Welcome to Gaia! ::


I think it's pretty much clear to the gaians who've stayed on here longer than a few months that fishing is coming. This is all fine and dandy, and the thought of that alone excites me to no end. But I still have the following questions still gnawing at my brain, and hopefully would like to have a mod or admin or two's feedback on this, as well as other users who have the same interests.

1.How much will a fishing pole cost? Hopefully it will be affordablr to all gaians so that we can all have fun with this event, whether we're rich or poor as dirt. 3nodding

2.Will we need a fishing license of some sort? And if so, how often would this license need to be renewed, and at what cost?

3.How many different kinds of fish will there be? Personally, I hope for a diverse and wide range of my finny friends, and am just praying goldfish will be one of the catchable species.

4.Will some fish be more difficult to catch than others, or have different tastes in bait? It was hinted at there was going to be a bait shop... eek

5.What will we be able to do with our fish after we catch them? I have heard from some people that we may be able to sell them, but will there be an option that allows us to keep a favorite fish as a pet? I think many gaians would LOVE this idea to be incorporated with the upcoming gaia house plan.

6.How many different kinds of bait will there be? Will there be some kinds you can't buy but instead must scavenge for yourself? Will some baits be more effective than others?

I heard that after fishing a certain number of foshes you get a fish hat or something like that.

And maybe apart of buying a rod, we could buy a boat too.
@____@ wow, good luck with getting answers to all those 3nodding I am sure we all wanna know whee
Eh those sound like the kinda questions you find out for yourself once it's out. xp Well a few of em ...
unfortunitly everything you hear is speculation unless it can be tracked to a post made by an admin, and as such there is little to no point in asking about the fishing untill it is released
Chances are that we aren't getting any difinitive answers until fishing is actually here.They can make it only so interactive until the whole thing gets too big and Gaia lags to hell. I'd be happy with simple fishing and selling.
Hmm, that would be cool. I wonder, if they do let you keep the fish as pets, can you get a fish tank? However it comes out, I'm excited! biggrin
And about the fishing licence, do you think it will be like the trading passes in the bank, will you have to buy it there?
I'd like to know how the actual fishing works ... something like the way they do it in Breath of Fire 3 (if you've ever played it) Ya think?

I'm excited about all this too...
Love to know the answers but like stated we probably wont find out till it's out...

That would be too sophisticated to hope for, I think. The BoF fishing mini-games are practically full-featured videogames in their own right.

xd (Would kill for the fishing to turn out like that, and at simplest, hopes it doesn't turn out like Neopet's game Pick Your own.)
That would be too awesome.. getting a little off topic, but did you ever try the second Dark Cloud game for PS2? It got an award as 2003's PS2 best game of the year on www.gamespot.com

Aww too bad, I love the fishing in that game. xd How do you think it'll work then?
This sounds interesting
you forgot one big question. will we be able to keep the little fishies as pets? maybe have a fish tank to snaz up our gaian homes.

i kind figured it would start out like the fishing on animal crossing. nice and simple, but still very addictive.

...but i really don't think you are going to get any answers.

Hey, that's being too darn pessimistic for my tastes, and if you'll check the above posts, where I asked what could be done with the fish upon catching, the fish as pets issue HAS been tapped into.
