[QUOTE=MightyMax;37129237]I've got almost a day in this game and have never gotten past the depths 1.[/QUOTE] I'm at 300 hours and need to do the chest with everyone apart from Isaac I'm terrible.
I just want Polyphemus and Brimstone again. Twoshotting bosses was fun.
I never got Polyphemus ever. Like, I don't even have it on my items list.
So I've just looked at my Steam games list in detail, and I noticed I have 112 hours in this game. Sheesh. Time flies when you're having fun or so they say, but [I]jesus[/I] that's a lot of hours for a game like this.
[QUOTE=Maruhai;37132255]I never got Polyphemus ever. Like, I don't even have it on my items list.[/QUOTE] Me too. It's really weird. Also, 88 hours and need to beat the game with two more characters.
So from what I can gather, am I the only one who finds Mom's Heart / It Lives an incredibly easy fight? Same with the Isaac / ??? fight.
[QUOTE=Dysune;37133162]So from what I can gather, am I the only one who finds Mom's Heart / It Lives an incredibly easy fight? Same with the Isaac / ??? fight.[/QUOTE] The first and second stage of the Isaac/??? battle is more difficult than the third one to me.
[QUOTE=Dysune;37133162]So from what I can gather, am I the only one who finds Mom's Heart / It Lives an incredibly easy fight? Same with the Isaac / ??? fight.[/QUOTE] It lives is pretty easy usually. I've found if you've had a terribly unlucky run, you probably won't make it that far anyway. If you make it there easily, then the fight will usually be easy. I can't comment on Isaac, I've only just unlocked the Cathedral. Faced him twice, got beaten twice.
The thing is: when you fight both bosses, you rarely have to move at all. With Mom's Heart, you just stay on the left or right of it (except to go kill the eyeballs). With Isaac, you do the same but slightly move up and down to dodge shots. I have a playlist of Isaac runs I did, and in (I think) every run, I've beaten Mom's Heart with no damage and using that tactic.

[IMG]http://puu.sh/PJMU[/IMG] What a great run
[QUOTE=Dysune;37133162]So from what I can gather, am I the only one who finds Mom's Heart / It Lives an incredibly easy fight? Same with the Isaac / ??? fight.[/QUOTE] Mom and it lives are really easy for me. Like, I find Trites more of a threat most of the time.
Find demon judgement on first floor? SURE WHY NOT?! *Pokes him twice, drops sacred tears* Oh god no fucking way *enter next room, tinted rock, bomb it, drops small rock* No. Fucking. Way. This pretty much continued till I got to the Cathedral, beat isaac then explored the entire map, and found a joker card. Inside was Brimstone and Mom's knife. (Mom's knife was 3 soul hearts) I almost like broke my face smiling
Sacred Heart on Basement 1 is like instant gg.
Found Spirit of the Night and The Pact in a Devils Room... Decisions, Decisions.
[QUOTE=Ellis :P;37136852]Found Spirit of the Night and The Pact in a Devils Room... Decisions, Decisions.[/QUOTE] Don't do Spirit if you have Flight or Spectral. And I'm 14 minutes late but welp
Decided to play Judas and the first item I get is Max's severed head. This should be a good run. Now the noose from the secret room. It's gonna be good. [editline]suckmydickjesus[/editline] I got the knife and beat Isaac. Only Isaac because I picked up the tick :suicide:
Brimstone and Polyphemus on Caves pt 1 GG [editline]8th August 2012[/editline] Beat the Chest as Cain with the above combo. Fucking hell yeah.
Whats the point of eve, there's no pros to her even if i go into curse state, its just a gimped judas
[QUOTE=Bumgall;37138995]Whats the point of eve, there's no pros to her even if i go into curse state, its just a gimped judas[/QUOTE] It's challenging. Like playing as Samson or ???.
God, Mom just won't spawn the fucking polaroid. I'm playing as cain and hardly took any damage this run.
-ye olde snip-
I have discovered that I have a deep and irrational hatred for Pooters [editline]8th August 2012[/editline] I'm about to fight Mom's Heart for the first time [img]http://i.imgur.com/hPvcf.png[/img] Guys help I think I'm screwed :c
[QUOTE=_Kilburn;37139424]It's challenging. Like playing as Samson or ???.[/QUOTE] Since when was Samson a challenging character? Samson is the most broken character in the game. He's more OP than Cain.
[QUOTE=Dysune;37143065]Since when was Samson a challenging character? Samson is the most broken character in the game. He's more OP than Cain.[/QUOTE] I'm sorry but holy crap 2007 and only 6 posts? That's some real lurking
Samson is the worst charachter, only rivaled by ??? in terms of how frustrating it is to use. That's a fact.
[QUOTE=Dysune;37143065]Since when was Samson a challenging character? Samson is the most broken character in the game. He's more OP than Cain.[/QUOTE] His Womb unlock is available before you unlock it, he has shit all health and he doesn't have the insane damage to back it up like Judas does. Speaking of which, Judas is so awesome. Can't wait for The Chest so I can play as him again.
i'd play ??? any day over samson or eve
[QUOTE=JurajIsNotPirat;37140793]God, Mom just won't spawn the fucking polaroid. I'm playing as cain and hardly took any damage this run.[/QUOTE] I just checked your Steam achievements for Isaac and you didn't even unlock the Polaroid ...
On the subject of character balance since it's up: [QUOTE][B]The D20[/B]-complete the final chapter with Isaac... [U]6.5%[/U] [B]Abel[/B]-complete the final chapter with Cain... [U]5.9%[/U] [B]The Demon Baby[/B]-complete Sheol with Eve... [U]5.8%[/U] [B]Blood Lust[/B]-kill moms heart with Samson... [U]5.5%[/U] After everyone else's complete Sheol and Cathedral achievements + a ton more... [B]The Sacrificial Knife[/B]-complete the final chapter with Eve... [U]3.4%[/U] [B]The Bloody Penny[/B]-complete the final chapter with Samson... [U]3.3%[/U] [B]Dad's Key[/B]... [U]3.3%[/U] [B]Blood Rights[/B]-Kill Satan with Samson... [U]2.8%[/U][/QUOTE] There are other factors like character preference, when the character was added etc, but [I]still[/I]. [QUOTE=solid_jake;37144841]or the fact that BOI is really shitty with steam achievments[/QUOTE] It doesn't include everyone, but it includes most people. Also, the achievements I mentioned are correctly triggered by the events they're supposed to when they do work.
or the fact that BOI is really shitty with steam achievments
