Is there any particular reason to start over for Afterbirth (like from a new boss/item/feature standpoint)? Or do people just want to unlock stuff again and start "fresh"?

That's what the list of secrets unlocked are for. So you can see what you haven't done yet in that save file.

For me it's more that the item pool will be a lot smaller so I'll get to play around with a lot more synergies. Unless my maths is way off. (it is, I guarantee it)

Still keeping my main file because I can't be arsed unlocking the LOST again, so I guess when my Afterbirth file is at a similar level I'll revert back.

Although I wont even get to play it till Sunday evening!

Psssshhhh should have requested the day off like I did.

Actually I did it for a wedding rehearsal which ended up getting cancelled anyway. Now is the rush to get literally everything done that I need to do today before this releases.

I unlocked almost all of the achievements bar the last few challenges, a couple of Lost's hard mode achievements and getting through the Chest without getting hit. Even with the stopwatch, I can never seem to do that one.

The rehearsal. Apparently we don't need to practice.

So was the original timer for the release supposed to end now or in an hour?

They said 1pm Eastern but Steam seems to be super arbitrary with unlock times unless you're a AAA game.

Now. I don't know if Steam always has a problem releasing games on time, because the only games I've wanted to play the SECOND they came out were Rebirth and Afterbirth. And they've both been late.

Same, I think.

But wasn't Rebirth only like 30 minutes late? I seem to remember there being a total meltdown but it ending up being not a big deal.

It turns out that Afterbirth was a scam all along. He's already on his way to the Bahamas with your sweet sweet $6.

In an attempt to get back at people for Data mining the method to unlock the lost, Edmund has made it so you have to figure out how to even play Afterbirth

Pretty much every non-AAA game I've preordered on Steam has been late. Basically Valve don't actually give a gently caress about releasing your game when they say they will unless you're rich as poo poo.

I've never really heard of this kind of issue with Rebirth but regular Isaac certainly runs like poo poo on seemingly random computers with no regard for specs.

It was a flash game, that's the only explanation you really need. Flash is garbage.

Rebirth would completely disable my keyboard until I restarted the computer. Could not play the game at all on release until someone discovered a fix to gently caress around with an .ini file. Code bad.

It's also clear that they don't know/care about code optimization since this incredibly simple 2D game is the most processor heavy game I've played in recent years. Didn't they even say that they couldn't port the game to 3ds because the processor couldn't handle it and they had to wait for N3ds? :lol:

Let's not even talk about that poor, poor game.
