Taming a Doedicurus to Finish our Base. What Could Go Wrong? | ARK Survival Evolved First Time Ep 9

After a little break, Fred is back and he needs stone. Lots of stone. So naturally, it's time to tame the grumpiest armadillo on The Island, and prepare to finish this base once and for all. 🦖🪨 Welcome to Episode 9 of my ARK: Survival Evolved first-time playthrough on The Island! With the squad back on its feet, Fred sets out to tame a Doedicurus, the best stone-gathering tame in the game, to finally finish the base workshop. It's a straightforward plan. But it doesn't stay that way, because this is Fred we're talking about, and the usual chaotic decisions absolutely ensue. I've watched a TON of ARK but barely played it, so this is me putting way too much theory and nowhere near enough experience to the test. 🏝️🦖 ABOUT THE SERIES A first-time player's complete journey through ARK: Survival Evolved on The Island. Part Let's Play, part learn-with-me beginner survival guide, I know the theory, I'm just terrible at the practice. Expect taming guides, base building, resource runs, first flyers, cave runs, boss fights, big wins, and some genuinely hard losses along the way.
