Each day I'm forced to acknowledge that WW3 can't come fast enough, might as well make my own serial No. Infinity

Dropped Balatro after 12 hours despite having thousands across other RLDB(Sts, Chrono Ark, Peglin etc). Pirated Megabonk and it looks like some sort of generative Ai garbage filled with dopamine hits and 0 actual gameplay. Running in circles while your character plays itself is not a game. Peak is just garbage for streamers. It wasn't fun I just refunded it.

I love Balatro but Slay the Spire is superior, fucking excellent game with nice theme and atmosphere, I am excited for Slay the Spire 2

Ror2 is a video game with actual gameplay. Megabonk is not.

It's ok by yourself but it shines with others since the helping hand mechanics just helps everyone. Probably should look out for the CAIRN demo if you're into climbing solo. It has more indepth mechanics.

The core gameplay involves positioning, dodging, exploration, and decision making. You have to think about what weapons and upgrades you pick so you have effective synergies.
That's why the games tend to get addicting, not the "number go up" claim, but the random chance to pull off a successful build and see how well it works.

In that sense, Vampire Survivors and Balatro alike operate on increasing a mult to surpass a threshold to keep the game going, and everything you do is to improve your build to survive each checkpoint.

For me it just wasn't fun nor challenging or interesting at all. I really tried to get into it, but after 12 hours I just gave up. It feels like a really shitty dopamine similator.

Megabonk is too barebones, I had more fun with Ball x Pit.
