>there are people on /v/ that ACTUALLY play Pokemon Go
Tell me, why do you support mobile gaming?
i never played a mobile game before but i played it because I wanted to lose some pounds and take my dogs for a walk
get outside fatty
>>344874914
I tried it, but it's kinda lame
sucks about the whole datamining thing too, pokemon is still shit I guess
The same reason why people buy physical DLC. It's okay when Nintendo does it.
>>344875019
I'll go outside without having my phone stuck to the screen you fag
>>344875090
prove it
>>344875019
>losing pounds by walking
just stop eating like shit start and lifting/doing vigorous cardio, you moron
>>344875157
>just stop eating
why would I stop doing the thing I enjoy the most
>>344874914
We don't officially have it in Bongland, and I'm too lazy to pirate it. I'd rather just wait for S&M to come out and play a proper Pokemon game.
>>344874914
I don't really understand the appeal of Pokémon Go. It seems like you just wander round looking for virtual Pokemon to catch and.... that's of?
I'm playing it in anticipation of when it won't be shit, since everyone is going to drop it by the end of the month, like what happened with Miitomo, leaving me alone to win it when it's good.
>>344874914
Explain why mobile gaming is inherently bad.
I don't support much gaming of any kind. I get drunk and play CS:S every other night on the same server. Console gaming is a joke, portable gaming is for children, and phone games are for normies.
The industry is dead on arrival. Find your niche, it probably already was released, stick with it and just shitpost here to ruin everyone's fun.

And then you whip it out in front of your friend and make them jealous.
That was the exact point of pokemon cards too.
I never met anyone who actually did pokemon battles with pokecards. The only use they had was collecting them, trading them and making your friends jelly.
Pokemon Go doesn't have trading yet though.
Your first mistake was thinking Pokemon Go is a game and not an app.
its cool, you get to meet people and everybody does it
hope more games are awesome like this
I'm about to drop it. There are zero pokemon within 3 miles of my house, and I don't care enough to go out for the sole purpose of playing
>>344875742
Yeah, because it's not like you could ever meet people through games before.
>>344875742
I hope the next trend is people setting themselves on fire so the world can purge itself of people le you
>>344875587
Most people didn't know how to play the trading card game.
I only knew how to because of the Gameboy game
>>344874914
>why do you like to have fun
Because Squidward, I have various tastes. One of which is mobile
>>344874914
>Playing a free game means you're supporting it.
Are you retarded? Do you know what supporting means?
But bro I got laid Xdddd you're just a nerd if you don't play it bro
>>344876034
But why play on cards when you can play on gameboy
>>344876034
The rules are pretty simple though. Anyone who owned a few cards and read their text would be able to play it.
The reason nobody played it was that it's just not fun, especially compared to stuff like yugioh or magic.
>Sunday
>Go to the biggest local park to see if there are any Pokemon
>There are a couple stops all together with a lure module on one
>About five/six people hanging out
>Chat with them for a bit, catch a Psyduck and a Dratini
>It's great and super calm
>Go back yesterday
>Literally 80+ people there all yelling and running
>>344875742
>Nintendo makes a mobile game that necessitates going outside
>/v/irgins are suddenly pretending that theyre normies that can make lots of friends and meet grills
>>344875446
>designed for short attention span bursts of gameplay
>designed to let you play for free, however progression is quickly halted behind a paywall
>pay money to progress faster and end up realizing how extremely shallow the game is when you have the extra in game resources to blow
>people get more focused on mobile games than actual games to the point where something like Pokemon is causing actual problems in society
>mobile developers are also in cahoots with service providers to make you jack up your data usage
I can filibuster mobile games all day anon
>>344876053
Just downloading a free game is supporting it. You are helping keep them on the front page, giving them Ad revenue, etc etc
>>344877803
>make you jack up your data usage
Go uses barely any data. Battery on the other hand...
>>344874914
>there are people on /v/ that ACTUALLY play Pokemon Go
I don't believe it, /v/ would never do that.
But I don't play Pokemon Go. I play Final Fantasy Brave Exvius.
>normies spend 15 years laughing at people playing pokemon
>suddenly they're massive pokemon fans and run around town collecting those dumb things
>>344874914
>mfw someone hacks Pokemon Go!, and sends multiple weebs to their death looking for a rare near the grand canyon
>>344878591
It's how normeis are man.
>2006: LOL WHY DO YOU SPEND SO MUCH TIME ON THE COMPUTER
>2016: LOL WHY DON'T YOU HAVE A FACEBOOK ANON?
>>344875019
>lose some pounds
Nigga just cut carbs, lift, do cardio. Not that hard.
>>344878848
Which do you think is worse anon, normies or hipsters? A friend and I were talking about this yesterday, we decided on hipsters.
>>344875742
>you get to meet people
So you're telling me that you never once left the house to socialize?
How autistic are you?
>>344879527
You and your friend got it right, hipsters are way way worse. Most normies are pretty nice people and dont bother anyone. But hipsters are cancerous and pretentious and just infect other peoples interests because they want to look cool to other hipsters.
>>344874914
People on /v/ love to bitch about anything popular, but then still buy into the hype and play it. Haven't you figured this out yet OP?
>>344881492
I'd think it's half and half, some of them are new people who are still in the "I like videogames" stage and aren't as critical. So they head to /v/ from /b/ or wherever they first arrived here to talk about that new awesome videogame. The rest dabble in videogames more deeply and have become jaded so they complain about them more
>>344875019
>losing pounds
>walking
>can't even get your heart rate up because you have to stop to look like a faggot in public and catch pokemon
Figures that Pokemon Go faggots are this stupid when it comes to physical fitness and health
>>344877210
Hate to /pol/ here but i was on the fence who to vote for in the election and this picture single handedly made me want to vote for trump.
Just kill this fat bitch with fire.
>>344875289
Control certain points of interest (gyms) with your pokemon, taking those gyms from other teams for your own. It's turf wars.
>>344882357
Are you implying it does not consume calories
