If you live in a major city with over a million people and played pokemon go when it came out and it was the closest we've ever been to world peace, you're probably still playing this game.

If you live in Bumfuck, Egypt with a population of 400 like me, you probably tried this game out for a bit when you vacationed to a big city, had fun, and then never touched it again. It's not meant for us.

You should really only be playing this game if you like collecting pokemon or shinies. Battling sucks, but raids and community days are fun despite the awful monetization that get worse and worse each year.

This game is going to get shut down in like 7 years after an executive goes too far milking the game, mark my words.

It is what it is.

It was a global phenomenon. Most people uninstalled by now.

Some of us still login every now again.

Couldn't rate it lower. It is iconic.

I reinstalled this recently after previously having a little bash at launch when I had awful data package which made the game practically unusable

[~9 days]
I visited a mate and his kid was playing this game; I offhandedly mentioned that I used to play it and the kid wanted to see my account so I reinstalled it. And here we are, a week and some change later. I have grown from Level 4 to Level 28. I'm blessed that I can access a Pokestop and Gym whilst inside my house; that admittedly helps progress quickly as I can play casually whilst watching TV etc. Also I now have 300GB data a month, plus I walk ~7km a day commuting to/from work which involves walking a couple Routes, and bypassing many Stops/Gyms etc. I struggle to do Curveballs at the moment, and I've not been able to do any Raids/Party yet, but we endure. I admittedly get frustrated with seeing the same 'mon everywhere with only the occasional new one. I have the Campfire app but not had much luck. Getting quite acquainted with PokeGenie and have a "Hundo" already, my 15/15/15 IV Chimchar. Last night I was standing in the pouring rain in the middle of a vacant park to enter my Marenie into a Showcase event. I guess I'm getting pretty invested, huh?

Joguei desde o momento que chegou no Brasil lá em 2016, num celular que nem meu era. Joguei depois muito quando tive um celular que rodava o jogo. E volta e meio me pego instalando e desinstalando o game.

É legal, tem seu charme, mas sei lá, eu não to dentro da comunidade de Pokémon, o que eu acho essencial pra aproveitar o jogo como os desenvolvedores pensaram, eu também não sou o maior fã da franquia, nunca joguei nenhum e só vi o anime na TV a mais de 15 anos.

Então, era isso. Jogo bacana, gráficos legais, gosto das mecânicas de captura e de batalha em ginásio, provavelmente eu reinstale mais umas vezes ao longo do tempo para dar uma olhada de vez em quando.
