I've been playing a lot of the original Binding of Isaac for a few months now, i have 72 of the 99 cheevos unlocked.
I just want to say that I heard about Rebirth getting a new expansion and im super hyped for it. I've only played a little bit of Rebirth on New3ds and really enjoyed what I tried of it, I really like Rebirth's soundtrack. Im going to get the complete bundle on pc when Repentence comes out. I will have so much new content to enjoy!
In the meantime, im going to keep working on 100%ing the original game. This is such a wonderful time to have gotten into Isaac :)
The original flash game has its charm, but there is no way I'm getting back o it after Rebirth. Even after the original got an update. Rebirth is just a superior product, even with the shitty DLC.
Daniel Long
Multiple people have told me this, but im still relatively unspoiled. I do know that Rebirth is harder. I was surprised that Mom's heart is a big bullet hell in Rebirth, whereas it's a much more tame fight in the original.
David Evans
Some things are easier in rebirth. For example famine charges at much lower speed. Also after playing a bit of OG and switching to Rebirth, it feels like the rooms are a lot less cramed.
Thomas Baker
Not that much harder.
Lincoln Sullivan
Honestly just play the remake it’s a strict upgrade in every way. It’s also a super cosy game on switch
Noah Robinson
It would be better to get into Rebirth one expansion at a time, rather than all at once. The amount of content with all the expansions will be completely overwhelming and you'll be needing the wiki forever. So far there hasn't been any sort of discounted bundle for the game expansions so there's no reason to not just get the base Rebirth on its own and start playing.
Ian Mitchell
Not to mention Afberbirth+ made the game worse.
Evan Walker
Not to mention Afberbirth made the game worse.

should i get the original isaac with the dlc now or wait for base game rebirth to go on sale if i can only afford one?
Luis Smith
TBoI Rebirth is just a straight upgrade from flash Isaac. Just buy it for the 15$, it's worth the money.
James Anderson
It's not even about being filtered, it was just poorly made and very rushed. The whole idea of the purple portal enemy was because they didn't want to make rooms with all these new enemies, so they instead made them spawn randomly from the portals which didn't work out well. Remember when on release the portals didn't ever stop spawning until you killed them which made low firerate runs basically game over? Remember how delirium was literally a static image on release?
Owen Mitchell
Rebirth. It's everything the original is and more. Only reason why ive been playing the original is because i bought the game YEARS ago, only ever amassed a few hours of gameplay, and i've been getting my money's worth on it. I got like 90 hours on it right now.
Nathaniel Perry
alright, the thing is with all these dlcs i will feel like i only have a fraction of the game and i can't 100% the chievos without those, right?
Matthew Adams
The DLC only add extra content. You can get them after you have familiarized yourself with the base game. In fact I thing this is how you should proceed because it is how everyone played it back in the day.
Jacob Adams
Fuck nerfing items in a singleplayer mode. Fuck Delirium and every boss whose health scales with your damage. Fuck greedier mode. Fuck The Keeper and The Lost. And most importantly, FUCK Edmund and his steak.
fuck you dark bum fuck you and your fucking spiders
Christopher Wilson
Did you know that originally Dark Bum could not spawn spiders of any kind? Only soul hearts. You have Edmund to thank for that.
Jordan Nguyen
What if Repentence fixes the problems that you guys have with Afterbirth(+)?
Wyatt Baker
Then it will be a 9.5/10 game instead of a heavely flawed 7/10 game.

>Remember how delirium was literally a static image on release? I remember you could kill him with "Plan C", but then they added a long death animation
Easton Moore
Guys, say goodbye to blank card plus runes on repentance
William Garcia
>I've been playing a lot of the original Binding of Isaac for a few months now Yoo I have been doing the same, I'm at 94/99. Fuck hard mode, some eternal enemies will haunt me forever in my dreams
Camden Nguyen
And say hello to the blank rune. More shit to the pool.
Landon Wood
Wow, nice. Im about ready to start doing hard mode stuff. I just need to beat Isaax with ???, The Chest with a few more characters, then beat the game with each character on Hard.
Still a ways to go, but i beat all the challenges and beaten Satan and Isaac with about everybody
Ryan Harris
After a while The keeper and the lost are the only good characters in Isaac. But I agree with you on everything else. Greedier mode was fucking stupid and no one wanted it. Delirium and hush or whatever that blue boil boss was were fucking stupid. No skill fighting them because by the time you're there its because you already got good enough items to carry you to the end. In fact after a while there is no skill to the game at all. Its all a dice roll on whether you get relevant, helpful items or a bunch of shitty junk items that bloat the game. 100%ing Rebirth has been a massive waste of my time and there's no way I would've committed to it if I hadn't already 100%ed original Isaac in 2013 or whatever. I hope steak dev never releases the new DLC so I dont have to reclaim my rightfully earned 100% like he made me do when he added in the hard made for original isaac. I dont want your next bloated dlc that's going to fuck up the game even more.
Brayden Rogers
Yeah
Isaiah Garcia
Welp
Isaac Kelly
Greed mode is so fucking bad. What were they thinking?
