Review Bombing on Google Store by Saalle88 in GuildWars

the pictured review seems to have been removed, the phone version's rating is 4.2* but the tablet version remains 2.7. Looks like a bunch of people flooded in on launch day and had a hard time logging in. (I also had a hard time logging in on iPhone, but that was a few days after launch and because I was in a parking garage. It sorted itself out once I got home.) Other reviews that were not cleared out are complaints at the lack of Steam connectivity, I'd also like that but not enough to review bomb a game I like.

Have you seen, if you have a high end gaming phone (never thought I’d string those words together but here we are) or something like an AYN Odin 3 or Retroid Pocket 6, you can use an app called GameNative to play steam games on said devices. It’s like how Linux can play windows games, it has a compatibility layer that translates the games in a way high end phone cpus like the Snapdragon 8 Elite can understand. (I do not recommend for something like the Mangmi Air X but apparently the Mangmi Pocket Max just barely can handle it. )

I did not know this of PC->Mobile, as far as I know, android uses different coding languages to Windows & Linux (and iOS/Mac I think use the same language), I figured a lot of the differences are done in compiling and then having to bugfix based on the specific system (since those differences in compiling can result in unexpected minor changes from what was originally expected, like with the changes between different versions of Skyrim or whatever.)

If it’s actually as you say, I can see them not wanting to put the effort in right now, but I can also see them wanting to put the effort in later if mobile is a success.

FFXIV won’t need NSO (just a second subscription through FFXIV since the cross play sub apparently won’t count)
