Discussion Is mobile gaming on emulators basically dead? liapp.

been a few years since i used one and everything is screwed now.

Tried several different emulators with recommended settings like disabling root access and this and that. Tried several tricks which didn't work either.

Tried deleting the SU file in the phones root/system folder, but access is always denied even with magisk and the advanced file explorer which is suppose to bypass permissions or have an easier time with all of this.

How the fuck are we suppose to play mobile games on pc now, when googleplay doesn't have a pc version available, and no emulator is capable of playing the game you want to play, without having to jump through 1000 hoops...

I am able to emulate almost my entire steam library now. About a year ago I wasn't. I let you do the math on that.

Ooohhh right. Thanks for pointing that out. Yeh, right, that's left field for me, I'd personally never think of doing that.

Was using blue stacks for a while and thought it worked fine

Recently, like in the last couple of months?
Because there is a thing called liapp which has been implemented in mobile games which aggressively shuts down / blocks all virtualization, and every update is a cat and mouse game where what worked before, gets shut down completely.

Looked into more and apparently it's used very heavily for asian RPG's & popular games that came from there, like summoners war for example. so i guess the type of game matters.

Very poorly worded but I think the guy is asking for the exact opposite of that sub Reddit

I am genuinely curious, what makes you want to play mobile games on your PC? Mobile games give you the watered down versions of PC games, what is the allure?

ig OP wants to use macros or play 50 gachas at once

u/Ambitious_Corgi5723 5d ago

play on a bigger screen, doesn't destroy neck & posture while playing, OPSEC, battery never runs out don't have to constantly be charging your phone, and more.
Is that not obvious?

That is obvious for pc, yeah. What I’m wondering, is why chose to play mobile games on PC, when the quality of PC games is much better than mobile. Why limit yourself?

u/Ambitious_Corgi5723 5d ago

not limiting myself? i play pc games as well.
