Just a minor thing, but it sort of bugs me, it sort of doesn't make any sense that cooked fish are worth more than raw ones when selling them. I mean:
Gameplay wise: The money reward is meant to reflect in game time spent on gaining the resource, and I get that cooking a fish takes a little more time. But all fish in barrels and chests are cooked, and while raw fish can be cooked, cooked ones can't be "rawed". So while every raw fish was caught by the pirate handing it in, not all cooked fish were, so on average, raw fish had more actual gameplay time put into them. Certainly, when fishing stopping to cook expensive fish isn't really that much more of an effort, its just a little annoying.
Interaction wise: Cooked fish are worth more healing, raw ones are worth more money, so cooking a fish is a minor choice about how you're playing and what you're doing.
Background wise: The Hunter's Call representatives are by and large chefs. They're standing around big cooking pots. How many chefs prefer to buy cooked fish over raw ones? If you could sell fish to anyone, sure, but the Hunter's Call should want them fresh and ready to prepare for their stew or whatever.
Like I say, its not a big deal, but every time I sell a fish I just grabbed out of a barrel and make more money than one I wrestled out of a stormy sea, it just sits oddly is all.
Shouldn't raw fish be worth more than cooked ones?

Nobody really eats Raw food, it worthless and easy to come by. While cooked is worth more eaten. So why not sell?

Not all fish. Some are burned and those barrels you find are suppose to represent someone storing them. You found and stole them :p
I 100% agree. It never made sense to me. Especially seeing all the different types of fish and once you cook it the colors are gone and the type of the specific species doesn’t really matter anymore. It’s always seemed weird to me.
Realism would say that the fisherman catches the fish and sells it raw. The chefs buy the raw fish and sell it cooked. It seems strange to me that I’m both fisherman and chef for hunter’s call folk. They’re just hungry hippos, I guess.As thread necro (reviving of old topics) is not permitted as per forum rules, we will go ahead and drop anchor on this here. Thank you.
