I’m happy to lobby for the balatro dev once he posts on a federated media (real fed, not bluesky).

Personally, I don’t care if balatro is popular here, the pegi 18 rating will impact sales 0%. Also, FC24s gambling should be banned EU wide or the rating of the game should be upped to 18+. Better yet, we should use this Balatro slip up from PEGI to get FC24s rating to be revised to 18+

I don’t doubt that some weird ultra religious family will ban Balatro in their house because of that.
