Discover the reason for the anger of Pokémon GO fans regarding the arrival of Keldeo.
Pokémon GO is one of the many games belonging to the Pokémon industryThis is also one of the most popular games between 2016 and 2017. In just half a year after its release, Pokémon GO had generated 1 billion euros in revenue.
In this augmented reality game the players will have to walk the streets of their city to be able to find Pokémon gyms, visit one of the Pokeparadas or find wild Pokémon, and catch them. When you turn on the cell phone camera, you can see a virtual image of the wild Pokémonwhich can be caught by the player using pokeballs.
Lately fans have expressed their displeasure regarding certain aspects that the game has. Next, we will tell you more details about it and We will explain why players dislike the arrival of Keldeo in Pokémon GO.
Why don’t fans like Keldeo’s arrival?
Pokémon GO is constantly holding various special events within the game, to attract more players, and grant certain rewards to them. While at first glance this may seem like a good thing, the truth is that In order to participate or enter those events, players must pay.
It is not uncommon for video games to have some Premium features or internal purchases, such as for events like this, however, the real problem is that sometimes the price is quite outrageousas is the case with the Mythic Blade event.
This event, in addition to introducing Keldeo to the game, a powerful fifth generation Pokémon, will bring certain challenges with which players can get rewards🇧🇷 In order to access the Mythic Blade event, players must have a ticket or pass that they must buy; it is then that the anger of the players arises.
Notably the anger of the players is not towards the arrival of Keldeobut towards the outrageous cost of the event pass that will introduce this Pokémon to the game.
The advertised ticket price is 7,99$but the players claim that this price is more than the potential value of Keldeo and, despite the label or “regional equivalent,” it’s more expensive in some places than the conversion rate suggests.
According to a comment on Reddit, the dollar-to-euro conversion rate for the ticket is still around $7.99 in the United States. But when doing the conversion of his list price for the ticket was close to 11 US dollars.
Also, there is a chance that Keldeo at the end of the questline “Something Extraordinary” have a poor distribution of IV stats. Having a Keldeo with poor IV I would position it behind a Fighting and Water type Pokémon that a trainer has already optimized for showdowns or GO Battle League.
The event tries to offer limited use items like incubators as rewards, and offer unique events in order to attract players to the ticket price, however, Gamers In Reddit Post Are Still Furious At Niantic.
With over 700 comments and a 95% upvote rate, Reddit users agree that Niantic is pushing players to the limit with ticketed events and their global price.
Pokémon fans are already fed up with having to pay excessive prices to be able to enjoy special events and the challenges and rewards that these include, as well as they have tired of Niantic wanting to squeeze the sources of income from Pokémon GOalienating the players.
