You very quickly learn by watching streams which items are worth rerolling which ones should be picked up and why, and another fun part about it is if you watch any of the BoI leagues is many of the players have their own quirks about their play as well (such as one player picking up familiars where most players don't). I don't think I'm good enough to start timing myself on runs or anything either but I think I know the theory behind much of it at least. Edit: Hmm. Apparently Crypt of the Necrodancer was officially released today. Maybe I'll buy that and stream it tonight. The music is really awesome but I'm not sure the replayability is there from watching pre-release streams of it. I do know a LOT of the Isaac players have been playing it like crazy though, so there must be something to it. Oh I'm well aware of the D6's potential. I'm just saying that I'm happier not using it, hence why I prefer other characters. That and I'm a sucker for Luck Foot. My preference for not wanting to use the D6 is much like the same reason why I play Darius over someone like Renekton. Sure Renekton is better, but I have more fun with Darius hence that's who I play. Maybe not the best analogy, but I am well aware that some items are worth re-rolling and others are not. And for the most part it is a pretty simple yes/no answer to whether or not you re-roll something. I'm just saying that I don't like having to me strategic about re-rolls, like when I re-roll, how to plan them, etc. And I know that I could be lazy and not plan with the D6 and stuff, but that'd drive me mad. It'd be like me going for a C on a Math test when I know how to easily get an A. I mean, yes I can go for the C but I wouldn't be satisfied with myself. That's partly what killed my interest with Pokemon, my personality combined with the knowledge of EV training. I could't force myself to be ignorant of that kind of stuff, so I became meticulous with it and it destroyed the pacing of the game for me. It wasn't the game's fault, but rather it was my own. | ||

If possible, I'd like to start a Binding of Isaac cult or something. It's really fun to talk to you guys about the game to be honest. That and it's nice to have relevant interests. | ||
