    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!!

    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.

      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.
