The reason dinosaur games fail is because they never adhere to any level of scientific accuracy in an age where people are more knowledgeable and smarter on outdated information about these giant animals.

>scientific accuracy
>no feathers

Dinosaurs that size would not have feathers for the same reason elephants dont have hair

They fail because only EA scammers and amateur indie devs make them.

elephants have hair just not as dense as a wolly mammoth

>turns out dinosaurs are just big gay chickens
>Suddenly they're not cool anymore and nobody wants to make accurate dino games

Shock. Even the new Turok the dinosaurs are all ALIEN world dinosaurs so they can be reptiles and scaly and not gay chickens.

I wish you bug-chasing furry golems would shut the fuck up with your durrrrr did u kno ackshually that the t-rex was an obese wrinkly chicken with peach fuzz that did a retarded dance while burping and that the babungasaurus from the dipshitto period was waaaaay cooler because it looked exactly the same but had an extra finger please consult the wikipedo page to see my deviantart oc drawing shit and let people enjoy cool dinos in peace

Its a lot simpler than these /an/ schizo debates, they just dont want to model and animate the skeletons for all the unique animals. Even Fromsoftware recycles the same dated, slow animations from the shambling undead humanoids found in Demons Souls.

This is false otherwise the JP movies would have flopped after the first but they keep making bank regardless of quality

Dinosaurs never existed, they're science fiction
>many ancient cultures have references to dragons, mythical beasts, giant sea creatures
>we find bones that look like them
>this would hurt the theories that our modern scientific world is build upon
>durrrr they were dinosaurs that lived millions of years ago lolzz
>put dinos everywhere in pop culture (which is curated as we know) so the masses accept this
Sure dude, trust the science bro. Because "scientists" have never been wrong or paid off in the past right?

It seems you have only read headlines. Only some types of dinos had feathers, not all.

Dino skeletons are put together based on speculation

Didn't the JP movies acknowledge that the reason they don't have gay chicken dinos is because they crossed the dinosaur DNA with frogs or something? They have an actual reason to keep the dinosaurs NOT scientifically accurate. Which is the only reason JP is a success. You're proving my point.

If they were all chickens the movies would flop.

Paleontologists have flopped back to the rex not having feathers.
"Scientifically accurate dinosaurs" is a sham because the more we learn the more often the stance on these creatures appearances, vocalizations, diets, etc. change.

I genuinely want to see big budget "bird" style dinosaurs
A chicken has an ugly, wicked face if you ever stop to look at it
Blow it up 500X and it could easily make for a horrible monster

That's because they know they don't have to work hard because they know fromfags will just east whatever slop they make

FUCK scientific accuracy
i want to play a game with these niggas

They base those designs off of far more than just the skeleton, they can look at the teeth and figure out what kind of diet they had, look at adjacent species, look at the environment etc. it's not just an artists random design.
