Due to only needing a single item/achievement until dead god, I wanted to finally share some of my thoughts on my favorite game of all time.
I find it very hard to sum up Isaac, as it's packed to the brim with content and things to talk about, so I'm going to keep it simple. To me, this game serves an incredibly important purpose in my life, as I've been playing it on and off since 2015 (ikr lol). But at the start of this year due to my roommate guiding me along the new additions into repentance, I was legit addicted up until the very end. Never has a game captivated and enthralled me throughout my 675 hours of playtime like this one has. It's crafted with insane amounts of love, passion, detail and especially fun. For me, it's a gaming experience that I'll remember and treasure for the rest of my life. I think the design philosophy of not seeing the full game until the very end is absolutely genius and made for a great reason to push forward and conquer even the most insanely difficulty challenges. Sure, I don't even think its a perfect game tbh, as some characters are incredibly frustrating and some items/enemies are horrible, but those are still aspects that I appreciate when looking at the full experience. Almost everything in this game is fine-tuned to perfection, and I'm so glad I got to experience it all. I love this game so much, and all the emotions/memories it provided me along the way, thanks edmund <3
also, the community is great, with lots of love being shown through mods and extra content which can add even MORE hours of playtime to an already massive game. Mods in general really help to personalize the whole game to your liking, giving you almost endless ways to play and experiment. I highly recommend this game if you enjoy difficult but rewarding challenges, as there's so, so much cool stuff to see.
