My favourite herbivore is the Reefback. I love watching them and even though it is a game, imagining that they really are social creatures.
My favourite carnivore is the mesmer. Most creative creature I've seen in a video game, they are also adorable to look at and have the best colour pattern out of any other fish.
I guess favourite robot: Warper. Because it is the only non actual fish. But also deserves a spot because it is really cool and interesting how it is intergrated into the story. And it's powers are also reall cool and unique. Also why is it classed as a carnivore doesn't make much sense to me?
Favourite parasite: Either floaters followed by bleeders and finally shuttlebugs
Favourite Flora: Either... Blood vines, Creepvines, Eye Stalks, Giant Cove tree, Jelly Shrooms. My personal favourites are either rouge cradles or membrain trees.
I will also give shout outs to the bonesharks (I find them cute), pretty much all the smaller creatures other than the spadefish (Spade fish annoy me for some reason) and the Crabsnake I find them on par with the mesmer, creative, I would like them to do another cave like system that isn't part of the biome it is found under and not really related to the story I know these caves have info on the Degasi crew but other than that it seems so seperate and beautiful from the world.
I will also add my least favourite creatures.
Least favourite herbivore: Spade fish (these annoy me they take up too many biomes in replace of better and more colourful fauna).
Least favourite carnivore: Crabsquid. Mainly because of how aggressive they are. I wish you could observe them like you can with bonesharks, stalkers and sandsharks who obviously still attack you but no where near as frequently as the crabsquid. Design wise it is awsome. I dislike them compared to reapers and sea dragons which are supposed to be there to attack you. Crabsquids seem to have a hatred for people, maybe because the degasi crew disturbed them too much when they built a base in the grand reef?
Least favourite flora: Don't really have one. Personally I feel that there is not enough flora in certain biomes.
Least favourite parasites: I really hate cave crawlers with a passion. They make me use the no damage cheat in the Aurora way too much as I just cannot be bothered to deal with them. Blood crawlers are also annoying but since in water and easily avoidable I care much less about these. Especially since you will probably have the prawn by this point in the game as they are found mainly in the blood kelp zone, making them easy to kill.
I love your reply so much, so much reasoning behind it!
I'll second that! I hate those damn things. It's partly why I went on a rampage in the Lost River with my PRAWN suit. Every single Blood Crawler I could find got to test-drive the drill arm.
Rabbit rays are awesome, but I hope they serve more of a purpose in the future.
Not to mention if you're in a cave and hear the screechGROOWWWWWLLL sound, you quickly panic and wonder when was the last time you saved...
A serious pain. I had to grapple one with the PRAWN, drag my little pseudo-mechwarrior up to it by the cable, and beat the beastie to death with the other fist so I could get one to hold still long enough to finish my scan.
It's actually better with the bare metal fist, one quick sucker punch kills them and you're on to the next.
This game is SO violent for a game without "real" guns.
Faster, yes, but significantly less fulfilling.
Aw, can't bite through a PRAWN suit, canya? Huh? This is a drill arm, you see. Active mulch mode. Brrrrrrrrrrrrrr...
