Mobile I got nox player, should i play some online games like clash royale or it isn't worth it?

[CocaFeca]

Yesterday I got the android emulator nox to play plants vs. zombies 2 reflourished and altverz, mostly because I don't own 64 bit phones wich are the only ones compatible with current versions and don't think I should because of the current economic situation and crappy modern os that plague most phones.

Thing is, a friend of mine asked if I play clash royale, to wich I replied "No, because it takes too much space for that kind of game and because I don't like the community" but I've been thinking about it...

Nox mostly I'm gonna ever gonna use it for pvz 2 mods, online games aren't my kind of thing both on pc and mobile, clash royale, clash of clans, angry birds 2 and team fortress 2 are all visually and musically appealing, but those games require a consistent Internet connection and a lot of play time, plus I don't like to constantly update games, I either download old versions of offline games, games that don't receive more support but are fully playable or games that sometimes require an update but only a time a year or every 6 or 8 months (although only pvz heroes and xenoverse 2 come to mind) and I don't think those sorts of games are that good or fulfilling in any way, you can't just pop in a match in tf2 or clash royale like pulling a psp out of your pocket or going to a direct launcher in your pc, you have to wait and spend a lot of time grinding, and even with friends I can't seem to get back on the train of playing clash royale or tf2, plus I don't like steam or the google play store (although I don't mind GOG, that one is good)

What do you think? and answer is appreciated, more if a personal or detailed opinion, thanks for reading!

Run, run as fast as you can from any bloated android emulators.

The only acceptable emulator is Genymotion, because it sticks to a pure Android experience without crap in the background. It is focused on corporations and developers but there is a version free for personal use without any limitations, and it works really really well. The only limitation is that you need the same architecture. If the game you're playing has no x86 apk, then it won't work unless you run Genymotion on an ARM CPU PC.

How much space is genymotion and how well optimized it is?

I first tried bluestacks, like you said it was bloated, then I tried nox wich didn't have much ads at all but the optimization wasn't the best, both in apps and in the main os, plus both were over 10gb, how much is genymotion? 5,6? Take into account that I have a i5 7500 with 8gb of ram, so I don't know how well it would perform
