Very good game. Looks great, music is nice, short animations are funny, catching fish is fun and relaxing. The game keeps throwing new things at you at a steady pace, but a lot of it isn't required for the story to progress, giving you a lot of freedom during your playthrough. Well worth the money, I'm still in my first playthrough, even though I already completed the main story a while back. There are so many optional things to do and complete. And just swimming around is pretty relaxing.
Terriblemente entretenido. Muy buena la mezcla y balance de looteo tranquilo, administrar un restaurante y boss fights. 10/10
三年过去了 我主线通关两次 每次都他妈被你那猪脑开发者设计的巧死小游戏玩得恶心红温。主线又臭又长,纯通马桶,多数解密和boss毫无提示,最后第六章要我单人玩家同时操控两个角色竞速解密????????你把玩家当人了吗? 最后一句好言相劝开发者:玩家的体验才是第一位,我玩潜水员戴夫是为了休闲观光。你的主线的小游戏根本不是我想玩的,但是你为什么塞了这么多折磨玩家的内容在主线呢?不玩你那又臭又长的主线,我甚至体验不了完整的游戏。而且里面有大量的没有提示的boss关卡,让我不得不找攻略。这让我的潜水之旅变得非常差劲和恶心。如果你真的想做一个玩家喜欢的,请重视玩家的体验,没必要为了填充内容而做游戏。 Final piece of friendly advice for the developers: The player experience comes first. I play Dave the Diver for relaxation and sightseeing. The mini-games in your main story are not what I want to play at all, so why have you crammed so much torturous content into the main storyline? If I don't play that overly long and tedious main quest, I can't even experience the full game. And there are plenty of boss stages with no hints, forcing me to look up guides. This makes my diving journey extremely unpleasant and frustrating. If you truly want to make a game that players will love, please prioritize the player experience—there's no need to pad out the game just for the sake of filling content.

Even Potato Laptop can play this masterpiece, include games within the game
Esse jogo é maravilhoso, todos os seres desse mundo precisam jogar esse jogo. Todos os detalhes são perfeitos, até as missões secundárias são legais de fazer. Essa expansão na jungle ta FODA
The game developers have so little faith in their core gameplay loop that it takes a back seat to constant minigames and distractions. The plot grinds to a halt after a few hours and is instead replaced by tedious fetch quests and various tasks that have nothing to do with diving or your restaurant.
As much as I did love the first 10 or so hours, I cannot say the same for the next 10. Honestly at it's core this is a great game and, if you are like me and were recommended this because of Dredge it is not a bad pick up. However, there is a glaring difference between these two. Dredge really hones in the core mechanics and makes little adjustments to it overtime. Dave the Diver adds so many mechanics, and leaves the main gameplay rather bare bones. I did get overwheled by the many farms you end up having, the VIP mini games which replaced the VIP customers. The main story has plenty of mini games to do as well. They are all fine on their own, but at some point they just ruin the overall experience. Which I really hate to say, because this game is so good at it's core but these mini games ruin that. I think this focus on mini games becomes even more obvious in the DLC, which I abstained from buying because I cannot image how it can be worse than the main game. I will have a hard time recommending this to anybody really, unless you really don't mind being overwheled by a lot of things.
Muito divertido, virou um dos meu jogos favoritos, vale a pena platinar!
