Rocketlex posted:I've never been able to buy that it's an actual feature, really. More like lazy design passed off as a feature. If that were the case he would never had nerfed Tech 2. More to the point, I'm less willing to call a 20+-year-old genre of games a product of lazy designers all the way down the line.

Raptor1033 posted:It really hinges on your damage output. If you have extremely fast, low damage shots then you're going to lose because of how long it's going to take to kill him with constant counter tears from him. By the same token, my last successful run was The Purist. Picked up Epic Fetus on Basement 1; and from there it seemed like I got nothing but the map, compass, and a full rack of hearts. Got the Polaroid without even trying and left the chest with a Full Health pill in tow. Always nice to unlock three things in one go.

Color Printer posted:I believe he's referring to the imagery. Dead baby, coat hanger, knife. At least it's impossible to lose in the first room without being able to move, unlike some other games I could name

This wasn't on the current update, but here's something the hackers might find interesting: The only time I've gotten a God room before getting a Devil room and it wasn't from a Joker card, I'd picked up the Holy Water. End anecdote.

CaptainWinky posted:The Polaroid makes Guppy's paw own hardcore. If I find the paw in the Depths before the Mom fight I'll convert all my heart containers right then and there. If I don't have a better spacebar item to hold on to, I'll take the paw with me in case I find any more HP ups to convert into extra soul hearts. I think "playing well" is a roundabout way of saying "making it past Mom's Leg"

Doniazade posted:Don't munch too many luck up pills, your luck will roll over into the negatives and you'll get almost no drops and no procs. Does the reverse work? That is, eat a bunch of Luck Downs and roll it over the other way.

goferchan posted:that sounds like it would be really tight though If you have piercing shots, yes. Otherwise, you're just likely to knock things into yourself and die.
