On June 23, 2009, ZeniMax Media, best known for Bethesda Softworks, acquired id Software and announced that all future id Software games would be published by Bethesda Softworks, Doom being one (in addition to Rage and future Quake titles). On May 7, 2008, id Software announced that the development of Doom had begun. John Carmack confirmed in August 2007 that the fourth Doom was in the future plans of id Software. After all, this is a premium release packing controller support, a reworked UI for touchscreen play, and a speed boost for battles that ties in great with the auto-battle system.Work on a new Doom game began in the years after Doom 3. To say this is one of the grindiest games ever made is an understatement, but it's a good grind that isn't monetized aggressively. Despite what you're thinking, auto-play really adds a lot to Disgaea 1 since later games saw the addition of tons of quality of life features the first title never saw. The first game is known for offering the best story in the series, and what most people don't know is that the mobile port is actually the best version available, all thanks to the addition of an auto-play mechanic not to be found in any other version. This is a series from Nippon Ichi Software that offers an anime-like story with matching art. If you're big into turn-based strategy RPGs, your Final Fantasy Tactics, your X-Coms, then you've probably heard of the Disgaea titles. Monetization: free / no ads / IAPs from $0.99 - $99.99 Still, Genshin is a great-looking game that's perfect for stress-testing new hardware, and there's some fun to be had if you play casually, especially since there's cross-save support across all supported platforms. As I said, it's a love it or hate it kind of thing, which will ultimately come down to how willing you are to put up with grindy gameplay that's monetized poorly.

There's also a lack of end-game content, and you'll run into plenty of false walls along the way, purposefully slowing down your progress. Still, the monetization is greedy, and you will be bombarded with all manner of sales and other annoying in-game notifications. The writing is also better than expected, and the game's characters are detailed and interesting.

There are still very few mobile games that can compare a year later. The graphics in this Zelda-like adventure are superb. Genshin Impact is an adventure game that might not appeal to everyone, thanks to its gacha design, but there is no denying that miHoYo Limited raised the bar exponentially when it comes to the polish and content of free-to-play mobile games.
