The poker roguelike. Balatro is a hypnotically satisfying deckbuilder where you play illegal poker hands, discover game-changing jokers, and trigger adrenaline-pumping, outrageous combos.
This game was made by a solo developer; it would be great if people bought it from a legitimate store (not a grey market keyshop) so that they get their share of the sale.
Not sure I understand the line of argument. The dev can distribute the game however they choose. They chose not to use Epic for reasons unknown to us. I'm not sure a PC Gamer alive would claim they prefer Epic over Steam in terms of usability. Gray market resellers do shady shit like credit card fraud, out of region purchases, resell free promo keys in what amounts to literal theft from the dev.
What is shady is selling the same game at different prices in different markets. No sympathy for these devs, they aren't a charity. If I can get a cheaper key from other markets, we shouldn't suffer from price discrimination. The market can be played from both sides. That's not theft, it's the free market.
