    Default Laptop/PC Client?

    I think this could be a very good idea, play and home and when on the go! Not sure if this has been brought up before but i think its a very good topic.

    The reason I like this game is because its mobile. Everything is simplified (in the right places) for play on a mobile device. If it was playable on a PC, it would be a different experience and come off as a sub-par MMO for that platform. Either that or the PC players would have an advantage (key bindings etc). It's a good sentiment, but it would be a bad thing for this game.

    Maybe. But on the other hand, what if I posit that the greatest potential about this MMO (I use that term lightly) is the ability to log in and play from anywhere, any device? If you think about it that way, a Mac/PC client might make sense, or even a browser version. But I agree that other platforms are the least of the dev's concerns right now, they should be focusing on improving the game / adding content, as they are right now.

    Yeah, a PC client would take forever to make probably and + with this game only maxing out of 1000 users per day if not less there's not point.

    Until this game gets really big they need to focus on making the mobile version better.

    Mobile all the way, it makes the game better...

    Botting = Yes
    Hacks = No

    You could "hack" with iFile, but since all the important [censored] is stored Server Sided, nothing really can be "hacked"

    Good luck running and and moving the camera at the same time.

    And I agree, PL is amazing BECAUSE it's a mobile game. Actually, the first mobile game of it's kind for the iPhone.

    PCs are completely different. IPhones don't have "programs" used for cheating.
    You can do alot more with a PC. Lol editing client side files isn't hacking anyway.
    Trust me my friend a PC's violence is limitless.
    Kids hacked predator drones with a PC.... Roflmao.

    I seriously hope Spacetime Studio do not release a desktop version of Pocket Legends.

    If you take a look at their press documents in the link below, you will find that the organization evolves around mobile devices. It is their belief and their faith which I hope that they will follow strictly.

    God knows why samhayne edited your post but I must correct you, hacking is much easier on the PC when you have tools which can view and modify both your client software, your memory, and your packets of internet.

    The versatility of the PC means people can do more malicious things
