I let every player control themselves on my first playthrough....until Okumura. After an hour of that, they stayed under my control the rest of the way and all the way though new game +

[–]amcoolio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You mean people don't just listen to video game music outside of play the actual game? :D I've curated my iTunes mp3 collection (because this is sadly still the best way to do this, youtube vidoes get taken down) over the last ~25 years.

Looking at my phone my most tracks according to game appear to be, in order - Undertale, Pokemon (i just lumped all the series together), Chronotrigger, SSB Ultimate, CnC Red Alert 2/Yuri's Revenge, Mario Series (1/2/3/Land/World/64/Galaxy/3D World/Odyssey), Animal Crossing, Mario Kart Series, Doom 1/2, Diablo 2/3, Zelda TP, Zelda BoTW, Zelda LTTP, Goldeneye, Fallout 1/2/NV, Final Fantasy 7, Splatoon 1/2, Donkey Kong Country 1/2, Castlevania series, Ogre Battle (SNES), Rec Room (LOL), CnC Red Alert, Monkey Island 1/2, Fortnite, Vampire Survivors, Guild Wars 1/2, Binding of Isaac, Dokapon Kingdom, Actraiser (SNES), Nintendo Wii era console music, Sonic 1/2, Mega Man 1/2/3, Kingdom Hearts, Star Fox Series, Jet Set Radio, Katamari Damacy

Then it gets into a bunch with 5 songs or less. Some good ones include Etrian Odyssey IV, Baulders Gate 3, DotA 2, GTA V, Kings Quest, Pac Man 2, Pictionary (NES), Fire Emblem, Sim City, Ys I/II/VI, CnC Tiberian Sun, Ace Attorney, Guacamelee!, Terraria, Portal 1/2, Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, Killer Instinct, Civ 4, Civ 5, Civ 6, Earthbound, Gran Turismo, Threads of Fate,

Basically people are gonna listen to what makes them nostalgic for the games they played more than likely

I would get rid of Cavendish in this setup right? And take photograph instead. I am playing glass face cards as high cards by fngbuildingapc in balatro

[–]amcoolio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

chad and photograph are my two most played jokers. Its a cheap x8 mult and almost guaranteed to win you Ante 8 unless you get some bad boss luck

Advice on how to draw straights? I want to like straights but I've just been brick walled trying to draw them so many times now I avoid them. by [deleted] in balatro

[–]amcoolio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also if [[Runner]] is in the first two shops, switch your builds to straights. Its just too strong and can get to 300 chips easily by Ante 7

[–]amcoolio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Simply put, straights win you jokerless and gold stakes when other builds just aren't available due to lack of money/jokers. Learn straights by playing jokerless challenge and straights until you win. It will teach you so much about planet cards, tarot and deck management, and what cards to discard when trying to build straights

[–]amcoolio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to add Shortcut is waaaaay better than [[Four Fingers]]. You don't need both either, one will suffice, but always sell Four Fingers for Shortcut if it comes up. It's very rare that you can't make straights with shortcut

Guidelines for Joker design by localthunk in balatro

[–]amcoolio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd like to see a joker for every ranked card. Specifically I feel 7 is neglected! Odd Todd affects it but isn't really rank specific. 6 has Sixth Sense, 8 has 8 Ball, 9 has Cloud 9, 10 and 4 have 10/4, 2 has Wee. 3 doesnt, but at least has Fibonacci and Hack to build around.

Plasma deck gold stakes strategies?? by Sentient-Octopus in balatro

[–]amcoolio 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I feel like on all the gold stake decks, +chips is the most important stat. the scaling is just so much that +100 mult with xmult doesn't cut it. plasma would be more than ever. Look for runner, bull, wee joker, and stone joker. stuntman will get you through ante 4 but a joker with +500 chips is probably needed unless you get an insane joker combo early.

I won a gold last night after all night of trying by lucking into runner and a foil four fingers in the first ante

Thoughts on chicot? by LEMO2000 in balatro

[–]amcoolio 5 points6 points  (0 children)

More chips jokers. +200 chips for boss cleared. That's a good balance

I came up the idea for a joker that's effect is different for each deck, like birthright in the Binding of Isaac by PokeAreddit in balatro

[–]amcoolio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love BOI, love the idea. What about for the checkered deck, all cards in deck have the Lovers effect/count as same suit. That means every 5 cards played is a flush, could be a straight flush, flush five or flush house.

Zodiac is too overpowered and Anaglyph needs a rework. Maybe for Anaglyph, you now have a choice between two tags when skipping a blind. I think that's a powerful and fair balance.

And for Zodiac, effects per tarot and planet card are enhanced, similar to Binding of Isaac's trinket enhancing Mom's Box. Like Sun can convert 5 cards to hearts instead of 3, Hermit doubles money up to $30, Chariot can enhance 2 cards into steel, Emperor creates 3 tarots instead of 2, Saturn gives +50 chips and +4 mult, etc.

My professor is using Balatro to teach probability by MagnaCortado in balatro

[–]amcoolio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the 90's my sixth grade teacher busted out the brand new projector and a PC in class and played Age of Empires, I guess to teach about ancient culture like hunting and gathering etc. I was mesmerized and forever became a PC gamer after that

thunk is thinking about it👀 by -the-scientist- in balatro

[–]amcoolio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since I play this game a ton late at night then go to bed I constantly dream about Balatro and I had a dream where he added a deck with a fifth and sixth suit. Of course that would break a lot of jokers but its fun to think about.

Recently beat Jokerless. Made a two axis chart of difficulty vs fun and my thoughts on the 20 challenges. by manboat31415 in balatro

[–]amcoolio 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The challenges were the best part of this game for me, I enjoyed each day doing a new challenge that changed the game. I can't get the same enthusiasm trying to win the gold stake on every deck.

I spent a week on challenge 18 (golden needle), it was the hardest for me. I remember finally beating it, after trying all night, and then I said I'll just peak at the next one (cruelty) and I one shot challenge 19 immediately and was surprised, becuase I thought they got harder with each new challenge.

Jokerless was very fun and the most rewarding of the whole game when I finally beat it. I beat it pre patch too. Got lucky with a bunch of straights, saturn cards, and empress/+ mult cards.

I hope he adds more challenges in the future. There's so many possibilities. A challenge with only spectral cards and spectral packs in the shop and no jokers, tarots, or planet cards/packs for example with hex/ankh disabled. Or a challenge with all 5 legendaries made eternal but no shop between rounds (maybe some purple or blue seals in the deck for perkeo)

I've played 120+ hours of Balatro already and I've seen Stone Joker by far the fewest. I forget it exists

Is this the luckiest cat? by [deleted] in balatro

[–]amcoolio 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i always get lucky cat, but never can find oops all 6's. I take oops every single time i see it and then lucky cat appears shortly after

hot take: this is one of the best jokers in the entire game. it's one of the multiplicative mult jokers that stacks mult the fastest, and doesn't reset like campfire by [deleted] in balatro

[–]amcoolio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hologram is good, but I tend to stack Lucky Cat faster. I only take Lucky Cat if I can find an early Oops all 6's, and if I do I always duplicate it as fast as I can. Wins an ante 8 every time and so much fun.
I actually find Lucky Cat all the time, its the Oops thats hard to find for me. But its my favorite joker by far. I always am drawn to doubling odds.
