Why do some people hate phone games?

>>383638485
They expect phone games to be Witcher 3 except on a phone.

Meanwhile, I can play most worthwhile roguelikes on the go and have kicked my MMO habit with F2P gachas.

They're usually shovelware, and if they're not they're filled with microtransactions.

Also, most genres just don't work on a phone. I think the only games I've tried on a phone that I thought worked well were puzzle games.

which ones?

>>383638767
>worse habit
I don't spend any money on gachas, meanwhile MMOs were hemorrhaging way more time and money

is that Peach's Castle in the background

Honestly RTS seems like a perfect fit with touch screen tech, is always hoped it would take off again with more powerful phones and tablets

But apparently the issue of most people being speds hasn't changed
>>
People don't usually like the ones that are curated by the stores. If you do a good search, you will obviously find some great stuff.
Roguelikes, card games, puzzle games, SRPGs and VNs are great on mobile.
>>
>>383638827
My favorites are Shattered Pixel Dungeon, NetHack, Sproggiwood (paid, got it in a humble bundle), and Red Rogue. Most of these aside from I guess NetHack would be considered medium roguelikes but they are much more mobile friendly than their more hardcore counterparts.

Also just downlaoded Buriedbornes which is some japanese rougelite, which isn't too bad.

>You lost this bullshit fight? wanna try out again for three lightnings? ;b
>Oops no lightnings? Checkout the store where you can buy crystals and use them to replenish your lightnings. ahah fun right? :b
>in alternative you can waste the ones you've been farming so far or wait several minutes until you can try again (timed even)
Well jeez anon, I dunno.

>>383638969
F2P games are designed to waste even more of your time because they want you to pay to speed up progression.
>>
>>383639497
wut, is this a skullgirls fighting game or a card game
>>
>>383639551
fighting game with bad controls
>>
>>383639538
I have never once paid in a f2p game so I guess I just have more self control than the target demographic.

t. played Hearthstone, Shadowverse, Eternal, FE Heroes, and other shit

Fighting rpg. It's the dame game but you have to level up the characters.

It's fucking bullshit and its up to the RNG what you get. I got about 6 Peascocks and I hate using that character. Meanwhile I only have one Valentine.

All I have on my phone right now is the Fallen London mobile app since my old one died not too long ago

XCOM Enemy Within mobile wasn't too bad, it just killed my battery, waiting patiently for NEO Scavenger mobile to come out

Because they've never played a good one before.

>>383640668
I've always wanted to get into Puzzles and Dragons or MPF but I feel like jumping into these games fucking 4 or 5 years late is just a waste
>>
>>383641238
It is a waste. With power creep so prevalent it's even more difficult to clear end game content when your roster is pitifully small. Unless you plan on paying out of your ears it's not worth installing.

Because touch screen only controls will never ever be good.

Why would I play any mobile game ever when I can emulate every GBA/GBC game?

Not the guy you are replying to, but there's a game called Soul knight that is great for quick sessions
>>
>>383638485

Several reasons

For starters there is NO quality control so you can have just about anyone make a game and put it on there, unfortunatley that ends up resulting in numerous clones or half-assed unplayable messes rushed to make a quick buck

Second, the heavy usage of Microtransations and mandatory PvP have resulted in the best players being the ones able to spend the most money instead of the ones with actual skill

Thirdly, A chunk of gaming markets have heavily shifted to mobile games in the past few years so it's quite annoying to hear that a new game in an older franchise you love so much is coming, only for it to be a Microtransaction heavy mobile game with no depth.

Just get the 3DS game, that one is bundled with the Super Mario version, you'll be spending less in the long run
