I feel like one of the few people who isn't totally obsessed with this game

the moment-to-moment play is uninteresting (you usually just hard focus a single hand type and ignore everything else), the joker slots are so limited that it feels hard to actually make runs meaningfully different, and the required scores scale up so fast in endless mode that like 95% of jokers are just instantly worthless anyway

You're not alone. I had a friend yesterday show me the game and while it's interesting that they were able to make a roguelike out of poker, you're not wrong in that 99% of the moment to moment gameplay is really just playing a less fun unstructured version of poker against nobody and hoping the randomness gets you the multipliers you need. I can't see myself actually bothering to play the game when there are a million ways to play actual Texas hold'em against real people online without having to spend any money.
