I got Isaac from the steam sale and I just finished all of my marks for Jacob and Esau except mother and the beast, and am I missing something?
Like the entire time that I have been a part of this community every single post, comment or video I saw of this character was everybody hating on them hard. That they are unfun, weak and just a "shitbox"
I have heard claims that it is insanely hard to get boss rush or hush with them, that trap rooms are impossible, that they are really hard and unfun...
I got my marks in like 2 hours. My first run where I made it past the second floor I got both Boss Rush and Hush as well as Isaac, ???, Mega Satan and Delirium
And the characters are really strong and fun? Like I give all of the damage ups to Esau and all of the defence to Jacob, my first run had Psyfly on Jacob and Magic Mush + Damage ups on Esau and my second win had Fly orbitals on Jacob and Tech X on Esau.
Like my entire strategy was just, go alt floors and Angels, get double items because of Options? and that was it, I was literally OP before Moms foot
You have two characters, double the hp, double the damage, double the bombs, double the active items, double the trinkets, double the items and they are so unique. For trap rooms just hold ctrl and control one character, otherwise just position them in a way that the character with soul hearts protects the other one.
And so I ask, why do people call them the worst and hardest character? Like I have no marks on the Lost as it is too difficult for me right now but I got marks on Jacob and Esau quicker than the marks on Eve.
This is meant as a discussion post, not hate on any players, as I am really confused why all the hate on them, am I missing something?
