The Binding of Issac: Pee Pee Doo Doo Jesus is a Bad President

I kind of hate a lot of AB+, but there’s some real real nice items. Smelter is one of my favorites in the entire series, and Cracked Crown is a pretty goddamn strong trinket (yes I literally attempted a 5-win daily streak 3 times before I pulled it off, yes I’m trying to 100% this expansion pack too, please kill me), so the two together can be heavenly.

I literally only have to play dailies until I get the achievement and I’ll be done with this game, meaning I can finally play it for real after I’m done unlocking everything.

wait, WHAT

e: also Delirium is a pretty cool boss IMO, and it just has a shitload of health instead of having the boss damage reduction that makes it no fun at all to replay Greed Mode or fight Hush. (Spoilered the names of certain bosses just in case there are people who haven’t encountered them yet. Feels like it might be arbitrary but I’d rather not run the risk of ruining names for anyone)

Binding of Isaac is my favourite game about infanticide.

I haven’t picked up Afterbirth+ yet, and from reviews im proooobably gonna hang off for a while. Besides, i literally just got Afterbirth (without the plus) this january, so I’ve got a lot of content to get through. Greed Mode is so much fun =o
Also I didn’t know Anitbirth was a thing, excited to check that out owo

Antibirth’s optional chapters are pretty neat, the treasure rooms in them have two items to choose from but if you’re in co-op and time it right you can pick up both items.

Antibirth is pretty much unequivocally an improvement over Rebirth. The only thing I’m not hot on is one of the new characters. That and the fact that it ate my save.

If you don’t have afterbirth like me and start up normal Issac and start a game it’ll wipe your antibirth file.

It sucks.

Well that explains it…

I’m still trying to confirm what exactly triggers it to wipe your file.

I’ve never actually played Isaac before but I’ve been incredibly interested for years, and seeing how Afterbirth+ is a Switch launch title, I’m definitely picking that up.

Issac is a great on the go game. I know lots of people who still carry around their vita/have bought ios controllers for it. Hell, its the reason I lug my xbox-huge laptop on plane trips and train rides, melts the hours away.

It’s been super useful for me lately, what with getting into video editing, because its low impact enough that I can render a video and play it at the same time.

I’m excited for it, I hear it has huge replayability and i’m a sucker for the Zelda dungeon esque levels. It’ll def be my most played on Switch with BOTW being close behind.

I just started trying to tackle the new challanges. Holy shit, I thought afterbirth had some shitt challanges, but these take the cake. These are stright up bad and unfun.

I played Rebirth a ton. I think I unlocked everything in it but never got real platinum god because there was a secret room item or two that I could never actually find in a run. But I barely played any of Afterbirth, and I didn’t even know Afterbirth+ existed.

I have it on PS4. Should I get Afterbirth+, or would I be better off getting the PC version and playing Antibirth? That looks pretty fun.

The game usually drops pretty heavily during steam sales, so I think I’d honestly recommend the latter. Afterbirth+ is neat, but I think I was more impressed with Antibirth.

Hot co-op tip: In Antibirth don’t let player 2 select Jacob & Esau or everything crashes and something horrible happens to your installation.

Why would they even let you select him?

My solution is to just never select them because I don’t like that character.

I had a run a while back where I got the ability that made bombs explosions significantly bigger, made troll bombs spawn when I got hit, and made explosions heal me.

I was unstoppable.

Afterbirth+ finally came out on Switch and jesus it’s so addicting

My first successful run ended with Isaac as a giant(3 size up pills lol) black demon shooting giant poison orbs of destruction. It was great.

Are mods available on the Switch version? Because holy hell are there some wild ones now.

I doubt it, sadly. Only thing confirmed to have mod support(I think?) is the Skyrim port.
