It does not change gaming, it changes Candy Crush consumption. All the fun things are on PC, not because of hardware, but because of openness of the ecosystem.

It does not change gaming, it changes Candy Crush consumption.
All the fun things are on PC, not because of hardware, but because of openness of the ecosystem. You just cannot innovate in the self censorship environment of a walled garden.
- kin 11y agoI wasn't referring to specifically innovation. While games like Candy Crush are generally frowned upon by the non-casual gamers, iOS as a marketplace is rather well adopted by all sorts of developers from indie to AAA. Hell, even Nintendo has agreed to license their IP to the iOS market. To me, Apple TV is now a console and while it's not as open as the PC ecosystem, it is no doubt a place developers want to be.
- rsynnott 11y agoSurely quite a lot of the fun things are on consoles? And the consoles are _far_ less accessible to devs, especially indie devs, than this will be (assuming it uses the normal app store model).
- oldmanjay 11y agoIt's fine that you've decided that the only version of fun you like is on the PC, but in the context of the wider world, you are factually incorrect.
