when are we gonna be done with that walking penis? 2:03
I have a feeling its largely because of the series X and its at this point limiting hardware. Hopefully this doesnt become another CB2077 release but… it very well could be.
Ark is most fun in the early levels when it is har and primitive.
I mean, you're going against giant dinosaurs. It should be more difficult.
The flying creatures are a bit of a cheat, and easy mode.
This doesn’t sound like Ark, sounds like someone who wants to use the concepts of Ark but put it into a souls-like with changed mechanics to make the game more engaging then OG Ark
Yes, and did you know casetlevania? The sympthony of the night was also a souls like 😉
Any vet of ark is used to delays from wildcard.
Do not trust Wild Card on ANYTHING
Idea for a video, what RPG do you think should win at the GAME AWARDS (though they are pretty irrelevant imo)
Good Work, but I hatte the TikTok Like subs at the beginning…
I think the game will be a disaster. So I'm inclined to give it the disasterlike tag instead of soulslike.
Ark really needs new devs im getting old just waiting on a new map on asa ark is becoming a joke i love the game but all the waiting for the new maps is getting annoying why does it take like 15 years for all the new maps to come out on a game
I see vin diesel i click away….
I gotta say that these videos on games that have been announced with literally NO NEW INFO are not in any way a good look, we don't need someone to summarize freaking trailers holy crap are you serious?
Just make some new Elden Ring build videos or something because commenting over trailers is pretty cringe and I hate it when I accidentally click on one of these videos, this is how you lose subs, do better.
It sounds like a verrry ambitious game for studio that still couldn't fix a snapping bug on ceiling/floors or add a straight basic staircase for years
i used to love ark survival but i dont trust them anymore specialy with their stupid system of earlky acess with dlc then releasing a remake idk they are being odd and sketchy
This game will probably come out in 2026. I'm still playing ARK Ascended. Playing the game on default settings is awful, but if you know how to play with the settings and download some mods it's incredible. Especially if you like dinos.
Look i think its obvious to anyone in the ark community is that ark 2 isnt coming. They lied about the free next gen update and instead charge everyone for each remastered map all over again. Which is slowing being drip fed over several years. They also announced that a new story map will be added to ark 1.5 which anyone who follows the story knows that it's ark 2's story so basically the second game is canceled and they will just keep adding story and make ark 1 bigger.
Ark 2 should be my most anticipated game of all time, considering how much i loved ark, and that its my most played game ever. But i have zero faith in these developers ever putting out anything good again. I honestly wouldnt even know where to start, trying to explain the shit they have done over the years.
I think it may translate closer to like dragons dogma maybe? Souls like does kinda get tossed around a lot, and I doubt there will be a checkpoint system beyond like bed spawn. Everything seems extremely vague
The thing to look out for most about the newest Ark is whether it will be just as buggy as the last one. The gameplay is fun, but the graphics and performance are horrendous and ruin the entire experience. It forces you to avoid playing certain aspects of the game entirely and just throwing it all away eventually.
So Conan with dinosaurs. Im interested.
This game is gonna be garbage
Is it even real should be the question
Ark 2 Is going to be a conan copy . And Jeremy the ceo said in the extra life event that there will be no tek it's going to be more primitive based
This game is definitely canceled at this point of time.
So you basically took every Ark person already knew, and compiled it in a very late, up-to-date, video. About a game we all know isnt even going to be seen until a few years from now, while boldly titling your vid as "Gameplay Preview".
GTFO
I'm just happy to see Fextralife make more videos. On another note, can anyone tell me the origin of the name Fextralife? What's the F?
I would love to see a photo mode in ark 2 if its only third person
09:48 This is BRASIL!!
They keep saying ark 2 wont release unless ascended does better. They got it wrong it wont release until snail games is out the picture and dev corruption is purged!
I play survival games for the immersion so the third person locked camera is a pretty big turn off for me.
Nah i dont live under a rock and i also dont play survival games 😂
At the end of the day, it's about how many hours you can sink into a single game to become an "alpha" if ark 2 goes to souls like, I literally see the whole community changing 😂 and it might be for the best
Yeah this may have convinced me not to play ark 2 despite being a huge fan of the first game. A lot of the changes seem unnecessary and counterproductive to the type of game ark is. Pretty much all info I've found on ark 2 so far has been a disappointment 🙃
People will 100% mod Vin Diesel to be Dominic in game
These guys keep getting in their own way. They remind me of the bad guy in Ready Player One. More worried about how to charge for things than game play.
Clickbait..
Idk why but why does it look like Horizon?
Clickbate, no gameplay shown. Don't watch.
Jajajjajaja
If ARK 2 doesn't have the mmo aspect for pvp I don't want it. unless it is solo only and they keep ARK Ascended official server's and continue to expand.
Ark 2, is as if fromsoft turned dark souls into a Mario game….
It’s gonna flop so hard
