She was a fatty

Religion

'cuz her kid's an asshole

She was a fat superstitious woman.

bad brain fueled by Jesus television

Probably because Edmund hates his mom.

DUDE RELIGION LMAO

She wasn't, not really. At least, not to Isaac. But Isaac couldn't process their religious beliefs and her actions towards his father.

She was negligent at worst, watching TV all day instead of, you know, talking things out with her young son who didn't know better.

can someone explain the plot of BoI to me

I thought it starts with Isaac's mom killing Isaac in a sacrificial ritual patterned after the biblical binding of Isaac, and the game itself takes place in the afterlife or Hell or something. but reading this post leads me to believe that I may have misapprehended the plot.

That is what you are led to believe at first. The truth is, Isaac has made up the entire thing in his head, and the game is a feverish hallucination as he suffocates to death in his toy box.

Mom did do things like threaten him with a knife (possibly because he liked to dress like a girl) and argue with the dad to the point where he left or was forced out. But she never actually heard God (or Satan) tell her to kill Isaac.

I didn't want these feels user.

>using bible during mom fight kills her
dude

>Isaac is a weird fucking kid who likes to wear wigs and act like the characters from mommy's bible
>dad divorces mom because Isaac keeps acting like a freak
>mom gets depressed
>isaac gets depressed
>reads the bible and becomes convinced that he's a demon
>locks himself in his toy chest so he won't hurt anyone again
>game is a fever dream due to lack of oxygen
>isaac suffocates to death in the chest
The end

but remember this is all fan speculation

Would you say that it's a theory?

No.
It's a hypothesis. A theory is something that is backed up by evidence and rigorous testing.

yes but it's just a theory
a gay theory

A little less so now that we have the true final boss and ending. Delirium is basically a huge Isaac head that mutates into any other boss creature and the true ending has Mom find Isaac's remains in the box, plus a more direct photo timeline.

Hrmph

>Cross dressing fag kills himself

Lol

Religious and ideological fundamentalism corrupts people into monsters, what a shock

From fruit to veggies?

>uncaring parents refusing to provide a supportive environment for their child and the lies of fire and brimstone religion results in trauma and the death of an innocent

how do you suffocate in a toy box

By climbing in and closing the lid.

How od you suffocate, though? They're toy chests, not air locks.

it doesn't have to be a perfect seal to not allow enough oxygen in to replace what was lost
not to mention there's no pressure moving air through it

I would say THEY'RE ALL WHITE MALES

>yfw scarred womb

Where the hell are people getting all this backstory from? Is it one of the DLCs? I've got maybe 100 hours in the game, but none of the endings really made much sense to me.

When is Antibirth updating?

Soon

plot of The Binding of Isaac tl;dr:


>isaac's father does something weird
>isaac's mom chases him off
>they get divorced
>they go on welfare, mom doesn't have enough money to buy isaac decent food or toys
>isaac blames it all on his mother
>isaac blames it all on himself
>isaac refuses to blame any of it on his father

you can't suffocate in a box made for children. they aren't airtight and wouldn't be by design.

there are boxes made for children's toys
and there are probably boxes with safety features
not mutually inclusive

not him but Isaacs toybox seems more like a chest than an actual toybox, makes me think of those old attic chest you always see the kids find in movies.

[citation needed]

Basic critical thinking + a few of the item names + most of the endings.

All the "lunch" "dinner", etc items made out of dog food or rotten garbage implies they're poor and he's mistreated. All the crossdressing items along with all the items with names implying they're somehow shameful imply that Isaac enjoys things a fundamentalist christian would say are evil. And then there are the endings that basically spell it out for you, there's the one where isaac looks in the mirror, sees a demon and climbs in the box, there's like half a dozen endings where you see inside the box and either see isaac breathing heavily or dead. And then theres the final ending where you literally watch him die.

As far as the dad stuff goes thats a lot more up in the air. He's only in like 2 endings and both of them basically just show him and the mother splitting up, it's impossible to say why, but you can tell that that's what start's isaac's mother's spiral of depression which is what causes isaac's. Game is probably semi-autobiographical since McMillen grew up in a fundie christian home, hence why all his shit is gross out stuff, uptight religious upbringings always cultivate that.

It looks like a chest with the only opening being a keyhole. Since he's hyperventilating from fear that keyhole is probably not enough to keep him alive

The delirium ending seems to be the one that tells you what happened. Isaac may or may not have had a sister which may or may not have died which may or may not have been the reason their father left. In turn,mom starts being depressed,Isaac starts blaming himself. He thinks he's a devil so he locks himself in the chest where he dies. Did I tell you that Edmund is shit at telling a story?

WHERE'S MEWGENICS? YOU FAT FUCK!

Cancelled. I think he said he didn't find the game fun

Shit, are you telling me that i've wasted years of my life wainting for a game that will never come out?
At least the song was catchy...

She watched Christian Isaac's on the Isaac's until she heard an Isaac from Isaac.

She actually took religion seriously and didn't just cherry pick the small bits she liked as a crutch to avoid the hardships of life like most "religious" people.

So what? I grew up in that home and didn't kill myself or become a crossdresser. Isaac is a pussy.

What about BoI 2? Is the story different?

It doesn't matter because the game can't take it self seriously and doesn't care itself.

You're posting on Sup Forums. Something clearly went wrong regardless.

At least he's not a crossdressing faggot

but he is a faggot

No need to project.

I want isaacs mum to sit on my fucking face

>flooded caves
3.5 damage

she was mad because gungeon is the superior rougelike

You didn't killed yourself. And ?

Toxic femininity.

God told her to be one.

Gungeon isn't a roguelike but good taste anyway.

I've heard Gungeon is a lot slower and doesn't have much variety in it's weapons.
Is that true?

>free will so I don't have to do shit
>kill your son or face my wrath
getting mixed messages here

You answered your own question, OP: she's a woman

it has weapon variety, there are loads and loads of them. It IS slower though, and easier IMO.

THICC

pretty accurate desu, a gungeon run is about an hour to finish
there's an update coming in a couple of months iirc that should fix the lack of fun synergies

Isaac is a good boy

/thread

I think a crucial design flaw with the game is that you're heavily enocouraged to go for too long just using the default weapons to save ammo.

>paying for a flash game

In that case, I'll wait until the update comes out and reconsider buying it then.
I know the devs were saying they were trying to address those complaints with this update.

Isaac and his Isaac, Lived alone in a small Isaac on a Isaac. Isaac kept to himself, drawing Isaacs and playing with his Isaacs while his Isaac watched Isaac broadcasts on the Isaac. Life was Isaac, and they were both Isaac. That it, until Isaac's Isaac heard an Isaac from Isaac: "Your Isaac has become Isaaced by Isaac. He needs to be Isaaced" "I will do my best to Isaac him my Isaac." Isaac's Isaac replied, Isaacing into Isaac's Isaac, Isaacing all that was Isaac from his Isaac.
Again the Isaac called to her: "Isaac's Isaac is still Isaac. He needs to Be Isaac off from all that is Isaac in this Isaac, and confess his Isaacs." "I will Isaac your Isaacs Isaac. I have faith in Isaac." Isaac's Isaac replied, as she Isaaced Isaac in his Isaac, away from the Isaacs of the Isaac.
One last time, Isaac's Isaac heard the Isaac of Isaac Isaacing to her. "You've done as I've Isaaced, but I still Isaac your Isaac to Isaac, To Isaac your Isaac, I will Isaac one more Isaac of Isaac." "Yes Isaac, anything." Isaac's Isaac Isaaced."To prove your Isaac and Isaac, I Isaac a Isaac... Your Isaac Isaac, will be this Isaac. Go into his Isaac, and end his Isaac as an Isaacing to me to prove you Isaac me above all else.""Yes Isaac" She Isaaced, Isaacing a Isaac's Isaac from the Isaac.Isaac, Isaacing through an Isaac in his Isaac, Isaaced in Isaac. Isaacing around his Isaac to find an Isaacing Isaac, he Isaaced an Isaac to the Isaac, hidden under his Isaac. Without Isaac, he Isaac open the Isaac, just as his Isaac burst through his Isaac, and Isaac himself Isaac, into the Isaac Isaacs below...

/thread

maybe one is Christianity and the other is old testament judaism?

>Mom and Dad have two kids: Maggie and Bobby
>Favoritism takes place, Isaac is pushed to the wayside
>Maggie, either through chance or by Isaac's wish, is corrupted and possibly taken by Satan
>Mom tries to use Isaac as a surrogate for Maggie, fraying Dad's already weary state and he leaves
>Mom becomes manically enthused with the Christian dogma

From there, you take lore bits from each character who is an extension of Isaac and his view of himself and his actions.

>Cain - Betrayal of Maggie, items focus on self-preservation and advancement
>Maggie - Idealized version of his sister, has much more health and items are of a distinctly holy bend

And so forth.

It's not difficult.

Isaac had a sister. Sister dies, most likely being inside the toy box whilst they played. Father leaves. Mom takes it out on Isaac. Isaac blames himself. Reads the bible and thinks he's the anti-christ. Gets in toy box and dies, hallucinating as he does so.

Fin.

Sister died in the mother's scarred womb, because of asphyxiation and represented in the game as Hush.

What happened to Bobby?

He was stillborn, probably in rotten state, cause Sloth.

God isn't real ofc she didn't hear Him *le fedora tip*

whats with the cutscene of the lost in the attic whispering to mom cutscene when going down a floor?
whats up with that guys

Her baby daddy left her to raise their several kids alone and their kids are ungrateful pieces of shit?

Lost is Isaac, he blames himself for everything, even in his fantasies.

all cross dressers should off themselves

...

harsh

why was family guy so wild?

>tomo
>crossdresser
I know this is bait, but I want you to please kill yourself in a painfull way.

>it was all a hallucination

Mad? :3

What the fuck caused Isaac to imagine such horrifying nightmares? Not even crack babies can know such fucked up imagery.

>he doesn't get the joke of the meme
>he's cherrypicking
look up estrogen and plastic bottles, you'd get it

I wonder how much of it is that and how much of it is just that people are less judgmental and bully less than they used to.

I'm wondering if a % of guys were always kind of fruity but just hid it their whole lives.

Fuck off with your memes

I remember seeing this Gif on the story behind the game. I'm not sure if it's canon or not, but basically she was married with Issac's dad, but one of their kids died. I think this effected her and she started to drink. Eventually Isaac's dad goes out of the house and dies as well. I think from the lost of two members of the family turns her into this.

That's all it is

Turns out people have lots of varying feelings and interests when you don't subject them to crude and hateful bullying to fuck up their subconscious about it

Possibly. I don't feel educated enough to make a call on the whole thing. I happened to line up pretty much 1 to 1 with the "traditional male gender role" so I don't care much either way. But I'll be honest really feminine men make me a bit uncomfortable. Just seems kind of wrong.
