Ark Survival Evolved

The game's like 10 years old now, but I'm finally getting into it! I've been playing with a friend nearly every night for about a week now, and I'm slightly addicted. My only complaint is booting and loading the game, especially for multiplayer. Holy shit, the game is so busted. Actually, gameplay is great, but it takes foreverrrr to boot, and I had to validate my files on Steam just to get it to run the first time. Apparently, the new DLC is a major part of the issue. I lowkey wanna start a girly Ark server, I think it'd be so fun! 

The game would be a 10/10 if it didn't have the loading issues, because there are so many mods for it. Literally, I could have the cutest base and cosmetics if I wanted, but my version HATES any extra work. Girls, if y'all wanna make an Ark server, lmk, I'll make it happen <3
