Yeah I know. "this isn't wow/rift" mantra is all I hear when I bring this up to friends.
But come on! There's planets with epic lakes in surely!. Naboo had some awesome geography. So add in some fishing. I loved fishing in WoW, I used to find it was a fun thing to do, while waiting for the raid to commence.
I don't mind if its not put in, but personally, you'd make me a happy, happy space bunny
