So, back in vanilla (since I'm on 3DS which hasn't gotten afterbirth yet), I just got the weirdest starting items as eden. How to jump, the polaroid, and the broken remote. I was able to just teleport around without completing any rooms until I ended up where I wanted to be, beating the entire run in maybe fifteen minutes. Unfortunately I hit the I AM ERROR room in womb 2 and couldn't go down to sheol to complete the last post-it task I have left (dark room with eden), but that was still a lot of fun. Definitely one of the stranger experiences I've had with this game, felt like the exploration glitch from link's awakening.

If the advertising had been like "50 new items (and follow the super-secret clues for the chance at even more!)" that'd be ok i guess. Instead I was told I'd be buying 120, and I was given half of that and told I either have to work or wait on events outside the game to get the rest of them. Like, it's no huge injustice to me or anything but I have no sympathy if Ed's little ARG was shattered when he roped people into it deceptively
There's also probably an area after the [sp]Blue Womb[/sp] that we haven't seen yet, since the only way to get the newest ending is to not have the polaroid or negative unlocked which seems really stupid if that's the way that it's intended.

Does the speed challenge do damage to you randomly? I was on an empty floor with no spikes and took three hits within a couple minutes and died.
[QUOTE=Baboo00;49044843]Does the speed challenge do damage to you randomly? I was on an empty floor with no spikes and took three hits within a couple minutes and died.[/QUOTE] It has a timelimit of 16 minutes, so maybe? But that would probably instakill you.
[QUOTE=NateDude;49044892]It has a timelimit of 16 minutes, so maybe? But that would probably instakill you.[/QUOTE] When the time limit runs out you just start taking damage on an interval. It'll kill you but not immediately. It's still possible to win if you can keep your health up for long enough.
somehow managed to beat blue bomber I question the wisdom of making the last 2 stages of satan immune to your only mode of attack only managed to win by using the 30 second invuln card and pressing bandage girl up against satans hairy goat cock [editline]4th November 2015[/editline] wait shit is that illegal don't ban me please
That reddit artist that was originally going to design the new womb alt put up some kewl art of the new boss [url]http://i.imgur.com/DUvwgkz.png[/url]
Protip: do NOT pick up items like Inner Eye that make you shoot multiple shots on the Onan's Streak challenge. I assumed they would all be counted as one shot for the purposes of damaging you, but no. So if you have good damage, the first shot kills the enemy and the other two have nothing to hit and damage you instead.

Update available. [sp]They added more items. Box of Friends nerfed (has 4-room charge now). "You unlocked the Blue Womb!" secret works.[/sp]
[QUOTE=butters757;49045307]Update available. [sp]Box of Friends nerfed (has 4-room charge now).[/sp][/QUOTE] R.I.P. I will never forget the Conga Lines we shared ;_;7
[sp]Pill voice removed. People reporting that the Greed donation machine can pass 109 now, D7 nerfed to 3-room charge, and Azazel nerfed pretty significantly.[/sp]
[QUOTE=butters757;49045370][sp]Pill voice removed. People reporting that the Greed donation machine can pass 109 now, D7 nerfed to 3-room charge, and Azazel nerfed pretty significantly.[/sp][/QUOTE] They should just make an option to turn voice off.
[QUOTE=HappyHead;49045378]They should just make an option to turn voice off.[/QUOTE] Yeah a lot of people were negative about it but I sort of dug it. Oh well, I can always just say the effects to myself.
I found [sp]something called the curse of the tower (I think?)[/sp], but I can't seem to find it on platinum god. It looks like [sp] a torn piece of paper with a tower on it, and Isaac wears it on his forehead. No clue what it does though. [/sp] I don't play a lot of BoI, so maybe it's an old item and I just misread it, but it seems like a new item.

[QUOTE=Psychopath12;49045395][sp]Get hit, activate tower.[/sp][/QUOTE] [sp] Oh boy, this is going to be a fun run. Especially because I picked Azazel before I knew that they killed how fun he was. [/sp]
Did the patch fix the unlocks you're supposed to get from challenges being unlocked from the start? One of the reasons I didn't do them all yet. Something like the [sp]golden bomb[/sp] i've seen without beating the challenges. It might have been in a daily run or greed mode though.
So they just patched the items in because the art wasn't done on release or something? Nice way to lie to your customers about everything being in the game on release...
So those [sp]"Tree branch shadows"[/sp] as reddit calls them in the [sp]Blue Womb[/sp] are actually just veins. I noticed that during the boss fight, they appear more and more as the boss gets weaker. Probably as an aesthetic effect saying that [sp]you're killing the boss and also yourself o no[/sp]
[QUOTE=butters757;49045307]Update available. [sp]Box of Friends nerfed (has 4-room charge now).[/sp][/QUOTE] So they nerfed it in Greed AND Normal mode? I understand nerfing it in Greed more, but why Normal mode?
Azazel is fucking weak as hell now, it's almost unpleasant to play as him until you get his damage up.
[QUOTE=HappyHead;49045378]They should just make an option to turn voice off.[/QUOTE] I liked it...
i found i trinket called "no! never again!" but i can't find it anywhere online anyone know what it does
Already nabbing some of the new stuff. Lost Fly. A familiar that hugs the walls like Guts. Faded Polaroid. A trinket that I didn't keep because fuck you I have a strong Cain build with Guppy's Tail. Paper Clip lyfe. Spidermod. Lets me see enemy health and damage numbers, much like the original Spidermod. Will keep posted as I come across more. EDIT: Head of the Keeper. Fire penny tears. Sometimes knock money out of enemies that you hit. Toxic. Causes the room to fill with poison when you enter. Also, defeating the Hush now counts as an end-game. Once you kill him that's it, get in the chest and get Ending 17. Although I presume that bringing the shovel will let you bypass and continue through Sheol, gonna try that in the morning :v:
Something new I noticed: Restock machines can break if overused since the patch. Blew it up with Dr. Fetus again one too many times and considering just earlier today I was able to empty the item pool with the same method this had to be new. Unsure if it does that with coins too. I feel bad for anyone trying to unlock Lilith. I thought the reason Azazel was the unlock condition was because he's the easiest to beat Greed with besides Lillith and as a result was a good character to jump into greed with.
Thanks to devs for nerfing Azazel. That's single character I was comfortable playing as, due to my [i][b]absolute shit[/b][/i] dodging skills and excess of unpredictable enemies and bullets in late stages of game. Now I can't even get past first floor on greed mode. I guess that's that.
