Ah, I see you have never picked up a "1000 best games for Windows" CD.
There are a lot of low quality games to complain about. There are also a lot of high quality, new games to experience. 10 years from now, the low quality games will be forgotten, while the high quality games will be looked back on, fondly. Posts will be made comparing the "high effort, high quality games from 10 years ago" to the modern slop, and the cycle will repeat..
Ok if that is so tell me just 10 good quality mobile games today.
Balatro, Loop Hero, all three of the noteworthy Mihoyo games, Sword of Convallaria - I'm going to get flak for including gacha games, but these ones are surprisingly well designed and written games, despite predatory monetization practices - Stardew Valley, Dead Cells, Vampire Survivors...
I think we're kidding ourselves if we ignore that Among Us was a genuinely good game, despite being notorious brainrot zoomer bait.
I'm not sure why we shifted the goal post to mobile games, but the point stands.
Edit: I had to come back because I remembered how much I enjoyed Monster Hunter Stories on mobile, and the mobile version is actually the most complete version.
