RPG in rebirth, and out of all achievements for rebirth / afterbirth i'm at 83%.
They definitely made the lost a lot more playable with this DLC given he now starts with D4 and spectral tears (and holy mantle too, for a price), so pouring all that time & blood/sweat/tears into getting the lost unlocks in vanilla rebirth sort of made me sad
But now Godhead is a lot harder to unlock too, so I guess it all balances out.
At first I was really upset about them using damage scaling to health on Ultra Greed / Hush, but now that i've sank a lot more time into Afterbirth (like 40 hours at least), I can say I think it's a good thing. It makes you appreciate the bosses a lot more, imo.
My favorite character is actually Samson. I really like his unlocks and I feel in terms of balancing, he's very well done. IV Bag Samson to this day is still one of my favorite 'synergies'
I also really like Eden. Always a fun time with him.
I love Lusty Blood for bringing back Vanilla Samson too.
The new sacrifice room mechanic is also really cool. If you get like really powerful on an earlier floor, and have health to spare, you can get a mega satan kill without going through the trouble of angel rooms (which are a lot worse in afterbirth than they were prior imo)
i really love this game. also the 109 ARG was some of the coolest stuff i've ever seen. Reading that stuff happen live was an experience i'll never forget
