  • story
    60 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story and narrative elements are largely criticized for being underdeveloped and lacking clarity, leading to a repetitive experience for players. Many users express frustration with the quest system, noting that missions often lack clear objectives and guidance, making it difficult for new players to progress. While there are some enjoyable aspects to the quests and crafting, the overall storytelling and quest design need significant improvement to enhance player engagement.

    • “The game also lacks a story or narrative, which can make it feel repetitive after extended play sessions.”
    • “Created character, logged in, picked up a quest (no indication of where to do it), all the locations are locked up, no other quests around, the quest board is equally as useless.”
    • “Some of the quests will leave you scratching your head so much on how to accomplish them that you will give up on them.”
  • gameplay
    48 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay of Atom Fishing II features solid core fishing mechanics, including various techniques and a dynamic day-night cycle that adds strategic depth. However, players criticize the lack of variety and clear instructions, leading to confusion and a sense of monotony.

    • “One of the downsides of Atom Fishing II is its lack of variety in gameplay.”
    • “While the fishing mechanics are well-implemented, there is not much else to do in the game besides catching fish.”
    • “Complete lack of info about mechanics, items, gear, shops, where to find/farm and what, and unless you are tipped off by someone from the game about the more specific fish - exact spots, depth, gear, time of day, bait - you will never catch one.”
  • graphics
    18 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    • “This grinding isn't fun.”
    • “It can get grindy.”
    • “So it's an MMO and there is going to be a bit of grinding... but you can't even actually leave the starter building to go outside into the world before a completely uncalled for amount of quests are completed in a 10x10 area next to a broken bridge.”
