Current Events > Mobile game false advertising and plagiarism is out of control.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Saw an ad for a shitty phone game and it was using gameplay footage from fucking Total War or
some shit.

What can be done about this?

Wrong. The Germans encountered significant server lag when facing Russia and it cost them the match.

The Japanese were camping hardcore but then the Americans got their match ending nuke killstreak.

I'm going to hell.

I hate those ads that show the game as entirely 3d but when you DL it, the only way to see the actual game, it's a 2d shitty fucking game like clash of clans.

95% of mobile games are clash clones.

And then theres the games that use characters straight out of Warcraft. The app store and google play need to fucking delete themselves from the world and come back with some fucking quality control.

When mobile gaming first became a thing, there were actually quite a few decent games, mobile entries in long running series like dead space, etc.. But in app purchases completely and utterly destroyed mobile gaming. For every star warts kotor port, there's 250,000 clash of clans clones, these days

Anyone who listens to Pandora without premium has probably heard the God forsaken final fantasy 15 mobile game ad a billion times.

And people literally play them, and waste hundreds on microtransactions.

Dumbasses will always ruin it for the rest of us.

The Final Fantasy mobile game ads make me laugh because they make it look like the game has modern console graphics.

There are people who pay thousands on them. No joke. Some Chinese guy has spent over $25,000 on game of war.

The mobile market and how much people spend on it is precisely why triple A publishers are trying to tap into that with loot boxes and pay to win mechanics

There was one game that presented itself as a first-person tower defense game (Kingdom of Avalon)

Needless to say I was real disappointed lol
