For a game with such excellent Pacing. Why?
Now if i caught your attention. I feel that dave the diver is an amasing experience. I never tend to be dragged so deep in to a game of this kind. but it captured me and my review sings praises of it.

However for a game with excellent pacing that allows you to learn mechanics at free hand. Doesnt shove to much down your throat to early.

Why is GYOA and Fishmon introduced so late in to the game? They are by far the two most time consuming activities since they limit your progress on them. Fishmon you get 1 per week. Thats allow of click Skip time. And GYOA feels like the luck of the Draw. I really wanted to 100% and get all achievments. I even stopped myself from doing the main story line. I'm currently on chapter 7 and ''SPOILER!!!!!!!!!!! ''
been told by the laser cutting drone to go down in to the control room.

I'm close to several lvl 20 staff. I got all upgrades for FARM. FISH. I got all weapons. I got pretty much all versions of them. I got the most expensive interior for both branch and Sushi restruant.

All i wanted was to feel i was 99% done by the time i went for the Finish storyline achievment. But this GYOA thing is testing my patience.

TLDR: I feel that Fishmon and GYOA should been introduced way way earlier in the game allowing you to work towards them at an early stage so your not forced to litterly SKip 100 days to get this done.

I'm actually surprised you managed to get several level 20 staff without getting the 5 GYAO and all fishmon considering just one level 20 employee already costs a chunk of money.

That saiid, Fishmon and Gyao add absolutely nothing to the core game. They are optional minigames that the devs added just for some fun side activities. The only reason to get them all is for achievements, and as far as achievements go, the requirements are really mild compared to many other games. If it's that important to you, the game conveniently allows you to time skip, and you lose nothing in the process.
Personally, I have no intention to rush through them since the devs have more updates planned for the future.

Close to several I got 3 lvl 16 and 1 lvl 17. I know the last 2-3 ranks are insane in price.

I just felt since dave the diver captured me so well that it deserved a 100% run. Yet this last parts feel very barebone. And honestly is hurting the experience as it doesnt feel like it adds anything. If thats the case? why add this massive timewaster simply for the sake of having an achievment?

Would it not been more fun having a boss rush then where you must defeat all bosses in one go without dying? Or doing a massive no teleport dive from top to bottom. So you must dive from the surface down to sacred tree then back up without using the mirror? Im not saying its perfect but it felt like more interesting achievments.

I'm close to 40h in to the game now. And I dont feel like I rushed anything. Consider i actually went out of my way to max out several dishes and craft diffrent versions of several weapons simply cause it was fun to collect.

I will 100% the game. I just felt that i enjoyed the experience up to 90-95% of the entire game and never once had issues with anything. Until I notice this.

I have 1 GYOA. The turtle and for some reason he's not dying or anything. I had him for over 2 ingame weeks now. just waiting for something to happen. Hoping he die of old age or evolve again in to something.

You say you lose nothing? does going in to debt cause your not running your sushi store matter? I notice some people screenshoting themself being 300 000 in debt. Does that matter?

FWIW, I don't think it'd hurt anything to introduce them earlier.
