Yeap, that's the Jera incident to which I referred. That was nuts.

Would love to know, too. I'm assuming it'll be today digital, but physical just may never come here.

It's not today digital.
They've just confirmed this morning that we'll get a physical version, so you'll have to wait til then for the digital one too.
Being Nicalis, we have no idea when that will be, it could be like a year from now.

Christ. That sucks.
Oh, Nicalis, I hate your European releases... This is why I want to go full digital with their games.
I'd get them on US eShop, sadly they won't be linked to my EU account...

Exactly. I'd buy it today if I could. If I bought it on the US shop, I would if it would be linked to my account between switching regions.

What's the glitch? I picked that up on my last rum and it seemed to work as usual.

Sometimes it doesn't unlock after beating the Depths. I have 1,000,000 percent though so it didn't happen to me.
I'm really just using this as a moment to brag.
When you beat Lokii the game doesn't unlock the item.

Ah okay, I've had it unlocked for a while I guess so didn't realise it was glitched
It wasn't really a problem for me on the PC since I had it unlocked back in Rebirth. Sadly there's no way to go back to Rebirth and unlock them on the Switch version.

Got my first Post It on Keeper!
...A blue baby kill lol
I was doing a run to get the Mega Satan post it for Eve, and it didn't end up happening because Abbadon and Maw of the Void in the same Devil Deal was too much to tempt me (and the next floor had Death's Touch! The game was basically begging me not to try Mega Satan. I also had Pentagram at this point from a Fallen boss fight, so Leviathan also...), and then not having enough consistent hearts to do the sacrifice room. Anyway, the Clicker spawns in one of the chests in one of the last rooms before the boss. Use it once, and get Lilith. Meh. Found a battery, and got Keeper this time, and decided to challenge Blue Baby for laughs and now I have Deep Pockets on one stamp in the middle of an empty Keeper post it.

I bought this digitally on Switch today but would love to peruse the instruction booklet somehow, it seems like it'd be helpful.
Does anyone know where I can find a scan of it?

Bisnap is too stubborn in regards to what he will/will not pick up for me to find his runs enjoyable. There was a point where I appreciated "perfect" play but now I much more enjoy watching NL getting out of sticky situations. Guess I'm just a sucker for the zane...

I suck at this game but I can't stop playing.
I posted this on the switch thread, but I figured it would be fitting here as well:
It was really cool to stumble upon that great set of items.

Yeah, getting the Guppy transformation is almost always a guaranteed win.

The fact that Void showing up is a % chance is such a dumb decision. Why gate that off? At the very least it should always show up once you've beat the Chest or Dark Room. I've had like 4 amazing Lillith runs in a row and it's so annoying I can't get that on my post it.

Just noticed after going into my American account eshop it says I've purchased Zelda :S guess it just detects it on the device rather than account...Wonder if Isaac will show the same on my UK account when it releases
It's guaranteed after Hush.
Isaac is a lot of fun to learn on your own for a while and just see what happens. If you really get into it you'll want to eventually look up what things do and what are the best synergies, but there's nothing like those first however many hours where everything's a mystery and you have no idea what stuff does.
Dangerblade
Member
Yup, but it makes sense they'd make you take the most difficult path to have a guaranteed chance to face the final boss (which is why I'm putting off Lost and Keeper runs for as long as I can).
Yeah it's really fun so far I haven't looked anything up so far.

I can understand missing boss rush, but missing hush is kinda hard. The 30 minute limit is pretty generous. Plus, if it's taking you more than that maybe your run isn't really in 'void' territory.

What does it mean when the price of an item is in red even tho I have the funds?
It's on sale.

you're not gonna get better by watching people play imo. you gotta just keep playing. you get the hang of it eventually.

The booster pack is coming next week
The booster pack after that will also probably make new achievements and unlocks to make the PC version match the Switch version (this won't affect anyone with old saves).
This would be Apollyon, Greedier Mode, the Afterbirth alt stages, the portal enemy spawners and DLC bosses

Feel kinda dumb for asking but how do you play co-op? I don't see an option anywhere.
Azazel is pretty much easy mode so he's best for a beginner. I love playing as Eve, Eden, Lillith, and Apollyon. Magdalene is the worst non challenge character IMO.
Outside of a few more gimmicky characters like Azazel, it largely doesn't matter after the first few floors. Generally I like Isaac because the ability to reroll items with the D6 is nice but it takes a bit to unlock that. Similarly, Apollion with The Void is good for making use of otherwise kinda useless items.

Judas is pretty good. He can snowball pretty hard once you get over his terrible HP.
This game is really fun and I'm doing alright even though I'm panicked and feel like I'm on the verge of death the whole time lol
I've had 13 deaths so far, two of which were on
but I finally killed it this last time using the
. Still not sure if I have a good strategy to beat that legitimately. Brimstone and Daddy's Long Legs got me there pretty easily.
It gave me a Mom kill for that, even though I'm guessing the game goes much further than that.

This scared me off :/
Lazarus is great just make sure you
get that pesky death out of the way as soon as possible so you can power up and rebuild your HP base
