games

my walmart has 2 aisles and they are at the back

are you a walmart shopper?

I never knew that fully skipping the first devil room (not even looking in it) guaranteed the next deal is an angel room in isaac

I have 1k hours in Isaac and a lot of those were wasted because I did not know that mechanic

Incredible

I always looked!

How

Thats how you get angels

the lower chance of getting an angel if you don't buy from the room

I had literally never seen or heard a single person skip the room entirely

I did not know that was a mechanic

I watched like 5000 episodes of NL playing and he never did it

In fact, I've watched a shit ton of Isaac content

And I've never seen a SINGLE person fully skip the room without even looking in it

Thats a crazy thing not to know

surprising you missed that

I read the wiki and it's not even listed

I thought I had read that on the wiki

I could have missed it

Or it just got buried in a ton of DLC shit

Either way I really have never heard anyone even mention that as a mechanic

Until today

Idk if I learned it myself or saw it in a video

It's crazy to me that this exists

With how much Isaac content I've watched

but I did know skipping devils is how you get angels, so it is not too hard to realise if you skip the first devil and always have a 100% angel

this is a mechanic from the repentance DLC

Thank god

I'm not insane

If it had existed forever I would be worried

I didn't watch as much repentance content comparatively

So this makes sense

My issac content was old old northernlion, then huge gap, then modern post all DLC stuff

I just started watching some again

Which I guess explains why this is the first time I've heard of it

I still definitely did waste some time on mega Satan runs, but not as much as I originally thought

It's a really good mechanic

Glad they added it!

Rusp, what if instead you were really retarded and never learned the angel fight mechanic

so you spent 100 hours reseting for dads key

There is genuinely a person who exists who probably did that pika

"God this game fucking sucks, why would they lock an entire ending behind complete RNG that you cannot avoid"

Delirium used to be complete rng I think

Me when I want to fight delirium but I am too shit to ever get to hush so I did not know there is a 100% ...

yeah

good fix from the recent update though

now its 100% for ????, lamb, and mega satan

which is nice

This mfer grinded his shit out in repentance

Do you know how many times I would sit there dejected at the end of a run because delirium didn't spawn

>Not having the backup R key in your backpack just in case

dude what the fuck is wrong with you

I'm sorry

You're right

Actually no greater pain than beating mega satan and the cutscene immediately pops up though

I do like that I skipped all of the interum DLC and just played final state issac

so I have no idea what awful things I missed

Really those were the only truly bad things

Oh

Right

The lost not having mantle at first

lol

That was a fun time

I did do old lost, that was such a skill issue character

actual hardmode

When I want an actual challenge I play tainted lost now usually

Regular lost is actually not a bad character IMO

Tainted is unironically a good character if you are not dogshit

since the better item pool

Yeah

I think they managed to balance both of them to be fun

(Man who has already completed all challenges so has nothing to complain about)

Regular lost is honestly pretty top tier in terms of how good he is because of the mantle

free devil deals is great

I've bought 0 of the DLC for Issac but started playing recently, feels bad without mods tbh

Repentance?

I have never touched the lost because I stopped playing before it got mantle

Other than the item description mod, you really do not need mods to enjoy issac

Base rebirth is pretty basic

item description just replaces looking at the wiki
