Best Mobile Game of 2016
That would be Pokémon Go – a game familiar not only to international gamers but also to those in Vietnam. This is an augmented reality game developed by Niantic and published by The Pokémon Company for iOS and Android devices as part of the Pokémon game series. The game was launched globally in July 2016 and quickly won the Best Mobile Game award that same year, quite convincingly.
After nearly a decade of vibrant activity, Pokémon Go continues to attract and maintain a large fan base. However, recently, for unknown reasons, Pokémon Go suddenly banned a series of accounts without any clear explanation, leaving the gaming community extremely frustrated and voicing their displeasure continuously.
Is the Mobile Game Community Helpless?
According to reports, many accounts have been banned for 7 days, while some individuals have been banned for up to 30 days without knowing what they did wrong. Pokémon Go players certainly cannot just sit still. They have reached out to the publisher Niantic, but it seems they only received responses from a bot.
Many Pokémon Go accounts are being banned for unclear reasons.
In the response emails, Niantic stated that the banned accounts violated the Terms of Service or Player Guidelines. This violation was because players accessed Niantic’s services improperly using unapproved methods. However, according to reports, many players did not even try to do anything wrong. The reasons provided by Niantic are vague, failing to address the wave of outrage and only adding “fuel to the fire.”
Niantic has yet to alleviate the concerns of the gaming community.
It remains unclear what the overall status of Pokémon Go is at this time. However, one can be sure that the banning situation is spreading and causing a lot of trouble.
