  1. I've genuinely sunk at least 12 hours into the game since I said this. Yes, I'm obsessed with the game BUT... I finally won on gold stake let's gooooo!!! Verdant Leaf was a nice one. I had Oops All 6s which helped with the Bloodstone. Sold that to get rid of the debuff and used my create a joker tarot, giving me the gold joker which was a lil useless but! didn't matter! I had the joker stencil earlier as well, but as I had 6/6 jokers otherwise it didn't do anything so sold that, having the Negative Blueprint with the Card Sharp, as well as Supernova and Bloodstone was an absolute elite combo on checkered deck so I'm veeeeery glad it led to the win.
  2. Still obsessed with Balatro. Gold stake is ridiculously hard and I'm sure I've pumped like 50+ hours into it at this point. So many times I've come SO close to winning and losing at the ante 8 boss. I need a break but I need to WIN.
  3. That one's great. Maybe my favourite card. If you aren't aware (minor spoilers for how to obtain it again in the future)...
  4. I generally find my most success comes from focusing on flushes and leveling them up as much as I can. I tried to get as many clubs as I can and I actually got to the eighth ante! ...But I lost on the small blind If anyone wants to have a go at it the seed is V6CWJ7MI. Just got onto a really fun run when I was absolutely stakcing my deck with clubs... as I had the Gluttonous Joker, and then of course I meet the boss who debuffs all clubs! Absolutely ruined me. Think I'm just about on my way to winning my first game. I've got the baseball card which means all uncommon jokers give x1.5 mult, and I've got 5 other uncommon jokers, and all of them have other conditions which mean that I'm winning each round in the first hand by about x3 the score they actually need for the whole thing. It's fun! Ended up winning and getting to ante 11 before I got absolutely crushed!
  5. I've got to ante 7 once, and yeah, it really depends on how your jokers deck look and upgrading your poker hands in a way that's relevant to your run. I had a run where I kept getting flushes and straights and for like the next ten or so runs I was focusing on them and upgrading those, but they didn't come up as often and I ended up tanking all those runs! I love that it really needs you to pay attention to that specific run as opposed to the game as a whole, but I suppose that's how the whole genre works. I ended up on the game for another 2 hours yesterday and I'm back on it again this morning. I can't get enough
  6. I'd recommend Balatro to anyone who likes a roguelite and deckbuilding games. It's quite similar to Slay the Spire but is centred around poker. It's a lot of fun! It takes a lot for me to stay invested in a game but I've sunk around 6 hours into this today alone.
  7. Dammit, I was just thinking about how much I wanted Red Dead on PC as well
  8. Just mentioned it in another thread but!! it's great isn't it!! I've already seen it twice and would not object to going again, it was so much fun.
  9. I've watched Barbie twice this week! What a wonderful movie, had a great time both times!! It's deeper than you'd anticipate if you go in blind, but absolutely packed with jokes and silly moments. I loved it.
  10. Aaaaand I lost the mini-league, despite going into it with a 20 point lead! Brutal! Harry bloody Kane cost me the whole thing.
  11. I have currently 3 points in my fantasy team. Only 6 players actually started in my XI, TAA just lost a point for conceding twice, and Trippier scored an own goal. It's a horrible time!
  12. Reading's 6 point deduction really saved Cardiff's ass this season, huh.
  13. I usually just give up. It depends how invested I am, though. I've been there with games that's taken me hours and hours to beat it, my mind goes straight to the Harry Potter PS1 level where you have to get all the coins at Gringotts and the final level in Simpsons Hit and Run, and I persevered... but then there's also Mass Effect 2 which comes to mind, I struggled to beat one of the sections really early in the game about 15 years ago, and I've just never touched it since.
