I remember a couple a years ago it seemed liked every city block had a huge cluster of people playing the game. Don't really see that anymore.

It's still very very successful, but it obviously isn't as big as it was the summer that it came out.

Because people need to Pokemon Go to the polls.

Also my boomer parents play it so it isn't cool anymore.

Hopefully there aren't big clusters of people anywhere right now.

I still play. They've recently added remote raids to the game so you and others can work together on raid bosses while socially distant.

Yes, it's still pretty huge, just not compared to the phenomenon it was in its first few months.

This. People compare it to the first few weeks when they want to pretend it failed. Ignoring all logic and reason. But the fact I can randomly bump into someone else playing when I go out in my nowhere city 4 years later, kind of shows it's still a thing. And the gyms constantly changing hands.

i had to stop playing pokemon go for that reason and the location where i live. it's way out of the way.
closest pokestop is a 20 min walk (40 mins for more plentiful stops).

old place: could get within 10 minutes of a pokestop (20 mins for more plentiful).

Obviously there's no possible way it was ever going to maintain the level of popularity it had when it came out. It was absolutely bonkers.

But it's still popular. I started playing it again in March.

They've made it really hard to spoof recently and easier to ban accounts so that's a plus. Some people still use multiple phones and fill gyms in with their alts though.

Not really necessary now with remote raids. Maybe there's still people spoofing for spawns and holding gyms but I think most cheating back then was for raids and EX raids and the latter has been cancelled.

They actually region locked remote raids (which makes complete sense I guess)

I just wish we could do remote trades. I'm sitting on so many trades with my friends and haven't seen them since March
