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

every time you wanted to fight satan

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

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

But I still think it's fine

That's literally all id like

>Not having played 1k+ hours and just knowing all the items by heart

Skill issue

I vaguely know what eveything does, but even still, I like it just telling me

I have base Rebirth, but having to second monitor the wiki for most of the items is a pain still. I'm sure after awhile it'll be fine

I've been playing Isaac since I was singular digit age

I do not know exact stat boosts each item gives, I just know what stats the affect

This shit is buried in my neurons

Polar just get external item descriptions

The best item is the clown hat because it gives +0.1 damage

The only other ones I have are boss rush countdown because I forget what round I am on otherwise, and one that makes lucky penies more noticable because I am blind

oh and planetarium chance for the extra hud

I played with 0 mods

which should just be a default thing

But if you're new to the game I think item description mod is alright

I do think part of the fun is picking up something and being like "oh..." though

Issac is cryptic as shit for what some of its things do

especially trinkets

I do not know what a few of the trinkets do still

Even some from original Isaac I'm not 100% sure of

(They changed their effects)
