  By real games i mean pc games. There are plenty of various open source lauchers from github which can run real pc games on android. But the problem remains: either bad performance, as the game is not optimised for mobile hardware, or terrible touchscreen controls, as the pc games might require a lot of keys to play.

  For example, i can play minecraft java edition on android using zalith launcher, but some medium modpacks may not work due to lack of memory or unsupported mods, and playing it using touchscreen is very difficult. Unlike some other games, minecraft java edition isnt really designed about controllers, and even with dedicated mods which add support for them, arent really useful.

  Mobile sucks. Smartphones are just too limited for real gaming. First problem is the hardware; you cant just put a desktop or laptop processors into a mobile device. Second is a small screen, which is very difficult to use for touchscreen controls and simply too small to actually see what is being displayed.

  Age verification, which is a public way to say “Identity verification”, is absolutely stupid, and does absolutely nothing but making everything worse. And even if identity verification is somewhat understandable for web services, it should not apply to the locally used software, especially foss one, which is by definition available to everyone.
