Unfortunately waiting for the game to come around didn't help. I don't have a new PC, however, the game ran better 2 years ago than it does now. Back then I enjoyed, but now it makes me dizzy. But what really makes me advice against buying this or any other from this publisher: they just announced Ultimate Fishing Simulator 3 (UFS3). Number 2 hadn't been finished, and they were working on the third one. How do we know that? Because as of today, June 19th, 2025, they already have a demo, for UFS3. Number 2 just got "released", on May 9th, 2025. Years waiting for the second one, years in Early access and they kick us in the nuts. Who in their right mind would buy this now with a third one in the making and especially with how bad this one is playing? Which means no sales, no support due to no money, game is dead. Listen you, whoever makes these decisions. It is no rocket science. COD, Madden, FC (previously FIFA) are made for idiots who don't care about paying for microtransactions on top of full price (every year); the companies behind those titles are the bad guys. The good guys are SCS, Expansive Worlds, the guys behind ETS2, ATS, COTW. Those games that have years and years, that have enjoyable play loops and that been supported by DLCs with well timed innovations. Question: in a niche genre like this, which of the two business models described above do you geniuses think are you more likely to be able to emulate?

So far the game seems good. Very realistic with the fishing equipment etc so if your a fisherman IRL then this game is for you. Some knowledge of how you actually fish would help hugely in this game as it is a Simulator but overall it is very good. Devs seem to be working hard on the game and fixing current bugs which is great so ignore the negative feedback as the game is a work in progress!

you can spend 45 minutes fighting a 100+lb fish that breaks your gear, or 10 seconds reeling in a fish that weighs 3 lbs, all with the exact same setup, there is no in between. physics are janky graphics are not an upgrade, it was barely worth the $3 i spent on the summer of teams sale

Game is worst than part one. First of all. One had more features and more fishing. Like fly fishing and ice fishing. In here, none of that. Plus the dumbest thing happened and it keeps happening over and over. I'll reel the fish all the way to me, then the prompt to hold right click to land the fish will pop up but then goes away and I can't reel in anymore. So I couldn't land the fish. So I left and won't be playing anymore. I'll stick to Fishing Planet. One, its got better mechanics and its free. I'll play part one for the fly fishing and ice fishing aspect.

The graphics are hideous. I genuinely thought this game came out in 2005 or something and the UI is bad too.

I was wrong 2 years ago. FS2 at the moment seems to have withstood The Angler COTW as the best fishing game. Casual players may want to steer clear. Those who enjoy fishing IRL, This is probably your best choice Although any Steam user who has touched a fish is part of a very exclusive club...

the game is not as fun as the first one because it has this issue where the fish literally just disappear, no tension or anything. please fix.

Played this game for a long time and went all the way through every map. The positives first: 1) Fish hook pretty quickly. 2) Maps are diverse and so are fish. 3) Error 404 additional reasons not found. On to the bad stuff: 1) Fish are VERY difficult to catch. Not the small stuff, those are fun and challenging. I fought a shark for an hour. 1 hour of my life before he swam all the way to the end of my line and I got fed up, turned my trim to 100% and broke him off. 2) The game isn't finished. End of story. The last map has a huge area of water surrounding an island. Around the island there are a lot of fish but away from it there's nothing. My friend and I boated for 10 minutes to the edge of the map and there were no fish after the 1 minute mark. 3) There are fish in the encyclopedia you cant catch. A blue marlin is listed in the encyclopedia but isn't located on any of the maps. The maps say what fish they have and multiple do not exist in the game. 4) Your house has a massive aquarium you can't use. Fish can only go in the aquarium if they're under 30 lbs or so, which is very few, and there's a HUGE aquarium taking up the center of your house that you can't put anything in. TLDR: I don't regret getting the game, I'm glad I only paid $7. If it's ever actually finished I'll amend this review. I did have fun, only because I played with a friend.

Multiplayer lacks of interaction, no benefit of playing it. Bugs. Unclear rules of tournament, some high level idi000t joining weight based tournament 30minutes before it ends just to ruin new players record. FK YOU BOLEE AND FK UR M0M

0/10 truly awful game Completely lacks the charm the original had. The only thing similar is the publisher of the game. Just to give you an idea on how much of a cash grab this is, thisg ame came out in may of 2025 and they already have a demo available for the UFS 3 despite having "DLC" planned for this game. Let me break this down for you with a pros v. cons. Pros You get to "fish"??? Cons Shitty graphics Worse optimization Sometimes when you pull in a fish, you don't even see it because the graphics break Shitty UI Terrible buying menu Awful inventory menu Shitty "licensed" lure textures Awful maps

Got this game on sale for like $2 thinking it didn't need to be very good to make it worth my while. Nearly 60 hours later, I have found myself obsessed with fishing. I never expected to find this much variety or fun in such a simple fishing game. The environments look great, the fish have a lot of variety and the mechanics feel smooth. While not on par with a high value AAA game, for what this is, it is quite entertaining. Have already roped my friends into playing as well. Would definitely recommend to anyone with even a passing interest in fishing.

I've played the first version which is highly enjoyable. This second version however is terrible in comparison and runs like garbage on my higher end PC. They really dropped the ball on this. Do yourself a favor and don't get it.

I tried to give it a fair shot but everything just made me want to play UFS 1 or Fishing Planet. Both these games are far better than this game. This game tries to implement stuff from other fishing games like a keep net but falls flat on it's face with a confusing UI, horrible graphics (they somehow made it looks worse than UFS1) and less realistic fish behaviors. Just play the first game or any of the free fishing sims out there they are leagues ahead of this game. The fishing mechanics are awful and confusing. I still can't figure out how to adjust drag as it's not explained in the tutorial and there isn't a binding for it. It may be somewhere buried in the UI but the UI is so awful I can not find the button if it is there. Other important note: upon exiting the game it states "Thank you for participating in the early access release" but the Steam page shows a full release and the dev page shows they are making a UFS 3. So what does this mean? Did they forget to remove the message? It seems more likely the devs have abandoned development of this game and are updating it just enough to keep Steam from saying they abandoned it. I tried to give this game a fair chance but I can't even get 1 hour into the game without wishing I was playing literally any other fishing game.

Graphics: Beautiful, especially the water, but distant objects look low quality with weather set to Noon Audio: Not too bad; some sound is repetitive however (the reel noise has very little variation) PC Requirements: Fast Game Size: 36.56 gigabytes as of writing this Difficulty: Easy to learn / Hard to master Grind: None; you can progress quite quickly Price: Worth buying if its on sale (goes 85% off) Bugs: A lot of tiny bugs, but nothing game breaking or annoying. Rating: 8/10 I do have a few complaints: how little content there is; but take this with a grain of salt since I haven't played Alaska or Delaware Bay and I am only level 31 (out of 40). The other thing is graphics; the game looks really bad on certain maps and has very bad antialiasing. finally, the fish move unrealistically, they seem to flick oddly fast left and right, and if you fling your mouse to pull them out of the water... they kinda just flip super unrealistically [spoiler]Review originally generated by https://vojtastruhar.github.io/steam-review-template, then shortened by me.[/spoiler]
