(*25*)Ask any digital farmer what they love to do once they’re not planting seeds or harvesting crops, and the reply is inevitably: “fishing.” From Stardew Valley to Valheim and every part in between, there is a cardinal rule in terms of videogames: if you can plant a crop, you can catch a fish. That is precisely how video games needs to be.
(*25*)(Word: there’s a sole holdout who doesn’t subscribe to this philosophy, PC Gamer’s personal Lauren Morton, who loves farming however hates fishing. However she’s not right here at the moment so how is she gonna cease me from penning this? She will be able to’t! Ha ha ha ha.)(*25*)So in the end, Farming Simulator 25 is getting a fishing enlargement, known as Highlands Fishing. And since Farming Simulator gonna Farming Simulator, you won’t be shocked to be taught you will not simply be catching fish, you’ll be rising them from scratch on your farm. It is known as aquaculture (apparently).
(*25*)In a presentation main as much as Farm Con 25, the devs from Giants laid out the broad strokes of the enlargement (beginning at about 9:00 into this video). On a brand new map impressed by Scotland, you’ll have the ability to construct a farm full with massive tanks for elevating child fish en masse. Feed ’em with truckloads of no matter the hell it’s fish eat, watch ’em develop, then transport them to the docks, load them into a ship, and launch them into the ocean the place they will develop even bigger.
(*25*)As for catching these fish you most likely spent a pair million {dollars} elevating, there’s two methods to do it: by boat, as you would in a industrial fishing operation, or with a rod and reel, if you wish to loosen up and vibe with the Scottish surroundings. That is the half I am wanting ahead to.
(*25*)It is not simply fish in the enlargement: there are additionally highland cattle. And onions. However c’mon, you suppose onions are gonna get me labored up? We’re all right here for the fish (aside from Lauren).
(*25*)Talking of which, it is a bit of odd that neither the video nor the expansion’s Steam page really present anybody, y’know… fishing? That would appear like one thing you’d embrace in the lead as much as your fishing enlargement. There is a bit of paintings displaying a man casting a fishing line off a bridge, however I am curious to see the way it actually works in-game.
(*25*)Farming Simulator’s Highlands Fishing enlargement is coming in November. It prices $30, or $25 if you preorder.
