I’ve just uninstalled and removed Balatro after yet a near, very close 8/8 ante finish. I have been failing and failing, I’ve only ever seen and gotten to 8/8 ante twice, this being the second time. Every other run has been just insulting me to where no strategy has ever worked, I feel like a lot of it is RNG and pre-determined outcomes based on seeded runs.

And I hate that way of playing. It always feels like I’m getting smacked down by a troll bully who I can never overcome. They’d kick me down every failed run I’d have, then they give me a false sense of security the further I get. “Awwww, getting tired of being owned? Here, let me help you by giving you a few seemingly lucky breaks. SMACK Oh! OWNED YOU AGAIN! FUCK YOU! LOLLOLOL! I BANGED YOUR MOTHER, GIT GUD, NOOB!1”

I just don’t understand why these kinds of games are around, even when I have a good idea who it is for.

    I think you only need one piece of the flamebreaker set to be fireproof in Goron City.

    whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat.

      it’s true!

      But the game has established multiple times that a set only gives a bonus on full equip!

        That’s still true in BotW. (I think it requires the set to be upgraded as well.) The bonus from the Flamebreaker set is fire damage immunity, which can be handy when fighting certain enemies. You don’t need that bonus just to be in a scorched climate, though.
