Was going for the unlock for a 12 round win, but miscounted and finished with 13  The panel for current run info doesn't show # rounds played so far, but just realized it shows the blinds and tags for the current ante lol. Probably should use that more.

Debuffed cards make the Flowerpot not work. Flowerpot is already by far the worst of the mult jokers, even worse than the stupid idol, somehow. I'm sorry, but if the many ways bosses can debuff individual cards blocks that entire card, it needs to have a x5 mult to make that worth it. x3 is nowhere near strong enough.

Decided to take a break from slamming my head against Purple stakes to go for the $400 unlock. Figured I'd use the Anaglyph deck and unload the Double tags when I got something that gave me extra money. I didn't get a single tag that gave money the whole attempt. Still got the unlock anyway:  I had both vouchers that increased the interest earned, so I was getting $20+ per round played at the end.

Regency Solitaire and its spinoff Shadowhand are decent games that my partner enjoyed enough to beat and replay, but they arent designed super tightly and they have a narrative focus that means they arent really in the same space as 'poker roguelike' at all so... yeah. Sorry dev guy but you made a game aimed at a much more narrowly scoped audience? I guess this is a decent enough attempt to build buzz Fuligin fucked around with this message at 07:59 on Mar 11, 2024 |

At least the idol can become a x32 mult if you have a tiny deck with only 1 or 2 distinct cards that you use to do Five of a kind (with each card giving you x2). Potentially it'd be x1024 if you retrigger the cards. It's extremely niche, but it's the kind of thing you abuse to go infinite. There's a reason you unlock it after getting a 1 million chips hand. Flowerpot is just bad yeah. It seems like it's meant for wildcards but wildcards just suck.

Yeah, I've heard Regency Solitaire is a fun enough game, but it's nothing like Balatro, the audience overlap can't be anything other than "small", and the amount of people that were like "I have exactly [equivalent of 15 euro in local currency], guess I better buy Balatro over Regency Solitaire 2 " must be miniscule. Like yeah whatever, sucks to make less money than the other guy, but this is apples to oranges, and it just makes me not care for RS if the dev is gonna whine like that tbh.

I got three legendary jokers in like 40 hours, but I've heard some people have gone 100 hours without seeing a single one.

If a single wild card was enough to trigger it, flowerpot might actually be takeable. As is, I have never bought it even once. v0v

I just saw there's an "Unlock All" button in the Profile menu, is that gonna unlock everything in the Collection? Is there any downside to clicking it at all? I wanted to unlock everything first before doing Gold attempts but I'd rather not fish for four 7 of Clubs and stuff if I don't have to

I hate wildcards with a passion but flower pot's not unusable. It's only moderately worse than, say, Card Sharp, which by definition doesn't activate every play and also has multiple bosses that block it. x3 is a lot and is worth putting up with some hassle for.

Can a single wild card benefit from multiple suit interactions? EG: You have hearts and spades give +4 multi, will a wild trigger both? Even if so, wild feels honestly a little weak of a modifier when you compare it to the chip and multi tarots giving you two cards. If you're going for suit synergy, suit switcher tarots give you 3 cards, though you need to get the right one, and obviously that's less flexible then wild, but I assume there's not a lot of strats that benefit from wild over just having the specific suit you want? Unless you're trying to dodge suit debuffers, in which case Wild is of zero help. Would it be too powerful if wild was treated as just a suit and not an enhancement? Or would it be too much for the tarot to convert 2 wilds instead of 1?

2 wilds for one tarot seems reasonable to me. Wild card is not a good enough buff especially when competing with other enhancements that you should only ever get one at a time.

to fix wilds I'd like to see 1) more bosses to dilute the boss pool (or make the 4 suit bosses show up 1/4 as often) 2) more jokers like ancient joker 3) flower pot buff

Nihilarian posted:for flowerpot specifically, a wild card counts as any one suit. You still need 3 other suits to activate flowerpot. I don't know why when basically every other joker counts it as any suit. It's a really bad joker. The alternative, where any wild card would auto-trigger flower pot, seems overpowered.

Fork of Unknown Origins posted:The alternative, where any wild card would auto-trigger flower pot, seems overpowered. I would disagree considering the downside is that wildcards are hard countered by a quarter of the boss blinds. If they're going to always count as every suit for boss abilities then they should always count as every suit for flower pot, and if they're only going to count for one suit for flower pot then they shouldn't get hit by boss blinds.

Had a fun run with Abandoned Deck: Walkie Talkie, Dusk and of course, Ride the Bus. Negative Rocket was real nice too. Just throw out junk hands and discards so my final hand is a bunch of 10's and 4s. Even managed to get a few five of a kinds.Fork of Unknown Origins posted:The alternative, where any wild card would auto-trigger flower pot, seems overpowered. I'm not sure how overpowered that would be since you need to draw the wild and amassing them take some focus/luck. As previously mentioned, turning cards wild means you can't do multi/bonus either, and you'd probably also need a second aspect to your strategy, but I guess if you are doing wilds, you can go for a flush deck. and then get hard countered by one of the suit or flush boss counters. (Although Ox is kind of funny because it's like "jokes on you, i'm already poor." ) Oxyclean fucked around with this message at 17:10 on Mar 11, 2024 |
