(+) Yeah! (+)

Specifically franchised mobile games for existing series of games (like Fire Emblem Heroes)

I say yes. I wish they weren't so lucrative. I feel like their success takes away from their main series titles. I'll never buy or support a mobile game

nah, pretty easy to completely ignore.

If they really wanted to, they could use some the money to help take more chances elsewhere.

I mean if they put their efforts into them instead of making games for console/pc then it doesn't matter if we as individuals ignore them if other ppl participate

Id still play PGo even if it meant nobody got other Pokemon games. I don't see how it's my responsibility to not play something I enjoy so others can play something they enjoy. PGo is different tho. Cause if you use it right, it actually encourages you to go the literal extra mile when exercising. It's the only game that objectively improves my health.

Yeah. They tend to be gambling grindfests that bank on nostalgia more than a solid game in their own right.

Is "meh" an emotion?
That's the usual response.

nope just ignore them

Nah. To use Mario Kart as an example, I see people looking at the updates for Mario Kart Tour and saying "oh man imagine if we had this amount of support for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe!". But if Mario Kart Tour was a thing, I doubt 8D would get more support. It's not a case of Mario Kart Tour content vs Mario Kart 8 Deluxe content. It's a case of Mario Kart Tour content vs nothing.
