I get what you're trying to point out, but I actually didn't mind it. People have downplayed a lot of what Biden has gotten done with the house and senate that was handed to him, and it was nice to hear some of the work the Executive branch has accomplished laid out.

There's way more focus on the bullshit of the SCOTUS and Legislative branches because that's where all the doom and gloom are, and we know that's what sells.

I was so busy focusing on the guns that I didn't even notice the hooves until my friend pointed them out...

I think you might be a bit behind on the mobile game market. Stuff like the Resident Evil Village and the Resident Evil 4 remake are on Apple arcade and actually playable. Furthermore, you can stream both PS+ games and Gamepass games on phones now. There's an emerging market of having single player games from last gen consoles ported to mobile and PC at the same time, as well. Lemmy might tell you that the Steam deck is the mobile gaming device of the future, but that's very much because Lemmy is a techy, older, Western niche audience with disposable income. Buying a phone is much easier to justify than buying a "gaming machine".

I agree with you about the monetization of gatcha games, but that's not going away, especially when people playing stuff like Genshin Impact or Honkai think it's "worth it" because they are higher fidelity games that they can play without having to put the up front costs of a console/PC.

I can't comment much about emulation, I just got into it. But I installed Dolphin onto my old Pixel just as their servers got borked from the achievements update, so I have to go back and actually play around with it.

Man, I just wanted public tomato throwing back, not the whole medieval punishment arsenal.

Absolutely unrelated to the video, but Youtube comments are something else man...

Real ones would just starve.

(Just kidding, money anxiety + executive dysfunction is it's own level of hell. Hope you're doing better now)

"Good" is subjective, but mobile gaming is huge.

During the survey, more than 68 percent of internet users stated they played video games on smartphones, making them the most popular gaming devices among global gaming audiences.

It's an interesting read.

You have never encountered executive dysfunction.

Mobile gaming.

Lemmy isn't really the iPad baby generation's demographic.

It is. Unmedicated I can have a full cup of coffee an hour before bed and still sleep like a baby

Great layman's explanation.
