Problem with those is portability and convenience. Work breaks, waiting rooms, etc., I’m not going to have a controller with me so a slideout keyboard works better. Any situation I’d play mobile games with a controller would probably be a situation I could just bring a Switch or Steam Deck.
I wish slide out keyboards would make a comeback on high end phones. I might actually play mobile games (but not gachas). Touch controls feel like garbage to me, not to mention blocking the screen with your thumbs.
You’re right but it’s good to still call it out I think.
Maybe I’m reading it wrong but it sounds like fast track p2w. You can pay to have an advantage while f2p players grind out the same power which is absolutely garbage game design. Even without new content, the playing field will never be even but it’s a safe bet that new p2w content will drop with some regularity making the problem even worse.
Ya that’s generally what I’ve done as well. Inbento is one of the few times I’ve enjoyed playing a mobile game.
