Walrus Pete posted:One change I hope to see in Rebirth is making the horseman bosses less common. The boss fights in BoI are awesome, and it's a real bummer that a subset of them that show up a lot are just (usually minor) variations on the same fight. Knowing what drop you're going to get before the fight even starts is pretty lame, too. I'd be cool with that if cubes of meat came from somewhere else. The horsemen are more miniboss-y anyway.

Jedit posted:People keep saying this, but for me Azazel is literally unplayable. His attack fails to fire or does a single tiny blip better than 75% of the time. A difference from the flash version is that you can't immediately start charging once you're actively firing. Doing so truncates the burst, so you've got to let it run its course before starting to charge the next shot if you want full damage. This gave me problems for a bit as well, because it's completely different to how Brim was handled before.

Ghost Head posted:Whoever made the challenges forgot the crucial ingredient: fun. I don't mind hard, hard is good, but there is nothing fun whatsoever spending minutes whittling tiny enemies down with farts or orbiting flies. I've only tried a handful of challenges so maybe I just picked the wrong ones, but they've all involved some lovely low damage gimmick. It's dumb. The "no tears" challenge where you start with 99 bombs is pretty easy with a little luck. Bomb your way out of rooms that'll take you more than one bomb to clear, don't take any risks or explore - it's not too hard to reach Mom with enough bombs in stock to seal the deal.

Xeras posted:A no tears character could be fun but currently Rebirth gives items that primarily affect your tears. Sounds like Azazel again with lots of item room and devil deal items that are worthless to you. So she starts with a follower that's Mongo Baby but copies the player's tears instead of another follower? It'll have to be something.

Color Printer posted:The negative is a really good pun (sort of) because what else could be used as a dark (or say, bad, or negative) version of a photograph? Go through the dark room, develop the polaroid, next level is the cathedral but worse, followed by the womb but worse, all the way back up to the cellar and then the first floor of the house, followed by an escape to the outside world where you have to face the for real true final boss in the bus terminal before freeing yourself for good which deletes your save game ala Nier but without any warning prompts.

Air is lava! posted:Why did Edmund think that anyone would ever want that? Could synergize well with existing/new items. Like, imagine a Cylon version of tech 2 that sweeps left to right and back. Wizard it up and maybe you get two beams that sweep a 270 degree arc and cross in front of you for double damage or something, who knows.

TheModernAmerican posted:That dunce cap item seems really good? One angle is your normal DPS, so you just have to get used to firing at a 45 degree angle, and every once in a while you get a bonus hit for free. Yeah, in the vid it's clear- both tears fire simultaneously, so it's actually a solid item. Edit: Also Athame is a speed runner's dream. Once you're good enough to view your health pool as a resource instead of a safety buffer it's the equivalent of a 1/room damage item that you can use at will for the cost of half a heart. It also looked like it spit out sin hearts on hit once in a while, which is just stupid good. Cephalocidal fucked around with this message at 15:40 on Aug 29, 2015 |

Power of Pecota posted:Somehow I hosed up like 3 straight Blue Bomber challenge attempts (one by using a D6 room and losing Suicide Bomber) but I completed Onan's Streak the first time through. Flat Worm makes it pretty forgiving hitbox-wise. Sometimes the game just wants you to win. First attempt at BB the game gave me Judas' Shadow in the B2 devil room. Totally counted it, too.

BillmasterCozb posted:Maybe having narrow boss rooms is just a bad idea and should be scrapped Most bosses get much easier in a narrow room if you've got decent damage because they can't wander out of your field of fire. It's definitely a kick in the dickeye on B1 though, no matter who shows up.

Yinlock posted:How do you guys even get past the first floor on Speed? I get owned basically the second a jumping spider shows up. I feel like such a dick for beating Speed on the first try, I didn't even figure out what the gimmick was until Depths 2 when I noticed the damage occurring. (Because I got the Holy Mantle on B1)

I've beaten the Cathedral twice now for Brains!. The first time I hadn't picked up the polaroid for some reason and the game just ended. The second time the game crashed as soon as the chest was loaded. I'm going to poo poo in an envelope and mail it to Ed. gently caress him, gently caress his brains, gently caress everything.

Finally beat Brains! with a floor 1 dark bum+bag face+i've seen everything and a floor 2 krampus head. Having effectively unlimited resources by Caves 2 certainly makes things more manageable.

Keeper runs are so boring. Roll basement 1 until you bomb a swallowed penny out of a pot, then don't gently caress up twice in a row.

HenryEx posted:"Keeper runs are so boring" Oh, I don't grind for it. I just almost never make it past depths without it. Exception was my first clear through the cathedral/chest, pyro/bob's brain/sad bombs/other poo poo that goes boom, but that's victory for anything other than the lost so I'm not really impressed with myself for it.

Vasler posted:Well I unlocked the Keeper and holy poo poo gently caress this guy. Seven runs so far and I can't even get past the 3rd floor. I have all the post its unlocked for every other character. How do you guys actually get anywhere with this poo poo character? Hug poo poo. Seriously get close enough that all three tears hit your target, and if you're not feeling confident leave money lying around to pick up later. ...Or bomb a swallowed penny out of a pot on b1 and don't ever get hit twice in a row.

Dr. Fetus posted:So who wants to guess on how the new character is gonna be even worse than the Keeper? John the Baptist. Start with Guillotine and severe knockback susceptibility that knocks your torso away and leaves your head floating where you got hit. You have to regain your head before leaving the room. John starts with low speed and low health. You cannot fly while headless. You die immediately if hit while flying over impassable terrain. Both the head and body are susceptible to damage at all times.
