I’ve just uninstalled and removed Balatro after yet a near, very close 8/8 ante finish. I have been failing and failing, I’ve only ever seen and gotten to 8/8 ante twice, this being the second time. Every other run has been just insulting me to where no strategy has ever worked, I feel like a lot of it is RNG and pre-determined outcomes based on seeded runs.
And I hate that way of playing. It always feels like I’m getting smacked down by a troll bully who I can never overcome. They’d kick me down every failed run I’d have, then they give me a false sense of security the further I get. “Awwww, getting tired of being owned? Here, let me help you by giving you a few seemingly lucky breaks. SMACK Oh! OWNED YOU AGAIN! FUCK YOU! LOLLOLOL! I BANGED YOUR MOTHER, GIT GUD, NOOB!1”
I just don’t understand why these kinds of games are around, even when I have a good idea who it is for.
I havent, but it’s not really the getting my ass beat that turns me off from the games, it’s more the
not really having fun while it happens lmao. Even when I first started playing BF3, I’d still have exciting moments between the repeat deaths on deaths on teamkills on deaths. Soulslike games have, for me, usually just felt like a slog and a grind. Maybe it’s just because I havent gotten good at them, quite likely really, but the barrier to entry just doesn’t seem worth surmounting to me when there are so many other games to play out there without the barrier to entry.
Yeah, I feel that. Totally fair.
