excuse me?

Guppy's Collar has a 50% chance to revive you. You fucked up.

huh, thanks for the tip, I've never not had it revive me so I thought it always happened.

Notice it says X1?
The ? means there's a chance it's not gonna save you.

Guppy's collar is an infinite coinflip revive. You just got unlucky.

At least you weren't playing The Keeper.

>blank card + "the hierophant" card
unless you can't dodge shit or have a shitty build you cant lose. ESPECIALLY with ???

>playing Isaac in the year of our Lord 2017

Stupid cunt

Isaac > Nuclear Throne > Enter the Gungeon

holy fuck I wish that happened on normal runs

>tfw I died at least 8 times with The Lost, only to be saved by Guppy's Collar
BASED

I beat Delirium with The Lost without any Guppy items.

Our Darker Purpose > Necrodancer > Wizard's Lizard 2 > Wizard's Lizard > Isaac > NT > Gungeon

No

>Start another The Lost attempt
>get Brimstone on the first floor
>get psychic tears on the next one and damage upgrades
>shop has Magic Fingers
>after easily beating mom with an all-targeting brimstone at full power i get the dollar bill in an arcade
>can just ''PRESS SPACE TO CLEAR ROOM''

revive items are shit. If you ever have to use one you're fucked anyway, unless it happens to be on the final boss.

Pretty much. They're there to make The Lost playable.

Too bad nothing exists to make The Keeper playable

I managed to MissingNo my way into having Marked, Epic Fetus, Strange Attractor, Quad Shot, Ludovico, and God Head.

Delirium got 2 shot while being flung around the room at incredibly high speeds.

>what is swallowed penny

Is afterbirth/afterbirth+ worth buying? I haven't played BoI since rebirth released.

AB yes, AB+ no.

Why is this game so hard

What's wrong with AB+?

>blank card
>Hierophant
>polaroid

>habit
>literally unkillable
Come at me megastan

Literally designed to be no fun allowed.

>Keeper
>Swallowed penny
>Mom's purse
>Blindfold

Keeper can still get bullied in a corner and killed quite easily. Plus, it doesn't let him take >1 heart devil deals, because Keeper was the most poorly programmed and designed character in existence.

Fuck Tyrone and fuck Nicalis people

Have there been updates to Our Darker Purpose? I played it back when it came out a bit but it didn't really hook me.

well damn son, look at you, getting that right on your first try, not bad.

Casuals don't like it because they can't deal with stone fatties and portals. They want ez wins.

That being said, Greedier mode is literally no fun allowed, unless you break it with blank card/2 of diamonds.

I had a really interesting touch damage keeper run with Midas touch and swallowed penny. I could pretty much ram my face into everything with 0 consequences.

Reminder that even Edmund did admit that it was a mistake to design a DLC with only hardcore players in mind

Dumb plogposter

>Hush is Isaac as he's suffocating
>Delirium is Isaac's brain as it's dying from oxygen deprivation

really makes you think

It's still way too dangerous, and it doesn't help against Hush, Mega Satan, or Delirium.

I'm also pissed that they made a better version of Deep Pockets, which you don't have to unlock. Why the fuck even play Keeper now, after you've gotten the Mega Satan win? Aside from Mega Blast, he unlocks nothing useful.

And Satan is actually God.

Try doing that in Ultrahard then

>Isaac
>Better than nuclear throne
>Better than Gungeon
Lol no

And the prom's tomorrow!

gungeon sucks ass though
