Re: The Binding of Isaac: Wrath of the Lamb
Yeah, it seems fantastic so far!
I tried it out, and I died at Utero 1, but it was mostly due to sloppy playing.
Oh, and I encountered a glitch(?) where it showed I had 0 health.

I think it was because of my combination of the Ankh and the 1-up. When I died the second time, I came back with no health, but it was basically the same as saying "next time you get hit, you're dead."

Re: The Binding of Isaac: Wrath of the Lamb
Ugh... This game and its luck-based difficulty is really showing again.
I've died in the Depths the last like, 5 attempts, and I just can't seem to get any further. I'm milking the D6 for all I can, but I just either get spacebar items or crappy passive items like pageant boy or something.
In other news, I've done 4 of the 6 Isaac kills needed to unlock the Polaroid so far, so uh... There's that.

Re: The Binding of Isaac: Wrath of the Lamb
I remember hearing that you can't use it on Satan, but I didn't know that the same thing goes for Isaac...

Re: The Binding of Isaac: Wrath of the Lamb
I've been working on some of the challenges, and I just unlocked Guppy's Tail. I'm a bit confused, though, cause I've already encountered it on multiple occasions. Maybe it was through the D6, though.
Oh, and I did my 6 Isaac kills. Haven't tried out the chest yet, though. Decided I'm gonna get some challenges completed first.

Re: The Binding of Isaac: Wrath of the Lamb
I did it... I... Did it...
I'm still shaking... First time making it to blue baby... And I somehow killed it...
So... Was that the real ending, then?

Re: The Binding of Isaac: Wrath of the Lamb
I never even beat the chest before because by the time the update that fixed the Polaroid came out, I was all Isaac'd out.
Re: The Binding of Isaac: Wrath of the Lamb
Beating Bluebaby gets you the best ending, so yes, that was the real ending.

Re: The Binding of Isaac: Wrath of the Lamb
Oh, wow.
You should read up on this:
http://twinfinite.net/blog/2012/10/01/b ... -chompers/
Edmund McMillen himself confirmed it by saying it's "By far the most mind blowingly accurate break down of the over arching meaning behind the binding of isaacs ending."
I still would kinda like to know the backstory with the dad, though...

Re: The Binding of Isaac: Wrath of the Lamb
The dad was Isaac's dad, and the keys were for getting in the house.Ashanmaril wrote:I still would kinda like to know the backstory with the dad, though...

Re: The Binding of Isaac: Wrath of the Lamb
Dang it! I almost beat Sheol with ???
My damage was pretty good, but I was doing TERRIBLE on health for the whole run, so the fact I even made it to the third phase of Satan is kinda surprising to me.
All it will take is a run where I get the book of Revelations and the habit and I should be good. How useful is the forget me now, anyway?

>Started run with ???
>Got Technology 2
>Got Polyphemus
>Beat Chest
However, when I completed it, it said "Eve's bird foot has appeared in the basement" and then I got the Samson's lock achievement. What?

Re: The Binding of Isaac: Wrath of the Lamb
They are glitches. You still have to beat the chest with every character; it will just unlock the wrong item each time.

Re: The Binding of Isaac: Wrath of the Lamb
So, did I actually unlock Eve's bird foot? Or did I unlock ???'s soul but got the wrong pop-up?
Re: The Binding of Isaac: Wrath of the Lamb
I don't know.

Re: The Binding of Isaac: Wrath of the Lamb
Alright. Some guy on r/bindingofisaac linked me to a thread on the Steam Forums that explained how the broken achievement system works.
Apparently Isaac and Maggy's achievements are the only ones that work completely.

Well at least it's not a some-are-unobtainable-and-others-do-nothing sort of deal.

Yeah, that's what I was worried about.
In other news, I'm really not looking forward to doing The Purist challenge.

The purist challenge is easy. I beat it on my first try.
