[QUOTE=01271;49134173]ugh, whatever. I just cheated with the dollar and donation machine on floor 1. I saw how often it jammed and I'm not interested in playing that many times to unlock the keeper. :toot:[/QUOTE] I did the same thing and seeing how by the end I was donating an average of 6 pennies per run I'm glad I farmed the Keeper using mods. An idea I thought of is the opposite of the current system. Starting out you have a base 24% chance of a penny jamming the machine for every character. The difference is though is that beating Greed with each character reduces the odds of jamming the machine by 2% permanently, where beating it with every character makes it impossible to jam. It encourages using multiple characters and the farming over time gets easier rather than harder [editline]ppkkkkkij[/editline] Also to improve Keeper, I'd just make it so Keeper cannot gain nor lose his coin health capacity, always keeping it at 2 coins. that and make Satan deals cost 15 and 25 coins instead of his coin hearts.

Also [sp]rib of greed[/sp] and [sp]deep pockets[/sp] are the only two things even remotely worthwhile in his unlocks, wow. [editline]t[/editline] Don't beat the boss rush with him. Trust me, you will fucking regret it.

[QUOTE=Everything;49134392]Don't beat the boss rush with him. Trust me, you will fucking regret it.[/QUOTE] I'm under the impression that Sticky Nickles is a separate check from rolling to [i]be[/i] a nickle in the first place. Coin spawn Determine if it's a valuable coin. If so, determine whether it's a nickle or dime. If not, determine if it's a special coin. if so, determine whether it's a lucky penny or sticky nickle. If not, it's just a penny. Going down such a hierarchy would mean that a sticky nickle is a direct replacement to a coin that would normally be a penny. It's a tough thing to check unless you have a save file that hasn't unlocked Sticky Nickles to compare it to. Daily runs use a 100% file, so on your next daily run, jot down any location that you find a sticky nickle in as well as the seed, replay the seed and see if the coin is either a penny or a nickle. If it's normally a penny, the SN is an upgrade (albeit an annoying one), if it's normally a nickle, then fuck Nicalis that's retarded.

I appreciate them trying to add more variety to coin drops, but the Sticky Nickel really is garbage. Have like a torn note item that only turns into coins when you collect two of them or a nugget item that only turns into coins when you go into a shop or even just a 1+1 nickel drop. Just something that isn't entirely detrimental to a character supposedly designed around coins.

I'd still call it a downgrade even if it replaced pennies. Rather than getting a guaranteed free resource, you're getting an optional paid one (costs a bomb to obtain), meaning on runs where you have no bombs, you're less likely to acquire currency which could help you get important items like humbling bundle, making those runs worse as a result. It's hard enough to get money early into a run, this would only exacerbate the problem.

remember when unlocks meant something you beat it lives with ??? and oh shit, strongest item in the game you beat satan with isaac, mom's knife even the worse unlocks were still pretty cool, like guardian angel, robo-baby and such what do you get for unlocking things now? either something that you already used (lilith unlocks her familiar and active to use for other characters) or a big fat cock in your mouth

I think it'd be cool if like how the Lost gets Devil Deals for free, Keeper gets shop items free of charge.

I just had a run where samson's chains killed me. When you enter a room, the ball spawns kinda off-center of you, so when I was going between rooms on half a heart, the ball spawned inside a bomb rock and killed me before the transition even finished. I only know this is what happened because I used the seed, skipped the chains and went back to where I died.

Keeper's gameplay design overall feels extremely rushed, more so than vanilla Lost.

What do Sticky Nickles even [I]do?[/I]

[QUOTE=NateDude;49134975]What do Sticky Nickles even [I]do?[/I][/QUOTE] They're nickels that require a bomb to be picked up.

Also he needs head of the keeper, that's it I think. [QUOTE=NateDude;49134975]What do Sticky Nickles even [I]do?[/I][/QUOTE] you know when you walked over a coin and couldn't pick it up.

Could you possibly farm life for the Keeper by getting hit by those bouncy Greed heads? I don't know shit about this new character yet and probably never will unless I cheat 999 coins into Greed mode cause I really just don't feel up to doing it legit [QUOTE=TectoImprov;49135027]They're nickels that require a bomb to be picked up.[/QUOTE] Should be dimes instead since bombs cost a nickel

[QUOTE=TectoImprov;49135027]They're nickels that require a bomb to be picked up.[/QUOTE] seriously then what's the point bombs cost 5 cents in the shop anyway so aside from the fact that you're making a trade it's not that much of a gain why did I even bother beating boss rush with the keeper, jesus.

[QUOTE=NateDude;49134975]What do Sticky Nickles even [I]do?[/I][/QUOTE] Spawns a nickel, when you try to pick it up, it spins over and becomes stuck to the ground. You have to blow it up to be able to pick it up. It's bullshit and literally just a downgrade. Here's how you fix sticky nickels: [b]Remove them.[/b] However, knowing Nicalis, here's how to make them [i]Less shit[/i]: Make them a rare occurrence that has a small chance to randomly replace a penny drop, and make them drop two nickels when blown up, this way it may be situationally worthwhile to spend a valuable resource (a bomb) to blow up money you should be able to pick up anyways.

Also oh my fucking god, gaining an empty red heart (from a pill or something that doesn't fill the container it gives you) completely ruining your devil deal chances has to be a bug, right? It HAS to be. Jesus christ is it infuriating. Do the whole floor perfectly, get a couple health up pills, and then suddenly nope, no devil deal for you.

Uhh... why is my keeper invisible? I have no mods installed and I verified my game...

I think the dlc would've been so much better without the keeper. It's like a turd cherry on the otherwise all-right cake. The lost is easier than the keeper too now what a joke.

it just needs head of the keeper, maybe damage reduction, because you can get half a penny, that's it.

also the unlock for beating the Hush as the keeper is a huge joke, they seriously couldn't add any more good items as a reward? the only item the keeper can actually unlock is a boring shop item while the rest of his unlocks are babies, trinkets, upgrades for [I]himself [/I]and fucking sticky nickles. even just ONE phenomenally good unlock for the keeper would make him worthwhile to play as but he's really not

??? and Lost were added as challenge characters Judging from his absurd unlock conditions, laughable milestone unlocks and abysmal stats and chances of success, I'm thinking more and more that Keeper is a joke character.

I'm kind of disapointed there are no actual "new" enemies. that's like, the core game

Whatever happened to the chess themed floors and enemies? Were those originally going to be in afterbirth, or just a mod? I swear I remember ed addressing them in one of his posts

[QUOTE=Waffle Lord;49136095]Whatever happened to the chess themed floors and enemies? Were those originally going to be in afterbirth, or just a mod? I swear I remember ed addressing them in one of his posts[/QUOTE] the chess enemies were cathedral enemies designed by that reddit user notyoursagitarius before she got hired by nicalis. She said they wouldn't use any of her previous work for whatever reason, no clue why Tyrone posted that pic of one that one time tho but they were never mentioned in an Edmund blog afaik

I'd still love to see the alternate Cathedral/Sheol/Chest floors introduced in a mod.

Basically NYS would need to fill out a written agreement with Nicalis to transfer copyright rights to them. Considering that she's also in the Philippines, that poses another hurdle because it turns international. It's easier to start anew with the work-for-hire that she was contracted for.
