Poke-fever fading away.

 

Remember the game that promised virtual reality and how one could "actually see" the pokemon while catching it? Well According to some app and market intelligence firms , Pokemon go servers are loosing traffic. 

There was a time when one had to wait for the servers to clear up as so many people at a time were indulged in the game. However now that is not the case. People have seemed to have moved on from the poke craze now that they have experienced it , not to mention the bans that some countries have  imposed on the game itself causing it to loose much of its user base.

While one can applaud the success of Niantic , the developers of the Game , there were also some flaws in Pokemon Go that may have caused the decline in its fanbase. The tracking system for example , At first the app showed specific distances then came the footsteps and after that Niantic just removed all indications and caused people looking for Pokemon to go in circles , literally. Another feature that they failed to implement in the game was the abillity to batle with fellow trainers. Although one could find gyms and battle there , fighting one to one battles with trainers is a whole other thing and is also a vital part in the Pokemon franchise as seen in its games as well as the anime. Another very important thing that they missed was the ability to trade Pokemon. Every one of us have known about Pokemon cards and have had a collection of them at one point in our life. Trading of Pokemon cards was an essential part of Pokemon becoming famous. 

Perhaps becuase Niantic was unable to implement certain things its user base is declining. What do you think about Pokemon go loosing popularity? will it still have the influence on the mobile gaming industry as it once did? Comment your thoughts down below.
