The Modern Issues with Mobile Gaming

Games like Angry Birds, Clash of Clans and Plants vs Zombies helped define mobile gaming for me when I was younger, however after more recently taking a look back at some of my old favourite games, it seems that most are either filled to the brim with adverts now, or helped push mobile gaming into a state of pay to win (or pay to not wait for timers, I guess).
Music used:
- Fossil Falls - Super Mario Odyssey
- Party Candies - Candy Crush Saga
- Plants vs Zombies - Moongrains (horde) - (I think this is the name of the song, there are quite a few with the same name that all sound similar lol)
- Dire dire docks - Super Mario 64

One thing that I think I should mention is that you can get around some ads by playing with wifi and data turned off! However, that kinda sucks considering most things on your phone only work by using them lol. This’ll be the last video for about 2-3 weeks while I take a little break, I spoke about it a bit in my last community post if you wanna read into it, but for now stay safe and I’ll see you soon! :)

I remember playing Bobby Carrot on my first phone for hours and hours, it's amazing to see how far mobile gaming has come

Good old Bobby carrot :’) - I have very vague memories of some sort of frogger-like game on my mums old phone, except you were a yeti I think lol, how times have changed!

I gave up on mobile gaming a while back because of how unoriginal it is. Every company rn is riding every new trend that comes out rather than sticking with what they are good at. And when they add that "new trendy feature" it's usually done in a soulless way in order make as much money as possible. Rn there are video game companys make as many video games as possible no matter how shity they are they just pump them out. Mobile Video games companys need to stop with the live service freemium model. It is because of it that nobody is taking mobile gaming seriously and why everybody doesn't want to buy any mobile video games

Agreed. It feels like almost every new mobile game coming out is just another cash grab using very similar gameplay to about 1000 other games. Just look at that liquid/potion puzzle game thing, there are literally dozens of clones doing the exact same thing with no new twist on it whatsoever - maybe one day that’ll die off and mobile stores will encourage new and original ideas!
