The explanation for Apex Legends Mobile not succeeding is actually spot on, the three things he mentioned are almost verbatim what players are saying, both publicly and in custom research.
Your previous rundown suggesting streamlined experience and more/better monetization is super smart. Players also told us (along with other games like Wild Rift) that the mobile versions of big/hardcore franchises need to provide a different or complementary experience, not the same/downgraded experience of the HD version. The core players just went back to PC/console, not enough focus on making a more accessible mobile version of the game.
Brian I’d love to talk to you at some point about your thoughts on that. We originally thought for our shooter that we should go with a cross-play experience but increasingly we’re shifting towards more of an optimized/slightly different PC/console experience to your point above. Thanks for your thoughts.
Sure thing, it's a hot and important topic that we explored recently. Feel free to reach me at brogers@betahatmr.com or brogers1544@gmail.com (personal). Always enjoy talking about industry trends and games!

I really do hope that Apex Mobile comes back and does well. Great franchise.
