i love binding of isaac
heading towards the hardest boss with a pretty good 8/10 build
got an item that makes me do ridiculous damage, probably 95% chance i'd clear the game
right after got an item that TOTALLY bricked me
right after that got an item that combined with my last two pickups makes me completely invincible
this will be the easiest boss clear ever

high damage high fire rate build
get a powerup that turns my main attack into bombs that scale off my damage (very nice)
grab a mystery powerup, increased my fire rate substantially but drops my range to almost zero so i literally can't attack without blowing myself up
then found a powerup that makes explosion damage heal me instead of hurt me

too easy

every time someone goes on about dead cells or hades or whatever roguelike is popular nowadays i always wonder why they aren't playing the binding of isaac instead
one run of isaac has more depth than those two games combined

Follow

@rosey probably because binding of isaac has been out for a lot longer and people have played it to death.

personally i don't like the core gameplay of isaac that much, i can see myself playing dead cells or hades way more if i ever did play them.
