I love Stardew Valley but why the fuck would you buy a touch-control only piece of shit? Just get it on PC.

you can't mod SV on mobile

FPBP, eternally

I'm so fucking mad about Mario run.
If people had just fucking brought it Nintendo might be making quality mobile games instead of free to play garbage.

This was always the case, mobile fags don't like paying in full

That's why Mario Run was downloaded a bazillion times but only bought 100 times

That's not Nintendo's goal with mobile though

Regardless of the approach, the entire point is to use them as advertisement for the switch

Majority of mobilefags never pay anything for their games. Developers make money with the few people who spend disgusting amounts on microtransactions.

>playing Stardew on a phone

Dude, people don't PLAY phone games, they tap on them for a bit before work/bed and wait for all their gacha upgrades to finish building.

How do we kill all the whales?

You can't, some people will always be fucking retarded with money no matter what you do. My roommate spends literally hundreds of dollars a month on 3 different gacha games (Granblue, Azur Lane, and the Fate one).

Make better games without any bullshit.

I have Stardew Valley on PC, it is easier to mod on PC, and I have genuinely good games on the mobile that didn't cost a penny or cost me far less than Stardew does.
The big problem with paid mobile ports is that some people like Square-Enix and Capcom tend to charge over $15 for each of their games.
Of the paid games I did buy I spent roughly $30 on 34 high quality titles thanks to a combination of sales and "$x off $y purchase" coupons, spontaneously free store credit, and the few rare titles that went on sale at $0.
That's his own dumb fault for actually spending money in gacha games.

Umm sweetie, you know that Yea Forums is now a Christian LARP website right?

anyone who would have paid for SDV has it on another system
and of course i own it on the abandoned system with no multiplayer

>free store credit

I never get free store credit on the play store but everyone else I know does, no idea why.

Most mobile fags are in fact Chinese wage-slaves. They wear adult diapers and have a 3-hour commute to a 10-hour shift. They only come home home to sleep. They play shitty mobile games during their commute.

They also have a backwards culture that values winning over all else. Cheating is totally fine if you can get away with it. So nobody complains about p2w. Game devs realize this and make shitty p2w games for people commuting while shitting in adult diapers.

Chinese backwards winning culture is also why 99% of cheaters in other games come from China and why China should be regionlocked from any competetive online game.

Honestly. The big money in mobile games isn't game purchases, it's 5% of players who spend ridiculous amounts on mtx because they have no self-control or come from a terrible culture.

That's why these games are designed to appeal to those rather than normal people.

BECAUSE I HAVE IT ON PC MAYBE YOU DUMB FAG

At least you tried to make a good point.

Golf Peaks is comfy.

i was looking at sales you retard, 10k after a few days is nothing with userbase like this

PlayGoogle apparently hates you. There's seemingly no outright pattern. Sometimes its around holidays, sometimes its around birthdays, sometimes there's no damn reason for it I just suddenly get an email from Google saying "FREE $1 STORE CREDIT (spend on game that costs at least $3)".

Multiplayer is lame in the first place. Switch really is the best system for Stardew as it's portable, has a big screen, and has a proper controller. I've been playing it on my lunch breaks for months now and it's comfy as fuck.

I have it on PC, others I know have it on console, why would we ever want it on mobile?

>why would we ever want it on mobile

Because you want it portable and don't own a Switch or Vita. Switch and Vita are the best two systems for it, as it's just begging to be on a portable.

That's not how mobile market works. They should've made first season of the game free to lure F2P junkies in.

Stardew Valley is Rune Factory for babies

>great game
hehe. It was mediocre at best

its #1 top selling

No. I really like both Stardew and Rune Factory, but they're going for different things. Personally I prefer Rune Factory, but I absolutely get why others prefer Stardew.

When I said console, I was mainly thinking of the Switch

>WHY WOULD I BUY THAT WHEN ALL THESE OTHER GAMES ARE FREE
The reason I don't buy nice, upscale games like that though is because they tend to have really pesky DRM and are generally battery hogs

Phones are strictly for playing SNES games while on the shitter.

wrong, its for playing gba and ds turn based games.

you could just mod it, not on phones though obviously

People are well aware by now that traditional games will most likely suck ass with touch controls. I can't think of a single phone port that makes sense to me other than grim fandango.

I didn't like Stardew. None of the characters were good nor were the events they're all boring.

I'm glad the game sold like shit on mobile. Only PC gamers deserve good games like SV. Mobilecucks should stick to salivating at candy crush

phones are for making phone calls you retards

"free"

Hey, I'm the other guy who bought Super Mario Run. Still do Remix10 every now and then. Really wish they'd add some levels to it. Or give us any new content other than boosted item events for the shitty decoration aspect.

This, I learned my lesson with Cave games, bought 3 of them and they all don't work anymore, at least on PC there's always some workaround, with phones you are just fucked.

phone... calls?

The World Ends with You and 999 make sense - super touch screen heavy DS ports

What are some good mobile games without or with very little gacha/p2w mechanics?

Not smartphones. Smartphones are actually worse at phone calls than just regular ass flip phones.

Emulation. That or learn to pirate android games.

>Android
There's your problem
On iPhone it beat Minecraft and became top selling mobile game.

Lemme put it to you this way OP, imagine if somebody put out a video game on the PS4 for 300 dollars. Would you buy it?
That's how fucking stupid it is to put a game out on mobile that isn't free or more than 1 dollar, it's a COMPLETELY different audience

Chaos Rings 3
Oddmar
WitchSpring 3
Oceanhorn
+ all the paid games.

>with userbase like this

literally no one plays mobile besides shitty puzzle games or brick breakers. people don't want complicated games on their phones. they want to tap their screens occasionally and figure out how to beat a level.

>Emulation
Already have a flashed 3ds for that
>Pirate
I was planning to do that anyways, last phone game i played was angry birds like 10 years ago

Completely wrong.

If that was the case then games like Shadowgun Legends, Marvel Future Fight, Contest of Champions, etc. would not have millions of downloads.

>downloads

how many people do you think downloaded it and played it once before never opening it again?

So that's why they play battle royale games on their phones, because they're super simple, suuure.

No way to know. Applies to every app there is.

FPS games are extremely simple.

>It costs money to play games

>It doesn't cost money to play games but you have to put money in it by little quantity

Seems interesting, thanks user

Less than 1%?

but it says #1 top selling??

Don't say literally if you don't know what it means.

don't ever reply to my posts again

I love Through the Ages :)

I thought they constantly bugged you about Homeowner's insurance.

SEGA ruined the Sonic Remasters. Sonic 1 and 2 are filled with adds even if you bought the paid versions. Some phones won't even boot up Sonic 1 all.
