With the game being so short, is there any replayability?

?

No, it's a game that you play, finish and then that's it.

There is no forever mode.

Story is important.

It has an end.

The devs claim it could take 12 to 20 hours to finish it, but I spent 9 hours just completing the demo and then another 3 just messing around. So I for one expect to find the gameplay quite replayable.

On the Discord the devs have mentioned that the number of quests is finite, but you can continue doing them after the main story/quests completion, and then keep going and fill out your fishing encyclopedia. I can't remember if anyone has asked whether all the achievements can be done in one playthrough. There are decisions to make, although I have no idea what since I have been avoiding story spoilers.

Didn't know how long the game was, thanks for letting me know. 12 to 20 doesn't sound bad for the price of the game. I'd also imagine it will be closer to the 20 hour mark for me seeing as I like to go at a slower pace on exploration games like this.

Not every game needs to be a multi-hundred hour epic or an infinite grind hole.

Most AAA games are usually around the same length or there are some that are less. So this game is a good amount of hours for what it is, and when you finish the story you can endlessly keep on fishing.

Why is there so much hate directed at this game ?

It's not about the playtime, it's about enjoyment.
Only time will tell if it's a Portal or a Portaloo.

High cost, day 1 DLC, boring and tedious gameplay loop.

Anything else?

You just described 99% of all AAA titles.

It's not just this game, there's a new trend of people crying about the price of every new released game, sometimes because the visuals aren't next-gen enough, other times because the game is less than 100 hours long.

Same thoughts about Choo Choo Charles. It got a ton of topics about how much it should cost before it was even launched...
Some trolls are just nitpicking about the "dlc" which really isn´t a dlc.

Every game in the past few years have had a load of hate.
Too woke, not woke enough, too much grinding, not long enough.

There was a time when if a game was not for you, you'd simply move on but now people think their opinions are so worthwhile even if they have no interest in a game they will comment.

I am thinking of joining in, next call of duty game go onto the website and state
"Not buying this trash until they change it from a First person shooter to a cRPG. Fail devs"

[Kyllin]

Actually. a guy who lives in his moms basement and plays games all day is probably a pretty experienced gamer who could simply answer my question about replayabiliity without getting offended like a little woke baby man. LOL.

Just so you know it's a tell about who you are using the word "woke" unironically.

I don't get it. How's the replayability of this game? I'm trying to make a buying decision.
