What went right?
it's funny pokemon killed overwatch
How do we stop this autism epidemic, /v/?
>>344691884
with pokemon STOP
>>344691884
Oh shit, I know what I'm doing tomorrow
>>344691736
doesnt pokemon have their own board for this shit im tired of seeing 50 threads on pokemon go every day
>>344692015
fuck off m8, stay triggered and bump bread again
how jelly are you, /v/?
>>344692015
that's like complaining about cosplay threads because cosplay has their own board
>>344691736
My phones incompatible :(
my friend found a charmander in my bathroom while smoking crack
>>344692146
I'm not because I don't play shit games.
>>344692146
Not at all
You collected a bunch of shit for no reason. I wouldn't be surprised if they did some sort of purge because muh beta test.
>>344691736
I have never seen /v/ getting BTFO this hard. all the sonyggers on suicide watch right now.
them taking personal information for themselves
>reading their email
>having access to google accounts
Good thing I didn't install this POS
>>344691736
>what went right
it has pokemon in it
hand me my marketing/publishing job please
>>344691884
>people going outside and talking to others face to face
Pokemon Go is going to get nerds laid.
>>344692335
>a google service having access to google accounts
Yeah real fuckin weird
There are literally 3 people in the room with me right now playing this
Live in the suburbs, and just recently broke my foot. So not even bothering with the game.
Though we almost ran over some elementary school kids playing Pokémon Go in the street here.
>>344692264
>Nintendo going down the dark path of F2P mobile """gaming"""
>good
>>344692335
oh shit guys google is gonna have access to my gmail wat do?
>>344691736
They cashed in on the nostalgia of people in their mid to early twenties who liked Red and Blue when they were kids but think they're too cool for Pokemon now.
>le original 151 is da best xD
>>344692247
but.. I didnt play beta...
>>344692636
>>le original 151 is da best xD
28 y/o here, thats true
>>344692636
This
I haven't seen any kids do this, only 30 year old manchildren and landwhales
Its ok when Nintendo do mobile shit.
>>344692146
Not at all because you can't even use them in an actual Pokemon game. The fuck is there to be jealous over?
>>344692682
Don't bother, the dumb nig is too busy clenching his buttocks to stay informed
>>344691884
>Fordítás megtekintése
What the fuck.
>>344692707
No actually you're just a hipster faggot.
Pokemon GO could be good if it had some fucking actual pokemon gameplay to it. The idea is okay but without dueling other people like what's the point other than autism collection?
>>344692853
>No actually you're just a hipster faggot.
explain to me then why at uni its such a fucking hit. In computer engineering no less.
>>344692930
you just proved him right
>>344692636
>>344692709
I saw a kid walking down my street with his phone up and him looking around, he was obviously playing it.
>>344692709
>one of the most popular apps
>it's only manchildren and landwhales
if you really believe that you are an idiot. I know qt3.14s who play this game and even talk about it on facebook so yeah...
>>344692896
wait, hold on. I haven't been following this game. so all you do is catch them, and that's it?
>>344692896
Imagine dueling for points.
The autism.
>>344692930
Pokemon is still popular as ever, even XY.
If you think Pokemon games after Red/Blue are entirely, irredeemably bad then you're a hipster and probably never even played the later games
>>344692982
I'm the guy who said there are 3 people in the room playing it right now.They're all lolis
>>344691736
>Nintendo is going full mobile after this
>Other companies might try to copy it but because they don't have a franchise like Pokemon it won't stick, then they will go back to real video games
All is right in the world.
>>344692990
There are no battles
You just catch Pokeman to fill your autism meter and spend real money shit.
>>344692990
There are also NPC gyms but the combat is just tapping the screen fast
>want to play this
>iphone 4
>>344692853
Go totodile somewhere else before I cyndaquill your feraligatlr
Yeah, feraligatlr, what a shit name, that isn't in the original 151, how surprising.
>>344693118
>>344693126
Glad I skipped this one
Twitch is becoming alien to me
These Pokemon Go streams are hyper-normie
>>344691884
Some of you are alright, dont go to Central Park tommorow...
>>344692978
How so?
>>344693182
you are missing out, this is the biggest thing in gaming in years.
>>344693182
Same tho, just be like me and cherry pick all the bad things about the game and convince yourself you don't want to play it.
Honestly though isn't the combat system a bit lackluster?
>you beat a gym that had 5 pokemon in it
>beat it again and again and again till you finally clear it
>some faggot snipes it and puts their pokemon before yours
>whoever made pokemon go thought this was ok

Missing out what exactly?
>>344693102
>using the term loli to depict real world young girls
Let me guess, you're a creepy, out of shape, shut in neckbeard.
>>344693317
>combat system a bit lackluster
Lmao, there is no combat system. It's literally tap a pokemon and throw balls. >>344693182
You guy's seriously aren't missing out on anything. It's fun for like 2 hours.
>>344691736
Well certainly not the servers.
Don't get me wrong I like the game but the servers management right now is utter shit
>>344693454
well yes
>>344693348
>it's a /v/ hates a game because it's popular edition

Twitch was always normalfags.
>>344693454
You're right, it is.
Hell, just look at this thread
Only normalfags play Pokemon Go. Its Pokemon for people who are too cool for Pokemon.
>>344693350
I don't go outside
>>344693472
Yes

If you don't like it. Don't do it.
If people are dumb enough to get killed or robbed then it's just another example of survival of the fittest
God forbid people go outside and talk face to face instead of messaging on facebook.
I understand why people don't like it. And that's fine with me. You're no better than SJW feminists who complain about being triggered that someone bullied them on their blog. Just look away. It's not hard.
>>344692682
Maybe you should go look at the app version number under settings, anon...
>>344693932
I don't even own a PS4

>>344693926
I can rape most gyms that I live nearby.. unless they have water type, them im probably fucked.
I need to go to the beach soon
>>344693697
It gives people a reason to go out. Just like how you decide to not go to the gym because you feel like it's a waste of time when others go to the gym because they feel good and have fun with it.
God forbid to let people have fun. Hating on other people having fun says more about you than it does the ones you hate on.
>>344694248

Getting too old for this shit.
>>344694413
Bitch I was around before you were even born. This app just happens to be convenient since all I have to do is download it.
>>344694386
It is a fad, it'll be just like Miitomo.
College kids who think they're too cool for real Pokemon games are having a nostalgia rush that'll wear off in a month or so, and that'll be the end of it.
>>344694539
It really is.

>>344693348

>>344694539
it's more of a game than Uncharted.
>>344694413
Did you believe people were joking when they talked about neo-/v/ in the past? It took you this long to realize that neo-/v/ is real?
You deserve to stay here.
Anyone think it's actually quite scary to see what is happening? All those people together at one place just for this shitty as "game"?
This shows the sheep mentality of people. The future will look great if VR glasses are going to be the norm...
Damn son
>>344691736
godfuckingdammit, i'm so fucking mad, ingress has been a thing for years,YEARS and people gave no fuck because it's a shitty non-game that only works if you live in a populated area, are autistic and know at least 3 other people that are also as autistic as you
but no, now that you get to pretend to be an epic pokemon monster going on an adventure, you want to play this shit, that's all it took, you are so attached to the brand, you would eat shit if i said it was a new pokemon
normie cleansing when?
>>344694413
I really don't care much about the game but I enjoy spending time with friends just hanging out. The only mobile game I actually found entertaining was this.
>>344692636
This. I'm downloading this shit today.
As someone who had blue version in the 4th grade, I feel like I have to have this game.
I have had an I phone since the 4/5 and I have never downloaded a game till Pokemon go
>>344694703
/v/ doesn't like Uncharted. What point are you trying to make?
>>344692238
Easy with all that EDGE anon.
>>344694703
It's really not

Yes, you're a fucking pleb. You don't need to hammer it in.

Guys please start using the report button already, for a cleaner /v/
>>344694768
I had the same thought. It's pretty horrifying how easy it is to control people's movements these days. It's probably going to get worse when sponsored content is added to this.
>>344694760
People have been blaming newfags (and later neo-/v/) for about 10 fucking years. This place has always been shit, the flavor of shit just changes over time.

Look forward to Nintendo going 100% mobile after their next handheld.

I might try it this week, if I see a chick "playing" I will approach. Very easy opener

Pokemon was always a normalfags casuals series.

WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG ABOUT NORMALIZING GAMING!?!?
this is SO good for us. I mean, sure you could argue we've hit critical mass but even still this game is helping to break down perception barriers left and right on what a gamer looks like or acts. Why is it a bad thing that being a gamer is normal now? Isn't that the dream we always hoped for?
This game is setting up to be so huge for gaming in so many ways. How can you not be excited to see what happens?
>>344695207
ORAS has higher expectations being actual pokemon games.
This is a casual app so you expect less
>>344691982
Fox...DIE
Man, I'm sure that if I would just start playing this I would be able to pick up so many qts here on campus, even with my social retardation.
>>344694865
thats not edge faggot
how do you guys not realise that the game is a literal botnet
>>344695620
So this....... is the power of Nintendo......woah..........
>>344695510
that's like comparing AC1 to AC2, they learned from their mistakes and elevated the experience to the next level. improving on a concept doesnt mean it's the same and it clearly shows. Pokemon GO is way more popular because it's objectively a better game.
>install
>get my starter
>dont want to go out to continu
well that was quick
>>344695620
>disabling AR mode
>>344695626
I never wanted gaming to become a normal activity. Because I always knew that it was the exact reason I liked it. Now with more normlies, genres are destroyed and the concept of challenge is gone.
>>344695679
>botnetting mobile cpus
anon..
>>344695679
Do you even know what a botnet is?
>>344695620
SONY NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS, THIS CANT BE HAPPENING.
Nintendo was supposed to die, they had no games and everyone agreed that their games were shit and for toddlers. Now I look at Twitch and even Chad and his 10/10 gf are catching Pokemon and giving money to the Nintenjew. STOP IT RIGHT NOW, SONY NEEDS TO RELEASE UNCHARTED GO.

Brand name, good timing, nostalgia crowd.
95% of the playerbase will quit before the month ends though.
>>344695561
I disagree. It went underground after the fad ended (which happened like what, 18 years ago?), especially if you were an adult player.
/vp/ used to be a slow but comfy board but now it's completely shat up by normies
Funny how people thought Yokai Watch was going to be the end of Pokemon as we know it, and it turned out it that it's biggest enemy is itself. Because lets face it, the is no way Nintendo will stop at just Go.

This is how dumb you people sound. I've been playing for two days, having fun, and making the most of this game WITHOUT SPENDING A DIME. Did you pay for the MGSV microtransactions? Of course not, and you were able to play the game just fine.

Yeah except like 90% of the core gameplay features and about 3/4 of all creatures are gone
Pokemon Go is hardly a game, it's basically a glorified photo app. Maybe this is why it caught on as well as it did - gaming is for le nerds xD
was this anticipated? I had been tracking the sun/moon release a little bit but hadn't heard anything about this nonsense until this meme-plosion.
Wait til they release the bracelets. It'll be like fucking aushwitz with everyone wearing their star of david
>>344696750

Yeah and I hate faggots that jog down the street and get in my way, or faggots that ride their bike in the middle of the road so I can't pass them in my car. Go players are minding their own business. You are the autistic one if it bothers you that much.

Pokemon Go is THE pokemon game now you dunce. Nintendo's stock went up TWENTY PERCENT. They spent like $12 on this fucking reskin mobile game.
This is the new paradigm for mobile games and for nintendo and for the entire gaming industry. If you don't expect an explosion of this kind of shitware, you're even more retarded than your post lets on.

Don't worry faggots this isn't going to taint your precious RTS/FPS/ASSFAGGOTS games.
>>344696871
>was this anticipated?
Kinda.
People thought it's going to be big after the initial reveal made the game seem much better than it really was. Then it turned out its a poor mans Ingress reskin so the entire Pokemon fanbase (including /vp/) lost interest. It didn't help that the game got delayed a few times and the impressions from beta tests were lukewarm at best.
But turns out normies didn't give a single fuck about any of that and proceeded to eat this shit up like we're back in 1998. It's crazy.
>>344697184
Your GPS and camera aren't usually ALWAYS ON you fucking moron
They've struck a goldmine with this game
> What went right?
It became an mmo without all of the immediate shitty flaws.
I think ethically, Pokemon Go is one of those apps that you really shouldnt release due to public concern of stupid people and children. I guess you can say the same for Tinder and such, but this has a higher level of ethical importance.
>>344695626
Nigger that shit doesn't matter anymore since GG got buried. This just means we'll continue to get shit pay to win games forever. Got damn normies REEEREEEEEEREEEEEE

eating what shit? its free and fun to talk about with friend. I have friends who makes even now to go take walks together from midnight to 4 am, and we're all 25-32 y/o. We can stop at bars, grab a beer, and proceed with catching more pokemons

You guys are getting way too smug, fucking go to the gym, lift weights and get ripped instead

The shit with pokemon go is literally the same shit that happen with the trading card game where schools threw embargos and people got jumped at night for cards in the 90's.

it's still infinitely better activity than your "difficult" games
>>344697645
its more exercise than the average /v/irgin
>>344697146
If Nintendo made a handheld/phone hybrid it'd be pretty neat. Most mobile games are pretty bland since it's just point/swipe/hold.
>>344697968

>moderate to high entry level (based on the particular game in question)

The lack of those flaws alone puts pokemon go in a way better position than traditional mmos.
>>344698016
exercising while playing pokemon go is better than going to the gym for an hour and spending the rest of the day playing cod eating doritos and drinking mountain dew
They've created something extremely addictive and also very easy to access. People I know who play this are freaking out when the servers go down, including normies who don't play vidya otherwise. I had a shady dude approach me and actually try to sell me the .apk file (game isn't released here). The parallels to drugs are astonishing.

I can agree with thisI actually have a daughter, and we took a long walk yesterday. She was catching Pokemons with my phone (made an account for her). We stopped at various parks and got some ice-cream along the way. She had a lot of fun and so did I. Loving this game just for this so far.

well like I said the FO apps actually had stuff that interacted with the real game, Go doesn't. They were also aimed at actual fans of Fallout 3 and 4, whereas Go is aimed at le 90s kids hipsters who think the only good parts of Pokemon are the original 151.
Mainline Pokemon games are literally too much for the casuals to handle

>>344700820
amiibos have stuff that interact with their games too. how come it's considered as crap?
does main game interaction automatically make shelter and pipboy better than go? does that mean because of interactivity that go gets more shit than those?
because if that's what you mean then no one should be complaining about amiibo as well
>>344700469
>make friends
can someone explain this part to me? yeah you go around and see people with their phones up walking trying to catch pokemons, and you say "hey you playing pokeyman" "yeah bud it's awesome" and then what? it's not like you can interact with them via the game, you just show them your pokemons and they show you theirs and that's it? now we're friends because we're playing the same game?
I'm kind of missing something here, I want more friends but I don't udnerstand how pokemon go will help me with that. Is it supposed to be like wearing a guy fawkes mask in public "oh yeah anonymous hehe cool bro"

While yes you can play from a car, I see most people walking around. You can literally go to youtube and type Pokemon Go for crowds of ppl.
>I only play from my cae there for I dont get exercise and is not a health game
The same can be said about DDR as you could use a controller, but we all know youd be called retarded for saying its not a dance game.

how fucking autistic are you. its like anything else (school, work, random events), you just talk to people, sometimes you get along and make a friend, or not. thats it. It just gives you a common subject to start a conversation.
Im living in Poland and literally no one here is talking about this shit, even though you can download it unofficially. Should i be happy or sad?
>>344700984
>does main game interaction automatically make shelter and pipboy better than go?
For me, yeah. To me these apps are farmville-tier garbage, but I'd play if there was some bonuses I got in other games, like if I could EV train in Go on the bus or something.
Personally I don't think amiibo are bad, the only games where I thought they were implemented in a really scummy way was Mario Party 10 and AC Amiibo festival, I know /v/ hates them though.

lmao this shit is nowhere to see in germany

So how do Pokemon appear?
>>344700853
This line of thinking does not make sense to me. These people who play these mobile end up spending hundreds of hours on them, far more than I spend on the average "real" game, they're just doing it in shorter bursts.

Sure, you can dislike the app itself.
But when literally all your complaints are "FUCKIGN NORMIES!" then you're just retarded.
>>344698657
Pokemon Go is a glorified Pokedex app.
>>344691736
Trump helped make it. No, seriously. Nintendo actually reached out to the man himself for advice.
What the fuck went wrong?

>>344701013
it is a great conversation starter, desu I just hang around pokestops in my city to talk to qt3.14s when I see them playing the game. Getting their number has never been this easy, I mean you can even ask them if you can join their route and take down the gym together. This game literally gives you a reason to walk through the city with a qt and ask her for her number to meet up tomorrow for the next run and to finally get that Pikachu we were searching.
I hate casuals but I have to say this might be GOTY for me, I never had a problem with getting a gf but this is so easy I cant believe it.

Fucked if I know.
I have a Nokia 3310 and Pokemon GO won't run on it.
Apparently it's some game where you run around IRL collecting fictional characters, and fictional items, and getting in fictional battles, to make the fictional characters' numbers go up?
Eh, I suppose "Make number go up, also there are cute thing" games are popular nowadays.

summary of the game right here
>>344691736
>What went right?
Its targeted towards non-gamers using Gen1 pokemon nostalgia.
The game itself is quite shallow and will die at that since normal people dont give a shit about gen2 >.
It was a great business idea from nintendo but its sucess will hurt the quality of the games more than you think since we can probably expect them to do similar things with Mario and Zelda and maybe Kirby.
Non gamers are a bigger market than gamers and if you can make non gamers give you money its a huge sucess even when you fuck your core audience since all that matters is profit in business.
That said, nostalgia factor wears off quick and the game is really simple so you can expect it to die in a few months, but its enough for nintendo to get filthy rich of non gamer normal people and probably enough for them to want to repeat the experience with other IPs.
I guess their next step would be releasing a Mario Party phone game or something like that, maybe something that involves amiibos since most phones come with NFC nowadays.
>>344698205
hahahahha nice
do you go to caves often?
>>344701013
Ignore them. Anyone that brings up making friends or getting exercise is a paid shill.

Why has gaming come to this? Just fucking why. Fuck all of you shitty casuals that don't know anything about vidya.
>>344697317
But how will they make overpriced low quality artificially limited supply McDonalds toys (Amiibos) work with mobile games?
Nintendo has gotta find some way to lock content behind Amiibos.
there has to be a conspiracy behind this
>>344695173
He might but I won't, you spergy fatass
>>344701237
Dunno, I saw a random cafe on my kikebook wall trying to cash in on the Go fad saying that you should totally try their overpriced coffee while going to the PokeStop that just so happened to spawn in their place
Other than that it seems that it's just Nintendo nerds that are primarily interested in this game, and there aren't many of them in the first place.
>>344694321
Are the type weaknesses the same in go?
is the account tied to your phone? if I get mugged I will lose all my progress? is there some way to lock my account so even if I get robbed someone won't go deleting all my pokemon and turning them into candys while I get a new phone?
>>344703124
that's phone permissions, not google account permissions

So is this the GO general?
Today while I was jogging at the park I saw a girl roaming around playing it, she (seemed to be) was the shy quiet nerdish kind of girl, my type to be fair
Should I try telling something to her tomorrow if I see her? It's just I can't think of any line that would work, expecially while I'm all sweaty and tired from running
>>344702920
It will blow over once they start adding other region Pokemon since nothing triggers normies more than seeing a Pokemon they don't know from the cartoon
>>344697381
>But turns out normies didn't give a single fuck about any of that and proceeded to eat this shit up like we're back in 1998. It's crazy.
Anon.
Maybe, just maybe, its free and something to poke at when you're out and about.
You never have to pay for this game, not ever.
>>344703695
>So is this the GO general?

people always get mad at bandwagon fans, its not exclusive to pokemon, its the same as when a sports team is having a good season and suddenly everyone who used to badmouth them is wearing their t-shirts
normalfag le 90s kids are having a nostalgia rush that'll wear off in a month, they don't have the attention span to keep playing and none of them care about pokemon past Gen 2 anyways, if they even care about that.

The exciting thing of collecting 150 made up creatures that you could just do at home for free on like 12 games, an before you say go is free, you pay in walking
>>344701121
Because Canada is California politically with a pussified English/American hybrid culture and non of the good parts of any of them.
>>344704537
so you just catch and let them sitting in their pokeballs?
What's the actual point I don't get it.
>>344691736
pokemon was never a complicated game
it's a cute skinner box that most people between 16 and 35 have played
this is the skinner box game with a more "personal" touch.
>>344704569
so I guess you're just going to ignore the part about hate for bandwagon fans not being exclusive to Pokemon like that retard was implying. Guess you're illiterate. Makes sense if even the basic ass Pokemon games are too hard for you and you have to play fucking Go.

have you ever collected anything?
people collect pins, mail stamps, baseball player cards, etc
also you can't just go and say I want a pikachu, you need to walk like a retard for days to get one, so once you get one you feel a bit of acomplishment
also there's gym battles, but it's kinda crap
also notice how it's fucking verison 0.29, it's missing a fuckton of features that will be implemented eventual, it's a god damn beta, fucking research if you're actually interested, they're monetizing on a half assed barebones prototype clone of another game and it's making the mad shekels.
>>344696636
