Suffice to say, I’ll be waiting before I muster the courage to tackle Ultra Greedier. I may have beaten Hush without taking one hit, but I barely had a single heart left when I managed to take Ultra Greed down. It took me many many attempts to get the right mix of items to have a chance to defeat the avaricious behemoth, and even then it was a close thing. It’s not an exaggeration to say that Ultra Greed was more of a challenge for me than Mega Satan (which I also beat). If you chicken out, you’ll get fewer coins and, thus, have less of a chance to beat the big boss of Greed Mode, named Ultra Greed. If you defeat them without breaking sequence, you’ll get more and more coins which you can spend to get additional items. Each floor you get one freebie item and then press the central button to summon progressive waves of foes. Turns out that was a wise decision, since Greed Mode is tremendously difficult and rewarding. Granted, Greed Mode was available in Afterbirth, but I felt I needed to acquaint myself with that before tackling Greedier Mode. That said, Afterbirth+ didn’t change things too drastically, probably realizing that if it’s not broken, don’t fix it. Thankfully, that applies to the graphics as well, which are just as twisted and comical as ever. I can’t quite put my finger on why, suffice to say it seemed to be a little too Metal for my particular tastes. Areas like the Necropolis still sound delightfully ominous, but the alteration to the standard boss track irked me somewhat. They have also tweaked the soundtrack in the game, with somewhat mixed results. You’ll also come across enemy spawning portals, which can quickly become a nuisance if you don’t take them out STAT. Floors now also come interspersed with tiny and huge L-shaped sections that contribute to some fun battles against the hordes of enemies. For instance, occasionally when you are in an item room you will find a machine that lets you spend coins to shuffle which item you get. While the base game still plays pretty much as expected, they have thrown in little tweaks to keep things fresh. Afterbirth+ also has new items, bosses, pets, challenges, achievements, characters and just basically more of everything. These new areas are a distinct challenge and each have their own set of foes to face. There are also new areas like the Dank Depths, Flooded Caves, Blue Womb and The Void. For one thing, there are a bunch of new enemies, such as the utterly terrifying living statue called Stoney. Before that, I had reached the point where I had almost accomplished everything in Rebirth, and the game was becoming somewhat monotonous, but Afterbirth+ quickly fixed that. It’s important to note that I went from playing Rebirth to Afterbirth+ for the purpose of this review, which means I had to take some time to familiarize myself with the many new features. The question then is just how good is Afterbirth+, and did it satisfy my lofty expectations? I’ve been excited about this DLC since it was announced a couple years ago, and it has proven to truly be the definitive version of the Binding of Isaac experience. For me, that game is easily The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+. That one game that they would take with them if stranded on a remote location, knowing that it would provide sufficient variety to keep them from losing their marbles.
