Yet another complaint post but... what the heck is this Christmas event? This was like the definition of a letdown. It's Christmas, which would be the perfect time to release gen 2(I mean all of it). People have money/gifts. They started the month trying to hype people up about new stuff coming. They start it by giving us hope for gen 2. I guess their idea of releasing it is only releasing 8 Pokémon, and only allowing them to get it by hatching eggs.. may I remind you that it's winter and it's cold asf. This would've been okay to do in the summer but really? It's like they don't think at all. I've actually hatched a lot of eggs since and it's been the same bs I've been hatching since July. If they want a staggered release of Gen 2 there's gonna be no comeback to the game. Release it all at once so players have more time to catch them. While players try to fill their pokedex you guys could.. i don't know actually work on making the game better rather than adding these minor conveniences to the game. Right now there's not really a point to the game other than filling your pokedex and putting a Pokémon in a gym for a whole 10 minutes. And.. then their idea of a Christmas update is putting a Christmas hat on pikachu.. that's all. Yeah these will be valuable when trading comes out but at the rate it's going that won't be out for like another couple months. And the main event are these gifts which require you to spend money, 1 incubator with 1 use(very generous) per day, increase spawns of the special pikachu, and increase egg hatches for the new Pokémon. It's very obvious you want us to spend money on incubators that require us to walk around for hours at a time in freezing weather. I get not every place on earth is freezing but a lot are, and since this a global game niantic shouldn't favor one part of the globe over another. So good job. My family is really disappointed in this as well as me. I heard though the other half of the event is increased spawns for the starters which is good because two of the few Pokémon I need to complete my pokedex are Venusaur and Charizard... it's not too bad of an event but a full release of gen 2 would be sooo much better for their popularity. I'm hoping that voicing my concerns could help improve the game but chances are they'll just add something else no one really asked for.
Also: is it just me or does everything jump out more than before?
