As someone who plays Monster Hunter World, I will say I'm just glad that it's recognized. The hunter himself however is less of a scientist and more of a population control, a balance keeper if you will. They do research and have to go through the process of discovering hints and clues about disturbances in the ecosystem, and learn more about the monsters that can be found in the world in order to make hunting them easier, but I wouldn't call them scientist in the same way I would call a paleontologist a scientist.
Yea we're more like a game warden for the actual scientists. Got a monster disrupting the ecosystem and needs to be put down? Call a Guild Hunter! Want to capture a monster for further study? Call a Guild Hunter!
1:04 there is a lore based reason to that, in-game the dinos have been genetically modified in ways that make them different than they would've actually looked, Helena says in her explorer notes that some of them seem altered compared to their irl counterparts
Something interesting about ARK is that the humans were so evolved that when they needed to add animal population to the ARKs they created their own version of species and even mythological creatures, so this is why they are not accurate at all, some of them are a mix of species and some are the species but genetic modified to be like what we see
Nice video I have couple games I have seen about dinosaurs. The Isle, Beast of Bermuda, Prehistoric Kingdom, and of course Turok Dinosaur Hunter. Was curious why in the past dinosaurs were depicted without feathers ?
Dinosaurs were depicted without feathers in the past because no preserved feather impressions had been discovered in the fossil record. Zoologists of the time gave them scaly skin because their preserved skeletons were more reptile-like in appearance.
@@southcoastinventors6583 yeah that was probably a factor too, like how a group of 1800s fossils hunters butchered an fossilised edmontosaurus skeleton that had preserved skin impressions. Buts it’s mainly just due to the rarity of fossilisation, the process tends to destroy a lot of the soft material (skin, organs etc) and only leaves hard parts (bones and teeth)
@@ausraptor9602 I guess similar reason why Jurassic Park will never actually exist, normal tissue even under the best storage conditions will never survive that long intact. Maybe new fossils deposits will be found when more of the Greenland ice pack melts.
You did get it right that ARK isn't trying to be accurate, because a paleobiologist character in the game notices that the creatures are genetically modified animals with the base genome being whatever animal they're representing
I have nothing to add or detract for viewer engagement. I just would like to say that some video quality drops during game capture and it feels like I am watching this in 2006. Other than that, another great episode, as always.
To be fair, the thing about Jurassic Park/World is that the dinosaurs are spliced with DNA of living animals which means they aren’t exactly dinosaurs they’re all pretty much genetic creations.
Thats because they had like 2 popular actually accurate dinosaur games they couldve used and they went with fuckin RDR2 and im still kind of salty abt it lol
Cmon you could've used Carnivores,Primal Carnage, Saurian, Path of Titans, Pangea Survival, The Isle, Turok,Dino Crisis, Prehistoric Kingdom, Beasts of Bermuda and you choose goddamn RDR2 for the last game!? You could've even gotten the chimera talk in Saurian by having him mention the debate about Dakotaraptor, good episode overall but like...seriously?
An interesting point is made I believe inadvertently there is no box with a picture to say if the puzzle is assembled correctly and alot of the complete-ish skeletons on display look structurally unsound like they physically would collapse under there own weight Palentoligy is not a science it's a series of educated guesses in the sense that no clear answer can be provided with out a living specimen to compare the assembly to not at saying these creatures didnt exist but we dont nore will we have clue about armor feathers scales one or two bones with some texture or cell flakes isnt significant proof of anything
Its about video games but the actually Dinosaur genre games were completely left out and instead stuffed with mainstream known video games... thats actually sad. I would've loved to see The Isle or Path of Titans in this video. The paleontologist seems pretty nice and I enjoy all the information but the choice of games was VERY weak if looking at dinosaurs.
Not too important but you said the Dodo was a dinosaur when it is not. Most likely a mistake on your behalf, but if not, The Dodo being a dinosaur means a Cassowary is too, but we’re fairly aware of the Cassowary’s standing as to whether it’s a flightless bird or a prehistoric bird-reptile
Birds are dinosaurs, birds evolved directly from theropod dinosaurs. Dodos are flightless relatives of pigeons, cassowary’s are from a lineage of once flying birds that evolved to become flightless. Dodos and cassowaries are not closely related but they are both birds and therefore are both dinosaurs.
@@ausraptor9602 Birds are not dinosaur’s Dinosaur’s are the name of the reptillian-avian and somewhat mammalian in some senses crossed species alive in the Mesozoic period (Triassic, Jurrasic, and Cretaceous) Birds are not descendant’s of dinosaurs, birds were alive when dinosaurs were, same as how the great white shark wasn’t a descendant of the megalodon , and how us human’s are not descendants of dryomomys. How do you even make that mistake? Birds Dinosaurs They are entirely different classifications of species in the animal kingdom. That’s like calling whale’s fish, and the fact more people liked your comment over mine is pathetic, in an age of limitless information at our fingertips how can people yield such stupidity
@@ausraptor9602 Your entire comment is based off of one little lie you were told when you were younger “The T rex evolved to become the chicken” or something, isn’t it. And no the pigeon is not a relative of the Dodo, it’s a specific pigeon that is a relative, and it’s a tropical bird found on islands, nothing like the other pigeon species we have. Cassowaries likely evolved from the first bird species (That appeared in the Jurassic period, let me stress again that birds are not dinosaurs) and yes would have flown at one point in their existence on earth, but how is that relevant? I know there are some articles online saying that theropods are the ancestors of modern avian species but please be careful with what you see online because if you read through those articles you’ll see the title is just attention grabbing.
@@TechnoCNB Bro birds are dinosaurs, this isn’t the 90s anymore read a peer reviewed scientific journal article. Birds evolved not from tyrannosaurs but are more related to dromosaurs but the relation is still quite far off, but birds are nevertheless still taxonomically dinosaurs. Don’t spread misinformation with your F- biology knowledge. Birds are descended directly from dinosaurs which makes them well, dinosaurs or avian dinosaurs if you want to be more specific. Also this knowledge isn’t just made up from internet articles I’m literally being taught this by my university lecturers in my major of palaeontology.
Lemme explain it to you: Dinosauria is a clade. A clade in biology means that every animal which evolved from a certain animal or any of it’s descendants is part of that group. Birds, such as the cassowary or dodo, all descended from animals such as archaeopteryx (likely not archaeopteryx itself, but close relatives of archaeopteryx). The thing is that archaeopteryx and it’s relatives were maniraptors, which is a group of dinosaurs. So, since birds descended from dinosaurs, that means that they themselves are dinosaurs.

Ah, a fellow hunter, I see.
@@ShukakuTheCrazy1 Haven't been in the field lately, but I definitely still hold the title.

Helena fucked up the arks system, in a good way
i'd love more remote interviews if it means more diverse experts reacting. i don't mind the video/audio quality drops at all :)
I love how he doesn't talk about the custom character creation and the wholesome screaming of the people getting attacked by the whale.
LETS GOOOOOO MORE OF HIM AND ARK SURVIVAL EVOLVED, JURASSIC WORLD EVOLUTION 2!!
Disagreed

@@ausraptor9602 Is part of the reason due to crude extraction of the fossils ? Thanks for the response.

hey it is dr. james napoli, postdoctoral researcher at the north carolina museum of natural sciences in north carolina state university
Awesome ranking and and seeing and getting to know him is nice withe these expert ranKing videos on gameology
He's gotta do Fossil Fighters next
They fail on showing also games like the isle which is a must experience if you love Dino’s
This guy is really good, he should start a channel with four other paleontologists where they review the dinosaurs the jwe2
Finally they had him react to Jurassic world evolution 2
Yall didnt even show em "The Isle" which would be litterly stuff he knows and study's one of the best Dino sims there is.
Here my buddy gonna include “The Isle” but not “Path of titans”.
"Nice to see them here too😊" about the Dodo, getting punched in the head repeatedly lmaoooo
Please do parkour experts react to Prince of Persia 2008.
pk experts react to prince of persia in general!
What’s the difference between a prehistoric reptile and a dinosaur?
Didnt even show him the Anjanath Come on guys! In each of these theres a very specific and obvious thing to show that you completely skip over!
He already had a reaction to Monster Hunter World monsters on this channel and that included Anjanath
Hope he reacts to Prehistoric Kingdom
Can this guy react to more Ark dinosaurs cuz there's over 100 dinosaurs to react to
You did get it right that ARK isn't trying to be accurate, because a paleobiologist character in the game notices that the creatures are genetically modified animals with the base genome being whatever animal they're representing
MAKE HIM SEE PREHISTORIC KINGDOM
I have nothing to add or detract for viewer engagement. I just would like to say that some video quality drops during game capture and it feels like I am watching this in 2006. Other than that, another great episode, as always.
Looked fine on my screen
The sceleton crew vidios are just down right superior, so go ceek them out.
To be fair, the thing about Jurassic Park/World is that the dinosaurs are spliced with DNA of living animals which means they aren’t exactly dinosaurs they’re all pretty much genetic creations.
The prologue shits all over that excuse
so no paleontology games actually got S tier for being a paleontology game but the cowboy game did lmfao
Of course Rockstar games would put that much detail into it W
Thats because they had like 2 popular actually accurate dinosaur games they couldve used and they went with fuckin RDR2 and im still kind of salty abt it lol
"he is sedeting them "... at times 😅? hahaha, when they ask for one alive? 😅😅😅
Cmon you could've used Carnivores,Primal Carnage, Saurian, Path of Titans, Pangea Survival, The Isle, Turok,Dino Crisis, Prehistoric Kingdom, Beasts of Bermuda and you choose goddamn RDR2 for the last game!?
You could've even gotten the chimera talk in Saurian by having him mention the debate about Dakotaraptor, good episode overall but like...seriously?
...Was hoping to see another MH game....why no Rise/Sunbreak? :c
No Prehistoric Kingdom ?
sad 😞
Yeah we sedate the monsters for studies… (lowers great sword)
It's the shame that english not my mother language so i don't really know what he say but i still enjoy it somehow 😅😅
mfw great jagras eating a kestadon whole and expanding its stomach tenfold isn't a realistic depiction of dinosaurs D:
This might be a bad idea but someone reacting to gameplay from The Isle (Evirma or Legacy (either one is fine with me))
Ehm you missed one of the most realistc one? Prehistoric Kingdom
You should do goat farmer reacts to goat simulator
I LOVE THIS YT CHANNEL

Ark 2 coming out soon
what abt the isle
👀
👍 NICE
Why is monster hunter in here. Every monster except elderdragons are wyverns. Sure there are brute wyverns and bird wyverns but still.
