"One of the most poorly optimised games I have ever laid eyes upon still filled with bugs too. A true shame corporate greed has brought this franchise to ruin"
"Do not buy this game its not optimized. Just keep playing ark survival evovled tbh."
"Love the concept but even with my pc it's super laggy and does not look great"
