you can stream your pc games to mobile using steam streaming, parsec or sunshine. it works over the internet with playable latency.

you need a controller and good internet for it to work well, but ive been doing it and its great.

No, porting to something that only has touch controls is bad. Touch controls should be only be implemented alongside traditional controls

Nah you got a point. Would be cool I think (coming from someone who barley plays on his phone)

You can pretty easily pirate most popular Android games. The site with the most games/apps and no sketchy adware stuff is 4pda, a russian language web forum.

i wish phones and handheld games were completely separate again tbh. even these annoyingly large-screened phones they made annoyingly large-screened for Gamers are imo too small to really get into, just let phones be compact dedicated communication devices and if you really want to game on the go get a tablet or steam deck or whatever

but anyway can't you just pirate the mobile StS?

steam game can be played on Windows, MacOS, or Linux without restriction provided it's ported or works with Proton.

Usually you would be playing a windows x86 build via Proton on an x86 (or emulated x86) system, but AFAIK Proton doesn't have a backend for iOS/Android (which are ARM), and steam won't even run on an ARM linux ubuntu. Devs most likely would refuse this because converting a game to Android/iOS is a whole new build, they might not have been using an engine like Unity/Godot that simplifies adding Android/iOS as build targets, they might not be willing to redesign UI elements for a platform that's touchscreen-first, they might not want to hire additional QA/play testers for mobile devices, and if they are willing to do all of that, they might not be willing to give it for free for users who bought the x86 windows build, they might even want to make the game's revenue model ad-driven or pay-to-win.

But you can ignore all that and buy a steam-deck like device, or download the "Steam Link" app and stream a game from Steam to your mobile device.

I think the likelihood of this happening is continually increasing as ARM-based and similar RISC processors become more and more powerful and x86 emulation continues to improve. There's a very real chance we'll see ARM-based steam deck competitors in the next couple of years, and at that point it's basically just an inevitability.

No, not once. Though few times in the other way.

There is Steam Deck, but I can't connect ir to my phone data via hotspot so..maybe in the future.

Razer Kishi and Steam Link app? I used to do this all the time before my Steam Deck.

I play classic doom once in a while on freedom. Although its very limited. I used to play a lot on retroarch. Again that has limits too when it comes to doom.
