This is why FYAD can't have nice things.


Does it change anything besides the graphics? 2033 was already a decent-looking game. There were basically only two parts I didn't like:

1) Hoarded military-grade ammo the whole time only for the game to end before I used it all
2) The acid trip minecart ride felt like a cliched rip from Stalker.

It adds the spartan mode from Last Light so you can play it a bit more like a shooter, there's a couple of dialogue/morality system changes and the hud etc is more like Last Light's. I believe theu revamped the ending level too but I'm yet to get that far. The lighting is, to me, improved in places and it sounds great, but bear in mind I played the 2033 version years ago on 360 and I'm playing this on my PC set to full wow. The acid trip bit was ok, though not as good as similar moments in STALKER, but I thought the 'ghosts' chapter was cool, i turned away from a light source, could see shadows of a bunch of people on the ground but when I turned back there was nothing there. Lots of nice incidental touches like that.

A guy who owns what was once one of the biggest media sites on the internet and has tons of internet connections somehow gets way more exposure and positive press than usual? I'm sure it's totally a coincidence man.

That's really dumb. Why would you continue doing something you don't enjoy? I'll just continue playing good games on the Wii U. You can make a youtube vid of you playing a bad game if you want though.

Hm. The twirl around shooter bit sounds kind of fun actually but I can't say I really want to play a poop rape abortion game. I guess it's good I didn't shell out :tenbux: for it on the sale

It's a cool little rogue like shooter that has dozen upon dozens of powerups that often combine in cool fun ways. There's alot of challenging stuff to do and the more you play the game the more poo poo it throws at you. It's one of those games where you never really have the same run twice and things can suddenly happen that change everything for better or for worse. It's a game that drives you forward just because your curious to see what the game will throw at you this time. It's a cool game. People can not like it I suppose but I find that there's alot there.

Id rather just play smash TV or maximum carnage again to be honest.

I should clarify that I don't feel it's awful just that it is boring.

It's a fun game and while it's technically a twin stick shooter it doesn't play a drat thing like the ones that are out there.

I'm not gonna guarantee your gonna like it but it does get more intense as you play. The lower floors can be brutal and once you unlock "everything is terrible" it get pretty hard. Then there's playing with the hidden characters to add even more challenge.

It's a pretty good game despite the terrible theme and graphics, it would be perfect if it was in space instead. Thanks for tuning in, bye.

the original game was made in flash. It was gonna start out as this small thing and by the time they wanted to make it more full, it was too late to really go back without throwing away quite a bit of work. It still was a game that ran terribly and there's no real excuse for that, but they at least had a reason.

Binding of Isaac is a really good roguelike game but it has a really divisive aesthetic. If it weren't for the excessive gore and toilet humor that makes up everything in it, I would recommend it more but I know it's not for everyone solely because of how it looks.

Which is a shame because there's a ton of content in it and it's mostly all good.

Solid game, terrible aesthetic basically.
