Ayant expérimenté la pêche dans le Far Cry 5 avec un amusement certain, j'avise cet Euro Fishing dans le Game Pass entre autres curiositésAyant expérimenté la pêche dans le Far Cry 5 avec un amusement certain, j'avise cet Euro Fishing dans le Game Pass entre autres curiosités plus ou moins curieuses bien sûr... Et alors, ni une ni deux, j'en prends pour un mois pour tester ça (entre autres daubes potentielles ou providentielles -bien entendu- de la liste assez mouvante du GP proposé par Microsoft).Et là... c'est le drame. Euro Fishing est en fait une grosse merdasse défraîchie aussi avariée que la poiscaille qu'elle veut essayer de nous fourguer. Malgré la prise en charge Xbox One X Enhanced, le jeu est moche, et en plus d'être moche, il est mal fait : la ligne est mal faite, le lancer est mal fait, mal modélisé, mal animé, le personnage bouge comme un zombi et tutti quanti... Tout est mal fait là-dedans, y compris les entraînements dont la moitié sont mélangés à de l'anglais.En outre, on sent -et cela est désagréable- que le jeu a été pensé avant tout pour le multi-joueurs : non seulement la partie solo se limite à la "pêche libre" abandonnée à son triste sort mais en plus dès le début, le jeu tente de nous hameçonner sur son site de merde avec inscription par email et tout ça... juste pour aller jouer avec des gens et nous faire payer l'abonnement Gold requis évidemment.Pour autant qu'il y ait des gens qui jouent à ce truc pourri. Et c'est rapidement technique pour se la jouer "simulation" et encore... Alors finalement, tu pointes ou tu tires ? moi, les poissons je les pêche à la pétanque : une bonne boule sur la gueule, le cong, il voit rien venir !

Seeing as this is the onlyThe Xbox 360 had a pretty good selection of fishing games; one of my favourites being Bass Pro Shops: The Strike. Seeing as this is the only fishing game available on the Xbox One console, and that this game was on special for $9.99, I had to pick it up.What we get here is a realistic fishing game, not so much a simulation though. European fishing is different than American fishing in that you're allowed using three fishing rods at once. There are no boats in this game either, the lakes are very small. You can modify and customize your tackle box before fishing, and then you walk around until you find a desired location, and from there get your fish-on. There's a terrific tutorial that gives you the very basics of the game, with some pretty good voice acting too. I was legitimately excited to start fishing on my own. Not before long, you're fishing on your own and competing in tournaments. These can be quite enjoyable to play, and definitely challenging. Selecting which different types of baits, hooks, areas of the lake, etc... All of these play a major factor in the game. It's quite easy to catch a random fish, but it's difficult to catch a specific fish and stay consistent.A few things REALLY disappointed me in the game though. Graphically, this game on consoles is ugly to look at. Sure, the environments can be lush with greenery, and at times the game can look beautiful, but the framerate is locked at 30fps, and at times actually lowers. There's also a LOT of pop-in and visual glitches. Another thing is the water itself. The water is very basic, and looks last gen (even The Strike on Xbox 360 had better looking water effects). Hardly any reflections, the water's very muddy/murky, not very detailed, there's a complete lack of water physics, etc. Seeing as this is a fishing game, I expected much, much more. The fish are rendered well, but given that this is an Xbox One title, I would've liked to see a bit more detail... Some of the textures are very low. The multiplayer experience from what I've played can be extremely laggy too. Walking from one location to another is just a series of teleporting.Overall though, seeing as this is the only fishing game on Xbox One, I'd recommend it to any fishers/fishing-game fans. The gameplay is terrific, it it has some major rough edges.

Great game, lost of fun if you are into the whole fishing thing like I am. Great visual graphics and sounds. Just a few things I wouldGreat game, lost of fun if you are into the whole fishing thing like I am. Great visual graphics and sounds. Just a few things I would add/change to make it a more immersive experience. First I would add a wider variety of fish and locations. Also when you pick your Peg to fish from it has several items that that can not be used. I think it would be great to be able to sit down in the chair and the tackle box should let you change your gear to anything you bought, instead of going out to the main screen and having to only pick three hooks, bait, ect. All in all the game it's self is a lot of fun.
