The Binding of Isaac - funny feces

[Absolute-Despair]

Youngins have literally just discovered that Edmund McMillen is into fucked up shit and "uncovered" the This Is A Cry For Help forum.

Also they really managed to undermine any point they were trying to make with that gay little plug and zoomerisms of theirs, why are they trying to make something they think is serious about themselves?

And of course had to format it in the best way possible, a gay-ass exposé document "archiving" the "journey" of uncovering it, complete with Discord screenshots discussing it with their zoomer pals.
As well as plugging in a discord rapper friend of the OP and his socials for some reason?

The motherfuckers name on half of the websites he put out games on was "bluebaby", and his whole shtick in the early days was dead baby jokes (which was the style at the time) along with a good 90% of everyone else on the internet. How anyone is just finding this out is beyond me considering blue baby is literally a fucking playable character in game and if you check the wiki it links to the first dead baby dress up game.

I do find it interesting that the doc was apparently made 7 months before it got posted and immediately after it got any traction the guy who made it started plugging his socials to try and ride off of it, who the fuck in their right mind finds a supposed rabbit hole of honest to God CSAM connected to one of the biggest indie game developers ever and immediately thinks "hmm, I should let everyone know I have a SoundCloud while I'm at it."???

Also unrelated but some shit came out against the guy who made the thing thing games a while back too and I haven't seen anyone mention it, I wonder if old flash devs/new grounds types from the early aughts getting "outed" is gonna become a trend sooner rather than later if it hasn't already.

This reminded me of the time when the K-Pop stans tried to cancel Joji for being Filthy Frank in the past lol

The "repentance" was McMillen repenting of having Mom as the antagonist, and making the REAL VILLAIN the MAN who made her how she is. It's literally the gayest, most DEI-coded thing he's done.

That assessment might hold weight if he became a boss in Repentence and we didn't get yet another version of Mom. The only thing that might suggest he was the real villain is that gay arguement you have to listen to in the Ascent every time, but that's also a stretch IMO because in it you hear that she becomes insane before he leaves. It's implied he's an alcoholic who can't handle pressure, but he's definitely not made out to be anywhere near as bad as Mom.

Damn, so you're telling me the guy known for being edgy was being edgy in the early 2000s?

Zoomers really don't have a perception of culture before 2019, do they?

(Still more forgivable than Tommy Refenes taking the Meat Boy IP and turning it to slop)

I'm surprised FNF hasn't sparked a bigger moral panic among Zoomers yet.

 

[Marche]

I hate zoomers so fucking much holy fuck.
Like half the jokes and references in the original issac are to stuff that was relevant before they were in school. The entire concept of a time existing before they did is such a bizarre concept to them.

 

[Tomboy Tuti]

This is extremely retarded and gay, why are people like this. Somebody should expose these people to mcmillens pre meatboy work, the this is a cry for help disk set had one page gag comics about suicide and STDs. There's also his cancelled game hitlers must die which was a game about you defeating hitler clones in a post apocalypse, when mcmillen tried to mess with cloning and high object counts in flash. A lot of newgrounds alums were unapologetically edgy till they became faggots. Mcmillen is one of those who's still edgy to some degree, somebody should cancel his faggot copartner tyler glaiel instead for sucking off hbomb and bluesky breadtube niggers.

I don't know about "edgy" guys, that's a lot of CP. I've read stories of dumb kids starting up forums around that time (2002-2004) and they had someone awake at all times scrubbing CP. One guy's moderator plan fell through, and he was up for several days straight checking every single image post.

 

[analrapist]

It's implied he's an alcoholic who can't handle pressure, but he's definitely not made out to be anywhere near as bad as Mom.

Legend of Bum-Bo also helps shift blame onto Dad, demonstrating his gambling problems, etc. The functional reality is stark: At a certain point, late in the game's lifecycle, Edmund went from being content with Mom being the Big Bad to trying to humanize Mom. The chief target for the blame shifting became Dad. These changes came deep in the game's life cycle, and while not a full Heel-Face Turn, is absolutely repentance (metanoia, the changing of the mind based on new information). Shifting blame from a female character to a male is a common trope in feminist fiction, ergo this is plainly DEI-coded on its face.

Mcmillen is one of those who's still edgy to some degree

He got mail and gifts from Chris during the motherfucker saga so he's still about that life, even if he pussied out of releasing the cards Chris drew.

that gay arguement you have to listen to in the Ascent every time

That's the first thing you mod in a new save file though, it's supposed to play Steamed Hams.

dead baby enthusiast is a job title I didn't even know existed until now

It's not that deep nigga, both are at fault, as is the case with almost every abusive household. You're not supposed to self insert into the drunk deadbeat gambling addict just because you both have a dick between your legs.

Loving how half the replies to that thread are "Sure, I loved those references to dead babies, aborted fetuses, genetic defects, mutilation, disease and murder... until now!"

o7 to the Redditors who now have to find a more wholesome game dev to get their fictional baby gore games from.

Really. The guy who made The Binding of Isaac might not be the most mentally stable individual. REALLY.

I just literally can't even right now.

Zoomers will latch onto edgy things and then get offended when those edgy things are actually edgy.

 

[Lapsus of the bepsus]

There's been a lot of new content with Repentence.

wow the remake looks fucking gay, somehow ive never really seen any gameplay of it till now. i liked the flash jank aspect of the original and its soundtrack was infinitely better. this looks like isaac crossed over with some shitty undertale tranny fangame. glad i never dropped 20 bucks on the remake and i can put the temptation to rest for good

The soundtrack is pretty meh because it's done by Nicalis' in house dad rock band, like Cave Story +, but Rebirth as a game is great.

Nothing beats the OST of the first game, it's in my top 10 favourites of all time.

It's literally nothing. The dude had an edgy website ala Newgrounds.
