It works pretty well for me, continuing my progress between iPad and iPhone.

[Polygon] Final Fantasy creator’s new game has a cool diorama look and rethinks random encounters
- Thread starter --R
- Start date
I don't believe there are exceptions. It's like a gamepass style service but without the individual purchases.
User Warned: drive-by posting
Welp, hope it gets released elsewhere soon enough.
Grindstone save syncing for me between my phone and AppleTV has been great so far.
There are. Some games, such as Shinsekai, Beyond Blue, Mutazione, and Manifold Garden (among many) are on Apple Arcade and consoles and Steam.
Does AppleTV have controller support? Might actually pick one up soon because AndroidTV is awful lol.
It does. DS4 and XB controllers both work. It depends on the game in question having controller support though. You should look at each game's AppStore listing to verify.
Time for me to dust off the Apple Arcade sub then. This sounds fantastic.
and yes, Apple TV had controller support.

Considering how much bigger mobile is than console and PC it's not that they don't want your money...they don't need it.
I was responding to the question about individual purchases. Not whether games can come to other platforms unless I accidentily quoted the wrong post to respond to.
At least I have an Ipad Pro so I can actually enjoy this. Hope it comes to other stuff relatively soon.
I really like the idea of what they are doing with the backgrounds. Sounds like a ton of effort but also something I would immensely appreciate.
The bit about random encounters sounds a bit too odd for someone that likes random encounters but if it forces you to fight them all in the end it may be decent. I'd have to try it. The rush to get out there that your game doesn't have random encounters gets annoying.
In any case this seems a lot more appealing to me than the last thing they worked on.

I was willing to give this a shot despite being phone only, but it's actually Apple phones only so I guess count me out too
It's exclusive to Apple though, top response already said they don't have it. Why the hell do people defend a company?
It's mega annoying too.
They work great. When was the last you used iCloud. It was buggy at first, but it' been pretty stable in the last 2 years.
There is a tone in every mobile thread that has nothing to do with whether the person has an apple device or not. It's I'm not playing it on mobile because of X,Y, Z reasons. Some of those reasons are because they don't own a mobile device. Plenty of those reasons have nothing to do with that. So it lends to endless port begging and endless trashing of mobile devices in general. If the same behavior happened in any other platform it would not be allowed. Cool, a person doesn't have an apple device. I don't have a playstation or a switch. I don't go into playstation or switch threads and port beg. Or say apparently they don't want my money style posts. But you can bet that happens in every single high profile mobile title thread.
They're not pre rendered, they're real backgrounds scanned or whatever they did to put them in game. But they're not computer generated.
Apple Arcade means that it will be on AppleTV, have full controller support (including PS/Xbox controllers) and Cloud-saves across all devices.
I don't really see a problem here, unless you want it on anything but those platforms, but then isn't this just portbegging?🤷♂️
Right on. May bite the bullet and cop an Apple TV 4K this summer. Gooch's RPGs are always fantastic experiences.
Hope it actually is coming soon and isn't a Wonderbox situation. It feels like that game has been coming soon for 4 months now.
The highest numbers I've seen for an estimate of Apple Arcade subscriber numbers is between 10 and 15 million, and I've seen several estimates well below that.
You seem to be wildly overestimating the potential playerbase.
People bitch about Epic exclusives and how they have to "wait" for the Steam release all the time and those posters never get moderated. It's only console warring or port begging apparently when it's a Sony/Microsoft/Nintendo console.
Anyway, the games looks great! I don't have an Apple device so sadly I can't play, but I'll definitely be on board for whatever system it launches later on.
How is it portbegging? I saw the game, it looked amazing, realised it was for Apple devices and seeing as I don't have any I can't play it. It's as simple as that.
I will definitely try this, mobile or not. But I'd rather buy it outright than sub to Apple Arcade, so I'll wait for the option to buy if it's not there at launch.
