    Give the game an honest chance and I think we are all going to be pleasantly surprised and overwhelmed with a wonderful experience. To do otherwise is a disservice to Yoshi and his team and ourselves. If it really has issues then we'll be given a chance to express that to Yoshi even if it isn't until phase 3. He listens when the masses speak and we have a pretty loud voice me thinks.

    Beta tomorrow! I cannot wait.
    My negativity has subsided a bit. I'd still really like to get some form of response on this, especially if all the noise we're making could push fishing to an earlier phase. Leaving it to the third just seems like a mistake if it's a brand new system that needs as much testing as the others. Like Aenarion said, the fact that it's not going to be given much testing just fuels my worry.

    If it happens that the new system is absolutely rubbish, I hope we can bring about the same support we've managed to collect in these two threads again and make ourselves heard.

    How upsetting it will be to participate in beta, walk past all the new and exciting lakes and rivers and not be able to fish in them! D:

    Still hope we hear about fishing sooner than later!
    I really hope they care enough about the feedback of fishing and allotted time enough to make changes especially if they've overhauled it as much as they say they have...

    Act in such a way that you treat humanity, whether in your own person or in the person of another, always at the same time as an end and never simply as a means

    Considering how little sleep/how much I neglected school for just the luminary rod, I'm pretty sure the lu shang or ebisu rods would murder me.


    ... Bring it on!

    News! And it's almost encouraging!

    A: I believe it'll be much easier to understand when you actually play, but I'll go ahead and give you an idea of what we're planning. I think in an MMO world there are a lot of times where you just want to chat with people, you are waiting on friends, or you don’t really have enough time to craft and gather. During these times we feel it would be great for anyone to be able to easily change to the fisherman class, head to a nearby pond and start fishing.

    Although there will be a few skills you can use when fishing, it's been designed so they're not absolutely necessary, allowing players to relax and enjoy the experience if they choose to do so. Also, we plan on having different types and sizes of fish depending on the area and water temperature.

    Ok that's great for someone who wants to casually fish but it just once again seems they are dumbing down fishing overall. Not really sure I get this:

    "I think in an MMO world there are a lot of times where you just want to chat with people, you are waiting on friends, or you don’t really have enough time to craft and gather. During these times we feel it would be great for anyone to be able to easily change to the fisherman class, head to a nearby pond and start fishing."

    So if they don't have time to do bot or mining or craft they have time to equip a rod and travel to a fishing spot and who exactly is going to do that. "hmm you know what I don't wanna level up this other stuff so I'm gonna bust out my rod and go fishing for the hell of it so I can chat and watch tv or whatever"

    Ok.. I get it someone will want to just chill out and enjoy the view.. that's great then for this but what about the rest of us?

    I guess what I'm asking is.. is there going to be a serious side to fishing because this isn't it and this is not what I want in fishing.. at all. I keep reading these updates and basically what I see is what Yoshi wants and what Yoshi thinks is best for fishing.

    Can someone point me to the player poll Yoshi took that says fishing should be the equivalent of laying in bed talking on the phone.

    This is still my concern as well. The mindset that fishing should be the thing people do instead of standing/sitting idle on the steps in Ul'dah is depressing and insulting. I'm a touch more hopeful than before, since temperature of the water might be something interesting, but... yeah. We'll see I guess.

    It does feel like he's completely ignoring the player poll he did though. We wanted more content. Not the complete gutting of the class.

    Orophin, it was posted in the Live Letter V thread. It's been fully translated, and that was one of the questions.
