Fishing is the longest mechanic to gather resources in the game, it feels too long having to wait 10 seconds or so just to catch a fish, it feels like you are wasting your time, so the shorter it is the better. Being able to catch a fish 4-6 seconds after you use your fishing rod would feel 100 times better.
This is a mechanic that a lot of games have and it’s always the worst.
I don’t mind the duration, it’s relaxing.
What I do mind is only getting a single fish on a few rare timegated pools when the lv20+ hp-restoring food recipes require often 2 fish per craft.
Also, anyone else have an issue with fishing rod durability not flagging up in yellow icon in the lower right corner like other tools?
My rod broke and I never recall noticing a bright yellow low durability warning icon like for other tools on the right lower corner.
