Flojomojo Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 There sure is a lot of nerdrage over the upcoming Diablo mobile game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digdugnate Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 i guess i don't get all the butthurt over the game- it's like Blizzard went out and killed a bunch of people's dogs or something. I've played Diablo since the original Diablo (i was 18 when it came out) so i guess that gives me enough of a pedigree, lol. *if* it has goofy pay-to-win barriers or is just a hot garbage game in gameplay or controls then i think people absolutely have a right to gripe. Jesus Christ, though, wait for the damn game to come out at least. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanooki Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 That's how I feel about it. I just see a bunch of pissed off entitled man(and lady)babies bitching and whining because they didn't get D4 or one of the early two remastered and updated into HD. Boo hoo. If the game turned out bad as you said, a whale abuser, or just plays like garbage fine -- roast em alive. But the thing is the company they got to make it has been making Diablo knockoffs and seem to have a decent system going with that as people come back for more, so they hired them to do a Diablo game. That company is known for doing F2P stuff that can get into whaling, but I mean given what Blizzard has done to rip people off with monthly fees in WoW for ages now, it's not beyond belief they'd rise above coining the crap out of Diablo players too on a mobile phone. It will either turn out well where it's F2P like Nintendo where the game works, and you pay for speed boosts and totally optional fluff, or it will be abusive F2P up front or more sneakily 10 hours into it so you're invested and more likely to get screwed them walk away. Let's just see how it turns out, then be happy or not about it. It's really not that hard. I for one like the look, but if it's whale bait, forget it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flojomojo Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 I just started Star Trek Fleet Command yesterday. It's just a clicker with timers and stuff, but the scope is huge and there's a lot to explore. It's set in the Kelvin timeline which is cool to me (I like the Giacchino music and Abrams lens flare) but probably not for everybody. Now I've got TWO Trek-themed idle games to keep track of, since I like Star Trek Timelines for different reasons. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digdugnate Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 i've been playing another iteration of the Boggle/Crossword type game from BitMango called 'Word Farm Cross'- it's pretty much the only game I've been playing on my phone lately. I just like word puzzles, I think. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bitmango.go.wordsfarmcross&hl=en_US 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flojomojo Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 "I'm Ping Pong King" It's like Activision Tennis, but instead of sending away for a patch, you can share moments on social media. Fun game, great graphics. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Video Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Run sackboy run. It's a typical run and jump game, but it looks amazing, and is simple. Based on little big planet. I don't know why I like these types of games, as I suck very much at them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanooki Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 I swear I saw this on here in another thread, pretty sure it was flojo, but I'm really tempted to snap up that PART TIME UFO game from Hal Labs (makers of Kirby) for ios/android(I think too.) Only $4 and has a lot going on, the tune digs into your skull so at least it's good. I just got side tracked with the Dragalia events this time of year along with Monsterboy.

Flojomojo Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 While I post a lot about mobile games, that wasn't me, as I've never seen that before. "More evil than a crane game," yikes. UFO On Tape is more my speed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flojomojo Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 OMG why have I been ignoring Shadowgun Legends? I know very well why -- the first game was a bland Gears of War knockoff, and the second game was a spazzy arena shooter. But this one, it's got a lot of snarky style and plenty of colors! I like it a lot. Major hat tip to Kotaku for calling it "Mobile Destiny." I didn't like Destiny, but with a little more humor, shorter missions, and most importantly, on my phone, and that changes everything. Recommended!

Deleted with malice. Best avoided unless you really like Star Trek, in which case, like me, you'll "play" til you hit the paywall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flojomojo Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Star Wars LEGO Microfighters Fly your little ship down an endless tunnel, don't hit the sides or your wings will pop off. Lots of vehicles and characters to collect. Seems completely free, with optional registration for an extra thing or two including leaderboards. Uses modern resolutions well. Good music, very cute. https://www.lego.com/en-us/themes/star-wars/games/microfighters-f0c5e34a88004b28b81add9457599553 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tanooki Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Ok that's the first time I've seen a Lego title that doesn't look like a cash grab, for little kids, or awful for mobile. Good catch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flojomojo Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Oh, it's totally for little kids. It just so happens to be fun for adults, too. It feels very "classic gaming" to me, except with the Crossy Road type of progression built in -- too bad there were no Atari 2600 games that did this! I really like the way your wings pop off when you mess up, but you can always pick up replacement parts along the way. Except they don't match, so you have a big Y-Wing pod on the side of your TIE Fighter. Tee hee hee! If you bother to make a LEGO signin, you can be my friend. The name is "Ms. FrillyWolf" (which was the default they gave me, heh) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mean on the kids to adults level like any of those lego star wars games go about it which this seems more in line with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonGrafx-16 Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 I've not once downloaded any mobile games and I never will. I have a few emulators but rarely play them. Touchscreens are not a good replacement for real buttons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I discovered that it can work with a controller, and can also rotate between portrait and landscape mode. I think landscape might be a little easier, but I'm not certain because I got really accustomed to portrait mode. One-handed games are a treat.
