Hey Metta! Jorichi here (Pachy 🖤), I enjoyed that fight so much! Hahahaha had a really good time meeting you ! Hope to find each other again at The Isle 😎👌 I love your videos and trully amazed to be in one, amazing footage And I loved the coments, thanks for the love to my noobie skills 🙈🖤
It’s easy to see why few people play herbivore. Herbivores are pretty much locked to 3 small patches of the map, if they want to freely explore elsewhere they will be punished with big diet debuffs, so they are hardhanded in to pingponging between 3 hotspots where they will be jumped by carno and raptor megapacks. Their location is pretty much doxxed to all the carnivores on the map which already outnumber them. Meanwhile carnivores can find AI to eat at pretty much any corner of the map. Thats one of the main reasons why I stopped playing the Isle in general, even though i played pretty much 50/50 on the factions, the devs clearly favor one sidr. I like to explore, when the game punishes me for moving away from hotspots it loses all enjoyment. It doesn’t help that carnivores also get the most niche diversity, herbivores get jack shit as far as niche diversity goes, carnivores get to swim, climb and fly.
Yeah, herbivores have always had it meh. At least patrols do allow for much more exploration for herbivore players. You can pretty well go anywhere, wait about 10-20 minutes, and a patrol will spawn nearby. No more migration zone hotspot when you don't want to be there, at least as long as patrols exist in their current format
@@Patrick3183 edible plants should actually spawn in the biome they are listed with, not in tiny acre sized lots. The diet system for herbivores is not immersive at all because plants do not grow in tiny localized areas like this, they are spread around by the herbivores themselves through seed dispersal. This whole diet system was designed to cater to carnivore players only, to push herbivores in to easy-to-find spots so packs can hunt them at their leisure. If the devs really cared about immersion, edible plants WOULD be spread everywhere, I had made an in-depth suggestion about herbivore diet improvements in the official discord before i was banned because one of the moderators there had personal problems with me (very corrupt staff), the google doc might still be there. Pointless though, the devs aren’t interested in improving herbivore gameplay when they can just keep catering to the carnivores
@@AgentMercer seriously, it's so unrealistic that the plants are all growing in one place at a time. This was way better handled at the old map Spiro, where you had to travel across the entire map to get perfect diet since the plants only grew in their specific places.
@@July-nj5sn i would travel a lot on the old map and at the same time, it was still lenient enough to let me nest with my friends without being punished, and it allowed me to nest in hidden areas that weren’t advertised to every carnivore on the map. I couldn’t even bother nesting on gateway, especially with Herrera out now
Herbs need a quicker grow time and a herd system because the majority of herbivores have always been herd animals and the carnivores always follow those herds.
@@user-gc3hy3xr5wmake them grow faster and get a stamina boodt if in herds, while carnivours get to grow slower when in packs and drain more stamina when there are too many around of the same species. That would encourage herbis to get together and Carnis to split into smaller groups. All those things could also apply to different stages of growth. Like a carnopair can have up to 2 babys without problem but once they become subadult the staminadrain kicks in.

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoy watching my content! I do my best! Hopefully someday the isle will be in a good enough place that it'll be worth revisiting for you!
I noticed you like purple ish skins lol funny because I use basically the same color scheme except straight black instead of purple. Then like a taupe color for the male displays. (Like legacy’s greyish color for all carnivores)
@@dinometta I have the same feeling lol Idk how my color scheme became so basic as I played legacy more and more because I remember making a white allo and even a blue and brown carno lol, I just remember playing cera a lot and making it black and white and I guess because I ended up playing it the most the skin pattern stuck too lol (I always used a black cera whenever I played it usually)
My worst nightmares by far are blindingly dense foliage near cliffs and drinking at riverbanks (because of deinosuchus). Honourable mention to flying at night as a pteranodon back when night was absolutely pitch black and the night vision range meant I couldn't see the ground to know my altitude, and might not see trees or cliffs until it was too late to react. It was like flying through an endless void only to get clotheslined out of nowhere by Treebeard.
@@SN-of5tu Thank you! That's one of the things I love about The Isle! That human element that makes every day a different situation and lends so much variety to the gameplay!
👏👏👏👏👏 your engagements are always so fun to watch cause you are actually cognitive of what you are capable of and know when to cut your losses and disengage. I watch SO many people even high profile "veterans" die because they just dont know how/when to disengage or run away
So I don't know if you know this, but in the latest patch you can force a patrol zone to spawn. if you find a patrol zone you like (I like the dibble one at swamps) you can sit JUST outside of the area it used to be when it moves, and it will re-roll your preferred PZ every ten seconds or so. I tested this out on officials last night, and you can sit outside the zone for about 10 mins(feels like a long time but in Isle minutes that's nothing) and there will be a very good chance of it re-moving back to the area you are next to. if it doesn't work after that ten mins, move back further (you're probably still inside the old zone) and try again. I coasted to full grown in just under three hours (after having a particularly foodless adolescence). hope this helps!
I didn't know that it would reroll! I got one in swamp that I hated as teno(because melons) and I had to run to south and relog entirely to get that dang patrol to finally change!
@@dinometta I noticed it while playing with my buddy, if one of you can smell diets but the other can't, it's a minor desync, after about five minutes their PZ will change and yours will move to where they are, and that's when I forced the re=roll by sitting outside the zone (I found the edge with his help) I am thinking another way to do it is to travel around the edge of the old PZ in a zigzag fashion, forcing the game to acknowledge you are in one and then out of one so reroll to tell you where the closest one is every time you pop out of it again, but I haven't tried that method yet. so far, time and distance work best. here's to hoping the devs fix migrations!!!
In unofficial servers there are a lot of Herbie's, in fact, if u don't have a massive carni pack is almost impossible for u to hunt a pack of Herbie's on hot spots, but on certain zones there are players that doesn't play with their entire family and u can hunt so it's not that bad, u can still play solo perfectly
I enjoy playing on Petits myself. Though sometimes the massive herds of herbivores get annoying since there's too many and the carnivores don't bother even trying. Honestly in this case, I was hoping to run into a pack of carnos once I reached full grown. I wanted to see how chaotic the fight would be. Unfortunately for me, I got a pack of ceratos instead haha
@@dinometta ye I play on petits as well and I try to check for eggs so I can get a pack easily and then be able to hunt something cuz yeah, they don't risk too much, once I had a family of troodons on the canyon and from the 20 of us, just 3 and me were attacking the dibles that were coming through, anyways it depends, usually on unofficial ppl play like an rpg, kinda like Path of Titans xD
I was one of the dilos. took me some fights to understand that the dilos clones was wierd and sometimes they did not work at all at that moment of the horde test. ggs tho! Acro landed some nasty kicks at the beggining of the fight so i was rly low :)
Yeah, I think the only clones that I saw the entire fight were the two that flew over my head and vanished into the void xD Acro is a deadly teno player. Kid could probably confidently fight three carnos as an adult teno and come out on top. I know he punted one of the two of you off that waterfall cliff he jumped down to, which one was that xD
@@dinometta It took me some time to realize that i was that dilo in the video lol, I played dilo so often during the horde test so i dont rly remember how i died but now when u said it i think he kicked me down the cliff or something xD I was the green one and the other one was a random player i just met moments before the fight 🤣
Why are their so few herbivore players? My guess would be just about every private server banning herbis who don't just lay down and die when a hungry carnivore spots them.
@@Oeslian I hate the forced "peaceful herbivore" rules. Like man, if someone is in my stomping grounds just lurking and I feel like they are waiting for their buddies to show up or that they might eventually attack, I'm going to attack first!
@@dinometta If the moderators left their PC long enough to turn on a nature documentary they would see herbivores acting more aggressive than the carnivores when they have mates and babies around.
@@tentardigrades968 yep, many servers labeling themselves as “semi realism” will only allow herbivores to fight if the carnivore attacks first, meaning you are literally just forced to watch a pack of raptors get themselves ready and organized to 5v1 you. Many of these servers also make it so herbivores cant even kill the attacking carnivores if the carnivore runs away or 4 calls. You also cant continue fighting the carnivores if they kill one of your group mates, so for example if you are defending your hatchlings and the carnivores kill one, you are forced to just walk away and they can follow you until theyre hungry again. Most carnivores are also faster than most herbivores, a pack of carnivores will keep on your ass because they can just follow your tracks while moving. Additionally, it is even against the rules for carnivores to get attacked by other carnivores if they are sitting next to a body
I love playing herbivores so much, I like being chased and the bonding with other herbi players just feels so much sweeter and more intense than carnivore packs, because we protect each other
@@ixotica5940 herbivore life can be so enjoyable! I do generally prefer very small herd of solo gameplay because I enjoy the chaos. But sometimes just existing with a herd is so nice
the belittling of the little raptor made me feel quite good, because as a player who never grows, I like it when herbies aren't entirely kill on sight.
@@MadMax-nl8hg I never enjoy killing babies, especially as a herbivore. There's just no point, especially when they're honestly not a threat to me at all
Fun fact when you buck raptors and troodons you have a 1/3 chance for them to get off after every stamina drain and sometimes they will plop right infront of your face if you attack with your face or behind you if you’re something like a stego
Amazing video Metta!! I joined originally because I was a teno on a video. It's rare af to see people play it again, but I REALLY appreciate your game sense. The decisions made during this video were as perfect as possible, it just sucks zones are broken. I'm sure there'd be a million diablos otherwise, just like before.
holy shit this video format has me fired up. this was super gripping and inspirational. fuck making music, this looks way more fun...I think you've just inadvertently created another Isle channel lmfao
It was fun watching. You should be given an award for surviving so many challenges. It was nice of the dibble babies to reciprocate when you were under attack and I was glad your pachy friend survived. Sorry for the outcome at the end, but I know there will be new adventures 😀
My first video of yours. I really like this style of game. Nice to see some herbivore action. Nice voice for a content creator. Good game play and well narrated. I think I'll check out some more of your videos. Good job, have a subscription.
I've caught a few videos of the Isle before, but haven't quite dove in yet. But, damn, this was just, a really nice smooth, pleasent video to watch. Thank you~
The greatest appeal of playing herbs in older Dino sims was the fact food was easy to find, The Isle basically shot this dead with the diet system which was a TERRIBLE idea...
Honestly the food isn't usually too hard as a herbivore. Diets are a pain, but the food itself is plentiful. I await the diet system overhaul with bated breath
I've only recently started playing this game and have been attempting to play Pterodon and Diabloceratops. I was kind of surprised that there wasn't that many herbivore players and found myself surrounded by hordes of raptor, herras and other fast, agile predators. Since I'm still new I often die to much more experienced players, and it is particularily frustrating to die to a horde of raptors just spawncamping your preferred areas... Your video is amazing, though. It reminded me why I'd like to play an herbivore; the need for skill and risk assesment, and the cameradie with other herbis. I particularily like your attitude towards letting enemies go, even if they previously had tried to kill and eat you. I feel a bit more motivated to attempt to grow my Diablo now!
@@yoseiisindahouse I'm glad! Hope you have luck with your growth! I recommend getting to sanctuary, grabbing reabsorption as your first mutation, then finding a remote patrol and hanging out there until you've grown to a minimum of 1.5 tons!
This was outright enthralling. I've never watched you before, never heard of this game before but it reminds me so much of a game I used to play on roblox as a kid, Era of Terror, which I Adored and has since fallen apart. Your narration was incredible, I'm definitely going to watch more of your stuff and I've wishlisted the game on steam. I loved this
@@danabinghammclaughlin919 Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed the video! It's an incredible game once you get into it properly! There's a lot to learn as a new player, but it is something else
I just found this video and I think I just found my new favorite gaming content! This was awesome, I suck at these games so it’s nice to be able to watch someone be able to make progress and know what they’re doing. Love the content so far, thanks for the vid. I hope you have a wonderful day!

best video's of the isle i saw so far!!!!!....and i got +3k play hours!!! how you play and 'tell' the story is awsome!! did not play teno alot but maybe i should play and get better at it :-)
@@Dannydams121 Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed watching! Teno is honestly so fun, I highly recommend learning how to play it. It's one of the higher skill floor playables imo
@@dinometta yup..i know..always played on keyboard but i should get me a controller.....i guess it's easier to control all the things you do in fears combat :-)
Just found your stuff, don't have the Isle, but I love watching it. Your description of "Horse Rat" for the Tenontosaurus was so freakin' funny but so apt. I think you helped me find a new favorite herbivorous dino! Keep up the fantastic work and keep dishing out them tail smacks to the carnos. :)
"Why are there so few herbivore players in The Isle?" Players want to the power trip of being the "apex predator biggest hunter alpha graahhhh" simple.
@@trik6979 Indeed. That and honestly, there's not much for herbivore players to do. Migrations have been broken, so much of life is spent desperately seeking diets in obscure corners of the map. No one finds each other, so the only other thing herbivores do, nesting, doesn't happen. So they wander around, alone and bored, until either they go crazy and get aggressive or they get spotted by a large group of ceratos and die. Herbivores simply need more objectives and fun things to do as wandering around peacefully grazing gets boring very quickly
@@dinometta couldnt agree more, specially being a herbi main that doesnt enjoy the carebear body guard hyper aggro playstyle that dibbles/stegos partake in
Very fun video, I loved your presentation and music, you make the game seem very fun and i also like the context you gave of different dino personalities. i may have to give this game a shot
From my experience, a lot of herbivore are playing early in the day, to avoid the lag & unnecessary fights whilst they grow. I've encountered herds of pachys, stegos, dibbles, gallis and many more that I would normally not see at night. Last weekend when I was playing Deino at the Highlands Lake I've seen a herd of 9 Tenos, which I haven't seen in a looooong time, after the release of Dibble During evenings I'm also responsible for the diminishing herbivore population cause I would play Solo Herra and chill in groups of 7-8 at South Plains. Also use comms when playing Deino, Carnos & Ceras
See that's interesting, I usually play during those earlier hours myself. That's when my kids are at school so I have more freedom with my schedule during that time. I must just end up far from where most of them hang out or something!
Herbivore gameplay really can be incredibly rewarding. I definitely prefer duo or solo though, rather than large herds! It does suck sometimes though, when you get completely outnumbered and all you can really do is find an out to flee!
Just a suggestion but, i feel like its better to use more nature like and tribal music for this kind of narratios, at list i feel more immerse that way.
Fair enough. I do my best to find as much of those as I can, but the options on Uppbeat that suit what I'm looking for are pretty limited. I don't like reusing the same track too often as I feel like they grow stale if someone is watching multiple videos in a row
not many youtubers draw me in with the story's and footage. But dang i had to put my phone away to continue watching this and i don't regret it. I loved this so much no boring stuff at all kept me drawn in
Yup, it contains all of a herbivore's diets in one place. There's a nice little set of icons on your scent bar that looks like marching footprints. When they fill completely and move to encompass your full scent bar, then you're within the zone. At that point you just have to wander the zone and sniff until you find the plants
This was the most exciting video of Isle I have seen in a long time! :D I have basically abandoned Isle for Path of Titans, but you explaining and showing it like this makes it look much more fun than I thought. I'll have to check your other videos too.
I'm glad you enjoyed it! I love these moments of chaos in game, they're what keep me coming back over and over again. That fine line between life and death is just awesome
I can't believe I watched a 25 min documentary on the life of a growing herbivore dinosaur and enjoyed every second. I didn't know this game, look interesting, thank you for the video!
Loved the vid, damn right I'am subing!!! That was great! That Pachy was a diamond can't wait to see what else you get up to. Have fun and I'll have fun watching! Er... You know what I mean, LOL!
I honestly love patrols for this. All the food spawns in a very small area and when you're solo you can hang out there for a good long time. I've always enjoyed claiming a little stomping ground territory, so it suits my solo mindset very nicely!
This reminds me so much of when I saw an animal documentary about Kangaroos defense strategies. The documentarian had framed the film in a way to make out that the Kangaroo was a terrifying killer because they have developed a very specific strategy where if they are in a body of water when attacked by a wild dog they will push the dog under the water in an attempt to drown the threat against them. I was happy to see that most people did not fall for the framing of the film and recognized the Kangaroo was completely justified in defending themselves. Herbivores rule, predators drool.
Just got the game after waiting years and I always refuse to watch anyone or anything till I get a game I want welp you were the first after going on blind lol now I'm starting to get addicted great video

Honestly in this case, I was hoping to run into a pack of carnos once I reached full grown. I wanted to see how chaotic the fight would be. Unfortunately for me, I got a pack of ceratos instead haha
@@dinometta ye I play on petits as well and I try to check for eggs so I can get a pack easily and then be able to hunt something cuz yeah, they don't risk too much, once I had a family of troodons on the canyon and from the 20 of us, just 3 and me were attacking the dibles that were coming through, anyways it depends, usually on unofficial ppl play like an rpg, kinda like Path of Titans xD
I was one of the dilos. took me some fights to understand that the dilos clones was wierd and sometimes they did not work at all at that moment of the horde test. ggs tho! Acro landed some nasty kicks at the beggining of the fight so i was rly low :)
Yeah, I think the only clones that I saw the entire fight were the two that flew over my head and vanished into the void xD Acro is a deadly teno player. Kid could probably confidently fight three carnos as an adult teno and come out on top. I know he punted one of the two of you off that waterfall cliff he jumped down to, which one was that xD
@@dinometta It took me some time to realize that i was that dilo in the video lol, I played dilo so often during the horde test so i dont rly remember how i died but now when u said it i think he kicked me down the cliff or something xD I was the green one and the other one was a random player i just met moments before the fight 🤣
@@berserkir453 lmao you should have heard him giggling when you flew off the cliff xD
@@dinometta lmao I don’t blame him for laughing at me falling because I would too if i was him 🤣🤣
Why are their so few herbivore players? My guess would be just about every private server banning herbis who don't just lay down and die when a hungry carnivore spots them.
@@Oeslian I hate the forced "peaceful herbivore" rules. Like man, if someone is in my stomping grounds just lurking and I feel like they are waiting for their buddies to show up or that they might eventually attack, I'm going to attack first!
@@dinometta If the moderators left their PC long enough to turn on a nature documentary they would see herbivores acting more aggressive than the carnivores when they have mates and babies around.
I am considering this game and would prefer to play herbivore. People actually do that? What the HELL?!
@@tentardigrades968 yep, many servers labeling themselves as “semi realism” will only allow herbivores to fight if the carnivore attacks first, meaning you are literally just forced to watch a pack of raptors get themselves ready and organized to 5v1 you. Many of these servers also make it so herbivores cant even kill the attacking carnivores if the carnivore runs away or 4 calls. You also cant continue fighting the carnivores if they kill one of your group mates, so for example if you are defending your hatchlings and the carnivores kill one, you are forced to just walk away and they can follow you until theyre hungry again. Most carnivores are also faster than most herbivores, a pack of carnivores will keep on your ass because they can just follow your tracks while moving. Additionally, it is even against the rules for carnivores to get attacked by other carnivores if they are sitting next to a body
The first their is there btw
I love playing herbivores so much, I like being chased and the bonding with other herbi players just feels so much sweeter and more intense than carnivore packs, because we protect each other
@@ixotica5940 herbivore life can be so enjoyable! I do generally prefer very small herd of solo gameplay because I enjoy the chaos. But sometimes just existing with a herd is so nice
the belittling of the little raptor made me feel quite good, because as a player who never grows, I like it when herbies aren't entirely kill on sight.
...maybe I'll try dibble... they're kinda cute as babies
@@MadMax-nl8hg I never enjoy killing babies, especially as a herbivore. There's just no point, especially when they're honestly not a threat to me at all
@@dinometta that's very kind of you
Fun fact when you buck raptors and troodons you have a 1/3 chance for them to get off after every stamina drain and sometimes they will plop right infront of your face if you attack with your face or behind you if you’re something like a stego
Yeah, I'm not sure how much I like that change, but it is certainly fun to punt a raptor in the face when it falls off!
@@dinometta they decided to give the Dino they hate the most in evirma a buff and just looked at raptor and said you’re as strong as beipi now
@Tabsgod1919 pretty much! Poor raptors!
the isle player what they want : more dinosaurs
developers:new bugs and zones :)
@@Lariji unfortunately x]
We want better optimizations more then dinosaurs so people with 3070ti can run the game near 85fps instead of 45 the fps advantage/disadvantage hurts
Yes, I'll gladly take better optimization over dinosaurs. If the optimization is garbage, then people can't play the game.

Amazing video Metta!! I joined originally because I was a teno on a video. It's rare af to see people play it again, but I REALLY appreciate your game sense. The decisions made during this video were as perfect as possible, it just sucks zones are broken. I'm sure there'd be a million diablos otherwise, just like before.
Thank you! I'm glad you've stuck around! I really enjoy teno honestly, I just don't play it as often as I should!
holy shit this video format has me fired up. this was super gripping and inspirational. fuck making music, this looks way more fun...I think you've just inadvertently created another Isle channel lmfao
Lol hey, the more the merrier! Love me some isle content!
Pachys can be assholes... but chads at the same time.
A true hero!
The best hero!
It was fun watching. You should be given an award for surviving so many challenges. It was nice of the dibble babies to reciprocate when you were under attack and I was glad your pachy friend survived. Sorry for the outcome at the end, but I know there will be new adventures 😀
Lol, my teno is a survivor, I'll give her that! But yeah, at least the pachy got away in the end!
This was really fun! I usually am not a big fan The Isle let's plays because they get boring, but your voice over was really amazing. Keep it up!

@@Zelkin764 Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
This video has genuinely convinced me to try Teno which I had never tried before. And it already seems to be my new favorite herb. So thank you!
@@Kawfman good luck! Teno is one of my favorites! So much fun
The greatest appeal of playing herbs in older Dino sims was the fact food was easy to find, The Isle basically shot this dead with the diet system which was a TERRIBLE idea...
Honestly the food isn't usually too hard as a herbivore. Diets are a pain, but the food itself is plentiful. I await the diet system overhaul with bated breath
I've only recently started playing this game and have been attempting to play Pterodon and Diabloceratops. I was kind of surprised that there wasn't that many herbivore players and found myself surrounded by hordes of raptor, herras and other fast, agile predators. Since I'm still new I often die to much more experienced players, and it is particularily frustrating to die to a horde of raptors just spawncamping your preferred areas...
Your video is amazing, though. It reminded me why I'd like to play an herbivore; the need for skill and risk assesment, and the cameradie with other herbis. I particularily like your attitude towards letting enemies go, even if they previously had tried to kill and eat you. I feel a bit more motivated to attempt to grow my Diablo now!
@@yoseiisindahouse I'm glad! Hope you have luck with your growth! I recommend getting to sanctuary, grabbing reabsorption as your first mutation, then finding a remote patrol and hanging out there until you've grown to a minimum of 1.5 tons!
This was outright enthralling. I've never watched you before, never heard of this game before but it reminds me so much of a game I used to play on roblox as a kid, Era of Terror, which I Adored and has since fallen apart. Your narration was incredible, I'm definitely going to watch more of your stuff and I've wishlisted the game on steam. I loved this
@@danabinghammclaughlin919 Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed the video! It's an incredible game once you get into it properly! There's a lot to learn as a new player, but it is something else

"Why are there so few herbivore players in The Isle?"
Players want to the power trip of being the "apex predator biggest hunter alpha graahhhh" simple.
@@trik6979 Indeed. That and honestly, there's not much for herbivore players to do. Migrations have been broken, so much of life is spent desperately seeking diets in obscure corners of the map. No one finds each other, so the only other thing herbivores do, nesting, doesn't happen. So they wander around, alone and bored, until either they go crazy and get aggressive or they get spotted by a large group of ceratos and die. Herbivores simply need more objectives and fun things to do as wandering around peacefully grazing gets boring very quickly
@@dinometta couldnt agree more, specially being a herbi main that doesnt enjoy the carebear body guard hyper aggro playstyle that dibbles/stegos partake in
The devs cater to the “rawr xd” jurassic park raptor/rex simps, Dondi is one himself
@@dinometta yes all of that!
Very fun video, I loved your presentation and music, you make the game seem very fun and i also like the context you gave of different dino personalities. i may have to give this game a shot
@@TheZombieNinjaPirate It's a good one, but very rough starting out as a new player!
15:23 Tenno Prime:JUDGMENT
Lmao 🤣
CRRRUSH
It was OwlTime who got me sucked into the world of dino survival games, but I love this play by play commentary too! Fun and educational!
Owltime is fantastic!
From my experience, a lot of herbivore are playing early in the day, to avoid the lag & unnecessary fights whilst they grow. I've encountered herds of pachys, stegos, dibbles, gallis and many more that I would normally not see at night. Last weekend when I was playing Deino at the Highlands Lake I've seen a herd of 9 Tenos, which I haven't seen in a looooong time, after the release of Dibble
During evenings I'm also responsible for the diminishing herbivore population cause I would play Solo Herra and chill in groups of 7-8 at South Plains. Also use comms when playing Deino, Carnos & Ceras
See that's interesting, I usually play during those earlier hours myself. That's when my kids are at school so I have more freedom with my schedule during that time. I must just end up far from where most of them hang out or something!
@@dinometta Well, I'm playing from EU and only the Weekends allow me to play so early in the morning.
Playing on South & West 80% of the time.
i love the narration style, so fun
Thank you!
Im starting the video now, Metta. Ill possibly forget to comment later on, so here you have one. For the glory of rathorse and the youtube algo.
Enjoy! For the glory of the rathorse!
Love the Video and the conversation with your Pachy friend, Herbs are a lot of fun even though out numbered on servers
Herbivore gameplay really can be incredibly rewarding. I definitely prefer duo or solo though, rather than large herds! It does suck sometimes though, when you get completely outnumbered and all you can really do is find an out to flee!

Thank you! And welcome to the channel! I hope you enjoy your stay!
Just a suggestion but, i feel like its better to use more nature like and tribal music for this kind of narratios, at list i feel more immerse that way.
Fair enough. I do my best to find as much of those as I can, but the options on Uppbeat that suit what I'm looking for are pretty limited. I don't like reusing the same track too often as I feel like they grow stale if someone is watching multiple videos in a row
not many youtubers draw me in with the story's and footage. But dang i had to put my phone away to continue watching this and i don't regret it. I loved this so much no boring stuff at all kept me drawn in

@@belalalalal363 I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
Im sorry but what is migration zone and its purpose? And where is it usually located
To make u move around the map. It spawns randomly here and there. It’s the footprints in the scent bar
@@Patrick3183 so its a bunch of diet located at the same spot? How do u know where it is and when to move?
Yup, it contains all of a herbivore's diets in one place. There's a nice little set of icons on your scent bar that looks like marching footprints. When they fill completely and move to encompass your full scent bar, then you're within the zone. At that point you just have to wander the zone and sniff until you find the plants
@@dinometta so as carnivore we should go to the migration zone as well to hunt the herbs?
@@gojonissan5567 yes, that's correct.
This was the most exciting video of Isle I have seen in a long time! :D I have basically abandoned Isle for Path of Titans, but you explaining and showing it like this makes it look much more fun than I thought. I'll have to check your other videos too.

It's cool to see herbivores do things like claiming a small grove and hanging out there instead of constantly wandering the map.
I honestly love patrols for this. All the food spawns in a very small area and when you're solo you can hang out there for a good long time. I've always enjoyed claiming a little stomping ground territory, so it suits my solo mindset very nicely!
ooooh so thats waht patrol zones are for, thats amazing
@@GalacticSheep03 They're fantastic! Highly recommend utilizing then to their fullest!
@@dinometta thats a game changer
This reminds me so much of when I saw an animal documentary about Kangaroos defense strategies. The documentarian had framed the film in a way to make out that the Kangaroo was a terrifying killer because they have developed a very specific strategy where if they are in a body of water when attacked by a wild dog they will push the dog under the water in an attempt to drown the threat against them.
I was happy to see that most people did not fall for the framing of the film and recognized the Kangaroo was completely justified in defending themselves. Herbivores rule, predators drool.
