I started playing Pokémon GO actively autumn 2022. I’m very soon on level 41 and I am amazed I have had the concentration to play for this long! And I’m not bored of it, quite the opposite! It is very atypical for me, usually I get bored with a game in a couple of months. Or get super discouraged if I fail or hit game over, don’t want to continue playing and just throw a hissy fit and never play again.
But I want to keep on playing PoGo and I’m really into it, I feel like I’m a part of a secret cult, but in a good and fun way. My spouse plays PoGo as well and we talk about it pretty much and we play together and it’s one very important hobby of ours. It brings us closer. My close friends play as well. I feel this game has brought good things in my life, I walk a lot and go outside and spend time with other people.
Is there other Pokémon GO players on the forum? what are your views on the game? I feel this is more of a hobby than game. It has become a big part of my day to day life and I enjoy the game very much. Is it sad or embarrassing? Am I a nerd and is it a bad thing?
