Re: Pokemon GO
I can't walk anywhere in a timely fashion. My gf has battles and gyms and what not, where as I have to sit on the curb until she's done with it.

Re: Pokemon GO
We got those. Can't be worse than hashing.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Re: Pokemon GO
Does the little footstep tracker work right for anyone else? It always shows everything 3 footsteps away now and never gets any closer. Has actually taken a lot of the fun out of it.

I dont really care about battles or power ups. I just like to find ones we dont already have. Not being able to track them really blows.

Re: Pokemon GO
Look, the teenagers think it's cool that someone almost 30 years old plays it. I expect them to ask me to buy them beer pretty soon. Gonna be fun to see the disappointment on their faces when I say no@SkitchP wrote:that is not happening. Not now, not ever.Mecca wrote:I've just asked people around me "anyone find that Tauros?"

Re: Pokemon GO
I deleted this today. I played it for a while so I know about it when my kids ask, but frankly, games that ask you to go to particular place or play at a particular time (aka Farmville), really make me feel tethered to a device way more than I want to be. It really makes me feel like I'm being controlled by a robot overlord.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

You literally can play it anywhere at anytime.

Plus, it was the "keep walking to hatch this egg," that made me say fuck you, to this app.

Re: Pokemon GO
I will not be bossed around by a kids' game. I walk when I want to walk. I sit when I want to sit.
