I skipped the whole Northern Skies phase, because it was the site that brought down Tesara, my first home, so I left for a while and was never really active there.
After a while, I made many friends here and rose to staff-level, something I've been at Tesara, The Showroom, Gaia and here at TRT, as well as many smaller, failed, forums. Skip a few years and I move back to Brazil and find my disk, so I start playing Zoo Tycoon 2 again and find the community, namely Tesara during it's beginning stages after the downfall of Environ. I didn't manage to put it in my game, though, because I thought just downloading it would immediately make it pop up. I remember searching for ZT downloads and I found an Argentinosaurus (*flashback to when I thought dinosaurs were interesting* *shudders*). I used to love playing the challenge zoos, which always ended up looking sort of the same, in the large City Zoo map, with that small square being used for an Indian Peafowl exhibit. After its downfall, I was still very young and didn't carry on in the community, but I carried on playing. I joined the community in the official ZT2 forums, all those eons ago, under the username "animallover123456789", very mature. Subsequently, I bought the two expansions. I then pestered my parents until they bought me the Zookeeper Collection. I was introduced to Zoo Tycoon 2 by a friend of mine when I was around 8 or 9. That was how I discovered this community. When I became interested in modding again, I discovered Aurora Designs and downloaded their dodo. Anyway from there I discovered Zoo Admin and had my introduction to modding.Īfter awhile, I moved (among other huge changes in my life) and forgot about ZT2 for awhile. When I came across the design team Artifex, I had no idea what modding was, and for a split second I legit thought Arabian Nights was some weird BF expansion. The first thing I did when I got the game was open up the Okavango Delta map and make a mixed species exhibit with common and pygmy hippos. I had already played the original demo as well as the Endangered Species demo by that point, so I understood the basics of the game.
I got the game for my tenth birthday, specifically Zookeeper Collection. It just feels good, if a little bittersweet, to talk about the nostalgia. I'm just curious to see what your best Zoo Tycoon 2 memories are. I don't know what the future holds, so I don't want this to be seen as a sort of "here at the end of all things/looking back before we go" type of thread. So, I thought I would start a topic where we can share all those good ol memories. Strangely, the elephant seal is mentioned on the game's description on the official website's "About Zoo Tycoon 2" page, despite the animal itself only appearing in the first game's Marine Mania instead of that of the sequel.The recent discussion regarding the longevity of the game and the community has me looking way back.
