in b4 diablo 3 and the absolute shyt it was at launch and for a good year yet people still stayed...
I love Diablo 3 lol. Played it on console though so they had ironed afford out by then. But as awesome as it is, I could see how people would put up with a bit of shyt to play it.

And I don't care about blizzard. I don't play overwatch or warcraft

It's an ingenious concept combined with a top brand.

Such a pairing is rare these days so I'll give them their props.

Ingress is TRASH though :dead:

I installed it to find out where Pokemon spawn and the whole theme is corny secret agent shyt :skip:

If Pokemon's presentation was anything like Ingress no one would still be playing it :martin:

It doesnt succeed at being a good game.
Which is why I question it's longevity. How long are people gonna play a mediocre game because of the license? If this was called Ingress 2 I'm willing to bet it would be nowhere near as popular.

REALLY? :ohhh:

Nah but seriously, stop trying to think about how it functions as a "game" but as an app. It's like basically a Pokedex/real life Pokemon hunt app with some lite game aspects to it. The fun is in going places, getting stuff, finding pokemon and other stuff. It's nostalgia mixed with practical technology to allow an almost true to life Pokemon hunt.

This isn't Pokemon Red/Blue for phones.
