Yeah, I'm aware of the reality, but still, 3 foot long steaks should be a thing. If they can have warp drives they can have 3 foot long steaks. Conquering them, dumbing them down, and making them the best food in the galaxy. What's not to love? Maybe they just taste really good.

Yeah, a trait for dinosaurs to have giant Flintstone ribs (like in my picture) would be great. Maybe some kind of improved Very Strong trait, where the dinosaur has extra upkeep and +% worker output and +2 food as Livestock (which ignores the +% upkeep because slaves have trivial upkeep).

But that probably should not be automatic on everyone.

Might be time for “Huge” and “Tiny” traits that account for species with exceptionally different sizes.

Could be one of those non-removable trails you select at start that come with a combination of bonuses and maluses.

Asteroid events have a 5x multiplyer for occuring, and can happen to multiple planets. The comet event is always seen as bad.

On a serious note, having more traits and some new portraits would be neat. I also like the idea of traits that distinguish between large and small species. Like we have with high and low gravity worlds.

Monsterverse all monster as species appearance please.
I want to see all kind of roleplays.

EDIT: Oh my Godness, the post background is really sick, you are the best.

Also, HFY, they could maybe make titanic life about king of the monsters, Godzilla, kong, ghidorah etc… we can call them ‘planetary leviathans’. Or is that too far…

Oh my God this one, pleaseeeeeeee make it happening or there's any mods that make this happening.
I am tired of human-like stories. Need some taste of ancients leviathans

...Yes...Well done, you're about to summon the wrath of HFY... I can literally hear the feet of a rampaging diplodocus coming through here right now.

FWIW my favourite dino is a stegosaurus :p

Sometimes its hard to make a species pack. I feel as if some toxoids could fit into necroids or the one aquatic coral portrait could be plantoid. Also there is no real way to compare planet sizes so dinosaurs are a bit of a concept. But life has a different way to evolve anywhere in the galaxy/universe. There could be space dinosaurs who didn't get smashed by an asteroid or went extinct because of calamitous events.

I mean, I'm in. Imagine a Dinosaur Planet populated by primitives, especially if some... Monkey business takes place there...

Humans: "I am the monkey. This is my business."

But life has a different way to evolve anywhere in the galaxy/universe.

Yeah, if a galaxy can independently evolve Space Elf / Space Orc / Humans / five other kinds of humanoid, then there's no reason to assume only Earth could evolve Dinosauroids.

I do want a variation of Earth for Dino Sol, but that should be just one place where dinosuars could show up.

Other ideas include:
- Fallen Empire which sampled ancient Earth and seeded dinosaurs elsewhere
- MSI which uplifed some dinosaurs into servile beasts of burden
- Time-bubble frozen slaver ship (from some Precursor) which contains Dinosaurs
- Frozen dino samples create a special project when you clear a Glacier blocker
- The Omnicodex brings back extinct species -- dinos look pretty extinct right now

I vaguely remember Dr. Who featured a recurring character from a species of advanced humanoid dinosaurs who escaped the meteorite impact on Cretaceous Earth by fleeing in spaceships. Of course they took a bunch of dinosaur animals (like triceratops) with them when they set off to find a new home world.

New portraits would fit into multiple existing categories (Avian, Reptilian, Aquatic, Necroid, Toxoid)

New interactions with Titanic Life and would enable the player to re-animate fossils (either through necromancy or genetics) for new armies & a few huge pops.

Another Earth alternate storyline from a dimension where the asteroid event changed, now we have dimensional invaders (either dinos or humans as invaders, happens on new Dino Sol and original Human Earth).

Shipset with dino theme would be cool, plus give us some alternate attachment arrangements for existing ships -- like the "petal" flaps on Plantoid ships could be arranged in a line like a stegosaurus



(... honestly I just want a bunch of awesome dinosaur portraits.)
Dinosaur would be something between reptilian and avian, tho there is lot of such things.
Yet what you described is something more like "Kaiju" species pack
 
Please, God, let this happen. I want a t-rex species or a Utah raptor portraits. I'd pay any amount of money to make this happen. Please, stellaris dev people. I'm begging you. Make my dream a reality

Utah Raptor portrait Renowned Scientist with a hat, a whip, and a special Archaeologist trait named "Utah Jones".

Yes, this needs to happen.
