There are more people on this board posting from their phones than from their PCs. Let's discuss the current state of mobile gaming.
>>
It's shit, and not even in a "I think this is kind of bad, so I'm gonna call it shit" way. There's so much low effort shovelware out there, and everything that might otherwise be ok is packed with microtransactions. it feels like there aren't any real games on the entire store. Seriously, is there a single worthwhile mobile game out there? I'm talking about a game that's ONLY on mobile too, so no emulators or ports.

I'm fine for just installing snes/gba emulators and playing it on my phone
>>
>>385192523
Spaceplan is pretty good.

But it is also on PC.

Gacha games can be fun but not everyone of them is worthwhile and most are "weeb shit" so western audiences are stuck with their shitty fallout shelters and supercell

>eriously, is there a single worthwhile mobile game out there? I'm talking about a game that's ONLY on mobile too, so no emulators or ports.

Dragon Quest IV

>but that's a port!
It's the definitive version seeing as it's the only complete western release of the game, every other version has had central content removed.
>>
>>385194115
That's cool I guess, but it's still a port. I'm asking if there are any good games tailor made for mobile devices.
>>
>>385192523
Because people can't afford to be neets at home all day and browse from work.
>>
>>385194203
To get something tailored means to have an existing product altered for better fit, so:

Dragon Quest IV

The main factor restricting mobile gaming is the lack of a convenient, reliable input device.

>>385194694
derived from Gachapon
capsule toy dispensers from Japan

basically a gacha game is one where you pay an amount of in-game credit or real money to get "cards" or "medals" in the game
these have levels of rarity (usually N, R, SR, UR)
what you get is completely random

It's very hard to find quality games in the current market. I try to stick to games I can play on my Nvdia Shield Tablet without having to use the touchscreen and instead either using the button mapping feature or hope it has some form of controller support.
>>
>>385193908
First time I've seen this mentioned here, not surprising but still, it is an actual decent little game that mimics LoL. If you are into that.

I live near a big city with a balanced, active Ingress community. Travel and data costs can get a bit high sometimes, but the people are cool. I've driven across the country to do a few of the major events over the past few years, and those have been really fun.

I've played a handful of gachas without putting any money in. They were entertaining until I hit the inevitable progression walls, or I got lucky and pulled whatever the strongest units are at the time and clear the game's content without even having to try.

Are there any good mobile games? All I've ever played in the last 8 years was emulated games. That's it. Astraware had some really good mobile games for Windows Mobile with the stylus, but after that it went down hill when everything went to shit with fat fingering controls.

pic related. Had some excellent games and could play SNES games flawlessly with the keyboard as a controller. I actually beat Link to the Past for the first time on this phone.
>>
>>385193967
Since we have no way to prove it either way, I choose to believe you're full of shit.

If there was anything fun to play on my phone I wouldn't be shitposting would I?

Is phone captcha COMPLETELY FUCKED for anyone else?

It doesn't fucking work and the dissapearring captcha is slow as shit
>>
>>385199920
It's slow on my PC as well, and the other types take a million years to work. No idea what the problem is. So I finally switched to legacy captcha.

Download Clover. Don't use 4chan through your phone's browser.

It's like they're making the captchas complete shit in purpose to make you buy a pass.

legacy captcha is the shit (not sure how convenient it would be in mobile though)

Clover uses legacy captcha and it's infinitely more efficient than tapping squares for five minutes.

Mobile is mostly constrained by its lack of controls. Sure you can get a gamepad, but 99% of the market won't bother and just uninstall your game instead.

My family is buying me a fancy new phone samsung galaxy s8. I haven't had a new phone since the iphone 4s about a million years ago, so I'd completely missed the ball on mobile gaming.

Are there any fun RPGs? I know some final fantasy games have mobile ports but i've heard bad things in passing.
>>
>>385207649
I am serious when I say that most mobile games are 99.95% trash. There are almost no games on phones worth playing that you couldn't play on an emulator on PC.

The few mobile games that are worth playing don't last long in their fun factor. Any time or money you seriously might consider using to play a mobile game is way more worth using on something else.

There is only one game I've enjoyed on my phone, and it used to be a free flash game (could still be on PC too, not sure) is a game called "Kingdom Rush" which I got for 99c once. It's fun.

Currently playing this piece of junk. Already spent $30 on it. It's worth it because you get tons of speed-ups and resources per dollar so you barely have to wait for anything to finish building.

But you can't just upgrade the main building(Citadel)over and over again, you have to fill other requirements, so it gets a bit tedious. And the research tree is too much to bear sometimes.

I've been playing Heroes of Incredible Tales for over a year now, and I have a high end PC which gets little use other than running bluestacks on which I play HIT when I'm home. The game's main appeal is the pvp. The combat is Tera like and it's years ahead of any other mobileshit, heck it's better than what you would find in most other mmos and arpg's.

I haven't spent a cent on it and I'm one of the strongest players in pve and pvp. There are people who have dropped 5-10k $ on this game and I've beaten them with my low lvl alts, since the game is skill based.

It is. But the controls are so bad.
Even the things that is side stuff, that looks like Switch joycons are gigantic unwieldy monsters of failed designs.

When all you need is some way to add 1 or 2 shoulders per side, and some barely clickable dpad + 4 buttons.

Black Survival is a great game on mobile devices.

It's a bad phone game though since matches require 15-25 minutes of your undivided attention. If you want to see some matches in English with English commentary check out Trump's videos on it, though he only has two at the moment.

Gatcha is fucking gambling and should be regulated much harshlier.

what the hell, how could something like that work well on a phone?
>>
>>385209508
It really doesn't. Its external controller or bust, if you want to do more than building stuff in your starting point.
There is also a bunch of Punch Out clones(i.e Infinity Blade) that controls poorly because quick swiping is not a good mechanic.

Typing on a 40 character keyboard is already painful on phone. Thats a little more than 10 characters for 3 lines.

Now image trying to hit one pixel, at 640x480. Or even one pixel at 256 × 224, which is NES resolution.
Its painful. And a lot of games do that. Or they had dpad input, which is painful to do on phone without a external controller.
Even for a one button game, you would be better off using the + or - zoom keys, because the input is far superior.
>>
>>385210625
I think the point where you accept that you need a external controller to play, is where you accept that phone gaming has weaknesses.
That should be ignored, so that the genres can grow stronger.
