Fisher Online Reviews

Enjoying the game so far would love to seee a ice fishing map in the future

This game is all RF4 is not, if you liked RF4, but were tired of their stupid mechanics, this game may be hit for you. There are some issues with final touch on some places (fish models, UI), also mechanics are not very detailed on all places. For example you can only feed by feeder basket, no PVA or spod available, but guess it can come in future. Also lure guiding is simplified for most methods you just right click regulary and bam here you go. What I like the most is that game somehow does feel good and rewarding, while not being extremely easy. Game tutorial is very weak and doesn't explain any advanced mechanics, like cutting fillets recycling them into pieces and selling cargos etc. Overall it is nice chill game with somehow not predictable fish (changing baits, locations). PS: Many people argue there is too much grind in this game, but I do think that main issue is non-existence of discord or any community where people could share what to fish for if one wants to level up fast. Now you need to catch every fish on lake to make assumption what would be best XP wise, if your goal is to progress to next map, but you can always get gear (for IRL or farmed with cargos) and do some trips, they became more expensive lately token-wise, but still may be good if one knows what to do those 2 hours at high level waterbody.

Very Similar to RF4, but I like how the fish fight more realistically as well as how you position yourself as you pull a fish in matters. Its also less grindy, which can be a negative or a positive depending on what your looking for. Also the music is awesome, not what you would think would be in a fishing game.
