Facebook Games Shouldn't Be Dying

Purchase shares in great masterpieces from artists like Pablo Picasso, Banksy, Andy Warhol, and more.

Today, games on Facebook are nothing like they once were. So what went wrong? What stopped Facebook's momentum, and kept them from being a dominant force in gaming?

I just saw this video and was so surprised to see you are at 101k subs. I genuinely thought you were in the 7 figure subscriber range! Such a great channel! Can't wait to see you amass more play buttons!

Damn I didn't realized I missed the classic farm ville this much

[aasishwarsaravana]

Really loved these zynga games, they were really good games during its time made by passionate game developers, Although I wasn’t on facebook while playing them! Those games were actually fun and relaxing, compared to new mobile games which are just downright scams, and shove you with microtransactions!

Not sure casual gamers can transition to VR... There is a big difference between popping into your farm for 5 minutes to water your crops between meetings at work, and putting on a massive, cumbersome, $1000 gaming headset. Until VR is like a sci-fi movie where it fits on your glasses or a contact lens, it will never be stomach able to the average person.

Wild Ones was such a fun Facebook game

[jook]

vids are good quality but i wish they were
abt indie games more of the time, keep it up!

[Mr.Vetkoek]

congrats to 100k. That's a big achievement. Also nice stache bro

[dailyquestsxp]

It's a success tho. Games improved, so people moved to what's best, but, not gonna lie, the Facebook games era served us happiness and fun.

Quality of your videos is amazing. I wish you develop bigger viewership soon. All the best :)

Nice, but I really think the bar to entry plus the bulk of headsets needs to come WAY down before "casual vr games" can really be a thing and hit mass market. Your formerly Farmville playing grannies wouldn't wear some bulky headset to do this, but when we can have VR/AR wearables that are just like glasses or goggles, I think we may see that be a thing. Apple Vision Pro is going that way, but still way too expensive and heavy.

zuck shoulda just bought Zynga instead of investing in stupid vr goggles

[jayralph]

Without Game developers advertising Facebook, Facebook would be nothing.

[mcmcrabbit]

restaurant city was peak fb gaming for me

[WKogut]

Miss the time mobile games weren't just shitty Farmville or candy crush clones, and could be actually fun

[TrickyThene]

Oh my god Infinity Blade! The best phone game I have ever played in my entire life.

[Gnomable]

I also didn't know Facebook still had games. I'm kinda surprised Meta is still chugging along despite such a massive string of expensive failures.

[return_h]

Dungeon rampage was my favorite game. Social wars and empires too. Rip that games

[eyad.]
