If you were good you'd know how to make good items appear

is BoI finally dead?
i stopped paying attention to it after edmund started adding a gazillion multiplayer babies that nobody cared about

the mod "reskin" is coming on the 25th

try playing with what you get and toughing it out with your skill or lack there of. You're not afraid of a challenge are you?

gonna try that thank you bro you motivated me to play this game again

try using the items provided to you instead of resetting, i heard it's lots of fun and it requires skill! though, i'm afraid you lack them, don't you?

so they're just adapting mod content to the official game?
that's sad, roguelites are truly a dead genre

Why the fuck are there so many of them?
A majority of the items worth a shit are rewards for not taking damage, especially in the early game when you don't have a real option for Soul Hearts aside from tinted rocks. You should be playing the whole game with the goal of taking as little damage as possible, a one room attack fly that kills shit about as quickly as your tears is about as useful as skipping the treasure room.

>one million percent the game
>literally never step foot into a curse room ever again
Killing 4 spiders or getting one black heart is a waste of my mother fucking time, SKIP this trash eternally

its not a bad mod, it just is getting added to the game
rather an on hit then activate items.
fuck the "patch" that lowered no! trinket drop rate.

>think about playing isaac again after years
>remember I have to do all the retarded challenges to unlock a lot of the fun items/synergies
>don't play isaac

And that's why I avoid any roguelite.

>restarting like a bitch until you got the perfect opener on this game
You never had it.

>My favorite item? Sissy Longlegs.

>its a no keys for 3 floors episode

>downloads a full save file and installs racing+

Spelunky too, the item pool isn't that big so you most likely will find something good, and at least in HD you can always get the good 'ol reliable shotgun from cuckeeper(fuck him)

it wasnt like this before all the shitty DLCS.
Wrath of the lamb was peak isaac.

can you switch to the old graphics in Spelunky HD?
i'd play it for the new content but the artstyle is so ugly

just play spelunky 2

I don't think you can, but to be honest I think Spelunky HD's visualsare way better than most indies that launch these days, also really like how some particle effects are done

>implying I'm going to fall for Edmund's shitty half soul heart unlock
Good one

There's supposed to be some huge game sized DLC coming out before the end of the year, but I don't know much else about it.

Why hasn't anyone made a game like this without the fucking shit and piss baby aesthetic? It would probably be a massive hit.

If you have Afterbirth+, you can get mods that auto-restart for you until you start next to an Item Room, or just straight up teleport to the Item Room.

I believe there is a mod that guarante a good starting item from a select pool of good items that can appear in a item room

This is fine if you're just playing Rebirth, but the DLCs add bullshit bullet sponge enemies that take too long to kill if you don't have high enough stats.
If I get stuck in a giant room with 5 different bullet sponge enemies and I can't even kill one within the first minute I just reset.

If it wasn't for the bullet sponge marathon design, sure, but... have fun fighting bullet sponges for hours, scraping by with bombs, making wise decisions, using every little thing you have, and still eventually dying.

did you miss that time eight years ago when every indieshit was a binding of isaac ripoff?

One of my user steam friends once told me to stop playing BoI because it's gross. I unfriended him.

>NL still makes Isaac videos
jesus christ why

>played a run last night as Magdeline
>Lil Haunt
>Daddy Longlegs
>Ludovico Technique
One of the most fun runs I've had in this game recently.

Money. Money he needs to support his wife and kid. If you could sustain yourself by playing Isaac daily and talking about whatever, wouldnt you?

I think it's an acquired taste, the cutesy chibi artstyle downplays the grossout significantly, if the game looked more like this then there'd be a valid reason to drop it.

You missed the opportunity to say Little C.H.A.D.

This, fuck the bloat, fuck ragman that forces you to bomb him.
Fuck FatBats and Fuck Stonys.
Fuck the multitude of enemies that hide and force you to wait for them to do a certain animation that they always have no consistancy in doing.

They got the antibirth modders onto their development team to make it and a bunch of other ideas they had as a official expansion. It launches just before newyears.
Then after that they are doing small booster pack or two that includes a rework of Void.

Is it really that big of a deal. Poop and dead fetus babies sound disgusting normally, but the cartoony style of the game keeps it from being unbearable.

>Is bad
>Restarts a lot
Lol.
I used to do that, especially in the last few days leading up to 1 million %. Then I got over it and just started enjoying it again.

>Fuck the multitude of enemies that hide and force you to wait for them to do a certain animation that they always have no consistancy in doing.
I hate this smug ass looking nigger like you wouldn't believe. He just sits there, mocking me. He knows that my fun and my run has come to a screeching halt because I have to wait on him to decide to pop up out of the ground.
Look at his fucking face. He gets even more smug if an explosion happens next to him.

FUCK YOU YOU FUCKING NIGGER

It's ok. People are different.

Can't enjoy that steak too fast anons! ;^)

You should be able to choose your starting item.

Attached: 1583047013519.png (278x273, 29.3K)

Those are easy to handle. Now add legs to them, have 2 of them in a room with pits and spikes with no flying and you are bound to have bad time.

you don't want a GOOD item, but you do want a usable item.

if you see something like the fucking turd then restart.

Only if that choice is limited to a dozen different random items for every run.
Being able to pick ANY item from the start is too OP.

I'm surprised Fat Bats don't get more hate here, they're not dangerous but 50HP in the fucking caves, plus their tendency to dodge shots, makes them arguably the biggest time wasters among any enemy

Those are fine because they actually have consistancy to them.
They ALWAYS trigger when you move towards them. If they dont you just move back and forward.
Their walking versions on the other hand?? F u c k them.

BoI isn't even the worst example because you can easily beat the first floor and potentially get good items relatively quickly.
Gungeon is a chore to play unless you get a good weapon from the beginning.
