>500 knockoff attempts>not one of them even worth playing, let alone near as good as the originalIt's become too easy for trash devs to spin up half-presentable slop and shit up store pages
>>719579341The only reason a dev makes a luck-based game like this is because they are neither intelligent nor skilled enough to make a good, challenging puzzle game.The only reason players play luck-based games like these is because they are neither intelligent nor skilled enough to win at good, challenging puzzle games.These games exploit flaws in the human psyche that makes low-ability individuals feel like they can win even without the necessary skill or mental fortitude, thereby creating "addictive" play loops where people just sit around as long as it takes and wait for the stars to align, rather than playing games where they directly and wholly impact the outcome through self-improvement.

>>719580468You don't need to put your nose right up to a pile of dog shit to know it's a pile of dog shit.
>>719580264Only gold stake is luck based if you're not retarded.
>>719579341None of them have the right vibes.
>>719579341>>719580264gold stake is the only hard part of this game
>>719580264Let me guess, you think poker is a lucky based game?
>>719580570It's a game about weighting the card game in your favor, calling it luck based is retarded when the game is about making your own luck.
>>719580264I wrote this post because I hate mechanical darwinism and self-serve difficulty.
the difference between 99% of rogueslop goonbuilders and the few standouts is one hasn't been playtested a lot and balanced, and the other has.this is a shame because it's impossible to tell from looking at a steam page whether a game is actually good or not
>spent about a year working on my fetish deck builder roguelike>wouldn't even be allowed on Steam anymore
>>719580264Balatro is not a luck-based game. A man has achieved 100% completion on a save file with 0 losses. This is the same cope as calling Texas Hold 'Em luck-based
>>719579341You can even sodeload the apk from Google store and play in vr with touch "screen" functional on the quest
>>719582885>a man won the lottery multiple times, therefore the lottery is not luck-basedDevs of garbage like BallSlopTrough are extremely fortunate that people of lesser intellect like you exist in such large quantities, because you'll buy literally anything as long as you get the right "vibes" from it.I'll bet in a previous life that you smoked Camels because a print ad told you that """"doctors"""" approve of it.
There is a chess one that is decent
>>719583740what do you reckon then is the probability of a balatro run being winnable with optimal play?
>>719582885Even pro poker players that play on those high stakes with millions call poker a luck based game. You are a retardIn Balatro even if you fuck up 100% of the time you can win in white stake carried by broken jokers. Even a basic easy level in like Mario bros Wii can't be completed by a player with pure luckyou are retarded. Seriously stop posting
>>719581970Ok anon, I'm gonna do you a solidYou put out a demo and start a patreonIf your art is good enough that should net you some cash.Now slowly drip content for the next 5 years while collecting patreon bux every month.Congrats, you probably just made more then you'll ever make on steam.Your art doesn't even need to be insanely good, I know like 4 guys whose art is kind of terrible but they fill particular niches in the fetish community.
>>719584257individual hands of poker are luck-based, that doesn't mean the game itself is luck-based
>>719584257>call poker a luck based game.it's called variation. and in poker you can still win with the worse hand. play poker against me for ~1000 hands and let's see how much money you're left with. you're gonna call yourself simply unlucky, I bet.
