I really wish I could spot some kind of giant creature like the obviously scripted ones that were created just for the trailer. The huge dinosaurs, and the gigantic worm roaming through the sand. Damn, that would be cool.
But no, all you get are these smaller animals most of the time, where the majority look similar on each planet, and once in awhile you'll find something as big as maybe an elephant.
I have seen some cool looking rhino, tiger, etc stuff but other than that most of them are similar.
I think the farming as taken so much of my interest away from the game. I found a planet stocked full of Sak Venom. If you just mine it, then Sentinals come after you every time you grab one. But, if you upgrade your Boltcaster to wideshot, then you can one hit the Sak Venoms without getting attacked. So I did that for a couple of hours, made millions, and now I haven't touched the game in a couple of days.
I think I probably should have just not cared about the money and farming and just should have kept making my way through the Atlas story and eventually to the center.
