drahkon Posted May 3 Author Posted May 3 I think the Blue Seal change is my fav from the patch. Being able to more or less consistently upgrade a certain hand type is great. Much better than how it was before! I sometimes prefer it over adding a Red Seal when given the chance from a Spectral Pack. Which says a lot as Red Seals are incredibly useful.
drahkon Posted May 4 Author Posted May 4 Unlocked every Joker on the PC version just now. Now I gotta find the remaining 7 in a run to complete my collection. Also completed Green Stake with every Deck! Can't wait for the new patch to arrive on PS5 so I can start the trophy hunt, which will probably be an RNG nightmare

Looking forward to that!
drahkon Posted May 9 Author Posted May 9 Black Stake complete with every Deck! 55.5 hours of playtime on PC, 88 hours on PS5. Am I addicted? NO AND SHUT UP! 2
drahkon Posted May 20 Author Posted May 20 Looks like the latest patch arrived on consoles last Friday just as I was leaving town for the weekend I'm back now and ready to start the trophy hunt! It's gonna be a long journey! 2
Dcubed Posted May 26 Posted May 26 Hey! Remember when I said that I’d never be able to top that Legendary Run I had before… Well… about that… Numbers go boom. 1
drahkon Posted May 29 Author Posted May 29 I have now reached Orange Stake with every deck on PC/Steam Deck. Total playtime PC: 89 hours Total playtime PS5: 90 hours Getting dangerously close to 200 hours of Balatro playtime. 2
drahkon Posted June 3 Author Posted June 3 (edited) FUCK the Black Deck, all my homies hate the Black Deck. Managed to win Gold Stake on PC with it. Now I'm dealing with it on PS5. The "-1 hand" modifier is the worst. THIS IS HORRIBLE. HELP. Edited June 3 by drahkon 1
Dcubed Posted June 4 Posted June 4 Yeah… Black Deck is rough. Still haven’t managed to beat Green Stake with it yet…
drahkon Posted June 4 Author Posted June 4 Sometimes the stars align: Kinda sad that both only got to X8 Mult (my Taro luck was crap) but...and this is going to be awesome: FUCK YOU, BLACK DECK. I will never play you again. until Balatro is released on Android 1
Dcubed Posted June 5 Posted June 5 Just found out that this year’s SGDQ is gonna feature a Balatro run! (3 decks, random seed, skipless). https://gamesdonequick.com/marathons/clut3zj5r0002xc01yi4t61gf This’ gonna be sick yo
drahkon Posted June 21 Author Posted June 21 The Balatro thread on the second page of Other Consoles? Haven't played this a lot in the past two weeks (now at 107h on PS5 and 111h on PC) but I did manage to clear Painted Deck on Gold Stake on PC. It's not a particularly difficult Deck but I hate it. Currently trying Gold Stake with it on PS5 and I make silly mistakes early Anyways, can't wait for it to be done so I can move on to the other Decks which I prefer immensely.
drahkon Posted July 15 Author Posted July 15 (edited) After almost 140h on the PC version: Gold Stake completed with every Deck! The Steam Achievement didn't unlock Oh well... Think I'm gonna take a break from the game for a while and then tackle all remaining Stakes on PS5 Edited July 15 by drahkon 1
Julius Posted August 7 Posted August 7 The game has now sold over 2 million copies, and the first major update to the game has been announced as arriving in 2025: There will also apparently be two surprises coming this summer... 1 1
drahkon Posted August 7 Author Posted August 7 Yeah, that's a smartphone/tablet under those three cards So one of the other two red cards will reveal the mobile version. Haven't played this in quite a while but will definitely do in 2025 with added content
Julius Posted August 27 Posted August 27 The free Friends of Jimbo update announced during today's Indie World Showcase: Quote Customize your deck with 4 exciting collaborations from the worlds of The VWitcher, Vampire Survivors, Dave The Diver Among Us in the Balatro: Friends of Jimbo free update available today! They've done an excellent job from the outside looking in of adding so much to this game, fair play to them 1
Dcubed Posted August 27 Posted August 27 Shame it’s only cosmetic, but I’ll still be rocking those Vampire Survivors cards
Julius Posted September 5 Posted September 5 Balatro Mobile releases on 26th September, launching on the Google Play Store, the App store and Apple Arcade. Love that the tag on their Twitter account for this is "Productivity be damned" @drahkon say I don't do every single thing in this game but wanted to "complete" it and get a good grasp on what it has to offer, how long of a commitment do you think I'd be in for? Your love for the game has worn me down somewhat that I'm finally considering giving it a shot, just trying to figure out when I can fit it in before the end of the year 1 1

Hard to say. Anything between 10-50 hours, really. You can get the main mechanics down pretty quickly and then just play around some of the Jokers with one of the early Decks. 1
