True... fishing in a space game? It feels wrong.
no way, feels great. Having more stuff to do on the planets you go to is part of a space game I feel
We need planets where we can have even more fun stuff to do, like FIFA tournaments, and CoD matches. People like those too... maybe a casino too?
We do all of that in Galactic Hub space!
We do a variety of ball-based sports (not exactly soccer/football though), different PVP games (including some specifically designed to emulate old FPS games like CoD), plus both starship and exocraft racing. As well as a HUGE number of minigames - Shield Wrestling, Exo-Darts (launch your exocraft onto a dart board), Companion Racing, and tons of other games.

Yes, a casino too!

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not but like yes! imagine a planet and someone built a working casino. or a paintball arena fuck yes
I did! Only one type of game though, Clover, which is my pachinko / pinball hybrid created for NMS. I used to have one with 4 different games but the logic circuits broke and tbh the newer one is more fun to actually spend time at anyway.
It's called Caesarus's Palace Casino, after the Caesarus (and obviously Caesar's Palace Casino), which was the largest fauna ever discovered in NMS... and I found it! Sorry, I have to mention that every opportunity I get.

Why? I don't like fishing myself, but many other people do, and it doesn't really feel out of place to me, it's just an activity like any other.
I just dont find it convincing that in a far away future, in a space simulation created by a degrading super computer, people would still fish and especially that they would fish with fishing rods!
Sure it is enjoyable, for some, but i feel that there should be some sort of coherence to the theme of the game instead of simply adding element's that people find enjoyable across any game gengre.
