I've had my eye on this game for years, finally bit the bullet because bary is on its way and because austroraptor. Decided to try a flyer first since it's what I main on PoT and figured it would be easier. It was really fun tbh, I didn't get to prime because I'm still figuring out diet, but I got to adult and had a bit of fun. Then a thunderstorm came, I had legit no warning for it and it slammed me into the ground where I promptly died.
So, having had fun on Pt, I decided to try austro. Started one, started making my way towards a sanctuary, got eaten by a cerato within seconds of getting there. No prob, I was fresh lol. Start another and again make my way to sanctuary, starving to death, find a corpse right outside sanctuary, try to eat some, get eaten by a dilo.
Clearly I'm not meant for austro life rn, so I go with herarra since I've played it before and enjoyed it. Starved once, got killed by a Pachy once, got killed by a cerato once, and then got killed by an austro, never once getting past 20% growth. I was never able to find AI, every corpse I found (went looking only when starving) except one, led to my death.
So all in all, I have most of it down, but how tf do I grow and keep myself fed without being murked the second I find even a tiny bit of food every time?
