At long last, fishing will finally come to RuneScape: Dragonwilds tomorrow, so I'll wave goodbye to my other skills now

RuneScape doesn't feel like RuneScape without the ability to spend hours of your life fishing. In fact, levelling that essential skill is a quintessential part of the experience, so when RuneScape: Dragonwilds released with no fishing element—I can't lie—I was incredibly disappointed. Fortunately, we don't have much longer to wait, and it has been revealed that fishing will come to Ashenfall on April 21.

A trailer shared to the official Dragonwilds YouTube channel shows what to expect from the skill, as well as featuring a pretty jolly remix of Sea Shanty 2 in the background, and it's exactly what I had hoped for. I mean, there are only so many ways you can really imagine fishing in a survival game, but it still ticks those boxes. You and your friends will be able to gather around ponds and pools across the world, cast your line, and spend all your waking moments fishing—as Jagex always intended. What more could you want?
