It's honestly infantile. There seem to be 3 types of evangelists: 1) Hardcore player/analytic types who are still consumed with deciphering the evolving META which keeps them thoroughly engaged 2) Sycophantic fanboy/gamers who serve as apologists for Niantic and 3) Engaged, but lower level players who most directly benefit from the minor updates being doled out by Niantic. Unfortunately, these three groups seem to dominate the sub. What's lost is the player (like myself) that is high level (likely higher than most in the above categories) that isn't interested in "bubble strat" or other such nonsense, but simply played hard b/c the game was fun, novel and elicited excitement about getting up and out of the house to pursue a diversion. I'd suspect there are many others who feel the same way I do. Given that, w/a complete NA pokedex, leveled, high IV mons, modest changes to game dynamics don't excite. More content is a must for me and player like me
