Richard Hammer, Cobalt Streak and all their nuthuggers in chat can suck my dick. They ruined The Lost ARG just so 2 degens can complete some **** challenge. What's the point in the "2 best Isaac players" doing a 100% challenge when they get their chat to spoil the hardest things to figure out.

The guy from Nicalis said it best when he said they ate a $100 steak in one bite. Edmund has already said they planned on doing something similar for the expansion but that's scrapped now. Thanks dick heads.

What do you mean by something similar? Note: I would not like spoilers so if the answer contains some about late game issues then nevermind

Not sure I understand the hate for Richard and Cobalt in this case. Should they not have done a 24x7 stream of Rebirth? They paid for their $100 steak and lots of people wanted to watch them eat it in one bite, including me.

I watched their stream a bunch over the last week, and was watching when The Lost happened.

People in chat were simply reporting what was being discussed on Reddit. Were they (chat) at fault for doing so?

Should Cobalt have ignored what was being said in chat and pretended he didn't see it? Should the people chatting about it have been banned to avoid spoiling it?

I agree it's unfortunate that the "secret" was revealed so quickly after Rebirth was released, but I don't see how Cobalt or Richard are at all responsible for this. People were going to find it on Reddit, and it was going to be posted to other Gaming sites. Richard and Cobalt happened to have the most viewers, but that can't be held against them for this.

I don't think we know who datamined the secret out, but both guys are pretty interactive in chat and it was spoiled to them as well.

Reddit was already working on the puzzle pieces so it probably only took a day or so away from the lost being discovered without the datamining

Wow....unlocking the lost is insane. I can see why the devs are pissed.

meh just read how to unlock and thats beyond ******ed.
no way anyone can figure this out since u have to do it in the reight order consecutively.
there just no way so I dont see why they are pissed the only way to figure this out is datamining.

unless there are ingame hints?

Yeah that's ****ing impossible

there are a lot of puzzle pieces you find in game, it would have taken the community a litte while, 1-2 days longer than the datamining to finish figuring it out

its not like something we'd finally solve in July, I guess if you did it 100% on your own it might take that long or longer

it was definitely being solved when it was spoiled

what are these puzzle pieces?
gonna read about that but if indeed there are puzzle pieces and hints then its cool.
dont care that people use datamining tho its a solo player and I use wiki too for it.

Tiny planet is pretty interesting. Might be cool if you have big tears and some shot speed but doubt I'll ever be able to win a run where that's one of the first things to show up.

Also it's really stupid to have true platinum god be the exact same as platinum god

platinum god should have been all the achievements/items hard mode everything for the first 10 characters

true platinum god would have the lost achievements too(178/170), as is you need to kill the lamb on hard mode to get godhead to get plat god

The charge shot that fires up to 4 tears at once does that. 3rd to last on your list of stuff.

Cursed eye (charge shot???).

Slow pony....but ya sometimes it stops doing it. Not sure what disables it.

Might be a stupid question but could the black candle disable it? It's called cursed shot and the black candle gives you curse immunity.

Be careful with the Suicide King card. Popped it at the end of a challenge entering the mom's foot fight with no idea what it did.. FML.
