Bio
I do sound design and play games.
Most of my 5 stars are things I wouldn't change.
Most of my 0.5 are things that made life worse for everyone on earth.
Most of my 1 stars are things that could be considered sin but honestly they don't deserve to burn in hell.

I know the dev didn't know poker and well almost anything related to this.
Anyways yesterday I just heard some college students go "balatro is a great game yeah indeed" to then proceed "we should play real poker again, but this time we should bet at least 5 bucks per round, otherwise nobody takes it seriously" and they were pretty much into it.
I'm not the kind of dude who thinks that violent games make people violent (studies have already debunked this), but gambling inspired games MAYBE are making more people gamblers (or more prone to gamble)(studies are inconclusive about this one but quite a bit are leaning more towards, indeed, gambling).
The game is kind of fun I guess, I just dropped it after the demo run, didn't feel any more profound than Vampire Survivros in terms of just being numbers growing just for the sake of it with some graphics that help the brain go "rat wants to press button again".

I wish this game just stood on closed alpha for it's entire lifetime.
The best era was there, both in terms of community, toxicity (which is super hard to regulate in mobas) and actual acceptable decisions in terms of gameplay. They kept making the worst changes ever and it became really really boring.

People were really going OOOH OOOH OOOH and I'm like bro this is just a really sad and disfunctional attempt of a moba with only the bad side of a moba but with a better art direction than most mobas.
