I blame the Asians.

world of troonycraft mobile when?

How is Minecraft as cheaply made by one guy as it is and going on to be the highest selling game ever not in the top 10?
It's not very profitable to sell 100 million copies at $5.
people say he sold it for 5 dollars at any point which is completely false. The starting price was around 12.25 before tax
The article is reporting false information. They want people to think those mobile games are more profitable. They actually aren't but they want you to think they are so they fudge numbers, say certain things don't count and twist the parameters and metrics to suit the results they want people to see.

I don't understand. Why do you think that article is responsible for Minecraft's profits not becoming one of the top ten most profitable games?
Because Microsoft paid 2.5b for it
No Genshin? No Raid Shadow Legends?
Why do people drop so much money on trash shit mobile games?
Whales are literal morons, anon. The fact that they genuinely cope with the line
>if it wasn’t this it would be something more expensive, so really I’m saving money!
Without seeking help is proof of this.
That’s not counting the subhumans that obsessively spend so they can be the best at a fricking mobile game
If they are so moronic how come they make more money than me?
They're fun and respect your time. Nobody wants to spend money on a game that lasts 10 hours.
I play a lot of mobile games for beer money, and every game I play is always filled with 40+ year old people dropping half their paychecks on it. Then there I am trying to complete the requirement to get my money, while these boomers are making my life a living hell because they're always way stronger than I am playing for free.
I always try to join the strongest guild in the game so I don't get fricking ganked before I cash out and delete the game so I see them chatting all the time about how badass they are for spending hundreds of dollars on the game. I know they're older people because they use their facebook account photos in the games. They're online on these games almost 24/7 too like it's their whole lives which I suspect it is to them.
Note that I'm talking about games that don't have the gameplay or presentation of Diablo Immortals. I'm talking about the copy paste games like Mafia City and shit. Boomers and Koreans run these games like they're real gangs.
That's how brand loyalty work. They convinced themselves that this is the greatest thing ever and nothing will be better to spend money on compare to it.
Mobile game economics system is inspired from the alcohol industry. 60% of profit come from less than 1% of the player base
Depressing
taking advantage of addictions
and people being moronic.
>still thinking nu-gaming isn't for fricking morons
>2022

Diablo 3 brought them 300 mil in one day.
100 million sounds like a lot, but that's what Diablo 3 made in its first week. Genshin Impact makes BILLIONS by comparison. Diablo Immortal was a fairly big flop by gacha standards.
>Our album's sales is 1 million behind Michael Jackson's Thriller, what a massive failure.
Except in that metaphor, Blizzard IS Michael Jackson, they just released a sequel album to thriller and everyone hates it and it tanked their public image even further, plus it didn't even make more money than the original. Indeed, what a massive failure.
Lol you guys really think diablo immortal will stop making money now? 1 year from now they will cross 1 billion in profits
everyone has already stopped playing it. I mean, I'm sure there are a couple of whales left who will keep spending, but the vast majority of people who played the game 2 months ago have quit and moved on.
source: my feelings
The very idea of gacha gaming is extremely foreign to me, i just don't understand how people can find these games fun. let alone sink thousands of dollars on them
too much disposable income and they have nothing to do with it, and once you get started its hard to stop because of sunk cost fallacy
when I finally stopped being a NEET and got a job, I became even stingier with my gaming purchases.
Pretty sure an average wagie can drop $100 on gacha games every month. That's why they say the average age of a genshin player is like 35
>Kim Kardashian tv show brought more profit than Cannes Film Festival Movie.
Oh no, what a surprise that mainstream casuals are made of morons.
y'all live in fake reality
touch grass and have sex
GTAKings, why are we so great?
Imagine how much micro transaction shit there is going to be in the next one.
You can look at RDR Online.
>9 of the 10 most profitable games of all time are mobile games
and 0 of them are released by activision blizzard lmao
5 whales paid over $10,000,000 each? Crazy
what's the chance that these are fake numbers?
if they were to fake numbers they would pull out something impressive and not this pathetic show
>50k $ in a month
it can probably cover server costs
Since its only thing they can provide now, i say yes.
I doubt they're fake since it's a gacha with 23 different premium currencies, and multiple tiers of spending that you can't even see untill you've spent enought money. There was an entire time of psychologist behind this game and making it as addictive as humanly possible
100,000,000%
>just vote with your wallet bro
>IRL losers pay to be successful in mobile games
Many such cases
Always weird to hear these games make so much. I haven't installed a mobile game in years and i have no desire to ever start really. I never hear about them on gaming news channels but they must clearly have a big playerbase.
I spent 5 euro on Diablo: Immortal after seeing how much it makes reddit seethe
diablo 3 made 25% more in 24 hours
I'm pretty easy going dude and don't mind throwing a hundred bucks or so a month for mobile games, but Diablo Immortal that was created to sucker in people like me, somehow I never did spend a dime on it.
Since there's no waifu in it, the only reason to spend is to get a good powertrip from the extra fast power upgrade, but the gameplay is way too lacking for me to care about the numbers going up. They removed the ragdoll effect for the enemies and it looks worse than D3 did on 360. I'm just not having fund with the game as the game is.
How do people burn thousand dollars on this unfun game?
People don't understand that getting even 1 cent per ad really REALLY fricking adds up when the ad is seen by billions of people every minute.
>post fake source
>literally 0 valid information on actual sales
>Ganker
>WTF WHAO THATS INSANE
This place used to be good
>game jurnos
A daily reminder that these are the same guys who will tell you that League of Legends is the biggest game on the planet despite the fact that League not even in the top 10 most played games on the planet. Only a complete moron would believe their lies.
>gross revenues
the devs factually only got a fraction of this money, and that's before taxes
>to developers
Yea.....right. Its the ""developers"" that are getting their cut and not the fricking manager and shareholders lol.
Lmao even

Elden Ring made 900M in 5 weeks.
never played it , never going to , blizzisraeliteizzard is dead to me after the fiasco fo 3 they pulled.
i made 2k from RMAH then they shut it down and i could no longer justify playing 5-10hours a day grinding the same place so some moron buys my 80% perfect rolls for 150-250€then i saw what was going on with REALLY good rolls and i facepalmed.
to me it was a fun passtime like virtual collecting bottles and turning them into money.
i got addicted to the fact that anything i could find could be turned into paypal money , that withdrawn and turned into fricking a hot latina hooker for an hour.
i did that all the time , cant imagine ever giving out money to have a chance at getting something im sposed to get anyhow.
never buying or playing anything from blizzard.
they died with WC3TFT and WOW-Vanilla , was downhill from there with everything.
they fricking copied Teamfortress 2 and made it ... WORSE!
everything needs an oshit button , ultimates , and their own aids HP / MP / Moveset.
there is no joy to be gotten from nublizz , you are either extremely autistic or lonely , combination of both if you still have hope that anything of value will come from these greedy Black folk.
TLDR
>played all the blizz games from lost vikings dia1 to wc3 broodwar d2lod , wow - vanilla - tbc thats the real blizz to me everything after that turned into aids , played WOW-MOP with my longtime internet friends and i had no reason to play anything inside the game after raids were done.
Blizzdrones are the most pathetic fanboys in existence, on par with nintencultist.
Why spend all your money on Diablo Immortal when you could just go and play Diablo 1 or 2?
Every time
WoW and FF14 aren’t mobile games.
And thats a goo-
Actually no wait, thats terrible for the future of games
What do you want us to do when you cloak gambling as a video game? I'm just curious? Do you want us to clap? Praise you as geniuses? Get on our knees and worship the very ground you walk on? Video games have been in a death spiral for at least the last decade. That's why you call them mobile games and not video games because they are completely different things and this is a board dedicated to video games. If you weren't such a stupid fricking moron you could adhere to the culture of the board and the basic rules of the website you are on. But we all know you can't do that because you are of a lower level of intelligence than even the dumbest gorilla Black person on this planet.
I also want a piece of the gacha gravy train.
