Bottom row: Mega Satan, Greed Mode, Hush
>What is Hush/Blue Womb?
New boss in a new area that opens when you beat Mom's Heart before the 30th minute.
>How to unlock The Lost?
Please note that the seeds are from Rebirth, and don't work in Afterbirth anymore.
1. Isaac must die to a Mulliboom in one of the Basement floors. Mulliboom seed: FHRD S1N1 (Go into the large room above the starting room. You can easily die from full health in here to them.) Or if not: JTMD EZPF (one is directly below - Normal difficulty)
2. Magdalene must die to her own bomb in one of the Caves floors. (Pyro Seed: ALFA 0NTZ)
3. Judas must die to Mom's Foot as Judas in one of the Depths or Necropolis floors. Good Seed: 8LDE 8XDX (Wait on using the Joker till the 3rd floor and avoid the devil rooms and you'll get the sacred heart. You also get the Sad Onion on the first floor.
4. Azazel must die to Satan in Sheol (his blood/laser form or hooves, NOT leeches or The Fallen). You must NOT use a seed.

I want to sexualize Little Horn!
Was there just another patch?
>all the new alt floors just have filters and recolors/reskins of existing enemies
>all the new enemies are just recolors/reskins that explode upon dying, shoot bullets upon dying or spawn something upon dying
>most of the new items feel half-baked and lazy
>Lilith is actually neat but now that she's been nerfed she's just another gimmick that requires Battery Items to be useful
>Greed Mode is ridiculously basic and typical despite being so hyped up
>synergies still revolve almost-exclusively around Brimstone, Mom's Knife and the Fetus Items
>new bosses range between bland rehashes like Dangle and "stalling for time to make your Speedrun to Boss Rush/Hush hell" like Rag Man and Little Horn
>Ultra Greed and Hush are HP Sponges since Edmund doesn't like players having fun and deserving the power from the combinations they acquired
>the challenges, being based on fucking Reddit Suggestions range between uninspired, moderately interesting and "Pray to RNG you can fucking beat this"
>Edmund trying to do some "ARG" Bullshit that prevents everyone from enjoying the full game because of a few dataminers who spoiled his precious "I die in 1 hit and am basically impossible to use now thanks to bullshit rooms" Lost Mystery in Rebirth by timegating everything all the while acting like a smug, pretentious fuck on Twitter with his buttbuddy Tyrone, which only happened because Edmund was acting like a smug, pretentious fuck on Twitter with his buttbuddy Tyrone about it while the community was putting the pieces together
>every patch just adds an incredibly small trickle of items, trinkets, etc and nerfs characters and other items based on what Reddit feels like complaining about and/or what Edmund deems to be "too fun" for the game

So Ragman now revives multiple trites
fuck off
>>121541276
WHY THE FUCK ISN'T THIS PIECE OF SHIT ON CAVES OR DEPTHS ALREADY?
WHY THE FUCK IS HE EVEN MORE TEDIOUS WHEN HE'S ALREADY BULKY ENOUGH FOR A BASEMENT 1 BOSS?
So there is an update or some shit, did edmund give us more of the steak.
>>121541276
He's always done taht
Why the fuck is free item on first floor treasure room surrounded by fucking rock and only opening is blocked by spikes?
>>121541537
Yes. More nerfs to things that are fun, more buffs to things that are unfun, and we're still waiting for the rest of the steak.
>>121541537
>want to eat my steak well done with A1 and ketchup
>edmund wont let me even though I payed for it

End of greed mode now displays, what is, most likely your chance to jam/explode
Ultra greed's coins now activate WAY faster
Supposedly Azazel's damage is increased.
Hey fuckos, this just in.
Mom's Box+Curved horn gives you almost as much damage as Book of Belial except constantly
A patch (9.8 MB) just came out. I wonder what it does...
>>121541979
Shh, don't let the Egg or his Redditors hear you.
As soon as they catch wind of anything fun or remotely powerful, they'll get it nerfed ASAP.
>>121541895
>jams at 2%

But his charge time is still messed up huh
>>121542191
>first
You're a tad late anon
But yeah Lilith's pretty good, don't get why people hate her so much
>>121542047
Isaac no longer starts with the D6
Yum heart takes 6 charges
Guppy's Head costs 3 hearts
Angel rooms more common
Azazel lost his flight
>>121542247
Not NL, Anon. Eggmund McSteak.
>>121542191
wow just notice she actually gets prego
hot
>>121542306
Ed took away the ability to enjoy playing as her because she made the easiest mode in the game even easier
>>121542360
Fuck off.
>>121542360
>Angel rooms more common
tfw when I want to fight mega satan but angel rooms never come out
>>121542296
>>121541895
>Azazel is still borked. Even the damage.
>next update
>The Soul, Orbitals and Lost Contact no longer affect Hush and Ultra Greed's Bullets
>their damage also scales with how much total health you currently have and The Wafer doesn't negate it
I'm just waiting for this to happen.
>>121542360
>Angel Rooms more common
This would be a good thing. People's issues are that they AREN'T common since the ones that do show up are shitty rooms with coins or hearts and the fact that they hold the key to Mega Satan
Not that Devil Rooms are that much better anymore. It's just their Room pool doesn't suck
IT'S TIME
FOR THE LAMB
AFTER ALL THESE ROOMS OF FUCKED UP SHIT
DOUBLE MONSTRO II
DOUBLE TERATOMA
THOSE BLACK GAPERS
THOSE QUADRUPLE RED HUSKS
FUCK THEM ALL
I'M HERE TO EARN THE SOUL, AND YOU AREN'T GONNA STOP ME
>>121542547
Legendary.
>>121542296
Yep, charge is still slow as shit.
And apparently Ultra Greed was totally revamped
>Key coins now spawn in larger number, so in order to get rid of doors you need to destroy more than one
>Coin activation is dependent on his rage, not sure how it's calculated, but at max rage it's nearly impossible to destroy any coins
Overall I think new U. Greed is pretty fun and hard, might actually give me motivation to play greed mode from time to time.
Also, I forgot, it seems like Monstro is no longer the pre ultra greed boss, now it's Greed or 2 super greeds from what I've seen. This is leading me to believe that Monstro was put there as a placeholder and Nicalis forgot to swap him out.
Also, the greed donation machine jam chance increases 1% every 5 coins, and resets when playing a different character. I'm assuming 1125 people need to reach 999 coins before we get the Keeper because >muh ARG
I'd prefer if Edmund did this shit the way that the Surgeon Sim devs did, by having the content available in the first place and having elaborate unlock conditions, but instead of gating the how to unlock shit away, hide it better instead.
This phrase gets thrown around a lot but damage mitigation on Hush and Ultra Greed is the definition ofartificial difficulty
>>121542834
1125 doesn't mean how many people need 999.
It means we're getting the new content regardless on November 25th since there's probably no way for them to actually track how many people reach 999 with their level of competence.
I guess the Dunce hat is cool sometimes.
dude dank depths lmao
>>121542834
>Hide it better
McEggerson couldn't hide The Lost, his ultra secret month-long character. No way the fuckers at Nicalis are smart enough to hide content
Also I'm not surprised about the Monstro, but it really ruins the mode now because Nicalis are shit programmers
>Ultra Greed?
>You fight some Greeds
>That wasn't hard!
>Ultra Greed in the next room
Would've been genius
>>121543128
What's that at the bottom
Just got a pretty bitchin run with The Lost, should I do Hush or Mega Satan?
I mean I can't do both since it stops at blue womb right?
Wow Azazel is just completely unfun now.
Guess I'll just cheat engine Lilith, fuck this.
Oh and how are there fires in the flooded caves?
>Eden run

You can do both assuming you already had Ending 17 beforehand.
>savescumming a Lost run

>game forces 1up effects after a forced reset

Guess I deserved it, huh.
>>121543575
Yeah. Few people know that happens.
Also up against the Lamb, see >>121542653
Both Pyromaniac AND Host Hat. If he keeps up the Ipecac shots, I'm good.
Wew lad
>>121543687
The fuck does Host Hat even do?
>>121543810
Dark Bum literally prints free wins
He will never be balanced
>>121542070
it's already on the wiki
help, I can't kill him
>>121543865
Occasionally lifts up to deflect shots. Makes you immune to explosions a la Pyromaniac.
Also couldn't screenshot it in time, but
>THE SOUL HAS APPEARED IN THE BASEMENT
Now I can go to sleep, after 5-6 fucking hours of Isaac. Job well done. One of the hardest shit I've had to do in my life, honestly.
The feeling you get, when you win as the Lost, after hours of effort paying off. It's exhilarating.
>>121543491
goin on him now, wish me luckshould I save the devil card for Large Lucifer? I dont think its gonna do shit against the Hush's damage cap thing
I just beat Hush with Soy Milk + Poison Tears
I never got hit thanks to getting a Stopwatch in the ??? floor store, but holy hell that took 10 minutes to kill him
>Make greed even more of a bullet sponge
>Increase machine jam rate
BRAVO EDMUND. EVAN ARG
why are lazarus unlocks so shit
Does the hourglass exploit still work for filling up the greed machine?
>>121544406
Because Lazarus is shit
>>121543448
>get Libra and Guppy
nevermind
>tfw being XBOX HUEG saved your life
Thanks pills.
>>121544406
Because Lazarus is a shitty selection padding character that doesn't need to exist.
Why he doesn't start with Suicide King instead of some shitty ass pill is beyond me.
>>121543875
too bad red hearts never ever show up
>>121542191
>>121544639
>Magdalene starts with Immaculate Conception
>Judas starts with Judas Shadow
>Samson starts with Lusty Blood
>Lazarus starts with Suicide King
All this would be dope
>>121544071
Where's Godhead?
>>121544487
S-source?
>>121545005
Exactly why it won't exist.
I wonder how people are beating Guardian. I only get nonsensically unwinnable runs...
New Lost strat
Become a blackhole edition
>>121545063
Which sucks. Samson is at least better than WotL, but Maggy hasn't been touched since fucking Vanilla before even the Halloween Update
Would be perfect unlocks from the Greed Machine
>>121545039
Not unlocked yet. I've yet to beat Isaac / ??? / BossRush / MegaStan / UltraGreed
>>121545091
About that, did anyone else see this really shitty glitch in which the Punching Bag stumbles on spikes and loses like FOUR OR FIVE HP AT ONCE?!
Dude even flashes red for like 6 seconds whenever this happens.
>>121545157
what's attacking him?
>marked + ipecac
welp
>>121545325
Attack fly.
Demon baby
>>121545349
I've seen this post before
>>121545287
It's not a glitch, it's a delicious steak that you're trying to eat too fast.
>>121545349
marked is so dogshit
it's made d4 and d100 so much less appealing for me
>>121545287
>Glitch
Allow me to explain:
When YOU touch spikes, you take damage once, then gain Mercy Invincibility because you're the player.
When the Punching Bag touches spikes, he takes several damage, because he has no Mercy Invincibility.

This shit should be the reward for Greed Machine donations.
It already took Cain from high tier to top tier, why can't it bring the others up as well?
Maybe even make Greed Mode some sort of special mode where you need to at least down one of the 2 final bosses with each character, sans lost before unlocking.
Unlocks could include shit like
>Dice Shard for Isaac
>Petrified Poop for Blue Baby
>Guaranteed Eden's Blessing for Eden
>Curved Horn for Azazel
After unlocking each item, of course.
It would make the Greed machine useful for more than just ARG purposes, and would give motivation to play greed mode to the end.

Have a picture of two skull dudes forever walking on each other until I put a wake up call on their messy pathfinding.
So the only time I have beaten the game was when I beat greed with the blood bag cheese
how to get gud
>>121545578
>It already took Cain from high tier to top tier
You mean it took Cain from 'utter garbage' tier with every single other non Azazel/Isaac/Pre-Afterbrith Judas character, and brought him to 'better than everybody except Azazel/Isaac but still shit' tier
>>121545578
Too fun. Too overpowered. You're not trying to choke on Egg's steak, are you?
God, even NL seems fed up with what's going on.
>>121544639
Well, from a design standpoint, starting with a pill is fitting because Lazarus was sick in his story.
>>121545927
You're getting your memes backwards, you fuck
Egg =/= Egg McMuffin
>>121545774
I can't think of any other item to give Isaac that would fit in his theme, honestly.
>>121545843
>damage modifier higher than everyone except for Judas
>guaranteed second floor item room no matter what
>highest base luck stat, increasing chances of finding lucky pennies, and gets better payouts from the bloodbank.
>>121545927
NL is Egg, Edmund is Eggmound/Eggmund/Egg mcmuffin.
>>121545983
At the very least, could that starting pill be coded to be positive or neutral? I'm getting real fucking sick of having to R just because my starting pill was a Health Down or Bad Trip.Especially since I have no idea if that "Revived Lazarus can't get Lazarus' Unlocks" Thing is true or not, knowing fucking Edmund lately.
Someone tell Edmund there's still fun to root out
>>121546019
It's easy to keep track of who is who, one is a scumlord who understands nothing about the binding of isaac despite dedicating years of his life to it, and the other is northernlion.
>>121545927
Does he? He pads his speech with apologies so often I can't tell.
What'd he say?
>Bloody Penny in Greed Mode
thx for the free win
>>121546170
Just use it after you've killed yourself on the first floor. It turns health down into health up and bad trip into full health. It only sucks if it's tears or speed down because of the wasted time but oh well.
>>121546274
The immense amount of sighing and tone show that he would just like to play the game without bullshit. This latest patch shows that the devs and edmund give zero fucks about their consumer base and just like fucking with people. I'm kinda getting tired of all this bullshit and its become worse than the WOTL release.
>>121546186
>48 Hour Energy no longer recharges your current item and only spawns One Battery
>Pickups can only be duplicated and/or rerolled once
>Goodie Bags no longer contain Batteries and are far, FAR rarer even with the sack

>>121546274
He said something like "I'm not too sure about these patch changes, but Edmund and Tyrone know what they're doing and it's their game so they probably understand better than I do, so let's give them a shot, I'll probably end up loving them"
That's the canadian equivalent of a death threat.
>>121546274
iirc in his latest Daily video he recognized that it was dumb to nerf a character after a year and he said he's not sure if he believes things aren't in the game because of bugs instead of a timegate.
>>121546420
SUSH ANON...SHIT!
Goddamn man....
>picking up items lowers my stats
hello?
>>121546727
Gotta nerf your stats in exchange for spiders no longer trying to hurt you, Anon!
Don't want to eat that steak too quickly now, do you?
>Book of belial didn't get nerfed to 25%
>It got nerfed to 12%
Edmund, why.
I wonder if NL browses this general. Seems like the kind of guy that would consider browsing 4chan a dirty secret.
>>121546727
>all items in the game now lower any stat that they do not raise
>the better the item, the more stats get lowered
That's a brilliant idea if I do say so myself.
Is there a more useless item than the lost fly
who thought that item would be fun
>>121546727
Pretty minor. But it's interesting how most of these small stat ups and downs aren't on the wiki.
patch notes anywhere?
>>121547028
Maybe not for new afterbirth items but ones from before like Small Rock that give further speed downs when you take a speed down pill etc are documentedl
>Just beat Chest, Dark Room, and Boss Rush as the Lost
>No Godhead
Excuse me Eggman. It seems you fucked up again
>>121547053
Adjustments have also been made to balance the game and make for a more pleasant gaming experience.
>>121546985
go fix SPEED! first egghead
>>121547127
was it all on Hard mode?
>>121547127
You have to do them on hard mode
>>121540293
Ok so is the reason they didn't buff azazel again was because he would've been easy to rush through on greed mode and hence people would get to the "secret" too quickly? I'm not sure but this seems like a cluster fuck right now.
>>121546968
I really doubt it. I think he barely browses anything because of the amount of shit he records. That and his latent magic addiction is enough to keep him busy.
>>121547124
Ah, nice.
>>121547127
They changed it in Afterbirth.
Need the whole Lost post-it blood red from Hard Mode and your tears to earn Godhead.
Yes, even Hush, Ultra Greed, Mega Stan.
>>121547053
Added ultra greed health
Removed fun
>>121547183
Fix your buggy game edmund.
>>121546695
Holy shit I remember the shitstorm after Krampus' Head was nerfed in Rebirth. Even NL said it seemed like a bad idea and that there would be no reason to pick it up most of the time, to which Tyrone replied something like "all i hear is waah waah". Needless to say, NL apologised and admitted he should wait before jumping to conclusions. I swear, this guy makes me mad sometimes.
>>121547053
They're just greed mode changes. Move along.
>>121547127
Gotta do Mega Satan, Hush and Greed Mode now :^)
>>121547127
Nope!
You gotta beat Hush, Ultra Greed and Mega Satan now!
ALL on Hard Mode!
>>121547127
You need to fill out the ENTIRE post-it note as the Lost to unlock godhead.
You know what that means for afterbirth right?
HUSH, MEGA SATAN AND GREED MODE AS THE LOST
DON'T EAT YOUR STEAK TOO QUICKLY MOTHERFUCKER :^)
>>121547192
You're doing it again.
Egghead is NL, cause he has an egghead
>>121547127
No he didn't. You unlock godhead by clearing the lost's post-it note. That's how it always worked.
You've still got three things on that post-it buddy.
>>121547028
>Pretty minor
well yeah but it happened every time, I started the floor with 23 damage and ended at about 16
At first I thought it was just Libra balancing out my stats, but then I realized it was happening with items that don't even affect stats. All the changes were reverted when I changed floors though
>>121547254
And t o this day no one has ever picked up Krampus' Head again.
>>121547227
>>121547212
I DID
>>121547248
>>121547264
Yeah fuck no. Not doing Mega Satan as the lost ever
At least until he makes it easier to unlock the fuckers door
Am I going crazy or does the starting floor seem much longer?

YUP. THIS CHARACTER NEEDED A NERF ALRIGHT. THE DUDE WITH NEXT TO NO SYNERGIES NEEDED TO BE NERFED INSTEAD OF USELESS SHITS LIKE LAZARUS AND MAGGY GETTING BUFFED.
ALL IN ONE FUCKING BITE RIGHT ED?!
>>121547517
Needs Dead Dove and Spirit of the Night now, among several other new items.
>>121547382
>Not doing Mega Satan as the lost ever
Just get Mom's Knife and a lot of damage boosts, it literally one-shots each of Satan's phases with just a few decent bonuses. The only hard part is the Horsemen/Sins/Angel spam
>>121547382
It's not that hard, you just have to skip the first devil deal, hope you get an angel room on floor 3 (50% base chance, can be increased by certain things like donating 10 coins to the donation machine)
You can exploit a single angel room for multiple key pieces by exiting and reloading the game after killing the angel
>>121547382
If you can get past the caves as the lost you can beat mega satan as the lost
Since ultra greed has shown bosses can have fluid animations, I think we could use some super horsemen
Alright, tired of getting my shit kicked in with Issac. Who do I play to just grind Mom's Heart unlocks out?
>>121547530
>>121547235
LIterally nerfed because of this, you're all being lied to by eggmuffin.
>>121547772
I'd say Azazel but then I'd choke on my steak :^)
>>121547614
>>121547690
I'm fine with fighting him. Hell I already beat Hush as him on my Boss Rush run
Not fine with trying to get the piece of shit key pieces
>>121547678
Can you make the Angel's start spawning items after that?
Either way I just got all the other parts of his note done today so I'll wait on that
>>121547772
anon
come on
i mean
come

>>121547772
Cain
>>121547235
so cute
>>121547772
I don't know how you are getting pooped on, but Judas will carry you.
>>121547878
>Can you make the Angel's start spawning items after that?
No, they'll only drop key pieces. You can reroll them into angel items with the D6/D100/Dice shard/Perthro though
Kinda miffed the angel laser isn't an item. You could even have killed enemies leave fires.
Woulda been a cool "holy brimstone"
>>121548039
What if you reroll them with the D4
Cant you just farm their room until you have gone through every item then?
So i bought rebirth for ps4 and i'm having a pretty good time
never played this game before and ended up unlocking all the characters except judas in the first 5 or so runs
I checked the patch notes for this game and wow does the dev just nerf things constantly? like that's a common theme i'm seeing, just nerf after nerf, which i personally don't get since it's a single player game
what's up with this shit?
>Mom's Knife first floor
>The Soul
>Serpent's Kiss
>Bloody Penny
>Two of Diamonds
literally impossible to lose
>>121548432
>9%
you best start rolling other characters to expediate your steak consumption process.
>>121548432
>9%
Eating kinda fast there anon, you might wanna slow down
>>121548432
slow the fuck down :^)
>>121548235
>just nerf after nerf, which i personally don't get since it's a single player game
I don't get why people think a single player game doesn't still need to be balanced
>>121548719
Eggsalad is doing a shit job of it.
Just nerfing everything over and over. Never buffing the garbage items or the garbage anything
>>121548719
BoI is a game where ALL items are optional to pick. If you think an item or combo is too OP, just avoid it. To make it worse so that nobody can enjoy it is just petty.
This should not be allowed.
>>121548216
Yes, you can
You need a bomb to wake him up each time, unless you make a key pedestal spawn on top of the angel, at which point he'll wake up as soon as you reload into the game because it destroys his "block"
However, if you accidentally pick up a key piece while doing so, the angel will stop dropping them, so you have to avoid picking up any while farming him
>>121548719
Edmund's method gives the player less options and control over how they play the game.
>>121548719
>implying that nerfing things will balance anything
if everything gets nerfed to shit then yeah you have balance
what about 90% of the items that a pure shit that aren't getting buffed? is that balance?
>>121548996
You know, the Angel Room pool is actually quite good. It's a huge shame you only rarely get items from them.
>>121548996
ANON NO WAIT DON'T LET EDMUND SEE THIS
DON'T LET HIM KNOW THAT WE FIGURED OUT HOW TO HAVE FUN

is there a transformation or something when you pick body+mind+soul?
>>121548815
>>121549003
Oh yeah sure, I should've specified im not defending edmunds shitty changes, but I keep seeing here that a single player game doesn't need to have changes to it purely because it's single player. I don't know whether it's the same guy over and over though.
>>121548867
That's true, I just thinks it's silly to have to intentionally gimp yourself in order to compensate for bad design choices
>>121549125
There are times when things need to be nerfed/buffed but edmunds just doing a poor job of it
>>121549330
No
You do get flight if you pick up three angel items, though.
>>121548996
Uh oh
that actually sounds kinda...
kinda... f-f-fun
>>121547982
Cutest in the game
No seriously why
What kind of substance does this add to the game

bait them then move slowly with them
How do you dodge the Mega Fatty's insta-butt slam?
>>121550992
don't stand still, first of all
second, if he moves slightly in your direction when he's jumping, that means it's a fast one, so you should move as fast as possible
fortunately, you don't have to move as much as his other jump, because the shockwave pushes you a bit out of the way
if you're never standing still you should be fine though
>>121550992
You don't.
I hope you enjoy it, and I hope you get ready to fight double cage :^)
>>121550992
Keep moving.
Also, I just got a patch. What is in it before I update?
>>121551208
If it's the same patch that happened earlier today, greed mode changes. Ultra greed is harder now, Greed/Super greed instead of Monstro, and it now shows your percentage chance of the greed machine jamming
>>121550158
Wait, would tech 2+continuum just create an infinite laser?
>>121551208
I think they buffed Azazel.
>>121551378
No, beam items stop at the walls of a room.
>>121544668
Even on Hard Mode, they're too many red hearts.
Edmunch should fix that.
Which mod is it that gives you all the stats on the left?
>>121551730

>>121551769
thx bby
Surprise
Azazel is still completely fucking useless
>>121552621
but that's not a surprise
>>121552621
Thanks Edmund.
>Have a good Lost run on Greed Mode going
>Curse of the Maze into the cursed room
Hahaha, well meme'd!Seriously why is this allowed.
>>121552621
>Azazel is still completely fucking useless
I can still win with him just fine :^)
Is there anyway to unlock ending 17 if you fucked up the first time? I had everything unlocked prior to Afterbirth and apparently to help people unlock ending 17 in the last patch they made the next time you encountered hush give you the chest for the ending. But I accidentally killed myself on a bomb before touching the chest. Is there anything I can do to unlock it? Any CE magic?
>>121552621
>boring character that's boring attack doesn't synergize for shit
>only thing of note is he is moderately powerful early on
>"Hey lets making this boring character even more shit by removing the only reason he is okay!"
>>121553034
only good thing he has going for him
>>121553493
Try it in the most recent patch. If you don't get the chest, report back.
There should really be patch notes for this shit.
>>121553525
I rarely play Azazel but his only redeeming quality is you can shit out a sub 20 minute run every time and havefun.This nerf makes no sense apart from Ed preventing people from farming money for Greed Mode and ruining their steak.
>>121553875
Why doesn't he nerf particular characters FOR Greed Mode? League and DOTA 2 do that fine for their official custom modes, if the concern that Azazel can burn through Greed Mode too fast then nerf him for Greed Mode.
So what the fuck did this patch actually do?
>>121553828
Just did a run as ??? to beat hush for the unlock but no dice. Hopefully a future patch gives me something or eventually someone can find something I can do in cheat engine.
>>121553875
Literally could be the only reason they did this. Also ties in with the fact that Lilith was nerfed as well. I mean there is ARG shit and then there is just obnoxious fucking bullshit like what they're pulling at the moment. I would like to just play the game without having to deal with this buggy piece of shit just because they want to feel special. Everyone knows about the fucking character anyway.
>>121554145
Keep throwing that shit at Edmund then. Email, twitter, whatever.
what's a good strategy for family man?
i've tried restarting until i get guppy's head in a sacrifice room first floor but then i never end up getting other guppy pieces for the transformation
the damage simply isnt there for later levels, takes too long to kill anything
>>121554067
The thing i don't understand is why nerf the character in the first place, it's a single player game. There is no competition, no need to balance.
After a while of playing the game it gets easy and it's up to the player to make it challenging for themselves
>>121554306
Honestly, I found Azzy pretty tricky with Greed Mode. No red hearts sucks, his flying is just about useless, and his low range really makes itself noticeable.
>>121554515
Go to shops. Red Candle, Blue Candle, and Stopwatch pretty much guarantee a victory.
>>121554139
>Edmund
>Patch notes
>Nice joke
Every day I'm hating this game more, because of the particular way he wants us to eat our fucking steak.
>>121554527
He probably thinks it just makes the game too easy, despite having to get unlocks on every character INCLUDING THE FUCKING LOST (and Lazarus/??? who I despise) to unlock everything. The game already has a skill cap, why nerf the character more?
Do you have to hold three guppy items to get the transformation or only pick up three?
>>121554527
>After a while of playing the game it gets easy and it's up to the player to make it challenging for themselves
That's who he's balancing it for. So that the people who've played it for a million hours can't win every time, no matter how good they are.
>>121554785
Pick up 3, you don't have to hold them.
>>121554785
You only need to touch them. Paw and Head can be dropped. You can even re-roll your build with the D4/D100/MissingNo and it still counts the touch.
>>121554848
Only pick up 3. Any items that count towards a transformation can be dropped/rerolled and still be counted.
>>121554515
That's probably the hardest of the rebirth challenges. I would just hope for a bob's brain and hopefully another follower or too, getting guppy seems like a stretch.
When I did it I had the issac head trinket, abel, bob's brain and got lucky with soul hearts.
>>121546246
I'll admit I laughed
>>121554848
>Tie a character to a certain, other character to unlock
>Pick one of the easiest characters to play
>Be surprised when people are rushing through the easiest mode with the easiest character to play as to unlock the best character for said mode
Honestly, they just look retarded in retrospect
I have too much time on my hands. Too bad you can't hear game music though, since I replaced that too.frisk is very bald i need to give him hair
What is the 10% thing on the side?
Chance of blowing up?
>>121555413
Chance of jamming. Slow down friend :^)
You can reduce that chance by playing other characters.
>>121555393
Nice, anon.
>>121554848
>so people who've played it for a million hours can't win every time
So balance a game for the few thousand you have actually poured that much time into this game and screw over the other million?
... actually that seems like something retarded they would actually do
>>121555413
Woah buddy, 10%, slow down with that steak little man.
>>121555597
I'm not making this shit up, I'm fucking quoting. Edmund has explicitly said that he wants NOBODY to be able to win consistently, no matter how good they are.
>% counter in greed mode
literally why, what is the justification? was fun too much to ask?
>>121555696
What a massive tool, no game designer should ever make a game solely where even winning is RNG
This last week has never made me go from zero to hate of a gamesince Smash
>>121555806
Remember when he said this dlc was "for da playahs?" What a crock of shit.
>just lost a perfect guardian run because a walking host wouldn't pop his head up for me to kill him and just walked into my heart until it died
I'm starting to get really fucking fed up with this game
>>121556049
At least there's now mercy invincibility, although spikes still fuck you over for 4 hearts worth of damage.
>>121556049
>punching bag walking over spikes or into red poop
>take 4 hearts of damage
Fucking HOW
>Start an Eve Greed run

This has nowhere to go but up!

Chew slowly
hey guys i fixed the guardian challengepunching bag has a leash like gemini
So who is the shithead pushing all those nerfs? Is it Tyrone? Edmund is not the programmer here, just an artist and game designer, right?
Cool new secret room
Better thatn that one with just a black poop and spikes
Better than the fucking pills ones too
>>121556668
Loads of health and money.
Also quad shot.

>>121557136
Ed is the one who comes up with the item concepts/gameplay mechanics and how things should look, he has no say in how it's implemented into gameplay.
I hate everything about this expansion except for the items which I never fucking get
Wasn't there supposed to be some kind of chain lightning attack?
Also I really don't care for these puzzle rooms. At all.
>>121557190

Something's not right here.
>>121557864
Have you fucking played Afterbirth?
Have you fucking played the Cave Story remake?
Nicalis is incompetent as all fuck, it was a miracle that Rebirth came out in a nearly perfect state.
He's also the art director, and he also handles the story himself, and in vanilla he was the only artist. He's not just an ideas guy.
Man this Daily run is fucking weird
>>121557194

anyone miss the old health system?
