it's one of the only games i can think of that gets less fun the more items you unlock
Thomas Cox
The original Flash version or the general series?
Flash version was cool but clearly held back by its engine limitations.
Rebirth and its expansions are a worthwhile expansion but in its current state the game is way too easy. Little to no meaningful challenge because of how easy it is to get a good run going. Repentance should hopefully fix that.

I’ve wasted far to much time on this game.
Godhead was worth it.

Good if you want a fuckton of items and variety in runs. Not good if you're looking for engaging combat.
Joshua Evans
I meant the series as a whole.
I agree that rebirth can be too easy with a good run, but I really don't see that as a huge problem. It's extremely satisfying getting an overpowered run and just melting boss. I don't like the idea of bosses that have the whole scaling armor thing like Hush and Delerium have. What I want is more high risk high reward items so that if you do get a really strong damage item you sacrifice a lot more. I think the solution is either higher costs for Devil rooms or make spirit/black hearts drop less.
I agree the Flash version is harder, but getting Platinum God in it is a fucking nightmare because of those no damage achievements. Some floors in Depths/Necropolis have unavoidable damage unless you have flight and high speed. Even with them some rooms are complete BS

Got my money's worth. Deep enough for a few weekends, but ultimately not something that'll hold your attention forever.
Easton Jones
What the fuck does that even mean?
Matthew Parker
does it have deep lore
Noah Collins
Really great, one of my favorite games. Hoping Repentence is good, can't wait to go down the Antibirth route with Lilith or the Forgotten.
Nathaniel Turner
Waiting on repentance to play again

Original was more fun than rebirth, and while I loved Wrath of the Lamb it introduced something I fucking hate into the game: The Cellar. It's basically not worth playing if you get the cellar instead of the basement, it's not fun and it's way more difficult. It also feels like there's now a more than 50% chance of getting it in BoI:R. The other variants for other levels are great, but genuinely fuck the cellar.

Fuck Angel Rooms

The Hush is the real final boss fuck the other nigger that shit is literal unadulterated RNG.
Carter Ward
Rebirth was great but the DLC fucked it up somehow, I got platinum god in just a few hours and every successful run had me turning into guppy and getting hard endings on a victory lap
Jordan Ward
love this game, played it a fuckton, wish there was something like it but multiplayer, I've been hearing Hades is similar so I'll give it a try
Isaac Cook
I think Vanilla Rebirth or Rebirth + Afterbirth is the best way to go with it. Afterbirth + just adds a lot of mediocre items and dumb enemies that don’t make the game better and dilute the item pools. Afterbirth kind of does this too but Hush is fun to fight and Greed Mode is sort of fun the first few times
Matthew Cooper
Too many shitty filler items.
I spend 50% of my time restarting and rerolling the first item room to get an item worth a shit so I can actually have a run, instead of one of the six hundred thousand on-hit items.
Isaiah Morgan
spotted the shitter.
Ryder Gomez
Was good become garbage with AB+
Nathaniel James
The booster packs saved AB+ shitty DLC.
Luke James
The items are nice and all but the final boss and greedier mode will forever be trash.

Everything in Rebirth is made for anti-fun but I still go back to the game daily

Is new update out yet?
Henry Wright
I was going to double dip for the switch version but there's no fucking way it's worth 40 smackaroos.

Jack Brooks
Has anyone gone back to the Flash version and played Eternal mode? Some of the elite enemies are hilariously overpowered
Cooper Wood
Repentance will probably be delayed again and the void update won't even come out with it but with updates. What is wrong with Steakmund
Oliver Diaz
It's a fun game when you get items that aren't total shit
Christian Cox
>manage to unlock godhead on the lost, beat hardmode delirium
>find out theres another secret character called the forgotten I've yet to unlock, try my hand at unlocking it
>spent like 60 hours on failed runs with the furthest I got being Depths 1 before giving up
I know it gets way easier once you complete the boss rush but I feel bad for constantly dying to moms feet
Jaxon Edwards
It wasn't that hard of an unlock for me, just mostly annoying. Helps to play Samson and just destroy yourself on the way to the first boss and always do the time part and just fish for a really good starting room item
Julian Flores
Have any of you madlads managed to get pic related without cheating?
Brayden Sanders
I did it as Azazel. He's overpowered as is and the flight made dodging the feet a lot easier. I think I got it on my second or third attempt
Jack Martin
the anti dev team is 100% to blame for the delays and they even admit it, edmund has nothing to do with it. they bit off more than they could chew and the DLC has become feature creeped to shit. the devs even said that if they waited to add every last thing they wanted to add before release, they'd need to delay it by an entire extra year. so the focus is to just get it done ASAP, then do post-release updates. which is probably for their own good, considering how obsessive the lead dev is.

No, feels like a waste of time. Instead, I got platinum in antibirth, then just played my 1mil savefile with best mods, like revelations and community remix.
Michael Adams
I'm honestly just not thinking about it until Repentance comes out.
Once that comes out I'll be happy to have comfy threads about it but until then I'll just play something else.
Jacob Watson
>have low damage
>room full of enemies that spawn enemies that spawn enemies that spawn
Very epic game

Not gonna happen but I hope Edmund comes to his senses and makes them less tedious

Why is Brimstone so shit in the original?
