beg for x mult on funne build
get x mult immediately after buying even funnier joker
š
i should probably sell chad but think about the lucky procs
why would you sell him
Yeah, discarded 1 king to get a lower rank which was a 7 and it worked
wrong reply
Thanks guys
Just sell chad
epic ping
dude i said ||card sharp and acrobat|| before i got it itās literally all the same š
but i like gambling š
didn't you get a hint after the first ?
son im crine
i just got so confused from seeing enter the gungeon
then i remembered my crimes
two sentence horror
money
i figured
root of all evil root of all good
Why

Just gamble really hard and Riff Raff will generate a holographic egg
yes
it is THAT good
spam pairs
and you get crazy value
itās the second best econ joker
only behind rebate
the best joker in the game
idk how to play obelisk icl
me neither i donāt like it i think its one of the worst personally
lmao
i agree with the riffraff especially with the sacred dagger
i had a run yesterday
i had a foil dagger
and riff raff
but then i lost
because i got greedy
the root of all evilā¦
Where's caverndish
isnāt it the other way around
tuff
modsā¦
I truly thought 3 glass would get me there :/
we need a cavendish to save the runā¦
I would be overscoring, I already have enough econ, and it would block a riffraff slot
nah we got trib @covert lagoon
oh then we good

I am here!
Hey trib
Yo
Yo
...
who are u
itās gros michel donāt you know
Your card pfp is off.
shut up
both of you were in the one run together a while back
nahhh i was just copied by a rotten invis
Interesting day in Balala server
thats why is off

So true
I glad you did this, I was thinking of hanging up the mantle
hanged man?
clone wars or something idk i never played star wars battlefront
tribs tribs thereās enough chicots to go around chill š
we lowk need a sock and busking
good one āļø
mantleā¦
SHADOW MANTLE!!!!!
Good bye my people soon I will be no more
perishable trib

wait but if youāre an invis of them that means youāre perishable too
impossible
yeah thatās also not possible but eh oh well
it was a rotten invis, it didnt work like that
we good

obelisk replacing bro next ante anyways it donāt matter
Do we need boss music for Bosses in Balatro?
We do technically have them but ones that fit their theme
ooh thatās a cool idea
We NEED that orchesta from the GOTYs in the ante 8 boss
It doesn't have to sound intense
Me: I'm gonna take the rare tags on ante 1 for the lols
Me: Oh I beat the boss
Me: Lol blueprint brainstorm would be crazy
Me:
Could be something jovial
(I got photochad that run too š)
the thing is thatās a lot of work if theyāre unique and itād be hard to do that for the 20 something boss blinds and make em all sound good
it is!
Thy greeting shall be shared unto thy saluted commune
And it's not like it's impossible, Terraria mods made it work
Anyone know whether I should brainstorm dusk or chad?
holy shit i finally did erratic on orange stake. 1 more stake and ive finished 5 decks
https://youtu.be/N_4Hyet9-3w?si=HyajiENlVw4p8vcO
this as ante 8 music, trust
Og video: https://youtu.be/YV2XXwAxMFQ?si=-8QR76Pvww9wDjiO
#balatro
#gameawards2024
And 6 days from now, every single Boss in Terraria now has their own unique boss music
Boss 2 to this day absolutely SLAPS though
That's a little too intense for Balatro but I still love that orchestra
Oh my god...
I haven't been able to play flush five yet
wich means that idol is useless for now lol
with enough deck fixing that idol will do wonders
Yes for now
yess dig for a death or sum
or a hangman but thatās less ideal
dont get the directors cut
WE have all lost a glorious run to and early plant
it would be comically funny if you died to the plant
now to see what we can do
i lost an e24 run to it on ante 9 š
haha
What do I trade out here, I can get 1 flush 5 lucky queens per round
i love dying to the plant
photo
Real shit?
yeah
Flush is still by far my most used planet despite it being almost 2 years since the saturn buff
bloodstone gon carry ur scoring
blue print blood too i think
Bet
this seed is cracked
Ty
photochad š
everyone with perkeoās done it
fr
Alright now what LMFAO
chad
looks inside
Betttt
i cant wait for it to get a nerf, hopefully it'll feel more rewarding to use once it does
are you serious
Rebate will be nerfed to oblivion
how would it be nerfed
i think idol needs to get buffed
chad giving 1 retrigger
yes, rn feels cheap and its over used. i dont particularly enjoy using it because of how often and easy it is to get and use
one of the cards made rarer, chad only retriggering once etc
I now am starting to understand why I see Hanging Chad + Photograph glazed so much online. I haven't known such power in Balatro before, and I can't put it into words.
how do i
chad once is historically inaccurate, itās a reference to how they had to recount election votes twice due to hanging chads on the ballots
wait till bro hears about baron mime
also if you donāt like it donāt use it?
i dont like using it and both cards are still in my top 10 jokers
Card removals, hanged man, collection card
sometimes im more worried about beating a stake
wait
thats a weird first joker
but i like it
I just checked the wiki page to see what mime does. I am now trembling in fear of such a combination.
itās the main setup for naneinf
you get the mime from the card rip thing
and then the cross thing from the other thing
now add a red seal and steel
then you multiply by 2
egg supremecy, 2nd best card in the game (rebait is so broken i cant even joke about it not being no.1)
usually combined with steel red seal kings and a looooot of criptid
What is naneif?
rebate will get nerfed tho
yo i just got a polychrome brainstorm
e308
the max amount of score you can get before it overloads (e308)
e stands for exponent if you didnāt know
it just brakes the game because its not coded to read beyond e308
brakes
Overload like passing the 32 bit integer limit and breaking how the computer tracks values?
NVM that explains it, yes it is.
me when the driving instructor asks me what stops the car
couldnt agree more
so itās a number with 308 zeroes roughly (correct me if iām wrong)
aandd i sold the run
nah u right
rip poly brainstorm
in other words big number
may the polyamorous green needle rest in peace
i get ir
what is the best polu joker? and why madness?
I think I may have this in the bag.
polychrome < negative
i agree
non high contrast balala is weird to me
which is why you dont want polychrome on good jokers
like brainstorm blueprint baron chad etc
Now you just need triboulet for even more fun
eeeexactly
It isn't non high contrast. I went into the files and replaced the texture of the Greedy Joker to match the new color that I made the Diamond suit.
There he is!
we found him!
fair nough
idol hanging chad
i wasnt lost
thereās another trib in the server that this one got invised from but i donāt wanna annoy them š
I must ask though, why use the high contrast? Is it just easier to read quickly? I didn't really understand it when looking at it.
nooooo š¢
k it was me, lowk got tired of that account
def easier to see suits
its easier to see
Is this the correct order or do I double dupe blood?
Blue clubs mog too
fr now
we should have an option to make suits whatever color
I had no idea
would be weird
oh thunk is back again
you been active latelyyy, 1.1 coming?
whenever i'm job hunting thunk appears in bchat
lol
he canāt tell silly!
1.1 will be out some time between tomorrow and 6 years from now
just be patient
8 years of 1.0.1. damn
Sorry, 60 years
at least we got a lil bit of info heh
frrrrrr
i'll be 87 in 2090. damn
someone update the wiki
Local thunk Iāve gotten everyone at my job on ur game. Productivity has never been lower
I could never be happier
billions must play
ill be 83 and playing balatro by 2090
Iāll almost certainly be dead so anything past 60 years from now the mutant cockroaches that inherit the earth will have to finish 1.1 for me
What with all them legs it should be short work
Fallout referenceā
Do u have a favorite mod or mod pack?
I donāt mod
Real asf
u mog tho?
1 in 2 chance that localthunk knows this word.
Ope
But maybe he has oops
Reading is hard
it's 1 short paragraph
we have oops
Buh I just said it
so we do
my friends are making theories for new jokersand itās pissing me off
lol
lmao
I just got here sorry XD
talm bout some āred lollipop jokerā
cuz of the poll
idol rework?
agreed purple best imo
Orange better not finish top 3
What are the colors about?
ONE MORE TIME FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK
im as lost as you
I was having a debate about the objective ordering of the main lollipop flavours and wanted some data
So I decided to abuse my powers
abuse? you're literally the owner you have full control
oh hi localthunk
ah I see. Idk... I like root beer lollipops. So brown.
#šć»polls message
Yeah but itās not related to Balatro lol
do polls like that more often please ts fun as heck to see people at each others throats
i guess that is fair.
orange is so underrated
it better win
i like lollipops.
How dare you
Red is the BEST
if i said i had triple space joker along with one trousers and constellation would you be at my throat
change my mind
i will be screen shotting this and shoving it in their faces
is lollipop joker confirmed?
We need another poll for the other colors that are stakes in game.
Which are the best lollipops? Black? White? Gold?
i would not because thatās not half bad
i believe it was just deconfirmed
I would fw a black liquorice lollipop
me too
cool honestly i was hoping for a constellation to get ankh'd but i decided to roll with space joker anyways
white could be coconut... I'd try it.
liquorice is so good
anise is a goated flavor i donāt get the hate
liquorice is such a weird word to hear as a spanish
remove the ice...and i'll take it
i don't get how most people don't like it
same
yes i am the drunkard joker
I forget how it's said in Spanish... š¤
i did too
XD
lee-core-ee-say
is yellow lollipop pee flavor
regaliz?
yh right
I looked it up
also might i say green is an underrated artificial flavor of anything imo
Don't think I've heard that honestly
is pee lollipop yellow flavor
green apple š£ļø
What shade of green though? Like green joker green?
pee lollipop is porcelain flavoured
green joker green might be a little too green
ahhh I stand corrected
agreed lol
he must be greener
never too green for green joker
you read my mind
fair
how can he be too green? he's literally the green joker
wait here me out here
oh mb i misread
yknow those spongebob ice creams
I like to think that thunk mentioned lollipops in game-discussion to disrupt it in a fun way
im pretty sure he did
turn gary mccready into one of those
gary mccready is decent ball knowledge
i love orange orange is goated
i mentioned the poll and made everything off topic my bad guys
facts
it's ok this is silly
this is a silly and danger
i voted green and orange
also true
i imagine localthunk sitting back just reading wtv ts is
I always liked blue lollipops the most
Ye
blue raspberry goated
Iām eating chip
what kind chip
but seriously a spongebob popsicle esque jimbo youād get from an ice cream truck
blue
The tortilla varietal
CHIPS AND MULT!!
get this man a malt soda
Okay can use a little assistance here:
BP, Brainstorm, Dusk, Sock, Idol, Bloodstone
Is the proper order for this Copy Idol twice or Copy Idol once and Sock once?
next poll should be juice flavour, hear me out
THIS DISCUSSION IS BALATRO RELATED NO WAY!
Bag of Chips joker that uhhh idk gives chips
Is there a good place to play big 2 online? š¤
mult flavoured chips
hear me out we got chip food we need mult drink
sigil is such a nice spectral card to just rip. guess we doin hearts now
it gives chips but 1 in 209494938 chance you actually choke and die irl
i imagine that really crispy and spicy
are takis multr chips?
i imagine cool ranch doritos mixed with takis
we need a mult chip dip
My first gold stake
Photo chad is eternal
what did you sell for verdant leaf
Sock
yeaj
Best chips
hopefully you find another 1
My first gold stake win is also photochad š„
Nah
Well I just wanna win the gold stake and I did
omg hi localthunk
but are cheetos chips?
never seen u in the chat before lol
The run died later
I think cheetos are chips in spirit
āiām here too guys!ā type snack
kind of like hot dogs being sandwiches in spirit
judomaster...
or mustard being a soup
you're a soup
Iām surprised there isnāt a joker thatās potato chips
While you made the food series
did you do mult noise thinking of the flavour of hot cheetos? i would say mult tastes like those
like how pringles are officially advertised as Crisps not chips
Stop talking you arenāt helping me
this game is a toxic relationship sometimes
my bad š how can i help
interesting amount of money you've got there
the british bias is crazy
Cheetos aren't even chips shaped
exactly!
I wish I didnāt
every shape can be chips shape
Theyāve transcended the need to be shaped like a chip
exactly
its because the fda determined they were too different from potato chips for it to be allowed to call tjem chips
So they demoted them to British?
ig so
yeah they semt them to britain to think it over
do they have seasoning on them in britain
probably not
okay, I want to do this once in my life. Mr. Thunk, what's the play?
so no seasoning at all?
or are they boring like the rest of british food
they only have salt and vinegar in britain
Oi Iāve got a packet of crisps in the boot of my lorry
strait fried potato
seasoning and britain in the same sentence is crazy
out of the context of war that is
not even fried, BOILED
at that point itās just mashed potatoes in a bag
i would fw that
same
ngl
this is like the least eventful screenshot you could've chosen š
sadly monsieur thunk they pronounce it as go' and packe' and boo'
lowkey yeah
I know, it's just where I'm at at the moment lol
just straight up asking the developer lol
it's always the wheel trust
i believe you wheel here
take the packs too
I will do exactly what thunk says no matter what
and then reroll for something
Oh I know, and boā oā uhā woā uhā
itās giving asking toby fox to beat the muffet fight for you
if he tells me to sell all jokers and go next blind, I will.
it's chewsday innit bruv
thunk will you ever do a second c++ profile
I lived in the Uk for a wee bit
just hit the wheel and get polychrome obviously
wee mentioned
They say the darndest things
WEE JOKER REFERENCE
WEE MENTIONED=
wee???
MY GOAT
wee joker!@!!!

brits always say what they wanna
what were you even doing in britain
i once saw a youtube video of a british guy walking an ostritch
there aināt nothing there!
is kinda funny why the funny named joker is the tinniest, is that on purpose?
Partner was doing research there
wee as in small
seems like more of an australian thing to do
they were definitely british
it probably was australian, the accent is pretty much the same
Wow
ive moved to korea to study for a year, really great here but i miss the uk.
oh
"Listen nobed if I wanna have a swim in my own bin on the hottest day that weāve ever had in England then I'm entitled to do so. Who are you to stop me? Ah you've got nothing to say now have you" š£š„
Wee bit lad
making me realise unless i find a SO or a good job abroad, dont think i'll live anywhere outside of UK or Portugal
itās like saying mexico spanish and spain spanish are the same
is there any british joker?
flavourless
showman
yorick
makes sense
it would be deep lore if Jimbo turned out to be British
go to any corner on the country and you can find a place that makes food from any country you could imagine, people shit on the food but we just eat everyone elses shit so i never understood that
nahhh he german
Smh thinks hamlet is set in England
Alright, no input from thunk, I shall hit the wheel
where is jimbo from????
Result was 
if i remember right itās either canada or indiana
the few "british" foods are just normal things you often eat outside of uk as well like all day breakfast (english breakfast), sunday roats (everyone literally has a variation of this on xmas and american thanksgiving), apple pie, fish and chips etc
that lowk fits him
logansport indiana
Theyāre talking about actual British food like jellied eels and Cullen skink
So is wee jimbo but small or is he his own character altogether
people always point to something like jellied eels and go "aha your food is shit" but literally every country on earth has shit like that
case in point
Or baked beans for breakfast
does wee joker play fortnite and know 67
ājellied eelsā
theres more than 4 dishes in england???????????
is wee joker from a different country than Jimbo
guys nat negative rebate is "very bad"
Is red seal better than poly here
Loompaland
Oh or mushy peas
lmao
i hc all the jokers are jimbo cosplaying
mushy peas seems nasty and ilove vegetables
What the heck is that one about, I like the peas better unmushed AND itās more work to mush them
I like that
the french eat frog legs, half of south east asia eats a bug or another, im aware of an american delicasy which is literally fried bull testicals
what about raw celery (EW)
raw celery IS PERFECT
idc
decent snack
not perfect tho
got carried away
i mean mushy peas are served with fish and chips iirc
iām a texture dude and i cannot eat watery crunchy strings im sorry
like š
idk if unmushed peas would work as well
thats fair
yall ever eat shredded cheese at 2 am
"oysters"
where are the oysters
Those look delicious
bst deck
they trynna cover it up
any strats?
make money
bull testes btw
and be smart
Always read the boss blind
wait
what does proc stand for
i know the meaning of it but i dont get what word it would be
ok but what if you try it and it becomes your new fav food
also jellied eels are dying out, you're more likely to find the most niche food from a country on the otherside of the world than you are somewhere that sells jellied eel, its a section of london that still sells it and every year more of them close
is it balatro bullās?
a man of his people
you can say the same thing about baked beans or spotted dick
yo localthunk your the creator what is the strat its my first time ever playing gold stakw
proc is a word with a long etymology but to make a long story short to proc something is to trigger the effects of that thing
so you're saying Bull in Balatro is castrated?
oh i thought it was an abbreviation for something lol
Oh Iāve had my fair share of English breakfasts, theyāre bizarre
thatās why itās so well behaved
he give two chips for every dollar in reference to how they sold his balls to make the dish
procedure
Also they normally come with an entire half of a grilled tomato
people think it does but really it's just a nonsense word that originated from mmos
bro what am i hearingš
theory talk
we are in game-discussion after all
new Balatro theory just dropped
we need to theorycraft
localthunk i beat orange stake for the first time:)
Sounds nice
we neeed a theory channel
its bacon, sausage, hashbrowns, fried mushrooms and fried tomatoes. the weirdest thing about it for a foreigner would be the baked beans, unsure how its "bizzare"
i think it came from procedure
WHO SPAMMING TREES?
and the bootstraps give 1 mult for every $5 because heās the farmer who did it
also black pudding but i hate black pudding and always get it taken off when i order/make it
that just be people throwing stuff to the wall to see if itāll stick
@weak shale why are we spamming trees
Bootstraps should be per 5 dollar gained not in bank
someone who really cares about global warming
thunk i know you said you didn't play roguelike deckbuilders on purpose during balatro's development but afterwards have you tried any
heās just feeling festive!
bootstraps and bull combined when you have like 3k is op
Iāve tried a few
more like a funny channel
bro thinks it's christmas over halfway through january
I liked StS, Dungeons and Degenerate gamblers
out of curiosity which have you played? i saw ur in the slay the spire discord, was that your favourite one? (outside of balatro ofc)
I mostly just kept playing Balatro tho
its @weak shale
Hi localthunk
do you plan to play sts2 when it comes out?
thunk whats ur opinion on project zomboid?
stop spamming trees š
before balatro my fav was inscryption but now im unsure which i like more. ive defs spent more time in balatro tho
I timed them out lol
ty
fr
I guess you could say make like a tree and leaf
Deforestation
the environment is dead
can i save this?? all hands are level 1 :(
but the earth will go in flames and it wonāt be festive
@weak shale donāt do that when you come back
hi local thunk
I hate Bloodstone
didnt see u in a while
or is it not on the pecking order
time for space joker
got worried
sorry dude thatās game i think
I played Balatro for maybe 150 hours after launch and thatās more than pretty much any game except for Rocket League
send a flush
weird idea that you can make a game so fun and versatile that itās the main thing you play
Playing the challenges after doing C++ feels like a breath of fresh air
localthunk what was your game of the year last year? did you have a favourite?
thunk you should add celeste cards to the game
im 1 off diamonds :(
So thatās my thing, I was playing every evening before bed for about a year
peak rank? if you dont mind me asking lol
just curious
C3
I get to play fun gimmick decks instead of slamming my head against rng trying to get gold stickers
do i high card king lucky card
damn
or pair
oh yeah iām colorblind lol i see now
I hate Rocket League
? clair obscur?
very representative of the Balatro player base
rocket league
lmao I also thought they had a heart flush for a second there
true
Iām pumped for 1.1 because I want to 100% the game again on a different save file
you're cooked regardless here
thats actually crazy lol much better than me at least
Or possibly on a different platform like Switch 2
I can't wait to play straights again
me too
are you allowed to disclose how many more jokers will be in 1.1
At least 2
i assume not but i figure id ask
will steam achievement for C++ be harder to get after 1.1 or will it only activate for original jokers
epic
i think at least 15
Between 2-50
MORE YHAN I THOUHGT
Jokers will be in Balatro 1.1 š„
do any new jokers have esoteric unlock requirements
I will not change the description of the achievement- so itāll be harder
new tarot card madeline converts 5 cards in your hand to a random suit
okay thanks, i best get to it whilst i can lol
I donāt know yet
fair enough
Thunk have you thought of adding any QOL features of mods that you might have heard about? (i know you avoid that)
the entirety of cryptid to the base game
Handy, you can select cards with a swipe
balatro 1.1 will be in balatro 1.1 š„
you said blue stake is getting revamped (sorry if this is turning into 1.1 interrogation) would you say it is easier or harder than current blue stake?
instead of clicking them 1 by 1
I genuinely thought that was a pc feature since i've only played on mobile š
I would love if preselecting your next hand was reenabled. I miss that. But I can understand if it causes more bugs than itās worth.
balatro will have an update where an update is introduced š„
lol
what we know:
1.1 will come out within the next 60 years and will have at least 2 jokers
fire update š„
and a new banana
frfr
we know that too
Update news: balatro will be updated to 1.1 AFTER the release of 1.0
hope this helps!
Guys something tells me you will be able to play cards in 1.1
If you want to know content information I talk about it in the faq
#šć»frequently-asked
we should write the patch notes
what aspect or part of the game has been critiqued the most?
guys imagin e if localthunk turned Evil and he was globalforgot
wheel.
i bet its the wheel and bloodstone
this is true im a strong believer that wheel is NOT 1/4
The most common criticism is that the game is too random to have a consistently winning strategy
i cant even imagine playing old bloodstone
Skill issue imo
tbf thats roguelikes in general tho
Wether or not you agree with that, go on steam and read the negative reviews
sounds like skill issue tbh
thats like the best part lmao
me when roguelites are roguelites
i think this point is largely addressed by pairs

Itās not skill issue itās a real perception player have that makes them not like the game
It doesnāt mean I have to address that criticism
not even Drspectred can consitently win like that
Skill issue
he kinda does

i mean if you have a game where you always easily win where is the fun then?
maybe add a tutorial button in balatro that just opens drspectred's youtube channel
localthunk you might not know this but ur the goat
it's true
they gon see the video length and check out
ah wait there's a shortened version-
wait he disables all spade cards

that video of 2 mins? lmao
Listen, youāre arguing but the question isnāt whether or not I can argue with people to convince them that itās their fault, the question is what is the major criticism that prevents people from enjoying the game. A solution to that problem isnāt to tell players they have a skill issue or āthatās just roguelikesā
Jimbo will be included in current release version
You select your hand and then play the hand
fair
I think player perception is hard to address fundamentally
There may be some ways to do so but itās hard
i think a big problem is players learning bad habits early and internalizing them
you can never please everyone and I think that's kind of ok
among other issues too hard to say right now
Guiding players a little more forcefully in a more hand-holdy tutorial might help a bit
thats how it workd lol
But I donāt want to do that
Jimbo should roast you for certain decisions and builds
thats so true
Localthunk add creative mode
Yeah and thatās why Iām largely ok with that main criticism
It doesnāt bother me
Maybe have an optional longer tutorial?
At least for me the current tutorial was enough
I've heard Derek Yu talk about this in length
just watch drspectred
The jokers fly now
is my reasoning
a lot of developers need to learn to stick to their vision
there are so many resources for learning balatro
because when they do beautiful stuff happens
Giving players more options is asking them to design their own game
Hot take
is there such a thing of deadrun in a gold stake
too much of the public wants things their way
when they are actually guests at the developers banquet
Iād rather serve what I think is the best version of my game and people can take it or leave it
madeline tarot transforms all kings and jacks into queens
even any pro streamer like roffle or bean too you could learn so much from
and are at the mercy of their host not the other way around
Yeah I mean I watch him but for a player that randomly found the game, it would be better to be in game?
When I started playing the current tutorial was enough to get me hooked
Also this discord exists
there are a few bad apples but a lot of people here like the game and like teaching it
Some of the challenges serve as a tutorial or shed light on some undervalued jokers/card enhancements. The player can interact with the challengeās intended gimmick, or they could just ignore it and do what they want. Itās not forced.
Is there any reason for the tutorial being a one time thing?
balatro is a game that wont have an update in years and people will still be playing it
Anyway if you want to know the main criticisms, go on steam and sort for negative reviews
and idk why and how that works
the only negative balatro review i've seen was some guy saying to add sex
but it does
what
Also some people saying itās kind of an empty calories game, like itās too addicting
I would be surprised if challenges didn't shed a little light into some of the synergies
I don't really care enough to read the negative reviews, I did once because I was curious, but I love the game and I don't really want to hear what others hate about it
I do not want to simp but thanks for the game localthunk
i dont think the game being addictive its a problem
what a nothing burger review hahaha
I dunno I think it can be
not on you rhands
people play the game differently and have differing opinions which is great for uniqueness, but sucks for teaching especially when multiple people are trying to critique and teach at once
like a few days ago my mildly experienced friends said blueprint is one of the worst jokers in the game
It wasnāt an issue for me but I see it is for others
Why is odd todd right eye strange?
we know that it wont make it to casinos
I can see it but the memes might overexaggerate how much

it's because you cooked the drugs
Like oh "this game award boring ahh hell" and it's a picture of them playing Balatro at TGA
I also have played Factorio it is more addicting than balatro, for me it is just a fun game I play when I have free time
It's a very good joker
He's winking
But nowhere near the top 3
I don't think making an addicting game loop is a problem
you want to make a product people come back to and enjoy
But definitely the main gripe I see is the randomness
i can respect that
I think the game is paced well enough for a good casual run imo
thunk can you add yuri to balatro ?
there already is
blueprint and brainstorm is there btw
awezome
I play it on PC but probably a little more on phone because I have an hour long train commute
like the randome elements are what make it good
Yeah, all the decks and stakes allow you to have casual and non casual runs, it is like what flavor of balatro you want today?
add a voucher that adds +1 booster pack slot for more options (joke)
De-LUsional!
and I feel like making it less random would not elp it
I played one or two rounds before bed, helped me fall asleep better than scrolling
While I was working on C++
Yeah like I mentioned Iām fine with the criticism
hey wait a sec
It canāt be for everyone
Oh I'm close to C++ myseld, just got these 11 left
Games are addicting in their own, in every known game there will be a "niche" group being actually addcited to the game, that can be dangerous sometimes, but i actually think with the game being yours it is no problem, we know it wont make it to casinos or stuff like that
- i dont think its your problem at all, you just made a great and enjoyable game
oh true, I love bp bs yuri, they match so good
yurp!
have you heard of debtsbians?
what is that ?
the game is like drugs, most of the time its bad for you, but fun
I mean if the randomness get toned down the game might get too easy
TRUE
The randomness isnāt changing
I have a confession, when I started to play balatro I pirated it in my android, now I have bought it twice in iOS and steam, but my main save is still in my android phone, does anyone know how I can update and buy in android too without losing my progress?
Donāt worry
randomness is not a problem
oh yeah definitely, and the balatro competitions wouldn't be as good
you cant transfer save data
the thing that is exciting is controlling randomness
this is kinda cool, im in a discord server with the creator of balatro
bending it
i love creators of succesful games being close to their people
indeed
I think a lot of indie devs feel like they need to address all criticisms of their game, itās scary having something out there in the world being judged by everyone for every flaw
incredible how the shop is equally if not more exciting than the "card playing"
Rip
But Iāve gotten used to the criticisms and judgement now
Itās easy for me to ignore
ive seen terrible things in that shop
Local Monk
can I have criticism on how it took me 150 hours to get a perkeo on my main file ?
is it too much pressure chaging anything in the game? its pretty balanced (not rebate) and you got a lot of people asking for the 1.1
Judgments?
Creates a joker
overall, gambling is fun, the game has tried to make me cry, succeeded some times, 10/1 would
fair
aww... I got noped
If someone argues that blue stake was fun I can tell them no I know it wasnāt
do you agree on rebate being kinda op?
i saw a guy saying that the face down boss blinds are bad because it's 100% up to luck
i need to go unlock the rest of the jokers rq, yall got any tips?
before you say it guys this does not 100% confirm rebate nerf
don't unlock bloodstone
Rebate is the best joker in the game
it's not close
yeah
its crazy
No but this does
lmao
confirmed rebate nerf!
rebate BE getting nerfed bro
F
we knew this since last year
it def needs a nerf and its sad
Pretty sure Iāve mentioned that one
That along with the blue stake and matador rework
i already got it š
oh the wiki donāt say it my bad guys
best stake is black idc
Is matador gonna get buffed?
bro cursed his shops š„
reworked
buffed in the sense it will be better
i knew these two but my knowledge idk if rebate was mentioned i could be wrong
nope!
no it's not
i saw a negative joker stencil in the shop one time
i was one dollar away from getting it š
very confusing what triggers boss blind means
I can only survive white stake but its still my favorite game rn
Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
pretty inconsistent
I hate Bloodstone
matador gameplay is just bad and boring
only useful on a select few boss blinds and even then itās not good
i blood

I wanted so hard to not hate it but same
This is not the problem with Matador's gameplay
it is a problem tho
it doesn't trigger on the things it logically would
it triggers on ox but not tooth
how do you explain that
it's a problem with its design
Then its not on Matador's gameplay, its more like an oversight
aka a problem with the gameplay
Thats why i say should it get buffed
$8 when you giant wall of text specifically, and nothing else
The complaints on randomness makes me think maybe people really do get a warped impression of the game and it becomes harder for them to play any other way
"If I don't get this set of jokers the game must be random"
I love smeared Joker
2 new more gold sticker
3 more to go
i am now done with stone joker and seance
and holy moly
the negative tag land on the joker i want
I think itās pretty good
Iām kinda bad tho
also vv hater all the way
I can see a Matador rework being a rewording of the boss blinds to have a specific word that tells you it's a triggering boss blind
And each hand just generates 8$
Which skip do y'all take?
c+ is better than me dawg i just have a big ego and think im amazing at the game lol
similar to how all held hand effects tell you they are held hand effects
Only one investment skip on small blind if I'm even paying attention
For 4 hands $28 is a lot tbh
which?
I should get back to work on c++ š„
Its actually 28$ for a whole ante
true but consider itās a full joker slot for a single anteās worth
start gold streaking, it'll humble anyone
granted almost 30 bucks is a lot
Hmm yeah
Matador rework
Baron, flower pot and midas
Bad design
I still dont find it gameplay being a problem
True ig itās situational
It shouldn't be too hard
new balatro challenge, C++ a second time but you have to do it in a backward order as the first time >:D
I took both lmao
iām tryin but iām embarrassed to admit orange stake triumphed me and i havenāt beaten it yet
oh my glob bro
Iām currently 80/150 for c++
it is a confusing effect
To me 28$ (not guaranteed) per ante sucks
Itās ok
if you do it out of order does it reset
eternal damnation
You will get there, 3 new gold sticker is a progress. Which is how i am ended up with most of my run
I agree on the part its confusing on some boss
Sometimes it could be 1 new gold joker
they probably have balatro in eternal damnation
But again i dont see it as the problem with gameplay
only blue stake
Yeah depending on how much Iām playing Iām getting around 3-8 a day
it really is eternal damnationā¦
does showmans effect apply if it's in the shop but not in your joker slots? (like would it affect jokers generated by judgement)
only blue stakes and matadors as far as the eye can seeā¦
Yesterday I got 6 in 1 run it was so cool
Yeah i try the minimum of 3 gold new sticker per day
damn I have all those stickered
Yes
baron can be rough
