Then you can't miss the cracked key actually I missed unlocking tainted keeper once because I was so strong that I didn't realize that I dashed over a pill until I swapped floors even though I put trinkets in 3 different boss rooms

Zedlic posted:Awesome, good job! Beating Mom for the first time is a great moment. What kind of run was it? Just Isaac because I don't think I had anyone else unlocked except Lazarus. I had several familiars that made the Mom fight relatively easy. The first time I got to Mom I had a half a heart of health remaining and got stomped pretty much as soon as the fight started so that was a little anticlimactic.

I finally beat hush 3 times on new save file, haven't even unlocked negative or polaroid yet. Now to look forward to getting stomped on over and over again by the new content (and by mom's foot when I try to unlock the forgotten).

What does breath of life actually *do* I've picked it up and 'invincibility at a cost.' and it ticks down. I read that if you hold it too long you take damage so 'oh I'll use it to cross spikes' - damage. 'Oh hush you're in trouble now!' - damage Is it bugged???

I just got my 11 year old stepson hooked on Isaac. He had little interest in it, besides watching me play it, until I showed him Four Souls and he immediately wanted to play it eight times in two days. Then he was incredibly interested in playing the game on my Switch. Had him start a new save file and now he's started on that dopamine train of unlocking things as he achieves difficult things. I'm so proud.

ThisIsACoolGuy posted:What does breath of life actually *do* It's been a long time since I used it, but if you did the same thing I did you were probably thinking that you were invincible as you held down the bar. That's not the case - instead, you get the invincibility after draining the bar and quickly letting go of space. If you take too long to let go of space, you take damage - if you time it right, you get a brief burst of invincibility. It's really hard to use against bosses because of that, it's mostly for rooms. (If you're patient enough, you can max out any donation machine or devil beggar with it.)

I guess the item amounts to basically infinite money and free sacrifice rooms if you're patient enough to use it. But drat is it slow.

Cool cool cool. *holds R key* Keep in mind that if you're going for Mother you have two opportunities to enter the mines: in Dross/Downpour 2 and in Caves 2 after that. If you don't have the bombs the first time the door appears you can usually get them on the next floor.

I've only run into keys being an issue in time to hit Downpour 2 a couple of times and I can't remember a run where I didn't have two bombs to do Mines 1 that wasn't my fault burning bombs hunting for a secret room to do a thing instead. It's a resource tax, but especially because you basically run Downpour 2 twice if you need to thanks to the mirror you'd have to get really, really unlucky not to get two bombs by the time you need to.

Sure wish I knew you could go backwards through doors during the Mines chase, because I got stuck when I went through a door and the shadow was directly in front of me in the next room, blocking my path and I hesitated and it took off my last heart. loving hell

Man, gently caress Delirium. I had a solid J+E run which went the alt route to cash in on the double items. I guess he can't change into the alt floor bosses, and I found him at the first spot in the void via a card, so he only had like 5 valid forms to switch to. So he just repeatedly turned into Mom's foot, started the stomp (voice warning), then changed form to spawn directly on my face for unavoidable damage. I can't imagine ever having the patience to beat him with characters like The Lost.

Finally beat Mother as The Lost. Floor one gave me Dead Cat in a curse room so I knew I had a really good shot at it. Continued to get rotten baby, a bunch of tear ups, polyphemus, toxic waste, 20/20 and then sulfer + car battery to seal the deal. Managed to beat Mother on the first try so I didn't even need the Dead Cat  In Mausoleum I had a brain fart and just walked blindly into a spiked rock after clearing the room so Dead Cat definitely got me through it. gently caress those things edit: Word of advice for anyone attempting runs with The Lost: Boss challenge rooms are your friend

I've had it twice now in my runs today and I'm pretty sure I'm done taking the Saturanus planetarium item. Every time I pick it up, it's really powerful and really good... and it makes it completely impossible to see because it's just huge loving bullets orbiting your character. If you have enough fire speed, it's actually miserable to play with just because of how little you can see because of the growing tears orbiting your character.
