Nice to know I won't be disappointed then, because that was literally the only thing I was afraid of.

It's worse tho. Graphics were way better in the first one and I don't mean pixels but just general impression. This one is darker and not in the good way (and I'm a huge horror/darkness fan so...) plus there's way more poop/vomit/bodily fluids and so on in this one. It doesn't bother me but why put more of that into it, like that's gonna make it a better game lol. They overdid it but I still enjoy it. I prefer the older one though but playing it with 30 FPS limit is a no go for me so I'm gonna stick with Rebirth.

It's not really strange. I encountered many similar opinions, especially in Steam Reviews.
And adjusting gamma more seems forced. In the first one I didn't have to do that because the style was different.

It's amazing. It's taking a little to get used to, since I spent 221 hours on the original game, but it definitely is not a let down! The added more stuff, changed shit, and just made it more fun! Really glad they decided to make another one.

Where are the cards? This game should give cards....
I also think, that's 2Kawaii4U. Why it's so kawaii?

For me its just too easy... I beat mom at 2nd run and almost hearth at 3rd run(hardest mode). It took my like 3weeks-1month to beat 1st mom at normal binding of the isaac. Some monsters are very easy to kill like chubby boss. Just run up and down. Bombs are overpowered, I mean range is much higher. There is so much fun indeedl in this game but I am dissapointed because I counted on a very hard game.

I was scanning the whole text to see if you wrote hard mode anywhere and I missed it at the very beginning...
Still though the hard mode isn't as easy as you say, introducing even harder one is a really bad idea. You need to remember that not everyone has the same skills and if the game was just stupidly hard it would rather discourage some players instead of inviting them in.

I was thinking the exact same thing. First BOI, it took me countless attempts to even get near the Mom stage, and only after 25+ hours did I get my first (and so far ONLY) win.
Played for an hour on release, and on my 3rd attempt I was able to make it to and beat Mom.
It does seem a bit easier but that could have just been a lucky run.

Here is the reason that can explain your feel about the game.
Everybody think Rebirth is more easier... this is not the case, at least in hard mode. You have a lot of practice in Isaac, this is why you find Rebirth too easy, you already know (perfectly ?) the game.

The game is awesome, I enjoy playing with a controller
I stopped playing after I died to the boss of the second to last floor, when I had a very OP set of items

I think it's great. In my opinion, it got harder (mom's heart wrecks me all the time), but it's mostly because there's no fps drop so you have to have quick fingers and I don't know how to handle some enemies so I lose hp pointlessly when fighting them.
What I don't like is that I can't use mouse to aim anymore, which is kind of a bummer as I was really used to playing it like that.
Also, have you guys tried Azazel? He wrecks hard, I think he might even be a little op.

i could have unlocked him on my first run, but i prioritised finishing the run instead of unlocking him (and dying)
i don't regret my decision but when i see my friend playing azazel i was instantly jealous - he's a badass motherfucker (azazel, not the friend :P)

I don't even remember how to unlock him, did it by accident :P No wiki yet, so it's all a little bit random to me.
I know there are time challenges for certain maps, but not sure how much time there's to clear the level and what would be the reward.

The new music sucks, it's generic and dull. Also my keyboard keeps bugging out at some point during every run (seems to be a very common problem through searching the steam forums). Other than that it's a pretty nice upgrade.

I have it on Vita myself (PS+) and can say it's pretty nice much better then the flash version which I couldn't stand to begin with.
To OP it's on both PS Vita & PS4 and I believe it's cross-buy as well with cross-save, I don't own a PS4 yet but I do purchase the free PS+ PS4 games each month so when I do get a PS4 in March of next year (with Final Fantasy Type 0 HD) I'll have enough free PS4 games to play. I have no intention of buying it on Steam.

Is it just me or is rebirth easier? The original one is so damn difficult I couldn't even do anything but I found it a good challenge. This one was a little bit meh and boring, almost.

Only ran through it once, it was on normal I think? Didn't look too closely. I think I got to Caves 2 or 3? I lasted ~15 minutes in that one run.

15 minutes is definitely not a good amount of time to judge this new BoI. Probably the first part is slightly easier, but you'll have to understand that for the veterans of the original game the Hard mode is where the real challenge is. Also, as others have said, after Mom the game becomes harder. The Heart is now a bullet-hell boss (McMillen wanted that for the original too, but couldn't because of the limits of Flash) and after that there's a lot of new content, with new bosses and new endings.
Trust me, you didn't even scratch the surface. Probably you're barely seeing the surface. :D

I haven't even finished the first one omgoodness.. 1st Dec is when I will be back to conquer the world with some of my tears. Well that was the first impression while waiting for dinner XD Can't wait for finals to be over to try and finish it hehehe. Kudos to the veterans who managed to finish on hard too.

Yeah I know that, but the impression for playing rebirth the first time was easier than playing the original for the first time. Perhaps I am used to the controls and how to avoid some of the monsters compared to not knowing anything in the first one.
Comment has been collapsed.
your account doesn't seem to have any playtime recorded...
anyway, whether it's easier or not depends on what items you got - case in point, i'm a veteran of 100% completion for the first isaac, and:
i beat mom (not the heart) on my first go since i got an awesome item
10 hours later, i have 28 deaths and only 2 mom's heart kills
mom's heart is a lot more difficult now - where it last time mainly summoned waves of monsters, it's now a proper bullet curtain boss

Played it on my brother's PS4, so no time recorded on my steam account.
I didn't even get to meet mum for the first one T^T I will be back to conquer after finals! >:)
Also probably because I haven't gotten that far, but overall impression was it slackened, kinda?

Who else is excited about this game? I just noticed it's free this month on PS4 for PS Plus members, I'm fine with playing it on there, however will be buying it on Steam when I have the money.
