Why couldn't mobile gaming ever rise above slop?

Simple as

rule of thumb is nothing solely made for normalfags will ever be good
if you wanna blame anyone for garbage, blame normalfags and those appealing to them
normie beloved shit can only be good if it wasn't intended for them and was made by a passionate creator and just happened to end up in normie spheres by chance, otherwise if they are the target audience, it'll be trash because bug people love trash

Because mobile games have to deal with shitty controller that is just a screen.

Because freemium model proved you can just feed people literal trash for "free" and they will cheer and ask for more.
Also mobile platform will likely forever be designited toilet time entertainment so very few will ever bother putting out something interesting.

Hyper aggressive monetization structure. Can't have nice things when someone can pay 4 bucks to fuck you in the ass.

Because bad gameplay =/= lots of fucking money from turd worlders and secondaries.

I must attest to the one good mobile game I've thought has ever had potential as a normal game. That would be Bike Race. The only thing holding it back is the shitty devs because they only interact with the game nowadays to insert some microtransactions for the holidays. If they simply used the in-game levels (of which finishing them could function as an "achievement") as a way of attaining new bike types (and removed microtransactions and ads as even possible ways to attain them) then it would be very decent.

I mention this one game in particular because the skill ceiling on the game is very high and has an interesting physics engine behind it. Theres many vids online of people getting creative with user levels and it's very impressive, especially when tracking times down to 0.0001 second differences which I've personally poured a few dozen hours into.

The platform is slop. Anyone interested in quality wouldnt use a mobile phone to play a game.
