Apex is fine on PC for me, but mobile is just so irritating to play. These games that they port to mobile have way too many keybinds or the controls are too complex to be playable on a mobile device.

The only pc to mobile game that I can handle is Stardew Valley. The rest of them are too hard to control and/or see.

I'd agree if I enjoyed Stardew Valley. It's like objectively a good mobile port, I just find the game boring even on PC.

Ahahahahaha, this looks like a typical mobile shooter. Especially during the learning process, when you just downloaded the game and you get a lot of additional windows or donation offers that you cannot miss.

All the mobile games I try are nothing like the ads. Don't really play on mobile much, but not it's basically only strategy game ports (Advance Wars 2, Z).

Vampire Survivors is pretty good on mobile! Obviously better on PC, but not bad.

Ooh! If you're interested in Z, keep an eye out for Warpaws, coming out this year. Apparently it's inspired by Z, and (finally) features air units too :D .

Before I even did keyboard videos, I posted video game soundtracks, including this HQ version of the Volcanic theme from Z, over 10 years ago now xD .

I pretty much just play Dokkan Battle and Mega Man X Dive on mobile. I leave Night Of The Full Moon installed cause I like to play that every now and then, it's a wonderful game.

It's difficult to find good games in the store since the featured ones are total garbage, and ya got to wade through all the crap to find a gem.
All the kids at my work play the **** out of that Survivor.io game

No Limit Drag Racing 2.0 is my main time killer right now, along with some occasional WorldBox.

Also got the curse of Pokemon Go in my veins again.

I really enjoy Warhammer 40K Tacticus. With enough grinding you don't need to spend any money to unlock stuff, and it involves actual strategy.

Phinix,  Tp4 is looking at these games.  Maybe we can't say the developers are part of any evil plot.

But does the outcome not boil down to teaching kids that violence and pointing a gun at someone is the answer to all problems?

We all played these games growing up. It's all we've ever known, so it may not look so radical, but it's cute anthropomorphic animals killing each other with guns, with a clearly defined winner and loser, alive and dead.

Baby steps towards,  all our other forms of entertainment via Gun Culture.

The indoctrination towards conflict and violence starts very early.
