Mobile games don't qualify as games. They're riddled with micro transactions and ads, and I would know... I'm complicit in this, as I'm translating their games, of which the cash shops are a noticeable chunk.
May unity milk them till the udder produces nothing but pus.
What uh…. Games are not riddled with micro transactions these days? Do you consider console/pc games riddled with micro transactions not games?
What is your definition of a game?
Games before 2010. Nowadays: Elden Ring, Baldurs Gate 3, Armored Core 6. Games where the publisher doesn't try to nickel and dime you exist.
Little Inferno. Pathos. Shadowrun & Shadowrun: Dragonfall. Most everything on FDroid.
I have a ton of mobile games from Humble Bundle that don't have any ads
Which Pathos?
Those are all games I install from APK & play on my phone. What the fuck are you on about?
