Would you play a Pokémon game that had Facebook posting capabilities?

[Moltres Rider]

would you play a Pokémon game that had Facebook posting capabilities? like it will post to your profile when you catch a Pokémon, get a Gym Badge, level up, or other significant events completed in the Pokémon game, and if you battle a friend on Facebook it would post that you beat (or was beaten by) that friend and would appear on both your profiles.

Would you play a Pokémon game with that capabilities?

myself, I would...

 

[PokeChris123]

That what seem could, but I probably wouldn't use the facebook capabilities.

 

[Captain Gizmo]

They actually have a game that resembles Pokemon but without the complex battling factors.

For myself, I would. I got tons of friends on Facebook that enjoys Pokemon and with that feature, we would be able to track what our friends would be doing and such.

 

[Altair1]

Well, I don't have Facebook (deleted it) and all I would be doing with such a game is spamming everyone's news feed on my progress!
Rather, I would have a dedicated Pokemon site which shows your progress. I believe Nintendo is implementing such a thing in Pokemon X & Y Global link features? It doesn't have automatic posts, but it has a timeline that updates when you use game sync for all to see.

 

[Aeroblast]

It's something that's not necessary and I doubt Game freak would spend time implementing those features.

 

[Iceshadow3317]

Yes.

They would probably give you an option to dis enable it anyways. I don't care that people know I play pokemon, but I do care about it spamming my timeline and my friends. I would still play though.

If you couldn't dis enable it and had to use facebook, I would just make a new account to avoid spamming my friends and my timeline.

 

[Amore]

Not specifically because of them, no. I've always considered just spamming Twitter every few seconds with an update on my progress through a new game from start to end, but then I thought by the end of it I really wouldn't have any friends xD.
Plus the way News Feed works the last thing I would want is pokémon notifications overriding anything that was actually managing to get through about my friends etc.

But if it was a decent-looking game, and there was an option to disable automatic updates, then sure.

 

[CliCliW]

I hate my Facebook timeline or news feed being spammed by annoying "post status updates every two seconds in case anyone cares" people, and I'd hate a Facebook compatible Pokemon facility. I think it's just totally selling out to a stupid social network like that. It's ridiculous really.

So I guess my answer is no. :L

 

[Kevin121]

Yes, but i wouldnt use them. I have a FB but i dont use it

 

[Sydian]

I wouldn't. I don't want to clog my Facebook and become one of THOSE people that sends requests and such all the time. I don't mind people knowing I play Pokemon, I just don't want to clog everyone's activity stream with it, or my profile. It's not aesthetically pleasing and I'm not fond of Facebook games in general anyway.

 

[bobandbill]

If it actually linked up to facebook, heck no, screw that noise.

If it's just like it... well, idk. I am not really a fan of that sort of thing either. I prefer it just being an optional thing in the same vein as say they way Animal Crossing does it - allows you to take pictures in game and if you so choose upload it to the internet to share with others.

 

[Darkrai666]

HOLY ****ING YES!!!! Who wouldnt?
Derpity Derpity Derp

 

[Andrew]

I definitely wouldn't. I hate Facebook integration on games. It spams people with invites/messages and doesn't seem all that useful to me.

Not to mention I don't use facebook all that much to begin with. I'm more of a Twitter person.

 

[skyluigi2]

Of course I would play it, I mean it's a new Pokemon game, right? Besides, it wouldn't be like you'd HAVE to use the feature. Anyway, given the fact that Miiverse is hitting the 3DS in the near future, there's pretty much no reason to have Facebook integration.
I tend to stick to Twitter anyway.

 

[bobandbill]

Miiverse would be a better system, I feel. Allows for screenshots and drawings and fits with the miis and so forth.

 

[.:batto:.]

Eh, Depends what kind of Pokemon game it would be. I don't think it would be completely necessary.. Do you mean a Pokemon game ON Facebook..?

I don't think i would let it post notifications to my wall however.

 

[Zero°]

Eww no I hate Facebook. I'd play the game but I wouldn't use the posting capabilities, in fact I don't use them for any game with posting capabilities.

 

[Sirfetch’d]

No because I don't use Facebook and even if I did I would want to keep that separate. Not because I don't want people to know I play Pokemon, but just because it seems kinda pointless to me.

 

[Kikaito plush]

Not a chance as I would not want to spam FB with pokemon posts.

 

[Sheep]

I'd imagine you would be able to disable these features, right? If so I'd definitely play it but would feel annoyed if it were forced, though not enough to stop me from playing, I suppose. I don't even use Facebook so I would have no problem with it posting things to my friend-less and dead account. :D
