The Angler have to be better than Fishing Planet

[alpharslan97 BOYKOTA DEVAM KANKA]

Fishing games lovers are playing Fishing Planet for some long time because there is no competitor to this game. I hope The Angler will replace Fishing Planet and will be our new favourite fishing game & simulator.

Call of the Wild: The Angler's idea is lovely. But there is no gameplay footage since release. We need to see something before we buy a game, right? Dear devs, please. Thanks in advance.

Probably less than ten days now and youll see it all over YouTube. Im loving The Fisherman Fishing Planet at the moment I prefer it to the P2W version. I think The Angler will struggle early on against FP to be honest. But we will soon find out.

Developers provide Fishing Planet a lot of content for a long time. For sure The Angler will struggle early on against FP but I am looking forward to play it for long term. Probably they will release paid DLC's as maps for fishing different type of fishes like Pike, Sharks, Carp or more. If that happens The Angler will lose lots of player because of that. Because, FP is free and paid content mostly add velocity to grinding.

I prefer the DLC business model over micro transactions. FP the "Free" to play just isnt fun for me. Its geared to keep you spending little and often.

That's true, it forces you to buy premium or grind northern pike for 500 hours to get another expensive maps. But I find DLC's a little bit expensive than its supposed to be. So I did pay for a full game, right? DLC's should be cheaper imo.

Avalanche DLC's are very cheap so we should be ok.

i dont see why i has to be better, why not play 2 good games .
the one thing that bothers me tho are the devs, not a good record at all with bugfixing, so
certainly no day 1 purchase

Very different games I think. This one will be more about exploration and the single player experience, rather than just casting your line over and over.

I am playing Ultimate Fishing Simulator 2 nowadays and my expectations from The Angler is a little bit raised. UFS2 not bad but needs polish and we will hopefully see a polished The Angler in launch.

Yeah new maps maybe rod & reel packs will be probably DLC's in this game. Their DLC business model points it.

FP - Since when does everyone casting to the same pixel for the same fish constitute a good game ?

RF4 - I gave up cause of the stupid prices.

UFS2 - Was originally due to release as EA 2020. They are so far behind in all aspects, and they still barely have any game to show for it..

The last good fishing game was by JC Spooner around 2000 and it was called Fishing Simulator 2 (Or as we called it Fishsim2).
Everything since has been half assed games with virtually no content and/or require no thought, just for the sake of making money. No-one cares about making a good game/sim anymore, it's all about the money

[DopaTrain]

Fishsim 2 lol.

Laugh away. The amount of player created venues, tackle and bait just proves how big and popular it was.
There are thousands of venues alone and still new ones being created today.
There are facebook groups with people who still run and enter various different formats of competitions.

Below is the main download site but there used to be a dozen or more people who created their own websites to showcase their own creations because otherwise they got lost in the mix. There also were official (allowed to be used for records and competitions) and unofficial venues which went to the extreme at times with sci fi, seasonal etc. The ones here were only the official.

Cool because that keeps the game fresh a lot longer.
