I needed somewhere to talk about my thought on Ark and its story. I'm not criticizing it, I'm just interpreting it.

I'm so sorry.

Anyway, ascension brought a lot of things to the storyline of Ark. My take on it is that:

1. The player is being watched by Homo Novus.

2. The Arks are orbiting a planet far away from Earth.

3. The player is a program.

4. The player's progress is according to plan.

1: When you first ascend to the mothership, the first thing people see is the three boss arenas. This reveals that the creators of the Arks are watching the player and their attempts to survive and thrive. Next comes a series of three globes and three "design chambers" for want of a better word. The first design chamber shows Pangaea and the design chamber shows assorted animals. I shall disregard that some dinosaurs, and many of the mammals did not live on Pangaea. As you know, the dinosaurs were on Earth and in the Ark. Then, the player comes to a globe depicting Earth as it is today, and a design chamber showing humans. Ho hum. But the next room is the most intriguing. The player comes to a third globe and design chamber. The globe shows Earth far in the future, as the oceans dry up. And the oceans do dry in that pattern.

(Sorry no time to finish this now. Will edit later.)
