Hello everyone and welcome to pros and
0:02
cons of the video game cast and chill on
0:06
not know mom I'm gaming. These are short
0:09
videos featuring gameplay clips or
0:10
screenshots so as not to shoot too much
0:12
in the spoiler department. Links to this
0:14
review are in the description below. Let
0:16
the reviewing begin. Pros. Idle mode.
0:21
Honestly, I've never been a fan of idle
0:23
games. Although I know they can be fun
0:25
for people who are doing other things
0:27
and don't technically have time to game,
0:30
I just personally can't stand to have a
0:32
game open that I don't really do
0:33
anything with, and I can't boot up
0:35
another game in the process. It was a
0:38
bit weird for the game to take
0:39
initiative after a moment of doing
0:41
nothing, but you can go into settings
0:43
and change when idle mode turns on or
0:45
just turn it off. When idle fishing is
0:48
happening, the fish sell for cheaper
0:50
than full price. I did go into idle mode
0:53
before going to sleep and after around 8
0:55
hours I ended up with 6k. So hey, it
0:59
works when you've got the downtime. You
1:02
get a pet companion and you can pet them
1:04
too, of course. As you go back and forth
1:07
on the water, sometimes your pet will
1:09
vocalize when there's a good amount of
1:10
fish below. They'll even look down into
1:12
the water. I'm not sure they vocalize
1:15
for legendaries, though. Beautiful
1:19
Every place you go to looks so nice. And
1:22
there's four different time frames that
1:24
you can either switch to manually or
1:26
it'll happen on its own. Sunrise,
1:28
sunset, day, and night. Depending on the
1:31
time of day, you might see wildlife in
1:33
some of the environments and places you
1:34
visit. Bears catching fish, seals
1:37
hanging out on rocks, and the like. You
1:40
learn about many fish, including the
1:43
types of rods and lines that are best
1:44
used to catch them with. And like with
1:46
fishing in real life, you sometimes need
1:48
patience on either trying to get a bite
1:51
or the reeling in process. My 500 lb
1:55
legendary took so long to reel in, and
1:58
the line snapped at some point, so I had
2:00
to try to reel it in a second time. But
2:03
really, I like that you get bits of
2:04
information of the fish you catch. Cons:
2:08
Catches rely more on audio cues than
2:10
visual. Not to say that you can't
2:13
clearly see when you need to stop
2:14
reeling and let the line slack in. I
2:16
just wish that maybe they could change
2:18
the line color to indicate its strain.
2:20
Then again, not adding that in gives it
2:22
a bit more of a realistic feel. Not all
2:26
legendaries are wall trophies. After
2:29
seeing my first legendary on the wall at
2:30
the shop, I was disappointed to realize
2:32
that aside from one other legendary fish
2:34
in the future, not all of them are up
2:36
for showcasing. I would have liked an
2:38
ability to switch the wall trophy out
2:40
with another, but alas, you can't.
2:44
And that's the end of a pros and cons
2:45
review of Casten Chill. And if you're
2:49
interested in a longer podcast review of
2:50
this game, there's another link in the
2:53
description where you can vote for it.
2:55
Thanks for watching everyone, and don't
2:56
get in too much trouble when you say,
2:58
"Not now, Mom. I'm gaming.
