49Call of the Wild: The Angler - A NEW Review - Part 2!
From the creators of theHunter: Call of the Wild comes a genre-defying fishing experience! Explore a vast open world in search of the perfect fishing spot. Ride the waters on your own or with friends as you embark on the journey to become a master angler.
In my last review, I was forced to give a negative review of the game as it stood at that time. Then, I found out that on October 31, 2022, The Angler had initiated as MAJOR Update to the game called "The Challenger Update". According to its write-up, the developers for the game had taken direct inspiration from the community feedback they had received and implemented a number of new features, improvements and other fixes to the game. Upon learning this, I decided that I should give the game a second chance, and give it another thorough review. The same type of thing had happened with the original theHunter: Call of the Wild, so it was definitely worth another look!
In this second part of my new review, I have decided that I would first check to see if any changes have been made to the actual fishing mechanics. The best way to do this is to take part in another of the fishing tutorials, that of "Catch a Mountain Whitefish".
I continue to see improvements in the overall fishing mechanics. However, I still have a few issues such as:
- The mission requires you fish at night, but the time of day in the game seems random. If there is a way to advance time, I have not seen it, however someone seemed to be moving daytime to night. How are they doing this?
- I spent 45 minutes recording, plus an additional 3 hours offscreen trying to catch a Mountain Whitefish as instructed. I caught several other species, but no Mountain Whitefish. What am I missing?
- Is there some type of light source for night fishing? Also, is there any way to zoom into your bobber so you can see it better? I am 56 years old and my vision is terrible!
Despite these issues, I am still leaning more on the side of liking this game more than not. It does feel like it has potential, but it either needs better tutorials, or it needs to be mor intuitive!
