I couldn't agree with this anymore. I'm personally getting tired of reading all the armchair critics on HN bashing the game itself. Here are articles popping up saying in under a week it has more installs than Tinder and is about to surpass Twitter in daily active users. Twitter has had 10 years to learn how to handle this much traffic, the Pokemon Go developers haven't even had 10 days. Look, it's a new app. There's going to be issues with it. There's going to be missing features that everybody wants. Does that mean they did a shitty job? No, not at all. I get that releasing a buggy app is far from ideal, but does anyone here actually know what they're going through? What constraints they had? What their budget was? No, no we don't. So who are we to sit here on a form and put down something that our fellow developers have built? To talk about how much better we would have done it? I don't have the game yet, but my wife does, and it's been a ton of fun. We walked around our quiet little neighbourhood the other night. We both honestly figured we'd be the only people playing. Then we saw a mother and her son sitting on a bench at a corner defending their gym. Not 50 meters down the road an elderly couple, easily in their 70's asked us what team we were on, and playfully gave us crap since we were yellow and they were blue! In the end, we walked around for an hour and saw at least 20 different people or groups playing. Everyone with smiles on their faces. Everyone being friendly, outgoing, and talking to strangers. How can you consider this game anything but a huge success?
