its very funny to me that capcom looked at the abysmal sales of the resident evil mobile ports (i hear under 2000 copies sold of 7? total?) and decided what it really needed was DRM. so they dont launch without an internet connection anymore

@noiob resident evil 7, 8, and 4 remake have mobile versions yeah

@pup_hime idk what sales numbers they expected, like, the games really don't work well on a tiny screen

@noiob i imagine "under 2000 copies" didnt cross their minds at all

@pup_hime like if I had a compatible phone I'd probably be happy with trying the demo once and then continuing to play the games on my computer

@noiob i recently discovered alien isolation is also on mobile (but android too) and i similarly dont understand why

@pup_hime I can somewhat understand it on like, an iPad where you can hook up a controller and just play like you'd do on a laptop

or casting to a tv but then I'm not sure why it needs to be on the phone in the first place
