In the last 5-7 years I've noticed that mobile games have devolved info always online p2w shit

What the fuck happened?

The only good games on phone are now emulators and a few Foss games

They always sucked.

I don't know man, I had my fair share of fun with a pair of Nyan Cat games, the original Plants Vs Zombies, Nimble Quest (I just got this again on Android and cracked the heck out of it with Lucky patcher, and still suck lol), Tiny Wings, Angry Birds and I could be missing some others.

Infinity blade

Galaxy On Fire 2 was great, but Elite Dangerous on PC later kicked the absolute crap out of it.

Oh yeah, I fired up my old iPhone 6s to play the Infinity Blade II, no regrets!

These were originally the exception, but all eventually followed the rule.

No they didn’t. I have a 1st gen iPad loaded with old versions of popular games (e.g. Jetpack Joyride, Angry Birds) and there are literally zero ads and in-app purchases.
