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.

    Terraria. Hate me.

    I am not the fan of looking up guides and other info out of the game, and I also kiiiinda suck in full sandbox due to, generally, not being good at setting my own targets.

    Like give me some final task and I am happy to work towards it, but with no target whatsoever I am kinda lost.

    However, last I played Terraria was decade ago so stuff may have changed. xD

      I’ll vouch some for this. I had tried getting back into Terraria some odd months ago. So much has changed, you’ll end up going to the guides almost guaranteed more than ever. It’s very overwhelming now, to where I’m honestly missing the earlier days. Like, before Moon Lord was added in.
