Really interesting video. I can imagine playing an MMORPG where you get around by actually walking and running. Suddenly the biggest computer geeks would be super fit.
like when the collective world went outside at the same time when Pokemon Go launched. Our quiet downtown area was amazing to walk through. all those people.
Kind of a shame that the pandemic was so soon after. I wonder how much it affected the game's popularity.
It was 3.6 years after? And it was pretty dead at that point. Like it was popular with a core group who were making Niantic and TPC tons of money, but the phenomenon was dead by the anniversary.
It died in my area when they dropped the amount of spawn nodes to the point where you couldn't really walk around. You had to drive pretty far at that point, and that kill let most people's enthusiasm.
I don't know if it was complaints by local businesses or what, but after that I never saw large groups walking around again.
