People's Pokemon Go addiction might finally come to an end anytime soon. A lot of people are frustrated that the developers of the game decided to take down one of the most sought after feature of the app, and because of this, players are slowly turning their back on Pokemon Go.
According to Polygon, all this frenzy started when Yang Liu asked Niantic, which was the developer of Pokemon Go, to disable the Poke Vision feature of the game. Just after a few hours of dismantling it, the Pokemon Go app was bombarded with thousands of hate comments and low ratings.
A lot of fanatics are saying that there's no point in playing the game if the Poke Vision, which is a tracking system where players could see through a map the nearest Pokemon in their location, would not be present again.
Since the feature was taken down, a lot of players could not distinguish where to find a Pokemon, and a lot of them are taking this thing a little too far. Because of all the hate and the threat of the players that they would abandon the game, Liu issued an open letter addressing the issue.
In his statement, the creator stated that Poke Vision was just a temporary solution. Originally, there wasn't supposed to be any tracking features, but since during the launch of the game some kind of glitch happened, and instead of making fans wait for a little more in order for the developers to fix the glitch, they decided to create a temporary solution which was the Poke Vision.
In other news, the very first lawsuit against Niantic, Nintendo, and The Pokemon Company was filed on July 6.
BBC reported that a man in the US filed a case because a lot of people began showing up in his house, wherein some of them where respectful enough to knock on his door but others started to walk around his yard without asking for permission.
The lawsuit stated that the accused Pokemon Go players "shown a flagrant disregard for the foreseeable consequences of populating the real world with virtual Pokemon without seeking the permission of property owners."
With all the issue surrounding the Pokemon Go app, could this mean that the end for the most anticipated app is nearing?
