Mobile games, are you in or out?

I consider myself as one of those who've been playing mobile or online games. Mobile games are popular these days as our technology improves. Not only kids and teens, but also adult plays mobile games. Some says it is fun playing mobile games, some also left a remark saying "it was stressful", also some are just so-so, those people who play just to ease their boredom.

Different types of mobile games

There are different types of mobile games actually. You can play mobile games with or without using the internet, or we can say, you can still play it even though you are offline. Some applications requires you to download their app first before you can use it offline, but there are also games that doesn't require you to do so. Where can you find these games? They're literally everywhere, you can just simply search in Google, "mobile games" and hundreds of them will appear. Also, if you're looking for a game that you will enjoy, you can just simply add what type of game you want to play when you search it in Google. You can download these games through Google or through an App Store. However, if it isn't available in App Stores, you can just simply look for its apks and you can download them.

Some of the most popular online games that I play are Mobile Legends, Call of Duty, PUBG Mobile, Clash of Clans, Mobile Legends Adventure, Arena of Valor, Wild Rift and Genshin Impact. So far, these are also what's popular among younger generations, even some adults play these games. It has good graphics but requires you to download their application first before you can play them. Also, some of these games can be played in personal computers. Especially Genshin Impact, its graphic becomes the best when you play it in PC. Also some of the good offline games I play so far are, zombie tsunami, like a dino, Minecraft, Hamster village, Hamster house and candy crush. Few of them are underrated but they are fun to play with. Thing is, I only play when I get bored in playing online games. It's like something to ease boredom and after a while I may do something or play online games again. Offline games aren't so popular as those games where you can only play if you will use internet. If you are wondering why, there are several reasons. First, of course, if you play offline games there are few to non players you can interact with, unlike online games people can communicate with other players. They can play with their friends, and if course that will make the game more fun and enjoyable. Next is, entertainment, these past few years, people who plays offline games are decreasing continuously. Why? Because most offline games aren't that challenging and entertaining. You can only do limited things unlike when you're playing online. You can play and battle with different players, you can also make friends if you're lucky. Next is technology. As it improves, more and more games will be only available when you use internet. "Future is online" as what they say. Plus, the younger generation prefers to play games that they will surely enjoy and find thrilling. They sought to play games that will test their skills and not just something to ease their boredom or to pass time. Next is graphics, online games graphics are much better than those games that you play offline. Of course, what's pleasing to ones eyes will surely catch their attention, and these days, most of these 'eye-pleasing' games should be played online.

Advantage and disadvantages of online and offline games.

Of course both online and offline games have their own advantage and disadvantages. Most of its advantage are mentioned above, but what's more concerning is mobile game addiction and online games' toxicity. Mobile game addiction is where you almost do nothing but constantly playing games. There are times when it becomes too much where you don't even eat just so you could grind your game all day. Remember, there is nothing wrong with playing these games, as long as you know your limitations. Do not forget that you also has a life to live and it isn't all about playing. And also remember to avoid focusing on playing games and also do things that makes you happy. Next is , online games toxicity, this is almost inevitable. But why do people become toxic when playing online games? It is because they are eager to win, when a certain person doesn't know what to do with the game, some players threaten and begins to throw hate speech to some players who has literally no idea on what's going on and what should they do. Of course their actions aren't justifiable, games are made to play, and people can do whatever they like because they choose to install that game. To avoid toxicity in online games, I recommend you to cut interaction with a toxic player when you find one. Keep in mind that in the end, it is just a game, and it is not an enough reason to threaten someone.

CLOSING THOUGHTS
