I only played a few games but it feels like you're supposed to play for two pair every time. Is uranus too inconsistent to make that reliable?

Ok the third deck is AWESOME. I've played a few rounds and for every deck it feels like you live or die on whether you get a joker that can carry you through the stage 2 boss while getting to greed (by skipping blinds or by building econ).

So popcorn is just broken right? I can't think of a single turn in the game where I wouldn't buy it immediately (outside of clowny already-won-the-game combos).

I've just been playing Anaglyph over and over. If you buy whatever jokers make you strong enough for the first two antes you can very often just go straight to 50 gold by ante 3 or 4 with an econ blind. It's certainly fun it just seems a bit easy. EDIT:  This isn't even very uncommon with anaglyph.. No Wave fucked around with this message at 04:24 on Feb 5, 2024 |

deep dish peat moss posted:There's one boss that only allows you to play one hand type. Whatever hand you play first is the only hand that will score against them for the entire blind. It's my least favorite boss because it forces you to build your entire deck around one specific hand in case it comes up late enough to be a difficult round, and it discourages having more all-purpose decks that don't focus around playing the same hand over and over. Hard to say how that will change with the full game though.

If the first hand you play is high card your only scoring hand will be high card (ask me how I know!!!)

Bull is fun but it kind of feels like for this game to be balanced $100+ should usually mean a won run anyways. Which makes me wonder about it being so easy to do with anaglyph. If it's the kind of game like Isaac where some decks are just way stronger than others and collecting chips on every different deck is the challenge then I guess it's not a big deal.

Did we talk about the nerfs from a few days ago? Popcorn is -4 now and costs 5 dollars which is a good change. Credit card got buffed which seems wacky to me but whatever. Idk what else has changed but anaglyph is still op.

How do you think the main game's gonna go? I feel like it'll get stale if you're expected to get to the millions every game because there arent as many strategies that scale that high (even recognizing that a lot of jokers will be added to the game the stuff that gets you to 100 million has to be more limited than stuff that gets you to 60k). Maybe the ante 6 boss counts as a win and gets you a blue chip and you can get different colored chips by going higher?

Alkanos posted:I'd also like to see this. They could do it with an exponential requirement so you don't get too much extra (which they';d have to balance around). For example, getting 2x the blind would get $1, 4x is $2, 8x is $3, etc. That way even if you get 10x the amount needed, it's not even enough for a single joker. But it's still a nice bonus.

If its any consolation you do get a gold per remaining hand so you get a pretty substantial reward for being above the power curve. But I agree there's definitely a gulf between what the game wants out of you and what players actually like doing (taking screenshots of complete overkill).

The new face card archetype is simultaneously broken and tedious. Farming 25 gold a round gets kind of old after two blinds.

Gold deck seems strongest of the five basics imo. There are so many ridiculous econ cards that spending down early (even with credit card) is just a super strong way to play. I'm probably gonna try to do all the difficulties with it.

I think playing only disabled cards makes none of your triggers go off the hand is just void. Not 100% as to exactly how the rules work.

Ok, my bad - I guess I'm confusing the behavior with what the mouth does (or at least did in the demo) when you play a new hand where the hand just gets ignored. Ty, worth keeping min mind.

Blueprint is just ridiculous. Best card in game by far imo. You can move it around to double certain econ/tarot generation cards on the relevant turns too.

I know expectations for this game were sky high but it's way better than I thought it would be. The higher difficulties make the game so interesting and the colossal # of jokers in the game makes so many runs crazy and reward you for recognizing combos.

Mechanical question for unlocks: there are some vouchers that are just better versions of other vouchers. Like one that's like Hone but makes foils/holos/prismatics 4x as common instead of 2x. Are there conditions for having them show up in a run?

An extra joker slot is not worth the reduced hand count. I can’t think of any synergies the deck is good for.
