AssassinSaberPro Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 How would be cool if we have a fishing games? I mean look at eso, wow, gw2, and some of the games with fishing. My best idea would be adding Kamino planet and maybe add an special area with fishing in it? and you can do daily, reward, and maybe turn in fishes for token or exchange fish for specific token like lost token that was remove like the dark side token?? just thought it would be neat if we have something to do other than crafting/grinding stuff we can fish thing while we wait for event or 7.3 patches. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sundancebill Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Maybe you could modify the seeker gadget that we use to look for treasure somehow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, nothing stops you *fishing* there, but, as on Quesh, throw whatever you catch back, and definitely do not eat it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No biggie bud! If were only able to go fishing the way I did as a young child ... I'd agree with you 100%. Sitting on a creek bank waiting for a few perch is not my idea of an exciting day either! That being said ... On an early spring morning 40 to 55 (F) cruising down the lake at 55 to 60 (mph) .. finding several LMB and ripping into a huge school of white bass (avg 1-2 lb each) ... THAT my friend will get you hooked into it for life! BTW.. the old man still can get 'em every now and then. Two fiberglass reproductions the last two years! PB is 7lb. Gunning for a new PB this year! AND ... I've narrowed down the field for a new "office" to one of three models! Pheonix 920 Elite II / Bass Cat Eyra / Bass Cat 203 Hybrid (**) ... (***) **The bottom of the hull is pattered after a Champion 203 (Mt. Home Arks. design) ... which I have owned in the past! It's one of the best hull designs ever made. *** I only buy used... never new! Saves tons of cash that way! Just waiting on the right deal to pounce on! 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROFL !!! I'm almost curious as to what sort of tackle anyone could use that would hold up in the first place!! Acid resistant might not be good enough!! 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WayOfTheWarriorx Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Fishing is about as fun as watching flies do the nasty. If your looking for an MMO that has fishing in it, go check out LOTRO. I hate fishing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just my opinion on it. That doesn't apply to anyone else. Just because I might not like something doesn't mean other people might not like it. Can never have too many options.

I haven't gotten that far in my fishing, but there are quests for catching certain fish there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackSilverRoar Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 (edited) Don't forget EverQuest 2's fishing. That was actually fun. MMOs all seem to do fishing differently. Idk if we really need fishing at this point, but is could prove an interesting event. Would like to be able to swim though, like EQ2, since the launch of this game - doesn't have to be Naboo Gungan style to a deep underwater city, but just swimming from coast to coast and to islands.

BlackSilverRoar Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 I think the Nintendo 64 Zelda games did fishing the best I've ever seen though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fishing is fun and relaxing. (At least to me it is). I've simply found a better way to expand on a favorite pass time. If I can't find the fish at one spot in the lake .. then fire up the motor on my boat and move around a bit. (Sometimes that doesn't work either ... but does help tremendously) IMO .. when it comes to fishing there are always possibilities! I'm still looking for that new double digit PB for a LMB! I guess it just depends on how a person wants to look at life / experiences! I like the suggestion of having the fishing experience in SWTOR ... BUT I would also like for it to include a boat as well (and yes a quest to earn it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharpenedstick Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 Water is only ankle deep in the Star Wars universe, so no fish survive to be fished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
