Blackjack is total ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
Seriously. The results of my games is mathematically insulting.

It's basically impossible to draw anything but a ten if I have more than 11 points. Why is this minigame even here if it's not possible to win?

Yeah, it's a sad travesty of actual blackjack. I complained about it myself. Just not the dev's focus, though. Might as well just use the console to give yourself casino chips and pretend like you're able to play actual strategy with double-downs, splits, 1.5 or 2.0 blackjack payouts, and actual random cards. Apparently your luck plays into the odds of the cards you get? That's what I've heard but haven't been able to verify. Observer's bias says yeah, though.

don't count on probability.

> there is no removal of cards unlike in a real card came. Game just pull a random card from the pool, no matter the previous cards.
> You're playing against a dedicated worshiper of Elkath. So unless you have yourself very high luck, yes, the game is rigged against you

I dont think luck has any effect on the game. I gave myself 200 luck and i still kept losing blackjack. Im pretty sure the dealer cheats as well...there are too many times where he just pulls a 21 or beats you by just one.
seriously do you all believe that blackjack could be a reliable source of money ?

I'd expect it to at least play like Blackjack.

Why are you here? It costs nothing to not chime in with snark.

In a world where you lay eggs like a parrot, animals are talking and children are 35\40 aged, blackjack is supposed to be "real" ...it's so logic and consequential :-)

If it doesn't play by the rules of blackjack then don't call it blackjack.
I've never lost a single hand, thanks to save-scumming..

I tried this but it just took way too long. The win rate is less than 25% so i had to reload many times and since you can only bet a max of 1000 chips at the start of the game, you need to win multiple times in a row to get a decent amount of chips, which is nearly impossible.

It plays like blackjack cause you have to win according to the blackjack rules.

The fact you can't win at the "statistical rate" that we all know is related to the gods of this world----> Elin ...and yes gods in Elin are not subjected to any boring and standard "statistical rule"

So..find a way to win at blacjack in Elin and NOT in Montecarlo or Las Vegas.

From what I see the only reason you can't win at irl blackjack's rate is that after each round cards are reshuffled.
Not like such rule can't exist in real world? Besides, do you even know how many variations of blackjack are there in real world?
It is unfortunate that luck doesn't affect draws though. I think Elona+ had that.

Go throw plushy putits if its chips you're after. I'm just sitting on a casual 116k chips, no mods or whatsoever.

Just throw it when the outline of the belt (of that char throwing) hits the the frame of the minigame, no counting involved.
