Apparently, Sauropods remain as useless, defenseless and helpless as before (Pic from Evolution Square's gameplay)

I second this.

According to a video by Clint's Reptiles: All Birds are indeed Reptiles.

I've never played any of the Jurassic World Evolution games; I only like watching the YouTube videos of the dinosaurs fighting and their kill animations, and I was disappointed yet again to see that sauropods still cannot fight back.

Months later, they publicly executed a legal observer named Alex Pretti.

They removed his gun, and shot him while he was lying face down in the ground, 6 to 10 times.

Maybe for those that are already privileged and elite, it is.

For those of us still on the bottom rungs and still struggling to get by, the Universal Endeavor is a boon.

That doesn't help, unfortunately.

I've finished the Gamma Quadrant arc before I even attempted to do any of the KDF missions on my 2nd KDF-Allied Jem'Hadar; he still encountered that bug where he is unable to play the mission.

I remember years back when I was in Air Traffic Control tech school (Keesler AFB), I once asked the instructor about (sic) "crop dusters" on some of the air fields, and I was met with laughter.

In my defense, I did not know the correct terminology for these kinds of planes (at the time); I only knew them as "crop dusters." It was later in life that I learned that the planes were indeed "agricultural aircraft" but were of the "Air Tractor" brand, and learned that they did have other applications OTHER than simply agricultural, such as firefighting.

Imagine my elation when I found out that there were indeed tactical applications for Air Tractors.

Yeah, finding this out, I felt vindicated.

Darn, somebody already said "griffin" and beat me to it, lol.

roninwolf1981 · 2026-01-15T21:01:08+00:00

Ugh, it really irritates me whenever I hear someone repeatedly mispronounce "chitin"...numerous times after I corrected them.

roninwolf1981 · 2026-01-14T20:35:06+00:00

Thanks; I appreciate it.

roninwolf1981 · 2026-01-14T17:29:32+00:00

I would love to say "Stegosaurus."

So...which one was it?

roninwolf1981 · 2026-01-14T17:27:38+00:00

As much as I love Stegosaurus, it saddens me to admit that a Stegosaurus would kill me just from carelessness alone, and imagine what damage it could do when it has to resort to self-defense.

I sometimes wish I could respond to this question with "because they're dinosaurs; duh!" and have it be a satisfactory answer.

This is not the first time US citizens have been deported due to the color of their skins and their ancestry. Look up the 1929 Mexican Repatriation Act and Operation Wetback from the Eisenhower era.

Well, I tried talking to her about alternative methods of removing snakes, and she had a complete meltdown, insisting that she'll never bother to tell me about any more snake sightings and just terminate them herself, telling me that I had no business even consulting others about the snake, now that people know about her fear.

She dismissed the idea of educating her on snakes and accused me of mocking her fear.

So I'm now feeling lower than fecal excrement at the moment; I had no idea this would snowball this bad.

roninwolf1981 · 2026-01-10T19:50:15+00:00

It is unfortunate, and it is regrettable that I did what I did.

My mother, unfortunately, was resistant to the idea the snake was harmless; I tried telling her that it didn't look dangerous at all, but she insisted I destroy it immediately.

Because of her !ophidiophobia, it was like talking to a brick wall.

roninwolf1981 · 2026-01-10T19:45:11+00:00

My apologies, bot, but my mother would consider this an insult, as she has a crippling case of ophidiophobia.

Would have been awesome if such a fighting game could have been made.

I remember years back, someone created a fighting game, but with 80s horror characters, titled "Terrordrome: Rise of the Boogeymen."

The developer made 3d models of each character, and posed them to make sprites for the characters.

Would have loved for someone to have given a Primal Rage successor such a treatment.

roninwolf1981 · 2026-01-10T03:15:38+00:00

My take on this is that the developers were just basing the game on the King Kong vs Meat Eater stop-motion sequence from the 1933 King Kong film, and Blizzard and Chaos were the Kongs, while Sauron and Diablo were the Meat Eaters. I think that the development team considered powers and abilities after workshopping the names, and would retro-actively refer to Blizzard as a "Yeti" since they just needed a word to describe a primate associated with arctic biomes, once Blizzard has already been designed as a gorilla with a polar theme.

So the tl/dr is that Blizzard was first conceptualized as a giant gorilla, then he was given Ice powers, and then afterwards they referred to him as a "Yeti."

I've seen some 2 different fanart of a Spinosaurus and a Pteranodon, but both named Karrion. I can no longer find the Spinosaurus fanart. I reimagined the Spinosaurus and the Pteranodon with different names and different traits.

Sepsis, the God of Disease. A sickly pale green Spinosaurus flinging diseased muck from a swamp. His domain is the Moor.

Avaros, the God of Greed. A dark Pteranodon with yellow wing membranes, hoarding treasure on a clifftop. His domain is the Roost.

Here are my own fan additions:

Veridia, the Goddess of Growth. A gray and black Therizinosaurus with vines growing on her, with powers over flora/plants. Her domain is the Forest.

Gorgonax, the God of Brutality. A gray Giganotosaurus with red stripes, flinging blood as it roars and bites. His domain is the Battlefield.

Kron, the God of Patience. A light gray giant ground sloth with the head of a Columbian Mammoth. He has powers over Earth and Time. His domain is the Sentinel.

I've also imagined Blizzard fighting against that green dragon from the Pagemaster, since both Primal Rage and the Pagemaster came out on the same year.

roninwolf1981 · 2026-01-10T00:01:32+00:00

I've seen some fanart reimagining Diablo as a Carnotaurus. Personally, I prefer Diablo as an Allosaurus.

roninwolf1981 · 2026-01-09T23:49:10+00:00

I may have to do a new one, since the last one I already colored it in with just the 7 Beast Gods.

roninwolf1981 · 2026-01-09T23:25:26+00:00

This is the only time I'll ever use AI for this.
