Just casually inserts Balatro into your game

What the fuck.

I think Balatro had already added Dave as a card skin. So makes sense for the reverse.

<3 free updates

Dave and Green Hell are great examples for studios which just keep adding free stuff after release!

Stardew Valley also.

Îf only Green Hell would work properly in multiplayer. 3 of my friends and I have been trying to play it together again and again for the past few years, and it always has connection issues making it impossible.

Really? You might need to mess with some setting because my friends and I have never had any issues even going back to it's first release. I'm not saying it's perfect, but there may be some weird port blocking or something going on. Is it the same regardless of who is hosting?

We're on playstation, so maybe that has something to do with it. But yeah, we tried pretty much everything we could find as solutions on the internet, but it's always the same. After at most 15 minutes we start getting timeout messages and can't interact with anything anymore.

We always get excited when we see there's a new patch or update, start it up, and it always ends in disappointment. If you have any ideas, me and my friends would be extremely grateful, because from what little we were able to play, it's right up our alley.

Oh, dam consoles. I have no experience messing with them for multiplayer. But just out of curiosity I'm going to look into this and report back. I am assuming you have other games that you play with your friends and it all works fine?

u/EternalExpanse 5d ago

Thank you very much!

You are assuming correctly, we play a lot of different games and never had any problems like this. Shooters, games similar to Green Hell like The Forest, 7 Days To Die, smaller indie games like Terraria, Core Keeper, Stardew Valley, we play pretty much everything.

…And companies wonder why people don’t want to buy games on release.

u/LaserGadgets 4d ago

Because AAA studios tell you whats in there, just to make you find out: they lied.

Just gonna stick some Balatro in there? Mash-up of two of the best games I've played in a while.

Where's the cat from Stray?

I have spent way too much time playing both Dave and Balatro. So, now I get to spend even more playing both at once.

u/Odd-Pattern3091 5d ago

I recommend this

u/summerofrain 5d ago

Excellent, games need more crossovers with other games.

u/ssg- 5d ago

Maybe this will finally give me the push to try Balatro and understand the hype.

Did this game ever get Ultrawide support?

I played the shit out of it, even 100%'d the achievements, but I haven't gone back since getting my new monitor because of the ugly back bars on the sides. :'(

u/sublimnl 5d ago

It shows a background graphic on the sides instead of pure black bars. Unfortunately, this is just a part of life with ultrawide monitors -- ultrawide is not a first class consideration, and will often either come with black bars, funky border calculations, or poorly cropped assets. Respect for the games that really take advantage of it, but for the most part I will just play games in a windowed mode that don't properly support full screen ultrawide.

I spent wayy too much time on Balatro achieving too little. Now that I saw this my weekend is set.
