I think its obvious that mobile is a ghetto. The touch based controls don't really lend themselves to anything complex gaming-wise and high-information gamers aren't ignoring their PCs and consoles for them. It just leaves low-information casuals who jump into whatever skinner box time-waster is popular today.
In the meantime, the PC master race is having a renaissance of sorts and the new batch of consoles look pretty good.
I have made an effort in the recent weeks to try to explore the popular titles, and even some obscure ones and I have to agree. I have always said that gaming on the go is not really anything I care about, as my PC is where I want to game. But with some life shifts I have found myself on the go a little bit more with some spare time and honestly, the Play marketplace offers a bunch of half assed efforts imo.
There are games that are free, but pay to win. There are games that cost, but no way to know if they are worth a damn other than buying and going after your refund quickly. We wont even go into totally free stuff.
So while you obviously arent on par with popular opinion, I agree with you. I for one am hoping that the shift to PC architecture in the new consoles will speed up our renaissance ultimately. Ive been having the most fun gaming single player lately than I have in a long time.
