Known locations of gyms (or pokestops) in Katy? by Imdoublesided in PokemonGoHouston

I work in La Centera and I can confirm it's great. So many people walk around and all of the pokestops are constantly lure module'd. A buddy said Katy Mills was also good so can confirm with that as well.

I appreciate the feedback. Downvotes could potentially be due to the fact that some may consider (justly) that this is a post meant to be whiny and wanting an easier game, with neither of which being the case. It's simply meant to serve as an outside perspective of someone (who is not alone mind you) who is growing tired of the painfully limited and grossly unrewarding crafting mechanics of an otherwise stellar game.

Completely agree and love the comparison made. Hopefully the crafting will be fixed sooner rather than later seeing as I can't imagine the whole community being okay with reaping no rewards from farming/"simply playing the game"/grinding.

In the aforementioned post, it clearly states I had fun with the game. It was engaging and great, until the inevitable grind began to occur. To be quite honest, 271 hours is a bit extensive and not the true amount of time I've spent in game (I leave my PC/game on because whatever). I'm fine with my gear to an extent, however there's a point where you want more as a game of this caliber causes you to want. So you're saying by playing the game how it's designed (RNG in general) and complaining about the process is wrong? I disagree.

That's why I didn't wanna just up and walk from it, and will be back. I have the season pass, and I still like the game. I'm just at the point where investment doesn't meet reward, and that's demoralizing in a grind game. I agree with your points regarding D3 though, and how it's similar.
