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.
Cyberpunk 2077. I thought I would enjoy it as much as Witcher 3, nop. But then again, I played it few months after it came out. Heard it got better, so maybe I will try again one-day.
It’s OK. there are unskippable cutscenes and you occasionally get locked out of going other places, skipping time, or generally doing something you want to do because story. I hate that.
And the car handles like absolute butt.
And the UI is also butt.
Cyberpunk is my vote but I am pretty sure it is my fault. I expected GTA, what I got was an interactive story. I decided to see where the story lead until at some point I kept dying so far past a save point that I couldn’t bring myself to play that section yet again. Then I remembered that games are supposed to be fun and Cyberpunk ended up being a grind.
I played it a few months ago, really enjoyed it and put about 300 hours in. I’m told it was shit at launch though.
Sounds like my experience with the first Watchdogs game. I snagged it a couple of years after launch, thoroughly enjoyed it and it was honestly one of my top games of that year. Apparently that’s the trick sometimes is don’t buy whatever game at launch
2.0 changed the game mechanics completely
Just playing through Phantom Liberty is worth it IMO, especially if you get it on sale
as soon as you said “cyberpunk 2077” and before i finished tour comment, i knew you played it at release. if you own it, the try it out.
