  1. +Dingbala Ahkmed Don't be close minded, they're not wrong. You could easily develop a simple game that could make you wealthy in a short amount of time (Braid). Or, you could work on an indi game (with at least 2 people) for a few years and become a millionaire...sell it on steam and consoles, you're set for life. Repetitive games are the leading factor of the money-making businesses, and they have been for the last few years. For example, you've got repetitive Facebook/mobile mega games, like: Candy Crush, Clash of Clans, Angry Birds, and Subway Surfers. Then you have repetitive console/pc games: Overwatch, Battlefield, Call of Duty, Destiny, and Rainbow Six Siege. The system of repetitive games is easy: the weapons skins, DLC, and outfit skins are what the masses are wasting their money on...virtual aesthetics.

  2. The Outsider You do know they advertise by using the Internet and TV? C'mon, use your brain, it's fucking social media, you really don't need E3 to capitalize these mobile games, because they're "free" and easily accessible. Seriously, they're even making movies off mobile games...Angry Birds was the first one. As I said to the OP, don't be "close minded".

  3. The Outsider Mobile games are all about gameplay, dude. Also, the mainstream fps games don't have a story, and the game companies make more money than your average story game.
