I'm relapsing on my ARK addiction, I haven't played it for 5 years, but I'm back to playing it again.
Anyway I wanted to make a list of my favorite creatures
THE SNOW OWL - I love this thing sm. I already loved griffins, but combine their dive ability with a heal mechanic and give it the appearance of my favorite bird? Can't ask for more.
Otter - the absolute best shoulder pet (Jerboa gets an honorable mention for warning you when storms are coming) they look adorable and give you heat and cold insulation.
Gigantoraptor - huge, fluffy speed demons that are also the BEST mothers of any creature. These big birds were an amazing addition (they're also my favorite dino irl, not just ark).
Wyvern - I know it's so typical to have them as the best, but its just an objective fact that they are fucking sick and useful.
Yutyrannus - FLUFFY CARNIVAROUS DINO HELL YEAH, and yeah, their roar buff is great too, ig.
Thylacoleo - My first big achievement when taming. These guys can be annoying to deal with (lost my first pterodon to them), but they are SO WORTH GETTING.
Velonasaur - I mean, it's a raptor-esque creature that can create and shoot their own bullets. How could I not love it? It might not be the most useful, but its design is great.
Parasaur - I know these guys are only really useful in early game, but I have a soft spot for them. They're the first useful tame you'll probably get and this dino was the first I got truly attached to (RIP Alice, she died defending me).
Managarmr - One of the most versatile creatures, it can travel extremely fast and can run, fly, and swim well. Not many creatures can do all that.
Deinosuchus - Oh my god, I am in love with this absolute juggernaut of a gator. They may be slower than the sarcosuchus, but they have one hell of a devastating bite.
