So what happens if, say, you're a dog, find another dog, hump her brains out and have a puppy, and then you die? Do you play as that puppy?

Yep, and his brother(s) follow you around. The parents stay at the nest.
You have to unlock a new nest for the new generation. (The generation after the first nest is available again to unlock)

Ah that's pretty cool then.

Just bought the game now by the way, leaving it to download overnight, I don't get it, I have 40MB internet, and everything downloads at 5mbps plus, except for my PS3... it downloads at like 150-200kbps... so I'll have to leave my PS3 on idling for some hours lol.

 

Also one last question (I think) then I'm off to bed (4:30am here and such...)

 

How long (In real time) does a year last ingame, like just a few minutes or more?

Seems to be 1 minute per year.

That seems to go pretty quick then, and I've lied, I'm going to ask a few more questions, THEN go to bed!

How long does a generation last on average?

Over time, does your animal become weaker with age, or isn't this a factor?

What's the longest you've lasted, and do you think you can last even longer than that?

Well the tutorial said your animal will die of old age after 15 years so you have to be faster than that, it's all dependent on you.  You could be really quick about it if you wanted.

I haven't noticed the generation getting weaker with age, but I haven't let them get that close to the 15 year limit so they might since they definitely start a generation smaller and slower and grow up over time.

longest was 62 years, and you could definitely go longer, it's just difficult because of the randomness of survival mode.  More than likely you'll be down and out at some point because you ran into a huge area swamped with tigers, or you have no luck finding food fast enough, or you get poisoned by a toxic environment.  Lots of ways to die.
