The only time I remember them listening to the fans is when they increased the pokestop spin radius during covid, then reverted it back soon after. Everyone was outraged so they increased the radius back again, but were very passive aggressive about how they announced they were reverting it

I think it's one thing for a Japanese dev studio to be very insular, like Nintendo or something. But western studios like Niantic can't really get away with that imo. There's a reason every single other game they've made has failed. They are bad game developers who make bad business decisions and ignore their playerbase's wishes

If they didn't luck into literally the largest media franchise in the world, they would have gone out of business years ago since nobody gives a shit about augmented reality anymore. I really wish The Pokemon Company would pull the license and give the game to a better developer. It could be a much higher quality product that makes more money and is more player-friendly
