I’ve been pretty tired lately. Life has been hectic and I’ve had a lot on my mind. Even writing articles has been a bit of a problem. Now, after five years of writing daily, I’m actually facing writers block. But in the mean time, I’ve been looking for music to listen to. Mostly for me to fall asleep. And now that I have a nice pair of headphones I can wear in bed, I can finally get some better sleep. Funnily enough though, as I was making a Spotify playlist, I realised that, well, some of the songs I listen… [Continue Reading]

The Binding of Isaac’s Repentance Ending is… Curious…

April 21, 2021April 13, 2021 Medic 0 Comments Binding of Isaac, lore

With the arrival of the Repentance DLC, the Binding of Isaac is now basically a finished game. Sure, the developers said that about Afterbirth+. But the fan-made Antibirth mod was such a hit that the developers had to tie it all together for one final DLC. However, a big part of Repentance is that it gives us a final ending for the Binding of Isaac.

Medic’s 5 Most Beloved Minecraft Music Tracks

March 28, 2021March 22, 2021 Medic 0 Comments Binding of Isaac, listicle, minecraft, music

Minecraft’s music is amazing. While most games have kinda heavy tracks that play constantly, Minecraft’s music fades in and out. You’ll only ever catch a hint of music, before everything fades back to quiet. The only exceptions are the music discs, but you need to hunt those down. This means that the tracks kinda blend into one another. You can’t always tell songs apart. And, like most video game music, you often have to track down the songs themselves later. But thanks to technology (and me looking up the tracks), I actually know what these damn songs are called. Knowing… [Continue Reading]

The Binding of Team Fortress

January 14, 2021January 8, 2021 Medic 0 Comments Binding of Isaac, binding of medic, bullet hell, non-tf2, random, rogue-like

When I originally started writing this article, Afterbirth+ hadn’t come out yet. This DLC introduced modding and a Steam Workshop for the game Binding of Isaac: Rebirth. Like other games with modding capabilities, Afterbirth+ wouldn’t just inject new content into the Binding of Isaac, but it’d make the game last longer. After all, just look at Skyrim, with all its mods keeping the game on life support. At the time though, I was only considering purchasing the DLC. The thing that put me off was the fact that I’d need to purchase both Afterbirth AND Afterbirth+. And that, in my… [Continue Reading]

The Binding of Isaac: Four Souls – A Physical Game Based on a Video Game

January 3, 2019January 1, 2019 Medic 0 Comments Binding of Isaac, board game, card game

My brother loves everything related to the Binding of Isaac, and it’s one of the games he’s proud to have nearly perfectly completed. So when he heard of a board game kickstarter, of course he had to go and spend €50 on the game, which arrived just before Christmas. And it’s alright. The Binding of Isaac: Four Souls is a board/card game where four people can play as one of the characters from the Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth, using various items from the Binding of Isaac series. Players take turns attacking monsters by rolling dice and buying and using various… [Continue Reading]

Why Greed Mode Sucks

May 1, 2018April 26, 2018 DapperApples 0 Comments Binding of Isaac, greed mode

Every expansion to The Binding of Issac had a sort of theme to them. With Wrath of the Lamb, it was spiders. Spider enemies and some spider items, among other things. Rebirth gave us poop enemies. With Afterbirth came Greed stuff, after the Greed miniboss. Head of the Keeper, a new playable Greed character that’s next in a spiral to create an even worse character to suffer through, and the ever wonderful Greed Mode. Greed Mode is an alternative way to play Issac, in a sort of quick and distilled version of the game. Every floor is the same, a… [Continue Reading]

There’s always noise in my head. Always someone talking. Always a conversation. Always a mess of things. There’s almost always some music there as well. The noise doesn’t stop until I go to sleep. But sometimes the noise is so loud that I can’t sleep. So I need some nice, calm, real world music to listen to. So here are five songs which calm me down, and I hope do the same for you. 5. Secunda, TESV Skyrim Soundtrack This song is a fairly obvious one, a track I mentioned in my list of video game songs that I enjoy.… [Continue Reading]

Medic’s Favourite Video Game Songs

December 15, 2017December 12, 2017 Medic 0 Comments Binding of Isaac, league of legends, music, Skyrim, soundtrack, Team Fortress 2, warframe

I have weird tastes in music. Although I generally dislike things like pop and jazz, I’ll happily listen to a lot of different types of rock and metal music. I am a fan of Radiohead, Queens of the Stone Age, Crowded House, Linkin Park and Disturbed all at the same time. I actually saw Radiohead live when I was 11, and I reviewed their last album here. When it comes to video game music, it’s not as bad, a lot of the things I like have common themes about them. Unfortunately, I have zero musical talent nor do I have… [Continue Reading]

Lore in the Binding of Isaac

December 1, 2016December 19, 2016 Medic 0 Comments Binding of Isaac, lore, story

I’ll be honest, I really, really fucking suck at the Binding of Isaac. I’ve never beaten the Caves in the original flash game, and the closest I’ve gotten is to the Mom fight in Rebirth. At first glance, the game looks easy, simple controls, simple goals, things like that. As you look deeper, it gets more and more difficult. If you want everything, you need to go through hell your mom’s womb and down into the depths of the Chest and the Dark Room. The game even warns you that things are going to get worse, as you beat Mom,… [Continue Reading]

Change is (mostly) Good but Tearful

June 21, 2016 Medic 0 Comments Binding of Isaac, change, opinions

Longest day today. Now it all gets shorter. Anyway. I’ve owned The Binding Of Isaac, the original flash game, on Steam for a while. Only really played it a little, but I always adored it. The art had its own style, a thick, bordered style that I’ve often used for my own art. The layout was simple. The HUD took up a large amount of the screen but showed you everything clearly, even the seven billion soul hearts you had. Times were quiet and simple. I never got very far on the original Binding of Isaac. I never managed to… [Continue Reading]
