MODERATORS
Mobile games do (mostly) suck though.
A. For controls, power, and screen resolution, mobile is just the worst. If a game on mobile tries to imitate a controller, it takes up a while lot of screen space. If touch is used more like a mouse, I've never seen a game that needs touch specifically.
B. Mobile is a better platform for the shitty pocket casino games. When it's impossible to leave the device at home, it's much easier for a game to develop an addiction. That's why mobile games like clash of clans get users paying upwards if $100,000.
It also sucks that when you buy a game to own it often isnt maintained, so upgrading your phone or sometimed even just OS updates will break the game with no fix, no recourse. I got real fucking tired of losing my purchases to that shit.
Notably I played the ever living shit out of xcom enemy unknown and would have kept doing it too if it weren't for this issue.
