Graphics are great, the fish look amazing. The fishing mechanics are solid, but one of the things that really bothered me in the micromanagement hell of the inventory. I didn’t truly feel it until I started upgrading my boat, and building company boxes for the Iron Rig. Here’s my experience on the 4 areas:

Didn’t like how fast the threat was neutralized in Stellar Basin. Fun fact, I thought that giant octopus/squid thing responds to fast movement. So I tried so move as slowly as I can, still I couldn’t get inside, but it was a nice interaction. The swamp unfortunately has no danger whatsoever, aside from the mind suckers which can be avoided very easily, and it was the first time I fished at night with minimal consequence. Speaking of threats the Gale Rock threat was amazing, you never get rid of it, it kept chasing me when I got back to do the Iron Rig DLC. Devil’s Spine is absolutely great. The vibe, the maze like layout, people complained it was too short, I visited Stellar Basin before the swamp and broke the sequence. I still love lava land. Now the DLCs: The Iron Rig really felt like “Hey you know how there are so many inconvenient things about this game? Here’s a DLC to fix all of that”. The Iron Rig has this material harvester which would have been so, so useful when I was upgrading my boat in the early game. By the end materials have no use whatsoever. Visually the Ice DLC was good, I just didn’t like how my fish kept rotting even though I was in a snowy place. Having the Icebreaker was great, and the narwhal almost didn’t pose any threat. >I think if the world got pulled more into your descent it would make it more impactful Yeah which is a thing that we the Iron Rig kinda attempts and it was really nice. Oil and dark ooze spreading everywhere, I cleaned some of it in the areas that I frequent regularly. Also I’m still bothered by that Scientist who jumps overboard and no one reacts to it. You can’t even tell anyone about it. “Like yeah we had a scientist, the scientist was a distraction, the scientist is gone now 💀” ___

I guess I’d give it a 6/7 out of 10 too.>
