Fishing - a dream that could come true - next to hunting

[Jack Greedy]

Hello Friends,

Anybody knows if fishing is possible in KCD2 ?
Looking at all that ponds, lakes and rivers in part 2 makes me fully attached to the idea of fishing in such beautiful areas.
I know we can hunt like in part one, but what about fishing, even very basic, it will be a blast.

Probably just the same as the first game where you can loot fish traps. If actual fishing was in the game they would've already said so.

It is possible, but not in the modern sense. There used to be huge problems with the fishing line. It was made mainly of hair and was braided. Also, the hooks were not made very simply either. Most often, fish were caught in other ways. Unfortunately, I do not know what they are called in English, but you can read about it by searching a little on the Internet.

Ah You are both right, sad that we cannot go fishing for relax, as it will be great for immersion even if not historically accurate too.

there was alot more fish in the past i think. when my mom was young they used to just stand in the stream and pick the trouts with their hands. now you can stand all day in the same stream and not even see a fish, and if there is one its tiny.

2025 Henry would probably require a dialogue option asking if you wanted to have sex with the fish.

[Jack Greedy]

Yeah, we could hunt the fish with spear or bow :)

I also hope there they add pooping for realism.

Without knowing to much about it, as I have not yet had a chance to look at the game. I wouldn't be suprised if it would be quite doable to mod fishing into it.

[Jack Greedy]

Oh it will be so great ! These ponds and lakes looks so lovely.

[Bordric]

Hunting for sure. Fishing you have to loot the baskets.

The one thing that makes me think it won't be part of the game, is that Henry (still) can't swim. So the more we have to do around the lakes and rivers, the more that would be apparent.

Oh yeah! Swimming and diving while naked or in light clothes should be possible, it will add to the game's depth, with even some cool quests possible.

Should it be? Perhaps. But I understand the need/want to keep it out of the game as it would add the need to work even more things into the game. I mean the terrain would need to be expanded on. They would need to add fully rendered fish and algae. I imagine that is also why we (more then likely) won't see actual birds we can shoot down (actually render birds into the game)

I dont know if there will be fishing rod, but on the Dev livestream they have mentined that you can kill fish with a bow, there are also crabs apparently

[Jack Greedy]

Yeah shootable birds should be in game , for example phesants or ducks.
