Thoughts so far? Forbes had a good article today about how over monetized it is. Energy cap is too low and it charges you energy more than pokemon. Inventories are all separate and must be upgraded separately with game currency or real $.

My nearest inn (pokestop) is 5 miles from home, you get one chance per 5 min to get between 3-12 energy so it is time consuming as hell.

Not sure how long this will last if the monetization doesnt chill out. About to hit lvl 10. I wish it rewarded you for walking instead of making you get in the car and drive around town to get the ability to play more. (1 energy for 100 steps or something) my kid has fun trying to collect things but he's not very good which leads to more energy spent and worsens the problem.

Game is fun, but as the article read, the energy issue is a big one. That really needs to be fixed.

Gaining energy is pretty annoying. I have a few inns near my office but it sucks that the only way to get energy is to find an inn or pay. Most games like this will let you build energy over time to keep playing. The game is fun but if something doesn't change about the energy I don't think I'll play for long.

Just spoof

The game does a lot of things better than pogo but has some faults too.

The wizard challenges are really fun and the portkeys/ AR is pretty cool, except I look like an idiot trying to click on everything around the room
But I hope they add some features to PoGo m

Yep. I don't have any inns or shops near me the majority of the day. I'd have to go somewhere and sit for quite a while to try and build up energy. I haven't been able to play the game for the past two days because I just don't have any energy.

Found a vet memorial park with 15 inns but they all gave 3 energy per meal. Wasnt bad since by the time i got to the back ones the fronts had all cooled down. Will be my go to for towers and there are also about 8 greenhouses when my inventory isnt overflowing w plants.

I think its kinda messed up the veteran memorial is overflowing w stuff but the city mall has no inns and a tower.
