Some Thoughts On Balatro

Good morning! Here are some thoughts on Balatro! This game is absolutely fascinating, and does things in such a different way to other roguelikes, all very positively. Thought #1 requires a little knowledge of other roguelikes (Isaac, STS, Risk of Rain, and Nuclear Throne). Thought #3 I believe to be the most interesting aswell, so if you get bored hearing me talk about Isaac for too long in Thought #1, try that one :). Feel free to ask any questions or elaborate or give your thoughts in either the comments (happily willing to engage interesting discussion about Balatro), or on the Spidz YouTube Discord Server -   / discord  , whichever you prefer. This video especially has gone through so many edits (especially in the audio quality, which bounced around between like 3 separate recording sessions in 3 different months :skull:) -- I think in some places I can be unclear or possibly contentious, as much as I've tried to make things clear, so feel free to ask anything! The other Some Thoughts On Videos:    • Some Thoughts On   Particularly, there's one on Slay The Spire and One Step From Eden, if you're into Roguebuilding Decklikes.
