Ark Survival evolved has captured the imaginations of PC gamers all over the world. Thousands of hours have been poured into this game by PC game lovers of all kinds. Here are 8 reasons why Ark Survival Evolved is the PC game you have been missing out on.

1. You love dinosaurs

Really what’s more to say? Okay, not convinced? You get to explore a world full of extinct creatures. From a T-REX to a giant turtle, you can tame and ride them all. If you have dreamed of devouring a Parasaur or a Triceratops with the razor sharp teeth of a T-Rex, then this is the game for you.

2. It’s basically a ‘Journey to the center of the earth’ video game

Ark Survival Evolved is basically a game where you can live in the ‘Journey to the center of the earth’ kind of world, with all of its prehistoric creatures. But beware the giant scorpions, snakes, and centipedes. They are hungry, and you are low on the food chain.

3. You can explore miles of underground caves

As long as you’re not afraid of bats and giant spiders, you can go spelunking in the dark underground caves around the various islands in each of Arks three different maps. Make sure you bring some food and water with you though. Many survivors die of starvation down there.

4. Ark has an advanced crafting system

Do you enjoy making things and gathering resources? Yes, me too! In Ark, you can craft various tools weapons and equipment. You have to plan ahead, learn skills, and gather endless different resources, from animal hide to crystals in this craft heavy survival game. Low-level players and high-level players alike, have a constant need to craft and secure their place in this new world. Better stock up on some arrows. It’s dangerous outside of the hut.

5. The social intrigue of the online community

Ark is a game where it can be both beneficial and dangerous to be social. Sometimes the biggest threat to your survival comes from the most dangerous animal of all, man him/herself. You get to trade with other survivors, you can make alliances, and of course, wage wars. But be careful, you may wake up to find that your neighbor that you saved from a sabretooth tiger has now broken into your base, and stolen all of your precious scorpion eggs.

6. You can fly Pteranodons

Again, what more is there to say? You can sneak up on an unsuspecting victim, swoop them up, then drop them in a volcano. If I were you, I would be screaming “Take my money now!”

7. Base Building

Who really does not enjoy building and defending bases? Find a site you want to settle at, build a little hut, and over time have a fortress. Mount auto turrets on your walls, tame an army of angry raptor guard dogs, build on top of a volcano! Ark offers you the ability to build an epic base, that only the most powerful of tribes could raid!

8. You can wage war on your neighbors

They call them “griefers”. Some people get a lot of enjoyment out of raiding the bases of other tribes or killing the creatures that took them hours to tame and days to prepare for. If this is the kind of pain that your sociopathic heart desires, then Ark is the game for you. Kill all of the things, rule the server, be the evil tyrant you always wanted to be!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
