And what of the audiences that own no consoles but game on their phones? Non-mobile game sales are already a footnote by comparison. It should be little surprise that there are people who have not heard of factorio but have heard of mindustry simply due to what people are exposed to.

- BlueTemplar 3y agoHuh, wow. Though the issue with this statistic is that it is counting in dollars rather than units, and you know how disproportionately mobile games seem to rely on microtransactions, and isn't that income heavily weighted by whales ?
- willis936 3y agoThere is nothing that immunizes console and PC games from the rise of microtransactions. I would expect the relative effect to be similar. There are just many more phones than consoles.
- BlueTemplar 3y agoMaybe, maybe not, but it's just a fact that currently PC & console games are still much more upfront payment compared to mobile games.
