You were right the first time - they’re CRISPR-edited gray wolves engineered to exhibit the physical traits they found in dire wolf DNA.

There’s an 80-gene difference between dire wolves and gray wolves, and they’ve modified 14 of what they felt to be the most variant differences.

It’s still fascinating and tremendously difficult, and probably the best we can hope for in a very long time, but I don’t feel Colossal are being totally honest in their presentation.

B-Real pops up at around 3:30 in the video, he’s not in the car.

Indeed, over two years on both Lemmy and Mastodon! The reach isn’t as impactful as bigger platforms, but we vibe with the philosophy of the platforms.

BGS have shown us nothing but good will, we’re following their guidelines strictly on assets - i.e. nothing ported, everything remade from scratch - and we’re requiring both Morrowind and Skywind to be installed… but there’s no guarantee. We’re not stressed about it.
