Woke up early to play more One annoying thing I noticed: Party members you don't control attack way too infrequently...their ATB Gauge barely fills up during fights. I don't remember if it was the same in Remake but goodness me it's infuriating Aerith is my designated healer right now with Cure set as an Auto-Ability but it's useless when I have to keep watching HP and her ATB Gauge.

Have I played this for 5 1/2 hours straight today? Yes! Will I play more after a Helldivers session? YES!

Hope the play disc works, once it's installed Looking forward to hearing your thoughts about this one And @Julius get on with INTERmission. Screw responsibilities. IT'S GAMING TIME, BABY. I don't know why I wrote that.

That sucks. Hope it'll get sorted quickly!

Played it for 4 hours straight... It's good, ya'll!

Didn't know about that Already in love with this game

Traded in FFXVI and CoD:MWIII to pick up a copy It's installing...I hate waiting

It's a dangerous game for sure It's crazy how much it sucks... These Stakes really do feel like Slay the Spire's Ascensions. You need to get fairly lucky early to have a chance to survive and then just play like a genius. Even then, RNG can and will fuck you up at times. Love it I might focus on unlocking the final 4 jokers next, before tackling all Stakes with all Decks. I need to play a 5 card hand that only contains Gold cards play a hand that contains four 7 of Clubs discard 5 Jacks at the same time in one hand, earn at least 100,000,000 chips

Gonna see if I can get a cheap copy after work Rushed through the demo last night so I can get some rewards in the full game because I'm a sucker like that

Won a run on standard difficulty with every deck For my list, I'm counting Balatro as "finished", but I'm far from done with it

I don't understand the problem...simply create infinite sequels for Slay the Spire and Balatro and the industry is saved

It's 2.99€ on the PSN store right now.

Whoohoo, I did it Now it's time to win a run with every Deck on every difficulty. Gonna be tough. The final difficulty reduces hand size by 1, which sucks My playtime is now at 36h. Yes...out of the last 7 days I spent 1 1/2 days playing this game.

Been waiting patiently for Sifu to arrive on PS+

Yeesh...the industry is in a bad place...

Played it for a few hours tonight. This time not with randos but with a friend and one of his colleagues. First of all: Cross-play is great. And the Discord implementation is awesome! Easy communication between PC and PS5 players About the gaming session: Haven't had this much fun with a co-op game in a looooong time Absolute chaos, madness and banter. We had an easy time on the bug planets but got our ass handed to us during our first Automaton mission Once we adjusted it was much easier. We did, however, only play on medium difficulty, so there's that

There's no shortage of people to talk to. Last Thursday, I approached a couple of people and we had a nice chat before the concert started. We all enjoy the same thing, in that case NBT. It's easy to find at least one topic to talk about During the concert, though: no talking, only dancing, singing, jumping

For some reason, going to the cinema alone still feels weird to me (definitely on my to-do list, though) and yet, I've been to several concerts by myself.

Thanks to certain things I decided to postpone my final Bachelor's exam to next semester - which means: I'll probably pick up FFVII: Rebirth sooner, rather than later. Hopefully I can clear my head a bit until launch day, so I can enjoy it early and take part in discussions here

Currently trying to unlock the final Deck, which requires me to win a run on Orange Stake. Haven't unlocked that difficulty, yet, though Managed to win runs at the first five difficulties with the first Deck so there are only three Stakes left. I assume Orange Stake is the second to last. What do Ascensions Stakes do in Balatro? White Stake - nothing Red Stake - Small Blind gives no reward money Green Stake - required score scales faster for each Ante Blue Stake - -1 Discard Black Stake - Shop can have Eternal Jokers (can't be sold or destroyed) Purple Stake - Required score scales faster for each Ante ? ? And yes, each Stake applies all previous Stakes Runs are quite difficult now. I love it! Getting Gold Stickers for all jokers will be a nightmare, though. Winning a run at the highest difficulty with particular jokers in your inventory at the end? Gonna be an RNG-riddled nightmare

Good man They played it last night during the encore and it was a banger! What a concert. Aside from some power issues, which caused a mid-concert delay, City Haunts being aborted and two songs being played early, it was awesome. The two songs were Drawing Pins and Lover, Please Stay. The latter was sooooo good. Connor's voice is a marvel. After those songs, they finally played City Haunts and I did not expect Connor to hit all those notes live I should have, but that song is tough! Anyways, I cried during three songs: Tomorrow is Closed, as expected; Lover, Please Stay - did not expect that, but it's such a beautiful song; Impossible - how can you not @Julius go see them if you ever get the chance. Edit: Forgot to mention: They apparently didn't play Pop The Balloon due to the power issues But they played Trip Switch. It's kinda funny when you know the lyrics. Just found out that instead of Pop The Balloon they added Drawing Pins. During the tour they switch Drawing Pins with This feels like the End from concert to concert but they played both last night

Sometimes a run can be super easy: Obviously, it was based on diamond flushes Very happy that lots of cards were enhanced. For example: 3 Queens of Diamond were glass cards which means they multiply the multiplier - yes - by 2 when played but have a 1 in 4 chance to be destroyed. The final round was pretty great, as I played a flush with all three. My Jokers and the glass enhancements made quick work of the required score The more I play, the more I realize that sometimes the game can screw you over very early. There's one Boss Blind that reduces the level of the hands you play (levels decide how many chips and multiplier a poker hand provides) and if you get it early you can get fucked pretty easily. You also need to get a good joker early, especially in higher difficulties, because otherwise your run ends quicker than you can say "I don't have a gambling problem". These situations happen quite rarely, though. Most of my runs end further in. Mostly because I misplay or try to do something fancy Anyways, hope to get a few more runs in before I get to leave for the concert tonight

11 hours played in two days...shows how much I'm enjoying this Managed to unlock all Decks that are not locked behind difficulties. Only five more Decks left (all locked behind the first 5 higher Stakes) and then it's time to "ascend" with each Deck. Sadly, I won't be able to play much until Saturday And I might not play much during the weekend, either...I'll try to get some rounds in, though. Can't not play it for a few days.

I don't need to tell you that this game has taken over my gaming life This might become my new Slay the Spire, which means I will tell you a million times to buy and play it. SO BUY AND PLAY IT! Anyways, I spent 5 hours with Balatro last night and I got today off from work again... Managed to win a run with the first 5 decks and that unlocked Challenges (which add rules, restrictions, starting deck, etc.) - there are 20 but only 5 are available to me right now. The content this game provides is staggering. And the possibility for more exists, which excites me to no end Time to start a new run with Deck #6 Yes, I will post here from time to time and you will read it and you will enjoy it.
