For sure Myth is the #1 game I would want to see redone in a modern graphics engine though it was already way ahead of its time in terms of physics etc. I think it's a shame it never caught on to being a genre defining game because I don't really like the resource gathering and base building that all other RTS have. It might be fair to blame Microsoft for turning Bungie into a Halo sequel factory, before then they were still switching genres every couple games in the era of Marathon, Myth and Oni. And even during the development of Halo 1 and 2 they were still working on project "Phoenix" that was to likely be the next generation Myth. Marathon and Myth were totally the start of the games with intentionally cryptic ~Lore~ that internet nerds would overanalyze to death and the ancestor of today's YouTubers making 3 hour video essays about Dark Souls

Like all three modes of Diddy Kong Racing at the same time.

Feel bad for folk who just don't get it I liked the original version and Rebirth, but there are too many items to keep track of now. A lot of them can ruin your build. Yeah, there's a mod that tells you what they do so you don't need a wiki open, but I only want to play this on a handheld (and I don't have a Steam Deck)

Feel bad for folk who just don't get it I think games where "power ups" can ruin your attempt at beating the game not fun at all, and anything that requires an encyclopedia of item pickups is ridiculous. And liking them still makes more sense than liking mobas!!

I'm not sure "this game has too many items" is a valid complaint Most of the folk I see disliking issac it's more the look and design graphically than any gameplay problems

That's not a problem you just look up the item on this handy little webpage: https://platinumgod.co.uk/repentance It's like a nice little game of Where's Wally every time you go to pick up an item!

I love the binding of Isaac...It's a tough game I have many achievements in, but getting through a lost run with zero hits or one hit per room just stresses me the gently caress out I can't even think about doing that. There are always instances of damage that are probably avoidable in theory...but my brain will do stupid things when it's even slightly bored. As well as my weed hosed reaction times...I guess that's my fault.

I dont like Binding of Isaac because theres poo poo everywhere and you play an abused baby living in a basement full of poo poo and that just doesnt really appeal to me.

Bob is of course Ragnar Bloodaxe.At the end of the episode they find out the user wasn't The Executioner, but it was Dot Matrix all along under the hood!

Games should just be better and not require mods/outside tools. See Rimworld, Path of Exile and Binding of Isaac as examples of what not to do.

The number of items in Isaac isn't really a problem if you've been playing it since the flash version launched back in the day, since they've been added pretty gradually. Not that that helps you if that's not the case.

You get a quick blurb when you pick them up, but you can't put them back down, generally. It is a roguelite, one that was made before the genre largely abandoned the item identification mechanic. I do feel like people oversell the problem, since 95%+ of item effects are a) obvious and b) positive.
