Fans posted:I finally beat it by getting the Piggybank and the Coin Operated Earthshaker which just let me clear rooms with ease. I did end up with orbiting tears which were a pain until they got powerful enough that anything in the room died in seconds, mom was a piece of cake. Welcome to the actual game

On the topic of no-win states, I recently encountered a room on the first floor with enemies I was literally unable to hit without using a bomb to clear up an obstruction. I would have been able to hit them with regular tears, but I had Technology. I was lucky to have bombs, because if I hadn't I would have had to reset.

Pixeltendo posted:The four horsemen horses This would make attaining Meat Boy/Bandage Girl somewhat harder, good job.  You know what'd be cool? If all of the items in the game were put into tiers, not with a Special Item-esque mechanic that makes you metagame when picking up any given item, but with a Luck-based mechanic where a higher Luck stat makes you more likely to get better items.

Cryohazard posted:I love curse of the blind because it's a massive middle finger to the old D6 devil deal meta. Hell, it's a massive middle finger to the D6 altogether; I love it. Personally, the only curse I really want to see tweaked is Curse Of The Maze. It'd be way more fun if the chances of a door taking you in the right direction were much lower. I'd also enjoy a curse where rooms simply don't clear, so if you reenter a room you've already been to, it has enemies in it again - but each room can only drop consumables once.

Rocketlex posted:Y'know, speaking of curses, I can think of more curses that would be interesting. You could even theme them after the Sins. More curses is always nice; the sin theme works well. It also reminds me of my idea for an alternate form of Greed, Avarice, which also spawns in shops and has a sprite similar to Greed's but on a noose (as the shopkeeper sometimes is). I also had an idea where, much like Greed is more likely to spawn based on your shop and money-based behavior, the other sins would also change their likelihood based on your behavior. Gluttony becomes more likely to spawn based on your consumption of red hearts, for example, while Sloth becomes more likely to spawn based on how long you're taking on floors.

Ghost Head posted:Does guppy's collar work the same way? Reviving with 1 heart is a pathetically dumb idea for an item unless it's like Lazarus where you revive immediately in the room. I believe you revive with 1/2 heart filled but all of your heart containers.

I seriously feel like "Cursed" needs a couple of sequels. One where you have to go to Satan instead of Mom, and one where you have to go to Satan instead of Mom and don't have the Map, Blue Map, Compass trio to start off.

Do the multi-shot items (20/20, Inner Eye, Mutant Spider) still not synergize with each other?  Internet Kraken posted:Beans! wouldn't be half as bad if your space bar item didn't recharge so slow. You spend so much time just walking around doing nothing. Yeah, it should really be more like the Candle recharge in the original Binding Of Isaac. TBH, I don't really understand why the Battery is even needed for the challenge; Ed said that the Bean would have Candle-like recharge, and the only thing like that in the final game is the goddamn non-damaging Butter Bean. SuccinctAndPunchy posted:The feet also apparently don't deal contact damage, very useful This is also very useful because if YOU have contact damage, you can kill Satan by running into his feet after they stomp.

Kurtofan posted:No, it flips a coin every time you die. Is it a straight-up coin flip? I got it into my head the other day that the Luck stat effected your chances. But anyway, my point was that I thought that your average number of lives would increase drastically if you also had Dead Cat, because you got nine chances to fail the coin flip, but according to the post I responded to, it only starts flipping the coin on your last life.

It's only a stupid solution if you don't want Meat Boy and Bandage Girl to be stupidly hard to get.  Also, maybe I'm wrong, but isn't Meat Boy buffed in Rebirth, so he's more worth it? It'd be hilarious if Horsemen had, like, a 1% chance of dropping Dr. Fetus and Epic Fetus.

I feel like a more "in-the-spirit-of-Edmund's-vision" solution to the "people scumming for Holy Mantle or 9 Lives with The Lost" problem would be to make those items not work with The Lost at all. That or a repeat of the Eden Tokens mechanic. Maybe you need to defeat Mega Satan for a Lost Token? That'd at least give Mega Satan more of a purpose.

I'd figure Sad Bombs+Dr. Fetus would revert to whatever you had before Dr. Fetus, if only for the Mega Satan-oneshotting goodness that would be Sad Bombs+Dr. Fetus+Brimstone.

Unrelated, but ever since classic Isaac, I've always thought the most necessary gameplay change is making the gaps act as instant death for non-flying characters, rather than as walls. Please implement Ed

Crotch Bat posted:That's an awful idea based on how knockback works in this game. Would instantly render many rooms more dangerous than the enemies it contains and toss the balance off the game's axis. IDK, then maybe make it an option on the options menu if it'd really piss that many people off.

dis astranagant posted:Sadly, I'm pretty sure sad bombs only fire normal tears, albeit big ones. Feel free to prove me wrong. There are at least some abnormal tears that work in conjunction with Sad Bombs. Ipecac, for example. Also, if Sad Bombs fire regular tears instead of Brimstone, then what the gently caress is the reasoning on not synching with Dr. Fetus, to let you shoot unlimited Tear-producing bombs?

It just occurred to me that if The Lost got a Holy Mantle/Cursed Skull combo he'd pretty much have a free victory. Unless a Holy Mantle depletion doesn't count as a hit for the purposes of Cursed Skull.

For a balanced devil deal, picking up Dark Bum should give you three empty heart containers, and take a red heart away from you.
