Oddities within the Species selection tab Vol 2
4 years ago
Apparently they updated this, time to nitpick
- Airborne Vehicle could just be lumped in with the other robot category. It doesn't need to be distinct.
- Why is there a Vulpine (other) and Fox (other)? They aren't synonymous, but Fox includes every species in the tribe Vulpini
- Aeromorph is mecha again! Why is it distinct from Airborne Vehicle AND the other robots?
- Dutch Angel Dragons are explicitly a Dragon species. I get why they're in the open species section, but they could just be posted under Dragons.
- Angel is a massive umbrella term. Like what, Cherubs? Seraphim? Why not just make an other category for them? Same goes for demons.
- Half the mythological species are hybrids. Which were already covered.
- Demons and Daemons?
- Incubus and Succubus should go under demons.
- A minor nitpick but Hobbits by technicality, aren't mythological. They lived on Flores, Indonesia, in the ice age. Check out Homo Floriensis.
- Aren't yokai an enormous, diverse group?
- Same goes for Pokemon
- I can assure you transformers are too.
- Corvid/ Crow issue persists
- Also why did they just made a random ass animal list? At least the old one was easy to navigate!
- BUFFALO APPEARS TWICE
- Cephalopods and Crustaceans are HUGE groups with many, many species
Honestly this list is super awkward to navigate, so I've probably missed a lot
