    How does it... um... how does it work?

    I know not, my liege.

    Consult the Book of Armaments!

    Armaments, chapter two, verses nine through twenty-one.

    And Saint Attila raised the hand grenade up on high, saying, "O Lord, bless this thy hand grenade, that with it thou mayst blow thine enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy." And the Lord did grin. And the people did feast upon the lambs and sloths, and carp and anchovies, and orangutans and breakfast cereals, and fruit-bats and large chu...

    Skip a bit, brother...

    And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out! Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it.


  2. its been fun, but im just taking up space now, eh?

    nearly 3 years now, if you round up, i've been a part of this clan if you count the inactivity that is, but every moment was filled with ecstatic giggles and autistic moments (mostly from me). i've seen alot of people (jpie, diamonde, caleb, obata, ohstopyou, murphy, and armin, to name a few) go, and ALOT of people (tatost, bagel, and a bunch of other people i literally cant list) come in. through it all there were people who stuck here the whole time, and it really was a blast being a part of the family even if i did janal the frick out of it.

     

    you people probably dont even remember me which is even more hilarious. but this is it, see ya nerds.

     

    (you normies, janal was a guy who basically AFK'd for staff and got away with it. @Janal)

     

    (here are some tags so this is seen by anyone who cares, i don't want a ruckus in the comments though. also putting this is shoutbox for reasons.) @Tatost @Thunder @Shadower @Vacindak @Spoopy @Skeletal @bagel

    Sad to see you go after all of this time.

    Have fun in real life my dude.


  3. Game Name: The Binding Of Isaac: Rebirth (by Edmund McMillen)

    Platform: Windows, OS X, Linux, Playstation 4, Playstation Vita, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, New 3DS, iOS, and Wii U

     

    Time Spent: 1000+ Hours

    Do you recommend? Yes.

     

    What you rate the game: 10.1

     

    Initial Thoughts: This game came out on November 4, 2014. My first thoughts seeing this game was complete and utter excitement because I had loved the first game and the DLC Wrath of the Lamb, even looking at the reviews on it I saw that it was a great game with a lot of people giving it amazing reviews. Most game critics gave this game an 8 or a 9 with IGN giving it a 7.5. With the first game in the series thought to be the best indie game ever that made me wonder what Rebirth would be like.

     

    Pros:

    The game starts off with an intro that explains most of the backstory to this game so you can actually understand why your character is going through this hell to begin with.

    The game starts you off with a character select screen that looks like this

    You have 2 characters unlocked (Isaac, Magdalene) with every other one locked (Cain, Judas, ???, Eve, Samson, Azazel, Lazarus, Eden, The Lost)

    Most of these characters are easy to get with a bit of playing with the exception of The Lost.

     

    The game starts you off with 6 floors to go through that are the Basement 1 & 2, The Caves 1 & 2, and The Depths 1 & 2.

    There are bosses on the end of each floor that get harder as you go on.

    After you beat the game once or twice you get new floors to go through that are the Womb, The Cathedral, The Chest, Sheol, and The Dark Room.

     

    Once you beat the game even more and more it unlocks more floors and eventually gives you this achievement.

    This unlocks alternatives to the floors you have already gone through and they are The Cellar, The Catacombs, Necropolis, and Utero.

    This provides a lot of shit to do for a while as you can start getting used to these new floors and enemies in them.

     

    This game also tracks your progress on characters for what rooms you have beaten.

    This goes only on the character you beat it on so it provides an incentive to play every character just to get each and every one of these "notes" on that character.

     

    Now to talk about the DLC's for this game, Afterbirth and Afterbirth+

    Afterbirth came out in October 30, 2015. Everyone that played Rebirth and the little community behind it never expected this because we had been told it would keep being delayed for a long long time.

    Then Afterbirth+ came out on January 3rd, 2017 in which the same thing happened as Afterbirth.

    Combining both of these The Binding Of Isaac: Rebirth got 183 new items added to the pool, 52 new trinkets, 7 new bosses, 3 new endings to the game, 12 new transformations, Greed Mode, seeds, 10 new challenges, daily challenges, and countless new monsters. There was much more added but I have gotten much too used to the new DLC's that I have forgotten those new changes.

     

    In Afterbirth a new mode was added that was called "Greed Mode" that really focuses on the concept of a shop based mode.

    Waves of enemies come at you on a timer after you hit a button in the middle of the room and if you hit the button again it will stop the waves of enemies coming at you at the cost of 1/2 of a heart.

    a68.media.tumblr.com_1b037cf3565a36685d5e9682710cf798_tumblr_inline_ntly6ktzqs1rq0wgw_400.gif.0ab1e3a4f2242654997cd89758484191.gif

    At most you have 11 waves on each floor in which there are 7 floors to go through.

    For each wave of enemies you fight you get money to spend on in the shop to get items, hearts, keys, bombs, etc.

    Once you go through 6 of the floors you get to fight Ultra Greed,

    In this fight you start off fighting one of the Basement bosses, Monstro.

    The cool thing about this fight is, however fast your DPS is, it scales Ultra Greeds health to go along with that so you can't just EZGG your way through the fight, it actually takes skill.

    Ultra Greed has an assortment of moves with all of them having some sort of connection to money.

    Yeah thats kinda it.

    Well anyway

     

    Now for the fun part, all of the items.

    In the original game there were 341 items, in Afterbirth there were 436 items, and in Afterbirth+ there is a grand total of 504 items.

    There are amazing items combinations that you can do with all of these items.

    My personal favorite is Brimstone + Rubber Cement + Spoonbender which can do this

    After you have EVERY SINGLE ITEM at least ONCE.

    You get this achievement.

    Cons:

    This game can be hard.

    There are enemies that are just gimmicky that I fucking hate

    agyazo.com_174c8bf335df9b5b51ed3e52b76d85b6.png.aa2db6f741c878cc2c4844b2a00fcaae.png

    Fuck these enemies.

     

    Also there is a hard mode which makes all "Champions" (colored enemies) do double damage to you.

    This game had a lot of luck involved, if you keep getting shitty items over and over again you arent going to be finishing that run unless you have a lot of time and skill.

     

    Another con is that this game is super religious

    The game is basically based around Religion and Christianity.

    Every single Character is someone from the Bible and if you look more into the lore of the game you will see that EVERYTHING IS INVOLVED WITH RELIGION. :(

     

    Final Thoughts:

    This is my favorite indie game of all time, nothing has ever come close to it. This game is so random and replayable people have played it for over 7k hours and even made youtube channels surrounding it. I have only had this game on console but I plan on paying another 30 dollars just to get it on PC and if I ever get a Switch im buying it on that as well. I started playing this game the second it came out and it has not disappointed me yet. The synergies of items you can get and all of the bosses/new DLC's just keep making me come back to this game over and over again. Its soundtrack is so nice and this game altogether is comparable to a triple A game. This game wont be worked on anymore as most of the bugs have been fixed and there are no more DLC's coming out for it. A new game that is based off of one of the items in this game is coming out called "The Legend of Bumbo."

    There is so much about this game I haven't covered in this review.

    This is my 3rd favorite game. It's a really good game.


  4. I feel like maybe we can have the stun stay if we can still have the stun but not at a max stun rate (standing still and not being able to move). If that is possible i think that should be fine due to cooldown and still being effective. Other than that i don't know if we can have it.

    I don't think we should straight out just remove them, but if the stun didn't last as long as it does I think it would be ok. Not sure if DL's can do that though

    @Vexx @Bello

    Is this possible?


  5. As I have said before this power-up will not help populate the server at all as it is STILL way too op.

    Even with the smaller "homing" hitbox it can still bonk someone for a very long time because it can get stuck behind them as the walk and the second it goes in that "homing" hitbox it stays homing on that person so basically if that hale is walking and a ball gets thrown at him it will to the "ultra" stun or something like that which results in a 10-20 second stun. In this time you can take most of hales health down.

    You can throw about 5-20 balls in a round depending on how much people are on.

    If we want to populate this server it has to be without homing balls considering it has such a high price and new players are going to look at it and get discouraged very very easily.

    With most of us having about 20k points to buy the playpoints perks we will be the only ones that ever have it.

    On average 3 points drop for someone in a round so if they wanted to save up for homing balls they would have to play over 3000 rounds just to get this perk.

    tl;dr its an op perk that can ruin fun and make people leave the server


  6. I felt it would be inappropriate to request the map when I don't play deathrun at all.

    After all, I would hate it if someone who never played tgh requested cyberpunk 3.0

    But we know the 2 other cyberpunks and you also had a gamebanana link which provides like 10 screenshots.

    also DR isnt as big as TGH so just randomly adding maps to test wont hurt anything
