The Binding of Isaac series. GOT A QUESTION? USE THE WIKI: http://bindingofisaacrebirth.gamepedia.co - Games

I hope he did something to nerf The Bloat in rebirth. I just met a Green bloat that ruined a good run.

James Id, the guy that made the trailer, did a new AMA earlier: [url]http://www.reddit.com/r/bindingofisaac/comments/2fnw8e/i_made_the_release_date_video_and_im_bored_now/[/url] I think it's started going again now that Edmund just tweeted it 2 days after it started. Here's the angel model that he used in full detail: [t]http://i.imgur.com/fTrKtNo.png[/t] The angel was made by [url=https://www.youtube.com/user/ScreamerClauz]jimmy screamerclauz[/url] Footage cut from the trailer including the actors taking pills and acting as the enemies in the game. He also mentions that while he got bored of the original BOI after a little while, he doesn't see himself ever putting down the new one. [quote]I had described the shoot as a black mass, and originally was going to include faces and uncensored nudity. I had no responses. Thankfully a really great actress/model/dancer I had worked with previously named Scarlett Storm not only agreed to be in it, but she pretty much recruited the other cast members. I credited them in my video description. They are burlesque performers, alt models and sideshow peeps. Lets see... theres Scarlett Storm, Cutthroat, Smurfasaur, Candy Pants, and Steph Anders I dunno if an uncensored version will come out. I had originally wanted to do uncensored, but considering how many people called this version smut, i dunno if it would be worth releasing uncensored.[/quote]

[/QUOTE] Okay so that thing was CGI. There was something about it's jittery movement in the trailer that really creeped me the hell out. In fact, the angel is probably the most unsettling thing in the trailer in my opinion.

[img]http://i.imgur.com/i3HaRt4.jpg[/img] I get why the Habit and The Dice are getting nerfed because both of them could be pretty absurd (especially together) But I'm really going to miss Dice based playthroughs where you try to get the most ridiculous loadouts possible. RIP Polyphemus-Mutant spider-Max's Head-Nun cat from hell

[img]http://i.imgur.com/6SIvj3C.png?1[/img] Cool, that solves the problem about the cheat seeds. And yeah I figured the isaac/??? fights would get harder since Edmund used to say he wanted to make the games bullet hell fights more extreme back in the day but couldn't due to lag issues or something.

[QUOTE=TheRealRudy;45938771]the most unsettling thing in the trailer in my opinion was the fact that everything was censored.[/QUOTE] I think James Id, the creator, created it originally censored and they had to censor it for steam/sony/whoever. But now he said he feels awkward if he were to post the uncensored version because he feels weird showing the bodies of these people he worked closely with. I'm too lazy to look around but I know he said it either on the AMA on reddit or somewhere else.

I'm so glad ??? and Isaac are getting rebalanced, such random bosses.

What is the angel supposed to represent? What is with it's face?

[QUOTE=Gm10man;45941142]What is the angel supposed to represent? What is with it's face?[/QUOTE] God/angels have no face (as is it said in the bible).

[QUOTE={TFS} Rock Su;45941690]God/angels have no face (as is it said in the bible).[/QUOTE] Does the bible say anything about them being hit with rakes in their faces a couple hundred times?

[QUOTE=BoxinShrimp;45941953]Does the bible say anything about them being hit with rakes in their faces a couple hundred times?[/QUOTE] looks like a brain to me.

[QUOTE={TFS} Rock Su;45941690]God/angels have no face (as is it said in the bible).[/QUOTE] I always thought it was just that if a person ever saw their real faces, their mind wouldn't be able to handle it or something, and that's where the whole "avert your eyes" thing comes from. But I don't know, I could be way off on that.

[QUOTE={TFS} Rock Su;45941690]God/angels have no face (as is it said in the bible).[/QUOTE] So those chubby baby angels are nothing but lies

[QUOTE=Blueplastic;45942929]So those chubby baby angels are nothing but lies[/QUOTE] Every religion is a lie to cover stuff up.

maybe its a weeping angel [editline]10th September 2014[/editline] i had to you know it

There's people on the Steam forums complaining that the game is "only" 33% off. Users sure are entitled these days.

[QUOTE={TFS} Rock Su;45943025]Every religion is a lie to cover stuff up.[/QUOTE] Why else would they say "Be not afraid!" or something similar when they appear before mortals? If I looked like an eldritch abomination and I appeared before a mortal, needing to impart knowledge to them, I'd certainly reassure them that I am not a threat despite having butts for eyes, a mass of tentacles where my mouth would be, and gnashing jaws in place of my tits.

[QUOTE=Doom64hunter;45944559]There's people on the Steam forums complaining that the game is "only" 33% off. Users sure are entitled these days.[/QUOTE] Spoilet brats. Most games on preorder are 10% off. 33% is a steal.

After fucking AGES of playing Isaac, I FINALLY encountered this guy: [img]http://i.imgur.com/cTI8dhb.gif[/img] [img]http://i.imgur.com/ZOPf96C.gif[/img]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Edmund say something about there being a time penalty of some sort in Rebirth at some point? Like some sort of invisible monster would begin stalking you if you spent too much time on a floor similar to spelunky? Or am I just not remembering correctly?

Like some sort of invisible monster would begin stalking you if you spent too much time on a floor similar to spelunky? Or am I just not remembering correctly?[/QUOTE] Yes. And you can see it in that one gameplay video posted awhile back (I think it was the pax one). A stopwatch is shown on the level transition screen, and at one transition, Isaac falls behind it. What exactly it does though is anyone's guess.

It's a reward for going fast. If you beat the time you are presented with some opportunities that aren't present if you take too long. It could be a new floor type, new item, new enemies and bosses, we don't know. Specifics on the timer itself aren't even prevalent, but it'd make sense to be tied to the realtime clock and not a counter that runs on rooms cleared. All we do know is that Ed's expressed desire in encouraging speedrunning as well as thinking that people that assume he'd put Spelunky's ghost in Isaac without changing anything at all are pretty dense.

[QUOTE=NateDude;45946273]After fucking AGES of playing Isaac, I FINALLY encountered this guy: damned ultra pride[/QUOTE] My first encounter with this dude was in second basement and it scared the hell out of me. Too bad I was streaming and forgot to turn on recording for some moments. Anyhow, is it possible that we'll get more endings in the Rebirth?

Sometimes it helps to spend a long time on a floor, messing with slot machines and blood banks and shit like that to try and build up health or items. Rewards for going fast sound fine, but penalties for going slow would suck.

There are not going to be penalties, just bonuses if you're quick So you can decide to milk the arcade for half an hour or get to the golden room then kill the boss and still get something good.

I'd be perfectly fine with that, it doesn't need to be like Risk of Rain with the difficulty clock.

Please don't ask me whats wrong with me because I couldn't tell you, but I got into a conversation with a friend about the possibilities of new endings in rebirth and I came up with the stupidest thing. After beating Sheol with the Polaroid/evil equivalent of polaroid a new trap door spewing fire opens up and Isaac jumps down it. Isaac is now in Super Hell where he must battle through hordes of enemies to reach the center. There instead of fighting the final boss, a cutscene plays where Isaac runs into Meat Boy. They both stare at each other before smiling and giving each other a high five. Cut to the front of Isaacs house where you see Isaac and Meat Boy run out of it, shortly afterwards it explodes behind them as they do various action movie poses for the freeze frame. The credits roll afterwards.
