I get the PEGI18 now. I get it.
I finally understand why this game is rated PEGI 18. It encourages utterly reckless gambling-like spending and a loss of control over one’s life. I bought the game for PlayStation, liked it so much that I also bought a PS Portal so I could play it even more and everywhere. The Portal required a better wireless network, so I bought four Deco X20 routers. Now, all my reasonable working hours are spent on Balatro, and I haven’t slept more than a few hours a night in weeks. I'm already down like 500$. Fifteen minutes ago, I finally unlocked Completionist, and feeling inspired, I came here to post this. Hope to 100% this before the upcoming update.
