Sorry if it's been mentioned, but I can't possibly go through 850 new posts right now.

Anyways, I found out this morning that broken remote + empty bottle = infinite free instant teleports. I've played 3 hours and already no-hit basement, caves, depths and womb due to this.

I feel like a cheater

Here's a tip for everyone having trouble with Azazel: get mutant spider and the book of belial. People talk about one-shotting bosses but this was absolutely ridiculous. The boss rush room was a joke, I actually feel guilty that I completed it so easily. You guys ever get that, where like, you get through a run but you kind of feel like you didn't earn it because the game just absolutely handed it to you? Complicated emotions

My first chest gave me tammy's head with Azazel. Pretty much just a win button in itself, but I also got a ton of damage ups.

-Towards the end of my run I started teleporting randomly whenever I hit the space bar. It didn't seem to matter what item I was holding, I just kept warping around. Was the hell was going on?

You picked up the Broken Remote trinket, makes you teleport whenever you use your spacebar item

One of my first runs of the game I got: Mom's Wig, Sticky Spawning (spider nest that follows you around turning the ground into web and spitting out blue spiders), Enough items to become Guppy, and Guppy's head. I barely had to do anything, because my flies and spiders were wrecking everything for me.

Ludovico's Technique and Mom's Wig are also really insane mixed together, because the spiders just instantly max out as soon as they disappear.

My very first run was basically 100% spider themed. Mom's wig, spider revenge, sticky spawning, radioactive spider... then I died. But I have no doubt in my mind the rest of my drops would have also been spider related.

Alright so I killed mom (and got all the no hit achievements) because I got Ludovico on Azazel on the first floor.

Then there was this massive boss rush thing that I managed to beat but it sapped away enough of my health to be able to get to Mom's heart. I really need to learn which items will kill my run because that broken remote thing is probably the worst trinket in the game. It teleports you every time you use your active item.

I got broken remote with the empty bottle (for storing hearts) and you can literally just teleport as much as you want. Just cheese the hell out of it and teleport until you hit the item rooms, secret rooms, shops, loot the arenas and bounce when enemies spawn, and then just keep waiting till it plops you in the boss room.

That combo was the sole reason I no-hit the first three floors in one run.

What's the donation machine do? Usually it just stops accepting my coins real quick. Does it pay out at some point?
At certain donation levels, I think 20 or 25 for the first level, your shop upgrades and gets better items in the pool. The amount carries over to future runs and you just build off of it. It limits the amount you can donate per run so you can't just get a dollar and power level it.

Goddamn, I cannot stand the Depths music. I understand it's supposed to be spooky and such...only there's a ding in it that sounds exactly like the buttons on my apartment's microwave. I keep hearing it and think someone's messing with the microwave.

Christ, I thought I was losing it last night. My wife is sick and went to bed early and I actually managed to put the kid to sleep at a reasonable hour so I was being very careful about not waking them up.

That little chime sounds just like my phone's morning alarm and I kept pausing the drat game to go check and make sure my alarm wasn't going off. Even knowing it's just the game music I still get anxious when it plays.

The thing holding me off from buying it is the new sprite look looks kind of bad to me. I'll probably pick it up at the first sale, but I just thought it's weird that I like the lovely flash style more.

The pixel look just didn't mesh with me either. It just didn't make sense in my brain after playing the original for so long. I couldn't really tell things apart and it made me play badly. Sounds dumb, but the smoothing filter actually helps out a lot. It makes the game make more sense visually.

e: also i swear it's way easier than the original game too. definitely easier than Wrath of the Lamb

I don't know about that. I got platinum god on WotL and could manage to at least squeak out a Chest victory 9/10 times regardless of the RNG's feelings towards me.

But this game is a different beast entirely. I've only beaten the heart once and died countless times. It's definitely much more involved, if not more difficult.

My game install is glitched to hell because there's no loving way the RNG legitimately gave me lard in the basement 1 item room for thirteen runs in a row.

Holy poo poo.

Real Platinum God, at last. The greatest hurdle was not The Lost, or lovely RNG, or unavoidable damage. Nor was it obtaining a meat boy/bandage girl.

No, the greatest challenge in Real Platinum God was making Steven appear in the basement. In almost 500 runs he never showed up once. I spent over 3 hours today running the basement over and over and over. I was about to give up and he finally appeared.

No, Steven was the only item I'd never seen, and I realized it's because I've never seen Steven the boss outside of the arena

I found out yesterday after using an emperor card that curse of the maze can proc on a teleport item, sending you to a different room than the teleportation target.

Incidentally, curse of the maze gargles balls

Rebirth has spoiled me. I look back at WotL fondly, but when the framerate plummeted due to there being ten baby spiders on the screen, the reality came flooding back.
