I watched this video twice, this is by far the best game Review I can find on the internet! I now know what is part of the core game, what is part of DLC, and all that compared with the previous game. Thank you, sir!!
I don't play the game, just here to support this channel.
Did you play the first game?
Hey good to see you covering the Jurassic world games my friend. This is how I found when you were talking about possible DLC for the first game
Really like your honest review my friend. And I can't wait to see your next year review of the game for 2023 if it lasts that long for Jurassic world Evolution 2.
I am eagerly anticipating your Planet Zoo year 3 review, and totally forgot that this video was also bound to come out.
What a very pleasant surprise!

And for free updates:
*_Legacy Skins Update_*
*New Skins:* Parasaurolophus _(1993),_ Pteranodon _(1997)_ and Triceratops _(2001)_
I know they’re pretty much just background characters in the films, but I just think it’d be nice to give them an appearance in the game for completeness’ sake.
*_Jurassic World Website Skins Update_*
*New Skins:* Baryonyx _(2015),_ Edmontosaurus _(2015),_ Microceratus _(2015),_ Pachycephalosaurus _(2015)_ and Parasaurolophus _(2015)_
Yes, I know the original Jurassic World website really isn’t relevant anymore, but the designs that weren’t in the film were just *AMAZING* and it’d be a *CRYING* shame to see them just disappear into obscurity, so why not immortalise them by adding them to this game, huh?
*_Custom Map Generator_*
Inspired by Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis, this feature would allow us to create our own maps by choosing the shape of a map and selecting a biome for it in sandbox.
*_Walking and social interaction animations for pterosaurs_*
Just to make them feel more realistic and alive like the dinosaurs, the pterosaurs could really use new animations of them walking on the ground like we see in documentaries. Also social interactions like the dinosaurs for each species would really help liven them up too.
*_Extra behaviour animations for marine reptiles_*
The marine reptiles are in serious need of more behaviours, so how about adding a few we see from modern marine animals like social interactions, scratching on the lagoon floor or coming up to the surface of the water to breathe. Or heck, even some of the behaviours seen in Prehistoric Planet would be nice to see as inspirations.
*_An option to sell dinosaur fossils for extra money_*
I really have no idea why this feature was removed after being in the first game, so can we please have it brought back at some point? It’d be extremely helpful for those struggling to keep their parks in a good financial position.
*_Insect Feeders_*
It’d definitely be nice to expand the options of food for some of our creatures, namely the Compies and Dimorphodon. And hey, it’d also be a nice addition to accompany new additions like more small pterosaurs or tiny dinosaurs like Mononykus and Segisaurus.
*_New scenery items_*
The individually placeable trees was a very nice addition for variety, but I still feel like the variety of natural scenery items can be improved even further to make our enclosures look even more attractive. How about things like waterfalls, logs or caves for our dinosaurs to rest in?
*_New filters for Capture Mode_*
It’d be really cool to add some funky new filters to Capture Mode in the future like Duotone, Infrared, Negative, Silent Era style or X-Ray.
This was a good video. Would love to see a second anniversary video and listen to your opinions of the developments since the first
It’s always great to see your year in reviews! It’s also great to see how this game has evolved since the first game!
Glad you got your channel back 🙂 thank you for your perspective and reviews !
Got this game as a late birthday present, loving it so far and really enjoyed this video!
Your reviews are really highest class - Keep on working hard!
I'd love if in 1st person mode you could get attack by dionos
It's always great to hear your takes on games. I play JWE2 on a PS5. A lot of things were added since this video was published. I hope you make a video with your thoughts on the updated content and the game as a whole.
Nice video, will be watching it later! Btw, will there be a 3-year in review for Planet Zoo?
Now this is a proper review! Thank you very much ;)
Nice review of Jurassic World Evolution 2 .👍🏽
Nice Review! Can you do Prehistoric Kingdom next?
You deserve more subs
really good reviews, thought out, well planned, executed and paced ; you remind me of skill up (before he gave up and went shit ) :)
How’s it nearly been another r year already??? Time flies
I miss hearing from you regarding the Jurassic series
Very thorough, refined review of the game.
Needs to be VR
The Feathered Species Pack has four Asian feathered species: Jeholopterus, Yutyrannus, Sinosauropteryx, and Deinocheirus.
Great review I had this game 3 days early on launch and it was missing basic things like selling fossils 😂. Have any of these issues been fixed because i’ve been curious to pick it up again since its dreadful launch state. Great review
Yeah most of these major issues were patched and the game is quite polished bugwise, the fundamental gameplay issues still remain though.
@@ReviewGen Ah man thats a shame to here after all this time, thanks for the reply. Hopefully it will come to PS+ at some point
@@OurLouwell it has come to ps plus now a few months later, what are your thoughts?
@@cookiesnugglez7318 its certainly a lot better than launch and what was on the disc thats for sure. Glad its on ps plus now
Has the frame rate gotten better on ps5?
I disagree in some aspects but overall a neat video
Needs to be vr
Did ya check out the Malta DLC yet?
They tend to do reviews in year. Maybe they will have a Season 2 for JWE 2 video late 2023.
Gen you can’t upload a video before I need to go to work!!
Lunch break sorted 😋
@@ReviewGen Something to look forward to throughout my day!
lets not forget THE BEST glitch where a dumb ass will literally STOP, NOT MOVE, DEHYDRATE STARVE and die. love it.
The Dominion Biosyn Expansion should have been a free update this game would have released at the same time as the movie if the movie wasn't delayed. Its an absolute scam thats its 20 bucks
I like how you don't pull any punches. This game series is sadly a big disappointment for management park-sim lovers
Jurassic world dominion
I only bother with this series because of the JP themed stuff. Not a fan of the JW movies myself.
I don’t like using mods personally
Bad game more like jurassic world 1.5
The game is far from bad. It’s way better than JWE1.
