Comment on Old gamers don't understand what mobile gaming has become
atomicpoet@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoYou do realize that iOS alone has more paid premium games—without microtransactions—than the entire combined library of NES, SNES, N64, and GameCube, right?

Cool, that’s why half the games you listed are just gambling machines in disguise?

You sure are obsessed with people having fun in only your proscribed manner.

Nah, I’m obsessed with corporations not ruining kids lives just to get few more dollars.
Also, please, stop putting words into other people’s mouths.

Your premise would be true if kids were compelled to spend money. But I watch my kids’ spending habits like a hawk. If what you were saying were true, I’d notice transactions being made.
Which leads me to believe that you’re either exaggerating or deliberately engaging in moral panic because others are having fun in your non-preferred way.
My kid has spent more money on new Switch games than Roblox.
