Cosmetic Perks

39 votes

Perks you could unlock that have no associated stat changes purely serving to make creature's more personal.

Examples:
;1 Metriacanthosaurus drooling like a komodo dragon
;2 Eotriceratops with a broken horn
;3 Deinocheirus with a pelican-like gullet
;4 Struthiomimus with a more 'skittish' idle animation
;5 Sarcosuchus with a small Oxpecker landing in the mouth when Sleeping (purely cosmetic, not an actual AI, think like the butterflies or the fish)

Since these require a lot of work to implement, they could be really expensive perks, showing a player's dedication to a specific playable and giving them something to work towards after they manage to get their desired skins / combat perks.

I love this, especially having broken horns. That would be a very nice cosmetic touch.
Maybe a tattered sail for spinos, or a missing eye option on any Dino.
I especially like the drooling. Would be cool to see a Meg with drool.

This would be super cool if, especially the missing horns/lost eyes/certain scars, to be like a reward for certain amount of battles won or other such later game stuff? Def a more further down the road addition to have a tracking stats feature (like how long youve stayed an adult (eldering?) or how many dinos you have killed) that would make this kinda work but yeah? High marks might be much easier tho, have it on the skin menu as an unlockable around the same kinda amount to albino or melanistic or something. It would certainly make reaching adult have something more to look forward to for other stuff to do besides eating, wandering, surviving, picking fights
