None can compare.

Just tried it.

Lot of ads. Seems very pay to win.

Just tried it myself.

Its okay, I like it but the ads are a tad annoying.

The "adds" only appear when you log in and its only news feed of the new events.

Once you get 6 star characters the game becomes addictive as hell just check some gameplay vids on youtube if you are a Bleach fan this game is a must have.

It starts off slowly off course but once you get a bit further it is awesome I have been playing for 810 days now and havent spent a single dollar.

There's also the constant loading.

Every time you start it, every time you enter a mission.

I also don't get the arena. It claims you can control special abilities, but all I saw
was the AI fighting. Got to watch my team of two get beat down by a team of three.

At level 5, so I'll stick with it a little more.

I鈥檓 at 4...

I don鈥檛 see how it could be that much better though...

Pvp is only worth trying when you will have 6 stars it is AI controlled you can only use the special once you get the purple soul bomb.

Shadowgun Legends had promise. Sort of a f2p mobile Destiny.

Unfortunately, the thing keeps crashing. Looks to be an IOS thing. If you have android, and it sounds interesting to you, you might want to give it a try.

Hmm, I suppose I could try an emulator...

Wow, Gamelofts N.O.V.A 3 is free now. Lost it when my old tablet died,
looks like I can finish it.

I was one of the suckers who paid 7 dollars for a game chock full of IAP. But it's actually a pretty decent game. Sort of like Halo and Gears on mobile.

Just tried a game called Puzzle and Dragons. Pretty neat match 3 game, where you go through dungeons with groups of monsters, fighting other monsters. Sort of a Pokemon type game.

Seems more fun then games like Candy Crush or Marvel Puzzle Quest.

I thought they lost hype a while ago.

I feel like a haven鈥檛 heard from league as much as I have heard in the past.

Glad to hear that they鈥檙e stil big.


I think the novelty of "omg most played game of all time" has worn off, but people mistake that for no one playing it. Data is hard to come by, but I've still seen it top the charts in certain months for pc games. They're still pulling in boatloads of money with imitators popping up everywhere and it's still possibly the largest E-sports scene of any game.

I mean there's a college circuit for League and it's being included at the 2018 Asian Games as a demonstration title for esports.

All of this in preparation for potential inclusion at the 2024 Olympics. (As a demo. Possibly full blown Olympic game at a later date.)

Yeah, love it or hate it, League is here to stay.

It is. They are remarkably true to the spirit of the Soulsborne games. It's a better game than a lot of similar attempts with way higher budgets too.

I'll have to consider that one.

You were a Souls fan right?

This one is a little closer, structurally, to Demon's Souls in particular. You venture out from a Nexus(which is just a character select/skill shop screen) and venture into levels. Rather than in-stage bonfires, you will return to the Nexus to spend your gold and such. You progress further into the level until you can defeat the boss, at which point progress is saved.

Of course, as I said, it's not a 1:1 match. It's more linear in design, so you can't just go wherever. And the classes are actually characters with storylines, so less customization. The mage is the mage. The warrior is the warrior. Etc. Still, the playstyles they give you have diverse enough mechanics that most people will enjoy at least one. Most likely multiple.

That's the Steam version, but the freemium mobile version is plenty fun.

Who are these people who pay for mobile garbage? Especially endless runners. WHY would you pay into a game that never ends, and has no point beyond endless playing?

Oh right, they've been doing that with World of Warcraft for years. 馃槇

Yeah, the freemium games are a trap, unless you just really like that game.

That said, the premium ones, where you pay upfront for a finished product, are often pretty good. I'm surprised most people are only mentioning F2P games here, but I'll go ahead and mention some ones I play.

I feel like I have to mention Shadowverse. If you like CCG's it's a great, faster paced alternative to Hearthstone. I have tons of fun with it, and there's generally a top tier deck you can make without investing ridiculous amounts of time and/or money in each expansion. Very free player friendly in general.

Honkai Impact 3rd: Extremely weeb game, but great for broke folks as well. You never feel like much is really barred from you, and the gameplay is solid. It feels more like a proper action game, where you're not just a ball of stats. You need to actually understand when to attack, defend, or counter. There's also unique movesets among the characters and the music is pretty neat most of the time. I never really feel pressed for stamina, and there's tons of events and such. I haven't been on much lately, but it's one of the few I actually got into. If you can get past some cliche anime stuff, it's really fun. I haven't dropped money on it, but I would totally understand if someone did. My one big complain is the lack of a quick complete option. They have an option that essentially turns your character into god mode, but you still have to actually grind the level yourself.

DC Mobile Legends, Marvel Strike Force, Marvel Future Fight are some more good ones.

If you like MOBA's then Vainglory(League basically), Paladin's Strike(Top Down Overwatch basically), Planet of Heroes, Heroes Arena, etc

Black Survival is an interesting twist on the online Battle Royale concept, in that it's 100% point and click. The voices can be lol at times, but it's fun if you enjoy that kinda thing. It's a massive battery killer though.

I like Eredan Arena, CCG, too. I went back to it though, and you definitely hurt if you are a free player. That roulette system is super hard to grind with.

I grew disillusioned with paid apps after buying several, only for them to go freemium later. And, they had tons of iap, so they were trying to have their cake and eat it, too.

The only one I'd buy now, are games I already own on Steam and know what their all about, like FTL: Faster Then Light.

I might get Super Mario Run, maybe.

Mario Run sucks.

Looks like you can play Toad Rally and Remix all you want without unlocking World Tour anyways, so I might not bother. Unless Rally and Remix have paywalls I'm not seeing yet.

Looking into Mario Run, I learned about Fire Emblem Heroes, so that's an instant download.

Feel free to mention paid apps, too.

There was this one awesome reverse tower defense game I bought years back. Almost a vector type art style, where you buy various tanks and upgrades, to get through levels. It was pulled from US stores in a mass culling. 馃檨

That sucks, that has to be hard for ya.

Anomaly was the game. Got it on a Kindle Fire HD back in the day.

Now, it appeaes to be unavailble in US app stores. Import stores only (Never tried getting an app outside the US store. Might be worth a look....)

It's also on Steam, but that's not really my preferred format anymore.
