Repentance is more a game of synergies than its predecessors.
(Image credit: The Binding of Isaac / Anthony McGlynn) It's still helpful, but not the guarantee of success it once was. The same goes for over-powered pickups like Brimstone, one of the RNG holy grails. Some exploits have been tempered, like the way restocks can break the game (they're much rarer now). The wider buffs and nerfs in Repentance range from lowering invincibility effects across the board and making shops much less useful, to familiars having an increased firing rate, and weapons generally having shorter cooldowns. Repentance is as close as we're likely to get to a Binding of Isaac 2, and some aren't happy about the evolution.Ī lot of the consternation here comes from changes to the meta. A portion of dedicated players are less enthused about being on the backfoot. As someone who's played The Binding of Isaac on-and-off over the last decade, I'm comfortable starting from square one, and I always expect to have to relearn some of the basics every time I come back to it. The Isaac community is divided on whether this is a good thing. Repentance also disrupts just about every accepted strategy players have built up over the last several years. There are some 300 gameplay changes, according to YouTuber IsaacGuru. Repentance adds more than 100 new enemies, 5,000 new room layouts, 130 new items and much more. Now that Repentance is finally out, it's definitely gotten the Isaac community fired up.
