Player Reviews

I have been going through discord, forums, reviews etc, i gotta say, I haven't experienced the unprofessional behavior of mods, admins and the big dog "niet" but the amount of people saying the same thing over and over made me feel disappointed. I wanted to explore the pokemon franchise and have some fun, and I thought a easy site game like PFQ would be fun the old media lay out, the amazing art, the cute fakemons, and the "albino" n "Melan" feature of the site drew me in. though, I don't mind slow progress or grindy ish games, but the hypermode and the endless boosts you need for a slimmer of luck for getting a special pokemon was odd to me, yet I ignored it. now that I pay more attention to it, it's indeed expensive, while i agree that money is needed for keeping up servers and I'm no game dev to experience the stress and hardwork of it, but limiting stuff behind paywalls is unfair and even more bitter if you call PFQ a "free site" yes its free to play but pay to win. it's sad since I'm extremely new to PFQ and wanted to explore the community, I haven't been through the prime of PFQ or PF1 to feel the disappointment of old players, but it's still saddening. I also heard PFQ is kind of abandoned and is left out for new media, cool thing, working on new things can be refreshing and exciting, but ignoring your user base and being rude to them is extremely bitter. I have no idea how old niet is, but looking through forums, I agree that he isn't the best at controlling his behavior, I haven't looked at other mods and admins to analyze their behavior so I'll leave it at that. overall, its kind of sad to see, especially when I was so interested and excited about PFQ.

would vote 0

I’d give zero stars I could, Over 200 eggs and no shinies…

I play this game daily but this game just needs more actives like playing with your pokemon, auctions and some more i wont put in this list but mainly its starting to get boring after a while i get bored of clicking this game should at least allow you to buy autoclicker with zc,gp or credits.

Thank you for your feedback, but autoclickers are and always will be against the rules. You appear to have missed the entire rest of the game, as clicking is only a single feature in a very large set of features. Take a look at your Farm page and see what features are there.

I just personally don't like this site and want to put a rating saying that.

Any... particular reason? Anything at all?

Spillet 'Pokefarm' står overfor flere utfordringer som direkte påvirker spillopplevelsen. Fremdriften i spillet er betydelig treg, og mengden engasjerende innhold er begrenset. Dress-up-funksjonen mangler substans, og mye av det tilgjengelige innholdet fremstår som utdatert. Det er spesielt frustrerende at spillet legger til rette for pengebruk, selv om en stor del av innholdet ikke klarer å fenge og virker avlegs. Å investere penger for å fjerne begrensningene knyttet til tidsstyrte oppgaver synes ikke som en gunstig avgjørelse. Dette blir spesielt påfallende når man vurderer at spillet har vært tilgjengelig i lang tid uten synlige forbedringer – noe som kan gi inntrykk av at økonomiske interesser går foran spilleropplevelsen. Det er også flere kommentarer fra andre om administratorers oppførsel og behandling av spillere som er bekymringsverdige. Det kan derfor være mer fornuftig å vurdere å investere tiden din i et annet spill som tilbyr en mer tilfredsstillende opplevelse. :/ På en positiv note, er det verdt å påpeke at spillet har imponerende pikselkunst på Pokémon-sprites, men dessverre virker dette å være den eneste overbevisende faktoren som holder spillet sammen.

Takk for din tilbakemelding. Det er riktig at det ikke har vært mye synlig fremgang, men mange oppdateringer har vært bak kulissene. Forbedringer av ytelse og ventetid, samt justeringer av spillingen er gjort. Med litt flaks vil vi ha noe synlig å vise til i nær fremtid.

Its okay. def pay to win. I have been on the site since 2018 but only recently got back into it in hopes of trading my stuff for chicken smoothie pets or something. Its a horrible, slow paced, time waster. Alot of games like this are, but this is by far the most blatant cash grab ive seen.

I've been here for a few years, and over the years (Started in 2020), this game has grown progressively more and more dismal in performance. - They're trying to glorify themselves. "Reviews with 80% negative user feedback are excluded from totals." That's literally what they say on the intro screen! They're literally trying to play down people's opinions, and sometimes just being downright abusive & cruel to other players! I'll admit, Cele is really nice, but the Absol needs to get a psychiatrist. - Toxic people not being handled. -just like another user said, completely similar to Global Pokedex Plus. Layout is similar, Sprites are similar, IDEA is literally the same. -Neit's a downright jerk! I've looked into a few rejected suggestions, and a lot of them are just Neit being mean to the people who suggested things. Some are really groundbreaking, others not so much, but only a select few involve Neit ever being nice to somebody.

I would just like to clarify that "Reviews with 80% negative user feedback are excluded from totals" refers to the thumbs-up vs. thumbs-down that users reading your review can use to provide their opinion on whether your review is helpful or spam. You're not the first person to accuse us of using this to "bury negative reviews" and "boost our rating score" but it may come as a surprise to you that our total average review score would actually be **higher** if we did not filter out "spammy" reviews. I feel I must also point out that it appears you have made no attempt at all to engage with the community. I looked to see if maybe you had had a negative experience that might have motivated this review, but found nothing at all. If you want toxic people to be handled, **report them.** While the moderation team does occasionally find and deal with issues proactively, the vast majority of problems are reported by other users to bring them to the attention of the mod team, who then handle it as soon as they can. If "toxic people are not being handled" as you claim, it's because YOU aren't pointing them out to us. We do what we can, but the community has its part to play in helping us do the best we can.

I recently came back to this game after leaving for 9 months over the RMT debacle. I'll get my biases out of the way immediately, I had these issues before the RMT decision, the RMT decision was just the straw that broke the camels back. Before then I could tell myself that the slim progress I was making after I stopped paying to play could return some dividends, however minor, if I found myself in desperate need. With the removal of those, and 9 months to cool down and play other time wasters, I now want to distill some criticisms that people need to see for this game and add my voice the chorus. -This game is pay to win in the extreme. It is a click-based gatcha game with similar progression rates to things like Clash of Clans, Raid Shadow Legends, etc. but with even less gameplay. It is, essentially, a slot machine for pixels. Now here comes the "technically you can play it for free" yeah, you can do the same in those gatcha games but only if you want to progress at 1/10 the rate and 1/100 the efficiency. Here it may be even worse, especially starting out. You're going to need to drop some cash, get really lucky, or play for months before you see even a modicum of progression. They try to hide "energy" behind their scouring mechanic where you wait real world hours to (maybe) get boxes that (maybe) contain progression elements. Or... you could always drop $20 and get them quicker? If you do not want a really penalizing gatcha run. Now. -The site mods and admins are all extremely deceitful and most are rude and aggressive on top of that. The owner himself fosters a vile environment and finds it acceptable to lash out and talk down to users merely asking questions (once again just read the RMT thread from about 9 months ago and see if that's the kind of guy you want to bring your problems to if you have any, I will especially point out where a user talked about trading with a staff member mere weeks before they implemented a ban on the RMT). -This ties back into my previous point but updates are slow, minor, and usually just facilitate more "fear of missing out" to drive sales. I have no illusions that the site is constructed in a way to make as much money as possible, and I truly believe the RMT debacle (seriously just look up real money trading Pokefarm and read staff comments, that'll give you more than any of these reviews) was nothing but another move to bolster sales. Finally, I'll add, there are plenty of time wasters elsewhere, there are other click based pokemon games skirting the lines of copyright infringement even. I would suggest trying one of those and giving that thread a peek I mentioned before trying this game out. At best it's a streamlined browser based gatcha with terrible customer service, and sometimes outright abusive behavior from staff.

without hypermode the game sucks

Without Hypermode, the game shuts down due to lack of money to keep the server running. Seems like a fair exchange to me.
