OT: i would have written “when i actually come across people on my walks in the park across the door” although there is no more interaction cause of it.

I do have to applaud one thing though, which is also a bit sad: Pets are finally seeing some more outside time! I see more people in the parks/woods now, probably bringing their pet with them as an excuse to go and catch pokemons. Your dog wont care ofcourse, whichever reason to go out is fine by him/her.

The sad part being that it took virtual pets for some people in order to give ‘attention’ to their own pets.

You can hatch eggs by moving around while playing Pokemon Go.  
To avoid people simply hopping on a car and going for a joy ride on the high way, the system will only accept a certain speed limit. The general consensus is somewhere less than 30 km/hr.

Was wondering why guild activity took a dive this week, and then I discovered the Gen 2 pokemon went live on map.  
Well… I guess I gotta go catch them all too 😅

when they finally realised what im asking about ofc they werent yellow so i left without capturing the gym 😛  
the faces they made gave me a smile for the day

Yeah I remember driving to abandoned parking lots to play Pokemon Go, just to see other cars pull up doing the same thing. lol good times.

I didn’t play very long though. PG is a burden if you live in small towns.

PoGo was total buttcheeks. They failed on too many fronts with that game. They almost had the world addicted in the first 3-4 weeks, but a few dumb moves over a couple weeks and 90% of the people I knew had stopped playing it. Went from like half of the town out and about on the weekends for catching pokemon to maybe 5% of the town in a matter of two weeks. My wife noticed it too.

It was fun for about a month, but they were too busy trying to launch it in every country, removing features, and disabling tracking apps INSTEAD of adding live pvp, trading, shiny pokemon, or legendaries like zapdos or mew, all features I know my group was crying for. SMH PoGo is one of the biggest fails ever.

Sure, they will keep the 1-2 million people playing it for a while, but when they start releasing those weird new gen pokemon, I have a feeling even more people will drop the game. Just like the game boy games, red and blue were good, gold and silver were cool, but kind of the same, and any games after that were just getting old, people got sick of it.

true, i still keep my 1\* gogle play store review with a lot of complains in for not giving anything at small villages and unpopulated zones like forests etc, i really hoped i would have more motivation to walk when i had that vacation but pokego proven useless for that case
