Ever wanted to start a new ARK adventure but you didn't exactly know what to do?

Your exact thoughts were "Let's start fresh!... but perhaps I should add a lot of creature mods, or else it'll get boring fast. Nah, there's a lot of creatures in vanilla ARK already." or "Now that I'm level 15 let's go tame something! Could tame a pachy, get a parasaur or a raptor... but they all suck. Could get a trike, but I still have no base and I'm not taking it across the entire map. I don't wanna tame a carno, I always do that... but the rest of options are awful."?

Well. There's a few extremely good creature reworks mod out there already, so why did I make this one? Basically, there's things here and there in all of them that I don't like or don't convince me. Some reworks are too shallow or are too complex, and few of them think outside the box. Here I'm completely revamping some creatures and giving them very different niches than the ones they have in vanilla.

Another question you might have after trying the mod or reading the changes is, why so many of the creatures have had their damage or their movement speed increased? Well, I wanted ARK to be a more challenging experience. Now creatures will be more dangerous, both wild and tamed. As for the speed, so many of the creatures are absolutely outclassed by DLC creatures like wyverns, managarmrs or shadowmanes in terms of travelling abilities that they're not even an option compared to them. This mod was made for a mostly PvE, slightly more casual audience in mind. For those that cannot afford to spend 30 minutes running a Parasaur across a map as big as Genesis 2.

That being said, I hope you enjoy the mod, and if you have any questions please refer to the steam discussions, feel free to comment here in the steam page and absolutely join my discord for more updates!
