I recommend ark for people who are interested in sandbox games and huge world with many ways to travel and build. That is something I dislike The Last of Us 2 because that game was a crime against choice and creativity. We don't need a story to play, we just need to be able to make our own. This game with all its problems and bad optimization is rated high by the people make their own story. The game is good alone and with friends (progression is definitely easier with others though). But almost everything in that DLC will forever be my most memorable experience. I am not sure what was so captivating for me living in a hot desert world. Then my favorite game was released-Scorched Earth. I traded and slowly progressed through the game.
I also made ours to dangerous places for new people. there were also those who made huge tribes creating laggy bases, and also holidays when they stopped playing because by the time their bases expired, there were a dozen of players getting ready to claim their dinos. There were those building amazingly beautiful castles and houses. There were those that did nothing but the breeding. I have met all types of people while playing on official PVE. But us, people giving it high ratings stops only what we can imagine. There will be plenty of people who will say there is nothing to do or that the game is grindy. And the original 20$ I spent was well worth it. As you can tell, mixed review for a great concept, but it is definitely a game worth putting a couple of hundred hours into for the experience.
And if you let it, it will run your life. And they might decide your stuff looks tasty.
Because the game never pauses, while you sleep, people are still playing. And sometimes you login only to find everything you own gone, and nothing but red in your log. You fight, sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes you find yourself handcuffed to a toilet when you log in, making you someone else's personal fertilizer factory for their crops. Then, as you get better, and you build bigger, and collect more virtual pets to eat your neighbors with to protect your belongings, you become more invested. This game hooks you, because you play at first to learn, and experience the wonders.

I saw the rage of gamers, angry at a ten dollar fee for downloading the Scorched Earth map, after they had paid twenty dollars in Early Access for the game, that's right, and gotten two whole maps with the addition of The Center, which was a free map. I have watched it all, from the Flier Nerf that caused tens of thousands of players to quit in the span of a few days, to the joy and awe of the Center map being released on official servers as the first expansion in mid 2016. I have seen all of the developmental hell this game went through, from barely scraping by and the devs working 12-16 hours a day, six and seven days a week for little to no pay as an indie game that a little too closely resembled another, ill fated game that one of the leads dumped to create this one, to the eventual sellout to a massive unfeeling, unthinking corporation that immediately tried to make Dark and Light, a blatant ripoff of Ark, which was a ripoff of The Stomping Lands. Many bugs, constant updates, and an oftentimes glitchy experience but a persistent open world environment and interactions with hundreds, thousands of people in the nearly four years since then has made it a love/hate relationship. I began playing it in Early Access in Aug of 2015.
