    Ark is not ESO, and there's nothing wrong with suggestion creatures/monsters to be added into the game and encountered in the game world by the player. ;-)

    Thing is tho: ESO is set in an established world, with established lore, from the single player games. There never were any dinosaurs.

    Guars do come close tho...

    Between Guars, Argonians, Clanfears and Queen Ayrenn, I think ESO has plenty enough dinosaurs.

    Damn it Siggy. Ayrenn isn't a dinosaur. Dinosaurs are actually likeable.

    Whales exist in the lore, you even see the Bones of one forming the Bridge in Sovngarde.

    We don't even have dragons, which fit the elder scrolls lore, why would they add dinosaurs, which fit no lore.

    What if they were vampire dinosaurs tho ?

    BTW many of the people who say something is unlorefriendly probably no nothing of the lore themselves, bet a lot of people thought any new creature ESO added was unlorefriendly because it wasn't in any other ES game now was it.

    That's an Argonian Behemoth, like Xal Nur and the boss in the 7th stage of Maelstrom Arena. Basically dinosaurs in their own way.

    They can totally be mounted though, and used to get around. I have no problem with this premise

    @TX12001rwb17_ESO Seeing how ESO takes place in the past compared to all other TES titles in running, there would be remains/history/spoke-word of a creature from this time period available in one of those games

    That would be a whole different game. Elder Scrolls games need Elder Scrolls lore.
    However, an MMO with dinosaur riders would be awesome.
