Poker is a gambling game. Balatro is loosely based on poker. Throw in some additional luck/randomness and change the money aspect to points. Gambling and addiction in general are devastating.
It would be interesting to compare brain activity of a gambling addict at the casino with a dedicated balatro player. I have my suspicions about what we would see.
Chess is a war game. Killing and violence in general are devastating. It’d be interesting to compare the brain activity of a murderer with a grandmaster player. I have my suspicions about what we would see.
Same. It was my games festival. Though it was too corporatey, it was the one delightful part of the year where I could get excited about the most insignificant and significant announcements. And how could you forget the vague, CGI trailers that always overpromised.
I can’t make you like it if you didn’t enjoy it the first time, but I thought it was a great FPS and RPG that didn’t waste enough time, like its contemporaries might, to become boring. If you gave it a few hours, you’ve probably seen the cut of its jib.
I have been waiting for this for so long that I even forgot it’s coming. This game released 6(!!!) years ago and ended on a cliffhanger with a “to be continued”. And it’s still going to be free, hell yes!
