    Who thought up the level 60 fishing system?

    Who thought up the level 60 fishing system? Cause it is horrible, I gotten my fisher to level 60 and the fish I decided I wanted to try to catch seems to only appear during a small window which is only like 5 minutes long only appears once an hour (RL time) and if it like the rest of fishing you might not even get the fish you want. Resulting in having to wait another hour before trying again. Even pre-HW fishing was the worst of the 3 gathers and I see nothing has changed.

    I see nothing wrong with it. If you don't like it... Don't fish.

    Fishing isn't supposed to be easy, it's all RNG. Also the hour wait is no different than timed nodes with BTN and MNR. The only difference is our catches are worth more because of RNG. Also our finds are more rewarding IMO ( in terms of emotion not gil ). I've never been happy to find a timed node lol. I am however happy when I catch a rare fish!

    I like it just the way it is.

    I don't really mind the "timed" fish so much, I more dislike the ones that needs a certain weather.

    Also, the hour wait for fishers and the other two gatherers are very different, as a miner or botanist you know that you will get something for your hour of waiting, as a fisher it might be several days of waiting, repeatedly hitting that timezone and not getting the fish. I doubt miners or botanists would like it very much if their nodes were empty or contained something completely useless most of the times they popped.
