[QUOTE=Oicani Gonzales;51620103]Why is the expansion that bad? All criticism appears to be extremely negative. I tried reading the last 5 or so pages but I still don't really get it. I'm downloading it right now, what's so bad about it?[/QUOTE] Treasure Rooms may not contain anything but poop, a trinket and a neutral fly If you hit R too many times you unlock half spirit hearts The final boss room is nothing but reskins The new bosses are reskins of others and don't bring anything new to the table The modding tools are absolute dogshite that makes the likes of AAA devs that do it look even more competent.

Well the most I'm hoping for right now is for mods to gut all the dumb bullshit and keep the fun stuff. Void is really fun and the challenges are pretty cool. That is if modders can even figure out the documentation. [QUOTE=Judas;51620145]"big horn" is a completely new boss[/QUOTE] The Sister Vis (I think is the name?) is also new.

Not to mention the final ending [sp] doesn't tell us anything new and doesn't give us any closure whatsoever. The entire ending is just isaac flashing through how shit is life is after his dad left (Something that the other endings told us already without blatantly throwing it in our faces) and it shows mom finding Isaac's skeleton in the chest just like the hush ending, only now it ends with Isaac back in what I can only assume is purgatory and he just walks off into the distance.[/sp] I knew this expansion was going to be complete shite and yet I STILL find myself getting mad at it.

The new ending is showing that [sp]Mom did nothing wrong and wasn't actually going to do anything wrong.[/sp] Like the DLC is a shitshow but I thought it was obvious. [sp]Isaac's dad left him, Isaac started blaming his mom for everything and the drawings on the wall showed his thoughts getting darker and darker until he killed himself in the chest. The new final boss is him going through all the bosses he made up in his head as he dies.[/sp]
Honestly if there's no reason other than them not liking AB+ as for them not updating Antibirth that seems a bit unprofessional could just be me though
[QUOTE=Sift;51620221]-snip-[/QUOTE] Can you spoiler that dude...I mean it might be done before but it's still an ending.

[media]https://twitter.com/Svinnik13/status/816482799750443008[/media] sent edmund a tweet, doesnt do anything but hopefully he'll see it
I thought it would be mediocre, I wasn't expecting it to be so [i]mean[/i] That half soul heart shit is pure contempt for thier fellow men
[QUOTE=Dookas;51620224]Honestly if there's no reason other than them not liking AB+ as for them not updating Antibirth that seems a bit unprofessional could just be me though[/QUOTE] They have all the rights to so whatever they want with it. at the end of the day it's just a mod made by fans in their free time.
[QUOTE=kariko;51620228]Can you spoiler that dude...I mean it might be done before but it's still an ending.[/QUOTE] Being genuine here, I didn't think anyone actually cared given the fact it's The Binding of Isaac, I did edit it though.
[QUOTE=HappyHead;51620240]They have all the rights to so whatever they want with it. at the end of the day it's just a mod made by fans in their free time.[/QUOTE] Im not saying they have no right Im just saying it's a bit lame if they have no reasons other than them just not liking it
[QUOTE=Sift;51620242]Being genuine here, I didn't think anyone actually cared given the fact it's The Binding of Isaac, I did edit it though.[/QUOTE] Well it's okay, sorry, I just felt maybe some people didn't want to see.
refunded ab+ and donated the money that i got back to the antibirth devs ed used to be one of my favorite developers and it's really disappointing to see what he's been doing lately. i'm going to be incredibly hesitant to buy anything else he puts out in the future.
apparently it might be mostly nicalis's fault, seems like edmund is really busy with his baby
I was wondering what all the excitement was about, and from what I gather, Afterbirth+ is just an inadvertent Antibirth advertisement :v:

Just got in from work, totally expected this mess when I saw how desperate Ed was to include Anti with the expansion. But even NL is annoyed, goddamn.

Honestly this is way more of a Nicalis issue than Edmund.
I get that they might of released a disappointing and unbalanced DLC, but all this "fuck this edmund scum" stuff is getting a lil weird and creepy imo
[QUOTE=sirdownloadsalot;51620346]I get that they might of released a disappointing and unbalanced DLC, but all this "fuck this edmund scum" stuff is getting a lil weird and creepy imo[/QUOTE] Yeah, it can be a bit extreme, but I feel like his social media presence has become more and more antagonistic to his fanbase over the years, which is frustrating. Especially considering that his work appears to be more and more antagonistic to the player as well, and not in an enjoyable way.
[QUOTE=sirdownloadsalot;51620346]I get that they might of released a disappointing and unbalanced DLC, but all this "fuck this edmund scum" stuff is getting a lil weird and creepy imo[/QUOTE] how is it creepy? we're all just disappointed in the shitty dlc, and in the people who used to make good content that let it happen
[QUOTE=sirdownloadsalot;51620346]I get that they might of released a disappointing and unbalanced DLC, but all this "fuck this edmund scum" stuff is getting a lil weird and creepy imo[/QUOTE] i don't think many people think edmund is literally scum i just think people are sick of him acting like a moron on social media and putting out paid content that is extremely lazy and just makes the game less fun, especially when the base game is so good and has so much potential (as demonstrated by antibirth)
Bruh what if we made it so some regular chests are actually spike chests that do damage upon opening and you can't tell until you open it. I paid 6.67 to get fucked like a bitch
Do they replace soul hearts only? If they replace red it might not be so bad.
