>>738101548Mewgenics is a much less accessible game. Brainlets bounced off of it. With Isaac, you can turn off your brain and play on heuristics alone. You can just draft a broken run by manipulating the game. But you can't guarantee you'll do well on any given run in Mewgenics. You'll get bad rolls on events, you'll get bad rolls on your level ups, and there's very little you can do to hedge against either, except for breeding cats with higher luck and innate rerolls. And neither solves the problem completely.You have to embrace fighting your way through a bad outcome if you want to enjoy Mewgenics, which isn't what most Isaac players want. Most Isaac mods exist just to break the game even more, and make winning more frequent.

>>738101684This is what it looks like when your thread is a "general" thread. A new thread is posted as soon as the last one falls off the board, the threads are made nonstop, for days or weeks or even months on end.The definition of a "general" according to the site rules, specifically /v/ rule 6:>"Generals"—long-term, recurring threads about a specific gameSo do not listen to anyone who tries to tell you that a "general" is only limited to specific types of threads that contain specific things, for they are wrong according to the rules of the site.

>Goofball vs superluckbegin shitstorm
IS KISSING MY SISTER SO WRONG
>>738108341Goofball is more widely applicable, but Super Luck is extremely powerful with the right items and passively benefits your run with better items in shops and event rewards. They're both very good.
>>738108341Goofball is better on classes with raw damage, superluck is better on classes with ailments. Superluck is also objectively better for item runs due to how much it affects drop RNG

>>738111272>charming an insta-kill bossYou are worse than Mimic Tear users will ever be at beating the game
>>738102671If bad luck is enough to make a game this unplayable this often, then it's a shitty game.The only reason people are playing it is because they're hooked on these retarded, overwrought psychological manipulation machines. Rogueshit and the malicious exploitation of players it allows has done more damage to gaming than literally anything else besides gacha.
>>738111630You don't need to win all the time for a game to respect your time. There are essentially no permanent negative consequences for losing. And runs don't even go on for that long.
I got a ton of completion marks to do and these sidequests available. Are any of them any worth? I really don't like doing these and only do them for the achievements, so if I can procrastinate doing these then I'll take that opportunity.
>>738111785
>>738111818absolutely none of the sidequests are worth it except storage locker cuz you get a bunch of rare items, but that requires you to never actually complete it
>>738109456>>738109891>reasonable, well articulated and correct answers about how different passives favor different playstylesBoooFight, you fucks
>>738111771>>738111823Luck is a stat you can manipulate in your favor, but you can't rule it out completely. Isaac was supposed to be a game about picking up items you didn't know anything about, getting a bad or weird one, and figuring out a way to play around it. But after enough exposure, everyone knows what everything does and how they interact. You don't get that Oh Shit moment anymore as players optimize the fun and challenge out of the game. Mewgenics is made to ensure that never quite stops happening. You're not doomed just because you got one bad roll on an event. You just need to strategize around it.Playing against the odds is fun, even if you lose.It's like Dwarf Fortress. You're not supposed to be able to succeed every time, and the process of struggling against being dealt a bad hand is where a very particular kind of fun lies.
>>738111971>setbacks with zero progress or learning is fun!
>>738112017You get some of your items back because of the corpse guy. If you're dying so much it's giving you grief, you must be getting most of them back by now, right?
>>738111858The detonator and the stopwatch are A+ tier items.The stopwatch can easily reach "you didn't beat the game" mode with the Butcher skill that resets your weapon and a some of the mana cost reduction items.It's weird because some of the items like the princess hat are total dogshit.
>>738111818Unlock sidequests before venturing Act 3 because new sidequests have chance to make the goal any area you been to. So if you get hard side quest and it tells you to take it to The Creator, you will kick yourself for not unlocking it sooner and getting easier goal.
>>738112017Nta but not every run is meant to cross out a cheevo. You need to earn them. If you can't handle challenge, just watch the cutscenes and ending from Youtube.
I hate modern players who pick hard difficulty or a hard game and are mortified the game doesn't hand them instant victory. What happened to allowing yourself fail and learn and improve? What is it with the current mindset about needing to succeed on your first try?I have 600h in Mewgenics and 3000h in Isaac

>>738112601This is the equivalent of "just pull up yer bootstraps!" boomer posting
>>738112692There isn't much learning to be done from failure in Mewgenics.It's a turn-based RPG with heavily implemented RNG.Sometimes the numbers are just not going to add up and there is nothing you can do about it.
>solo checkmarks dont care about difficultySo you can get them on normal and it'll still count?
>>738112843>>738112874I remember thinking Graveyard was hard and menacing when I first time got there. But then as I played more I learned how to play it.Then same happened with Desert. But after awhile it was walk in the park. Then Moon. And again, I learned. Act 3? All areas except for Jurassic started hard and imposing but then I just got gud.There been many anons who have faced challenges but refused to learn and adapt. For fuck sakes, there's an anon who bitched for 2 months about Spewer being too hard for him.
>>738112917Of course.
>>738112917Of course. Same with sidequests, there's no reason to do them in harder difficulties.
>>738112989>>738113023For some reason I thought I had to do impossible solos for max completion, thank fuck that's not the case. Normal mode solo is a cakewalk with powerup, this'll be done in a couple of hours. Thanks anons

>try to do some high difficulty runs for the first time>over half of the enemies are champions, constantly getting bonus turns with their increased movement rangeI don't really think I like this idea. It feels like careful positioning of your cats to constantly edge the enemies by staying out of their attack range after every attack is completely undermined since the enemy can and will just walk up towards you anyways since they can cover the entire map in just one turn.maybe I just need to git gud

>>738112984Turn-based RPG's are not skill based games, anon.Once you learn and remember all the interactions (or look them up beforehand), the rest of it comes down to grinding out your numbers to beat the enemy numbers.I've already beaten the game, but I don't have much motivation to grind out and finish it 100% because its just not very fun most of the time.
>>738118886>(or look them up beforehand)Ok, stopped reading there. Your opinion is discarded and placed in the trash. I'm ashamed to share this site with someone like you.
>>738118886>Turn-based RPG's are not skill based gamesIn yesterday thread a guy claimed Me Stone side quest being the 2nd hardest sidequest because he gave the stone to mage to act as mana feeder for the rest of the level 1 party and he got mad because anons pointed out how suboptimal his strategy was

>>738122205If you can afford it. Isaac has given me 3000h playtime. Mewgenics 600h and counting. With Mewgenics being, what, 30 bucks, so far I have paid 5 cents for each playing hour.If you can't afford it, you can pirate it, Edmun endorses pirating his games if you can't afford to pay for them.
>>738122205The OST itself is more than worth the game's price

Finally had a run where one of my cats just got malaria in the first event and honestly it wasn't as bad as people made it out to be. Since the cat ends up downed it doesn't eat your level ups, so isn't it essentially just a 3-cat run with upsides?
>>738124703Holy fuck I'm glad I didn't spoil the final boss theme for myself. "Dig your own grave" does not under deliver for a final boss theme. It definitely stands out as the best music in all pf act 3

I've noticed a very interesting interaction with the butterfly knife and Unrestricted. It re-checks for Unrestricted on each individual swing, so once you reach ~15 luck, you can go pseudo infinite as long as you don't get exceptionally unlucky. Could go insane with Weapon Proficiency. Killed Mother from full health in one turn with only 16 luck. Not sure if this is representative or if I just got unreasonably lucky.
These placeholder are so goofy. I like how it looks like the cat has 2 forks and is waiting for the food to be placed on the table
>>738122141if this cat sucks, I'll just make a new one...
>>738100535>>738101748
The game rolled all psychics so I decided to try a mono-class run. With the Glass Cannon, I don't have to move to damage things, and one of the cats rolled Braingeyser, which I doubled up with Skill Split and put his CHA to the negatives with Fish Necklace. Two of my other cats rolled Mind Meld, so the end result is me winning battles on Turn 1 cuz one cat just vomits progressively stronger sparkles up to 3 times a round.Throbbing Domain isn't even a concern, cuz Stem Cats can't divide faster than my sparkle volley.
>>738126978I once had psychic with upgraded tower mode.It's a blast.
>>738126978Did any enemies attack your party or did they die before even reaching you? Because that's seems quite strong for act1.I haven't tried any low CHA psychic yet, I almost never see equipment that reduces CHA.
>>738126212where do you even see the level editor?
>>738126978psychic with love song and a bunch of on-hit mutations is enough for meterrible to try breed and pass down because psychics actually hate charisma
>two monks with robo-vac>butcher with supersize me, slice and dice and buy catnip What a fun combo for act 3, the constant healing and money made the butcher a godsend.

I lost to Guillotina 3. gave away all my cats. I started multiple cycles of fighting her with the collarless strays you get at the last day if you have no cats and quitting it as lose as a small depressive meltdown.
>>738104502>>738100058Why do you care? just admit you hate this game instead of being a cowardly weasel. Worry not, one day these threads will stop, whether it be from people moving on, or you finally getting your wish. Apply to be a janny if you have such a big stick up your arse for rules.

>>738130904Just don't kill with that cat, or pray for a tinfoil hat.
>>738128458Basically none except bosses could tank the disgusting damage I was throwing. I went Act 1 Normal cuz I needed to finish the Jar quest and Glass Cannon (plus it was my first mono class run so I wasn't confident) and the idea of Fish Necklace to lower CHA just happened to click.The moment a reflective enemy appears it'll kill the run, so this is very risky on harder difficulties, but still possible to play around, I reckon.
>>738128778No idea, I found that image on the wiki

>>738115849The problem with the General rule is that pretty much every thread for a game is a "general: good" and they only become "general: bad" at a Mods' whims.So long as the people in a thread are talking about the game, it's characters and story, and whatever else is related around it and not ERPing, ritual posting, or talking about twitter drama, it should be fair game no matter how long people want to talk about a game. The retarded part of all this is when Jannies get so personally assblasted by a game that it becomes completely impossible to have a thread about it no matter how long it's been. Some CP spammer that kept targeting Touhou threads pissed off the mods on here so much that Touhou threads now get deleted on sight, and because of some retard there was nowhere where I could talk about the actual game part of Touhou 20 at launch. (/jp/ is mostly idolshit these days)
>>738136554""""Touhou""""fags have been spamming the board for literal years, and NONE of them have actually played the game.
