Y'all are acting as if the time sink is the only issue, and that there also isn't the huge issue of babysitting and not being able to answer the phone, talk to FC members, nothing. You can't do anything but watch the game, and a lapse in focus or a bad trigger finger could cost you days in real time.

Sanity and health are also the costs of this terrible, unfun fishing system. And yeah, nobody has to do it-- but how the heck are you going to defend content by saying "it's for nobody to actually do-- only people who want to hurt themselves"?

Also, you many people who literally word it like "no, don't ruin fishing!"... Making the minigame not require your constant, perfect focus-- and making it actually fun to do-- isn't ruining it. You also sound like you're throwing a tantrum.
