It might make sense if Minecraft was only on Mac while Roblox was on Mac and Windows. You can only play factorio from a desktop while all manner of machine can play mindustry. There are entire audiences that do not game on PC.
And what of the audiences that own no consoles but game on their phones? Non-mobile game sales are already a footnote by comparison. It should be little surprise that there are people who have not heard of factorio but have heard of mindustry simply due to what people are exposed to.
Huh, wow. Though the issue with this statistic is that it is counting in dollars rather than units, and you know how disproportionately mobile games seem to rely on microtransactions, and isn't that income heavily weighted by whales ?
There is nothing that immunizes console and PC games from the rise of microtransactions. I would expect the relative effect to be similar. There are just many more phones than consoles.
