I have it on ps4 and am looking forward to the new content as I have collected all items/endings/unlockables in the base game. Hopefully they will not have glitchy trophies this time, as a completionist that is a big concern for me.

This is going to be incredible.... this game has to be one of my all time favorites when it comes to combining diversity of play with time of the average game. I managed to get all of the cheevos for Rebirth, and I will look forward to doing the same for Afterbirth.
I'm also really intrigued by the daily runthroughs.... I actually enjoy doing the Spelunky daily run still, but if Afterbirth is done right, I can see that replacing my daily splurge... (:

Greatly looking forward to greed mode as it's far too common to get a garbage tier run.

Has there been any info on how the new character will play? Sounds like higher at the damage scale, but they already have the blue or black heart characters....

Oooh, sounds interesting. The 'blind' challenge runs were usually the harder ones.
When does it actually open for pre-order...? I don't see it on Steam yet... *sniff*

Oh man I am exceedingly excited by this news! Having played almost 1,000 hours of Binding of Isaac Rebirth I am really looking forward to this expansion. With all these new additions I can easily see wringing another 1,000 hours or more out of the game! GET HYPE!

Double post cuz I can't edit my non-login message made during phone.
But one thing I would like to see but I guess it's too late is some kind of choice mechanic. I notice that the celler levels for example are significantly more difficult than the basement ones (or is that just me? Pretty sure they're just plain harder though). I mean it's not like they are super hard per say or whatever. Just that in the celler I find I have to really concentrate and play extra careful (especially with rooms with lots of rocks and spiders that hide behind rocks) in order to no hit a floor, but the basement is practically a given.
I THINK other room styles are also supposed to be like this but I don't really recall any of them being so except for womb/whatever the other one was called. Where I find the other one frequently has those annoying red mole things that seem perfectly capable of popping up without warning at all and firing a triple shot which seems like bs sometimes when they pop up right under you (and you don't even get a rumbling animation or something under you beforehand).
So basically, unless it just is me and they are equally difficult, I think the player should be able to opt to choose a harder room intentionally for tweaked rewards or something. Maybe the boss will drop a choice between 2 items instead of 1 or something.

I didn't pre-order yet.. becuase I'm a cheap %#@%#.
I may eventually but I don't see why I should just yet when sales may come about.
There are after all plenty of games I want to buy still that I cannot afford. I mean I can afford to get some, but not all, and I wait for a deal for all so I can get/support more =P.
I'm curious though, I rather like Binding of Isaac's gameplay concept. But i'm not a fan of the garbage pail kid style intentionally hideous artwork. I'd kill for a similar game with traditional beautiful fantasy art.

I'd kill for a similar game with traditional beautiful fantasy art. Unfortunately, I have not found such a game. A Wizard's Lizard tries to be similar (and borrows a number of graphical aesthetics from Zelda: LttP), but I can't recommend it. Its pacing is way too slow, its random generator is a tiny fraction of Isaac and gets stale fast, and I didn't find the world and setting to be interesting at all. Would be curious if there are other suggestions. I've tried a lot of games, but none with the same qualities as Isaac... |

I didn't pre-order yet.. becuase I'm a cheap %#@%#. I may eventually but I don't see why I should just yet when sales may come about. There will be bigger sales of course... eventually. But I wouldn't expect them anytime soon after the expansion releases. Back when TBoI: Rebirth people were throwing a hissy fit about the pricetag being $15 normal, $10 with pre-order discount (yes, really) and saying they'll wait because "it'll be discounted more, soon" (despite McMillen clearly saying it won't). I don't think I saw the game dropping under that $10 to this day, and I expect the expansion will be the same story. Edit: Why the hell did I look on the steam forums for Rebirth. Of course there are people complaining that the expansion is not worth the money and McMillen is a sellout. FML. |

Not as bad as people comparing Trails in the Sky SC to being the next duke nukem forever because it's been delayed for only a half year... yeah.
