Didn't think this one would grab me, but looking at the details has me kind of interested.....park management game but combined with Jurassic setting.  Probably too good to be true and will stink:)

The cynic in me cannot think anything beyond cashgrab.

I might be more open to the concept if they specifically didn't try to tie it to JP/JW metaverse.
Insert witty comment here.

I had a lot of fun with the JP: Operation Genesis, back in the day: the same idea but an older game, which this is effectively remaking. Fans continue to keep an update/patch/upgrade to the old game going on newer systems, too, but I just couldn't get back into it when I booted it up recently.

I have reasonable hopes for this. Even though Jeff Goldblum could hardly sound less excited when doing a promotion for his voice-acting work in it. ;)

Sounds boring.  I mean what could possible go wrong trying to manage a park full of man eating dinosaurs...   ::)

I am a tiny bit concerned it will be a reskin of Planet Coaster. Then again, that game is glorious!

Lol. Good one. On a more serious note not sure the game models that...the description attached to the game talks a lot about bio engineering dinosaurs which sounds pretty dull, but nothing about managing things when they escape and start killing people which.might not be dull depending how they did it.

I don't think given the.lilely genesis of the developers dinosaurs eating things is on the radar.

You may talk the talk and appear to be quite easy going to foster popularity, but to the MAN I say F*CK YOU." And Steve G is F******g rude ? Just another day on the BF forum ... one demented idiots reaction to BF disagreeing about the thickness of the armour on a Tiger II turret mantlet.

^RPS did NOT like it. Not enough transgender or LGBTQ identifying dinosaurs.

It's a shame though, was hoping it would turn out good....

It confuses me that the developer of Elite: Dangerous has become primarily a maker of theme park games. Bizarre.

I will get it eventually, I'm sure, because the dinos are supposedly very cool, and who doesn't like dinosaurs? But like you said, 60 clams!? No way.
