I’ve just uninstalled and removed Balatro after yet a near, very close 8/8 ante finish. I have been failing and failing, I’ve only ever seen and gotten to 8/8 ante twice, this being the second time. Every other run has been just insulting me to where no strategy has ever worked, I feel like a lot of it is RNG and pre-determined outcomes based on seeded runs.
And I hate that way of playing. It always feels like I’m getting smacked down by a troll bully who I can never overcome. They’d kick me down every failed run I’d have, then they give me a false sense of security the further I get. “Awwww, getting tired of being owned? Here, let me help you by giving you a few seemingly lucky breaks. SMACK Oh! OWNED YOU AGAIN! FUCK YOU! LOLLOLOL! I BANGED YOUR MOTHER, GIT GUD, NOOB!1”
I just don’t understand why these kinds of games are around, even when I have a good idea who it is for.
Every JRPG with random battles. All of them. Chrono Trigger. Final Fantasy. Phantasy Star.
PvEvP Extraction games. I tried Arc Raiders during the closed alpha. I tried Dark and Darker. I tried Dungeon Stalkers. I tried Sea of Thieves. I tried The Cycle. None of them were fun to me.
MMORPGs. I really want to like this, but I hate how they fall feel like a theme park. Elder Scrolls Online Morrowind is the one I played the most, and being a fan of Morrowind,it was disappointing. I feel like I am waiting in a line for a ride whenever I am around other players doing an activity. I hate to say it, but Destiny 1 was the best feeling MMORPG I played because I didnt feel like I was waiting in a line due to other players. The zoning between solo and shared areas felt the best I guess.
Hm I kind of don’t understand your MMORPG experience. I have never played eso so I can’t comment on that but for example gw2 has basically none of these problems. I can understand for example in FFXIV when you play dps and quene for specific dungeons or raids alone that waiting doesn’t feel nice but at the same time you can do other activities while waiting. If you play a healer or support this problem is normally mute
I think in the pixel remasters for Final Fantasy 1-6 you can disable random battles but then you have to play on easy.
