  • story
    30 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story and narrative elements are largely criticized for being underdeveloped and confusing, with players often feeling lost due to unclear quest objectives and poor navigation. While there are numerous quests and crafting opportunities, many players find the missions repetitive and frustrating, particularly for newcomers who struggle to progress. Overall, the lack of a cohesive and engaging storyline detracts from the gameplay experience, making it feel more like a grind than an adventure.

    • “Although missions, challenges, etc. offer valuable tiered components for rods themselves, such components could be found along rare catches anywhere across the map, with appropriate likelihood of said catches being attained.”
    • “The quests are good as well but they also do need some work because a lot are hard to do when you first start, but that can be worked on.”
    • “Has a quest line to follow and tons of stuff to buy and craft.”
    • “The game also lacks a story or narrative, which can make it feel repetitive after extended play sessions.”
    • “Created a 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
    24 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

However, players criticize the lack of variety and depth beyond fishing, as well as insufficient instructions and clarity regarding mechanics, which can lead to confusion.

    • “The game also features a variety of fishing techniques, such as spinning and float fishing, which adds depth to the gameplay.”
    • “Different fish species are more active during certain times of the day or in certain weather conditions, adding a layer of strategy to the gameplay.”
    • “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.”
