This is extremely exciting to see a game like this! I've bought many fishing games before but none offer a virtual reality experience. I want to buy this game. But first, before I do, I need to address some concerns I have after having reviewed the site, the YouTube videos, and the demo:
The game runs poorly on my HP laptop equipped with 2 GB. RAM, Intel Core2 Duo 1.66 GHz., Windows Vista Home Premium, Intel 945 Express video w/ latest drivers, DirectX 10. The mouse DRAGS even using the lowest-quality video settings in the game. The graphics really lag. My setup isn't the problem - I'm able to run other 3D graphic intensive games without a problem.
There is a lack of detailed system requirements. I want to know what is the minimum recommended configuration and the optimal recommended configuration (memory, OS, video card, DirectX, controllers, etc.).
The installer resembles something from the Windows 3.1 days. InstallShield would be better or even using a free alternative (they're out there).
Also the game has a beta-ish feel to it, and doesn't conform to how Windows apps should be installed. The use of modern Windows APIs should take care of this. For example, why default to "C:\Games\...", when you have modern operating systems like Vista and Windows 7 which have a default apps folder (usually "C:\Program Files"). Installing elsewhere could present permissions problems if not using an administrator account. User settings (save games, etc.) should be stored in the user folders (i.e. "C:\Users\my_name_here\AppData\Roaming\Pishtech\VR Sportfishing"). Again, use of modern Windows APIs would make this a non-issue.
More configuration options - particularly 3D video settings like "anti-aliasing", "triple buffering", etc. should be including in the options menu.
A game manual would be nice - preferably in PDF format. It should detail the controls, the options, the AI involved (tactics, lure selection, and so forth), and the VR support info.
I'm going to play around with the demo a little more - I realllllllllllllly want this to work better so I can make my purchase to support the game. I simply can't bring myself to do so right now though since it would be a waste of money. Please understand my perspective as an end user and one of many who have to watch every penny in these tough economic times.
