A clean UI, easy new player experience, considerable degree of replayability, built-in multiplayer and VR support... there's nothing to criticize about this game.

Lastly, it includes functional multiplayer dedicated servers which do have people on them from time to time but I'd say this feature is best if you have other friends that like fishing sims.
