Should we ban Pokemon Go?
Think about all of the people who've died because of it.
#BanAssaultPokemon
>>80970461
No, natural selection at it's finest.
No, we should thank Nintendo for handing out Darwin awards so generously
Reminder that this game had literally no buildup or hype prior to its release. It just came out of nowhere and started trending all over the media the day it released because the Government uses it to have you photograph the inside of buildings
It's the phones fault. These assault phones can even have apps attached to them to make them more deadly. Think of the children.

No, fuck you, the hype was real when the announcement trailer came out. Tumblr has been shitting themselves over it for months, and it's literally nothing.
>>80970461
This really makes up for quite a bit of the FBI/CIA alphabet spying from it, clears the gene pool a bit.
>>80970666
>government needs photographs of inside buildings
Its literally just a cashgrab you damn nutter
The reason it got so much hype is that its the first game of its kind, using augmented reality and google maps in such a way that pretty much everyone finds novel, even if they aren't a 26 yo neckbeard pokefan
I think it's a good thing. Today i saw 2 kids on bikes catching pokemon. It tricks kids to go outside and get some exercise, which is good.

>>80970666
Why wouldn't they just do this with people opening their regular camera app...why wait until some random Pokemon game.

You sure are one dumb nigger if you think Pokémon doesn't get attention in the world. Pokémon as already popular as fuck in the 90's, then the video games started coming out.
All every pokémon player ever wanted was real life pokémon and this is the closest they can get. Of course it's going to be popular.
>>80971168

Fucking normies having fun outside I hope they all die
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>80970666
>this game had literally no buildup or hype prior to its release
Yeah a decade of successful games that have been like crack to three genrations of kids is zero buildup.
Dozens of seasons of a TV show.
Several movies.
Cardgames, collectibles, enough merch to keep Nintendo afloat despite shitting the bed for several generations of consoles.
It's a real mystery that it's popular.

That's just evolution and natural selection.

While all of what you say is true for the Pokemon universe, the actual Pokemon GO game did in fact receive very little advertisement and anticipation leading up to its release.

Except for, you know, being mentioned and advertised at the largest gaming convention the last two times it was held.
>>80972630

You idiots don't realize that the augmented reality function is optional, do you? And even if you don't trust them not to use your camera in the background, pretty much all newer Android phones have Android 6.0, which requires apps to request access to things like the camera, which the user can choose to block.
If that's not enough proof for you, just take a look at the app's data usage. It's so minimal (a few MBs per hour) that it's more or less impossible that the game is uploading any videos or images being captured in-game.
And lastly, if the game was intended to get scans of the inside of your house, why does it largely encourage users to play outside? In fact, most of the time it's downright impossible to catch or accomplish anything indoors.
You assholes really want to assume anything popular is out to get you, but if you just look at the facts it becomes obvious that that's not the case this time.

Because it is me :^)
Am I really an autist for calling fags faggots?
Ignorantfag here,
Can you actually lure/bait people to walk down a cliff in Pokemon Go? Like, could this be a thing?
Or maybe like place an actual landmine next to a spot with a rare pokemon and leave it there?
I could think of hundreds of situations where this could develop into being something fucking brutal. People are always thinking of ways to make people do or go somewhere they want them to go, Pokemon Go could be just that.
>>80970666
THIS.
>the guy who oversaw the creation DID start a company called Keyhole Inc that received $37million a year from the CIA, that company was bought up by Google
Fuck all of the shills in this thread. We all know why this game added 10 billion to Nintendo's market cap. If you think it's just a harmless app or "cash grab", you're out of your fucking mind.

It's just a stupid game, let them enjoy it why do you even care?
I don't even own a smartphone, I don't get the point of this game but if people enjoy it who cares? It's better to be playing this then out smoking drugs or something.
>>80970461
The game has a big honking warning to watch where your going. It's literally the second thing you see when you start the app.
>>80971168
>the first of its kind
Where do you think the "Pokestops" came from? It's recycling from Ingress

BAN it? We need 100 more just like it! Social Darwinism at work, folks!
Saw the first Pokemon Go players on tuesday. First they were jumping about an empty bush, then they went into the street without checking for traffic first.
I think Pokemon Go is a wonderful means to implement Darwinian selection.
>>80974758
How would that even be possible unless someone is blind and can't see the cliff.
But with the way people have their noses stuck in their dumb phones I wouldn't be surprised
>>80974310

If you have data on your phone that you don't want anyone seeing then you're not responsible enough to own said data.

>>80974868
>smoking drugs or something
Holy shit, leaf. You are a true retard.
My point is, you do not/shouldn't need a phone app club to go outside or socialize, especially when you are in college.
>>80974326
>its okay because you can go out of your way to block the spying
Way to miss the point
>>80975413
You shouldn't need sports clubs, you shouldn't need you know what you shouldn't need anything at all. Just go outside your house and talk.
Dude you're autistic fuck off, it's just a bunch of people who share an interest who said hey let's start a club and have meet ups. How do you know they don't leave the house besides that?
You basement dwellers are so retarded.
>>80974949
>But with the way people have their noses stuck in their dumb phones I wouldn't be surprised
You just explained how.
They are so immersed into their game that they don't see where they're going. Also it's fairly hard to notice a cliff, I bet many Pokemon players have stumbled on a curb already - a cliff is not much different. A cliff doesn't make any sound or protrude out of the ground, it's hard to spot if you're looking down at your feet. And it takes only one step to fall down.

That ad made me kind of want a new pokemon movie, but Go is a shit app. Hilarious to see people try and claim it came out of nowhere, though I get what they mean about the sudden hype-ramp at launch.
Pogaymon kids gtfo of /pol/. Ingress was far better and 3 years ago and y'know, not fucking ((((pokemon))))
>>80970666
>>80976414
Ingress was literally just a data mining app to personalize advertisements. Pogoyman Go isn't any better, but it is all the same.

I'm saying there is no spying, but if you're still paranoid you can deny camera permissions.
They should put Mewtwo on the peak of Everest or something. Imagine the possibilities.

I had never heard about this POS until the day after it came out.
Suddenly news about it everywhere.
Then we find out one of the project leads is ex CIA.
No thanks.
>>80976777
Indeed it was, but being apart of the closed beta and incorporating new tech it just felt special. Met a lot interesting characters and new friends and learned a lot traveling tge cities and parks, good times for sure, it was addictive af there for awhile similarly to pogoymon I'm sure.

Probably, since Google is tied into a lot of it AFAIK. But you can deny the app the ability to do that when you set it up. Thats assuming they honor it though.
Also it blew up because its 100% social, and normies love that shit. Local hots spots become Gyms, you buy Lures that turn an area of your city into a prime spot to catch rare pokemon so people congregate there. Fucking Starbucks is paying Nintendo millions so they can turn their stores into Official Virtual Pokemon shops because you have to walk to the Virtual Store to buy gear and power ups.
Pokemon is 21 years old now, so its prime nostalgia bait that actually never went away as well. Its why the game is using Generation 1 pokemon and not any of the newfag shit.
But yeah, it is a great way to get faggots to put on glorified radio collars and film shit for Big Brother as well. But its also another gigantic data dump of mostly useless information to clog up the system and creates an enormous amount of single noise for "bad guys" to hide in as well.

You're a fucking idiot. Who cares. People will play video games and if they become more sociable because of it then great. You're just upset because you can't take the normies edging in on your autist turf.

You faggots have gotten soft. You ignore the world around you as it goes up in flames, and as it persecutes your loved ones, and stomps on your non-existant spine. Despicable. The lowest of the low you are, you moldering, putrid animal. You insignificant sack of sunflower seeds, whose only use is to be ground and spat out on the ground. Your sarcasm is weak and your brain is that of a sheep. I see "1 post by that fucking ID" and I know, you are a noncommital shrew. A pest and a parasite on the broad sholders of others. You sicken me. Your flag isn't even halal. Disgusting. Do this entire thread, and perhaps the world a favor, and drown yourslef in the oils off your skin. Thanks.
