I finished just about every Fishing hole i could find. only upgraded the lure. kept the starter rode. And except for the first few times to just adjust to the mechanics, i did not feel that it was much of a challenge. But who knows, maybe the fishing was made to be like that? Something simple to ease ones mind?
But I Don’t think the system needs to change, or needs more buttons added. It seems the fish just need to change direction more often (like WAY more often), or maybe just add diagonals to their movement options. because right now they only go up or down and it is just not enough to instill a challenge of any kind.
First hole was just to get me aquianted with the mechanics, but after that i was expecting it to be like: “up up down down left right, A B!”
instead I got. Up… Up… Down? “oh wait no… no it was pulled in already no down needed.” next fish!
Then:
“Oh sushi! sweet! wait… where did my sushi go?”
Which brings me to my next point. Do the fish parts we loot do anything? Do they add to cooking recipes we can give to the Inn? or maybe some other town for cool food items? Or is it just for show?
