Big fan of #Utaite (particularly doing covers of #Vocaloid music,) games, and technology. Unfortunately I’ve been falling out of anime these days (harder and harder to get into things for me) and don’t watch much anymore. I’m also a very slight bit of an audiophile (but limited budgets make it hard to be much of one.)

Please do not autofollow just because you saw a post of mine show up somewhere or something. Try at least speaking to me…

BTW I rarely ever click random links. Say what you want to say. Please.

    @KatherinaReichelt No no, it’s not that. I’ve seen some work to port a sort of WINE or something over to Android and get some Windows titles working for example. But that doesn’t fix the fundamental problems.

    Android, iOS, and even Windows Mobile now are all just… wrong for gaming. The systems they use are simply not built for it and their nature makes them not very adaptable. (Like with Linux I can swap out systemd for OpenRC for example, but there is no equivalent of this sort of thing for Android.)

    There’s more input latency, more output latency, the coding languages and APIs are inefficient and ridiculously limited and use way too much battery power even for simple 2D pixel art games, etc etc.

    Indeed the Steamdeck is much closer to the right balance — because of the OS.

    @PerfectDark It seems interesting, but I’ll stick to my core belief that modern phone/tablet operating systems are the literal worst possible choices for gaming. But, really, even for normal usage IMO they’re starting to really show their age. They made lots of sense back in 2010 for 1GHz processors that performed about 1/10th as well relative to modern processors of the same speed and 256MiB of RAM to pull ahead of the interfaces that preceded them, but they have not scaled well at all and have become so messy and bloated…

    (Yeah, I think mobile devices should use a real OS now.)
