Made it to depths 1 and like 12 of those jumping sweaters ambushed me with 1 heart left. Nobody told me they could teleport. This is just getting so annoying it's not even fun anymore. I just want to finish it at this point with little to no regard for how much fun I'm having.
And then I was a golden god, go me.
All aboard the Random crash train!Whoo whoo!!!!

I can't seem to get past mom part 1 as Magdalene, which doesn't make much sense since she's the best character for making deals with the devil, I've beaten her as every character except Isaac and Magdalene [editline]3rd November 2011[/editline] Also brimstone is literally the worst deal to pick and gets you killed due to your shitty fire rate which can't be increased

With any character it's honestly just based on your luck for getting health upgrades. Might as well just go with Isaac.
Running around and spamming arrow keys in the direction of my enemies is amazing. Just survived a Battle Room in Basement 2 losing no health.
Still havent fought Gish even though i unlocked his fight.
For easy health-ups, raid the blood bank machines, if you're lucky, they have a chance to drop blood bags, they increase your HP by one and heal 5 hearts.
Yesterday, I got fucked. That's why: When you use a health pill, you get 1 more heart. When you use another one, you [b]lose[/b] that heart, every health up pill turns into health down pill. After getting another health upgrade, it says that those pills are health up again, but it's a lie, they're still health down. Mind-blown.
I love this game, I've been following Edmund McMillen since he was doin flash games on Newgrounds
[QUOTE=Yukinari;33098987]Still havent fought Gish even though i unlocked his fight.[/QUOTE] He seems pretty rare. The last final boss added in the Halloween update, holy shit. Got completely destroyed.
Why does everyone have such a raging hard on for Cain? He seems kinda useless to me. I much prefer Eve or Maggy.
Using bible at the last boss doesn't work. It actually instakills you.
[QUOTE=WillerinV1.02;33102086]Why does everyone have such a raging hard on for Cain? He seems kinda useless to me. I much prefer Eve or Maggy.[/QUOTE] Better drops and higher base damage. Maggy is bleh for me since an extra heart isn't worth the slow ass speed and low damage. Eve is cool, but her damage is low as well, she has lower health, and the bird along with the half heart curse doesn't seem worth it since you probably won't be that low often and the bird barely ever attacks. HOWEVER, they are all incredibly fun to play as, since I don't want to just pick the "best" character.
I love Eve. The curse is really useful for me too, as I tend to be a little reckless. :v:
[QUOTE=horsedrowner;33102209]I love Eve. The curse is really useful for me too, as I tend to be a little reckless. :v:[/QUOTE] Eve is still Isaac right, just like cain and maggy? if so Isaac has some serious gender issues
[QUOTE=WillerinV1.02;33102226]Eve is still Isaac right, just like cain and maggy? if so Isaac has some serious gender issues[/QUOTE] If your mom is trying to kill you and you have to run around naked in a demented basement [b]CRYING[/b] at demented eldritch monsters while you use horrible items on yourself to get you through the entire ordeal, like eating rotten food, shoving clotheshangars through your head, and making deals with goddamn Satan, you'd be pretty fucked up too. Also holy shit how did I beat this seven times I don't even remember. [editline]3rd November 2011[/editline] Also, it seems Eve doesn't stay unlocked for me. Every time I exit the game and go back in she still needs to be unlocked.
[QUOTE=WillerinV1.02;33102226]Eve is still Isaac right, just like cain and maggy? if so Isaac has some serious gender issues[/QUOTE] I think so. But keep in mind, Maggy is because Isaac's mother made him wear the wig, which I'd assume is because she wanted a daughter and so she could put her in beauty pageants or something and Cain was because he got hit in the eye with a baseball. It's mom's fault not his. Though, I think Eve is due to all this shit causing him to become emo and maybe question his outlook on himself and his gender? Not sure. Speaking of the characters though, Judas is confusing to me. Aren't fezzes related to muslims? And ???, is that Isaac but if he died in the chest?

Well then. Brimstone + Chocolate Milk = no-charge brimstone lasers Satan went down in less than a minute [b]OP AS FUCK[/b]
So all the characters are actually still Isaac? Mind blown. I liked it better when I thought they were all his brothers and sisters though.
[QUOTE=TheCombine;33102717]So all the characters are actually still Isaac? Mind blown. I liked it better when I thought they were all his brothers and sisters though.[/QUOTE] His brother and sister are those floating fetuses you can get.
Apparently TB did a first impressions look at the game in his WTF-a-Thon; the game being shown after a frantic and OH GOD BADGERS playing of Enviro-Bear 2000.
I have an old PC, but it can handle stuff like Far Cry, Doom 3, Quake 4, Half Life Ep2... with no problem, but in Binding of Isaac even in the main menu I experience lag no mater the resolution or detail level I set.
[QUOTE=Zyx;33102849]His brother and sister are those floating fetuses you can get.[/QUOTE] Actually it's all the humanoids in the basement.
[QUOTE=PunchedInFac;33103207]Actually it's all the humanoids in the basement.[/QUOTE] Man, Isaac's mother is such a whore.
I fucking love this game
