I don't understand why anyone is still playing this game. I remember back in 2018 or so everyone was complaining about the broken updates and lack of support from Niantic. I quit playing around that time.
The handful of people I know who still do fall broadly into two camps.
The casual skinner box type who just reflexively do it. My buddy who works for Fedex is one, and he just on habit opens it at every stop, does his business and moves on. Its the same as MMO players, just habitual play without any deeper thought.
The others are purely in it for socializing. They have their little local groups that get together and hang and use it mostly as an excuse to have the group get together. This is where most of the girl players are.
So, the game itself is mostly irrelevant, its just an excuse for people to indulge in either socializing or minor dopamine hits while working. And this update has fucked up the social ones bad.
