Pokemon GO's Incense Controversy is a Bad Sign for Niantic's Rumored Game Campfire
For years now, Pokemon GO has offered fans a compelling alternate way to interact with their favorite collectible monsters. Rather than roaming around a fictional setting in search of Pokemon, fans of Pokemon GO can encounter monsters in the real world and get actively rewarded for walking around to find them. Over the years, Pokemon GO has added quite a few extra ways to reward fans for walking around, like earning bonus Candy from a Buddy Pokemon, but that doesn't mean the AR mobile game's relationship with player movement has always been stable. On the contrary, a new controversy about changes to Pokemon GO's Incense has opened old wounds.
