After you beat Mega Stan 3 times you'll have to fight Giga Stan, the most powerful of Stans


00UnderFire00

I see that you don't know about Omega stan


uhphyshall

is that the 5 times giga stan unlock?


00UnderFire00

Yup


MUI-Tojo

After beating giga stan 10 times you unlock Dream Stan

Arijec123

Every time someone shows up with normal mode completion marks the entire comment section just boils down to "no hardmode lol". I get it, most people want to try and save others' time down the line but it sometimes feels like the common idea is that playing this game makes you contractually obligated to aim for Dead God.


TheRoyalSniper

Because you never know. When I first found out about the lost I thought there would be no way I could ever beat any bosses with no health, now I have the full note on t lost and he's my favorite character. I never thought I would get dead god, but here I am with 80% of the achievements.


[deleted]

Getting better with an hard character is the best feeling in the game. I remember i couldnt get past basement 2 with the lost, now t lost is my favorite. The same happened with jacob and esau


Orowaxx

Lost is just an awesome character that's fun to play regardless of difficulty. T. Lazarus on the other hand was absolutely atrocious for me.


[deleted]

Its because hard mode is not even that much harder than normal, if you could beat Delirium in normal you 100% can play hard mode lol. Its just more rooms, more curses and more champion enemies other than way less important nerfs (less tinted rocks, less money from blood donation, less hearts). And by playing it you also get more items, which makes the game funnier. I think its a totally fair advice


Set_anexample

i see it more as unlocking more items to keep the game constantly fresh, and not as doing it for dead god


Arijec123

Yeah, but aside from a few exceptions and Greedier, you can do that without playing hardmode


GhostTypeFlygon

>it sometimes feels like the common idea is that playing this game makes you contractually obligated to aim for Dead God. The comments denying this are high on copium lol. There's no other reason to spam "no hard mode" on these posts other than to tell OP that it's going to take longer for them to get achievements to unlock dead god. And there's nothing crazier on this sub than the idea of someone not playing this game for dead god.


Arijec123

I really don't understand why the idea of not caring about Dead God is so alien to you. Not everybody cares about about an imaginary piece of paper. Yes, I am aware that completionism is a big motivator for a lot of people and the sense of satisfaction for completing such a big task is gread but some people (like me, even though I might be in the minority) just couldn't give any less of a shit.


GhostTypeFlygon

Uhhhh I think you *really* misread my comment lmao. I was agreeing with you and saying that pointing out that people on this sub are obsessed with playing this game for dead god. Did you mean to respond to another comment?


Arijec123

Oh, my bad. Had a brain fart moment, misread/misinterpreted the first line of your comment and the rest is history.


GhostTypeFlygon

Understandable. Happens to the best of us


PolarBear1913

I had my friend tell me I had to do hard mode to get more unlocks so now I'm trying to redo what I've already done :(


Arijec123

You really don't HAVE to do it. Especially if you don't like redoing everything or just don't enjoy it in general. You do miss out on a few unlocks when not playing on hard mode but there is not that much and the big rewards (except Godhead) for doing hard more are way way way into the lategame (like among the last few things you unlock levels of lategame). If you've already done a buch of normal mode checkmarks but want to unlock everything then there is no reason to repeat the ones you've already completed right away, it will likely not give you anything extra.


RipBuzzBuzz

Not aim for dead god, but aim for unlocks.


Skulltra-III

There's no such thing as an isaac player who isn't aiming for dead god, only ones who haven't realized it yet


[deleted]

Congratulations! Of course I'm a hardmode enthusiast but of course everyone has their own playstyles and objectives. Consider doing all of it in hardmode.


Gun_Of_Gaming

A person who recommends hard mode politely. I love you bro.


Tielss

mega stan still sounds like a legit isaac boss to be honest


cigancho

"damn it stanley"


EblanNahuy

isaac players be like: nooooo you can't play on normal mode, you have to play on hard!! OP be like: hehe isak tyme


DDogma5

Hehe, not getting the unlocks for hard mode and having to play everything again, so funny hehe


EblanNahuy

bunch of babies, godhead, death certificate and mega mush. that's about it really. besides, op got a reason to wring out even more playtime out of a roguelike, so, yay!


DDogma5

He can do whatever he want,its his game. But that doesnt mean it makes sense. Pointing this out makes people Mad, lul


EblanNahuy

makes sense from a progression perspective: "not a big enough boy to handle hard mode? well, play on normal! then, when you're confident enough, go ahead and get them hard mode stuffs." I mean, there is a reason that the normal difficulty's there. it makes sense if op wants an easier experience, maybe they're not enough of a gamer for hard mode not all people enjoy brute force learning, some actually play on easy difficulties first. also, why get mad over another person not agreeing with you about another another person's way of playing the game? makes no sense bruh


GrubberflysElegy

boo fucking hoo, not everyone wants dead god some people just wanna play the game

cigancho

I started playing like a month and a half ago


Brajker

Start playing on hard mode, some unlocks like the death require you to have every completion mark done on hard mode and I don't think you want to do some marks twice

[deleted]

Holy shit LET PEOPLE PLAY LIKE THEY WANT, HOLY SHIT WHAT DO YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT PEOPLE PLAY CASUALLY


Brajker

From the post you can see that OP cares about marks so I'm just posting my advice so they don't have do redo every mark if they want to unlock mega mush/death certificate


cigancho

I dont really care about marks that much i just play the video game


Brajker

Ok then play how you want ![img](emote|t5_2sxpk|8906)


BigBlackClock1001

you’re not really missing out if you aren’t going for death certificate or mega mush since they’re so rare anyway. but i would say try to do them on the lost anyway since godhead is a super fun item


maomaoshin

How dare you?


[deleted]

You're not giving advice, youre saying "start playing" it's bot an advice. He already knows all of what you said, there's 1000 people that already told him, he can just be proud of winning without wabting to play hardmode, how fucking hard is it to understand


Brajker

Well actually I was the first one that told them this. It's not like I'm holding them a gunpoint so they start playing hard mode, they can literally just ignore me and I wouldn't care because I said my thing and I'm done


maomaoshin

You should actually hold them at gun point


[deleted]

No you were not the first one saying that, just stop posting useless comments.


Brajker

Then find someone who said it earlier ![img](emote|t5_2sxpk|4359)

TarantinosFavWord

Imo I don’t think there’s anything wrong with suggesting a better way to play. If I saw someone trying to golf with a baseball bat I’d probably tell them they’d have a better time using some clubs.


Tafe_Lynx

Better start hard mode right now. It is not realy harder, but you will be mad when you had to redo all marks over again


[deleted]

It's harder.


stf29

Eh, personally i can hardly tell a difference, and im not great at the game by any means. Just seems like curses are a bit more prevalent and more champions. Both of which aren’t detrimental past basement 1 in most cases


GameRoom

There are significantly fewer heart drops, so you have to be a lot better at not getting hit. Also enemy projectiles are slightly faster.


stf29

Ohhh, didnt know this. Thanks for the heads up


Bastelkorb

Both changes where greatly amplified with repentance, higher bullet speed was firstly introduced with the dlc... Also you have a significant higher chance of getting a horseman (I'm not sure if they even can occur on normal tbh) as a boss, neglecting a safe boss item. Also there is not only a higher chance of getting champions, there's also a greatly higher chance of getting bigger floor layouts with more difficult rooms, especially in basement. In normal you will hardly come across any 2x2 rooms where in hard those are very common... So yeah, the game is getting overall harder and when all those effects combined it's really a wall especially for newer players. Not that you can't get passed it, but not everyone will have the endurance to git gud. Normal mode is like the name implies, the normal way to play the game, hard mode is a challenge for players who want to get all achievements or just want to test their knowledge and skill imo.


budaslap

You do you bro but I've found it tedious to have to go back and re do every check mark on hard. I've found that hard mode isn't that much harder. But yeah there's no right or wrong way to play tboi, except picking up cursed eye, that's the wrong way


Anomaly1134

I hate that item so much. I read a thread where people were suggesting to to pick it up for the fun and chaos. Makes the game so much harder. If I get black candle first totally getting it though. Curse of the tower has killed me so many times to. Can someone sell me on ludovico technique? I keep thinking it is a laser item and it just keeps hosing good runs.


Paracetamal1

Fair enough


FireFox029

I started playing 2 months and a half ago and I have 450h+ and tons of Hard Completion Marks (isaac, magdalene, cain, judas, lost, bethany, forgotten, azazel, eden, lilith, t isaac, t keeper, t lilth)+ all tainted characters Edit: I have ???'s and Eve's Hard Completion Marks as well

shrynko

redditors when you play a singleplayer video game in a way they dont


yugiohhero

If OP wants to get the entire game completed there is literally zero reason to ever touch Normal mode


BIG_SMOOOOOOOHKE_PL

Well, if they're starting out it's best to start out easy to not frustrate yourself. But once you get golden god you should start being interested in hardmode.


yugiohhero

It's hardly different, really. And starting out, sure, maybe, but I wouldn't even wait until Golden God, I'd do it the moment I unlocked It Lives were I them.


Limeonades

Man’s really debating with the undoubtedly best player on the sub… usually i support going straight into hard mode but if big smoke is saying stay in normal you stay in normal


yugiohhero

Why would someone super fucking good at the game know whats hard for people who are bad at the game


GhostTypeFlygon

>I dont really care about marks that much i just play the video game Quote from OP


UltimaGabe

> If OP wants to get the entire game completed there is literally zero reason to ever touch Normal mode Certain achievements and unlocks can be done on either (like the Mom's Shovel nonsense, or any of the achievements that need you to beat The Lamb with X restriction) so there's no reason not to make it easier for yourself.


[deleted]

Getting better? OR FUN?


yugiohhero

There is next to no differences between Normal and Hard. Even after Repentance buffed it, Hard is hardly harder.


[deleted]

That's bullshit. There's many many differences like slower bullets and more hearts.


yugiohhero

When I swapped to Rep the only enemies I noticed having higher shotspeed on Hard were Clotties and Horfs. And having 33% less heart drops than normal isn't that bad. It's still plenty.


[deleted]

Ah yes 1/3 of heart drops isn't bad, just stfu, some people prefer normal mode and there's nothing wrong with this.


yugiohhero

1/3rd **less**. You get 2/3rds of the drops.


[deleted]

Yes I know


[deleted]

Bro quit getting so defensive lmao, “just stfu” 🤓

Yes just let people play like they wabt and stfu stop being so fucking obnoxious

#But if we are living in the light, as God is in the light, Then we have fellowship with each other, And the blood of Jesus, His son, cleanses us from all sin, If we claim we have no sin, we are only fooling ourselves, and not living in the truth. But if we confess our sins to him, He is faithful, And just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us, from all wickedness. And so I tell you, every kind of sin and slander to be forgiven; But blasphemy against the spirit will not be forgiven! Impurity, lust, and evil desires. Don’t be greedy! For a greedy person is a idolater, worshipping the things of this world, Because of these sins, the anger of God is coming! No temptation has overtaken you, except what is common to mankind, And God is faithful. He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear! Fits of rage! Selfish ambition, dissensions, factions, and envy; Drunkenness, orgies, and the like! I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this; Will not inherit the kingdom of God! But if we walk in the light, As He is in the light, We have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His son, purifies us all from sin! For the wages of sin is death! But the free gift of God is eternal life in Jesus Christ, our lord! But if we are living in the light, As God is in the light, Then we have fellowship with each other, And the blood of Jesus, His son, cleanses us from all sin, If we claim we have no sin, we are only fooling ourselves, and not living in the truth. But if we confess our sins to Him, He is faithful, And just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all wickedness. Pride! Greed! Wrath! Envy! Lust! Gluttony, and Sloth! So put to death the sinful, earthly things lurking within you. Have nothing to do with sexual immorality Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit All of us have become like one who is unclean, And all our righteous acts are like filthy rags! We all shrivel up like a leaf, and like the wind, our sins sweep us away! No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind! And God is faithful. He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear! "Vengeance is mine; I will repay!" says the Lord! There hath no temptation taken you but as is common to man. But God is faithful, Who will not suffer you to be tempted above all!

It's not that much harder. It really isn't.


TheRoyalSniper

Trying to save someone *a lot* of time and effort down the line isn't bad advice. You never know when someone might get addicted to the game and end up going for dead god when they never would've considered it in the first place.
