Steam Community :: Worse Item Descriptions

PurpleParfait 13 aug om 10:36

This makes it more fancy to read, if you want worse, other item description mods go NUTS!

Raegoer 11 jun om 7:17

honestly this + EID is a direct upgrade. more fun words to read with no lost information

Capn. Wing Ding [auteur] 21 dec 2023 om 14:29

And the winner is... Edmund McMillen, with "Extra life"! congratulations!

I am about to fry my brain by using this

Capn. Wing Ding [auteur] 17 aug 2022 om 18:00

@blebsmc99 thank you very much!!! i will not be changing dogma gnuts.
@everyone else Thank you for your submissions. they have been duly ignored.

semi-biannual reminder that you can personalize your version of the mod by just digging through your mod folder and editing the items.XML located in folder "worse item descriptions_2579382372".

blebsmc99 17 aug 2022 om 15:25

god this is one of the funniest fucking mods i've ever downloaded
i love it
and you know some of the item descriptions are actually pretty cool not just unhelpful
(change dogma's though)

1up: oh, nevermind

bee girl irl 23 mei 2022 om 20:44

1up: "Another try."

z0mbiesrock 19 mei 2022 om 12:04

1up = "Just what you needed"

Capn. Wing Ding [auteur] 23 dec 2021 om 10:09

@ciao_fiv oh, right, I knew I was forgetting something.

ciao_fiv 23 dec 2021 om 8:47

heads up, this mod causes c section to not work. (i had to isolate every mod i had installed to figure out why c section wasnt doing anything and this is the one)

GangCripKushLolGroveStreet 18 nov 2021 om 2:04

Well as soon as i turned it off it stopped crashing could still be a collision with another mod

Capn. Wing Ding [auteur] 17 nov 2021 om 18:14

@GangCripKushLolGroveStreet I tested a full run with T.Cain that grabbed maybe over 100 items with no other mods active, and I never had a crash. Are you sure that it's *this* mod in particular that's causing a crash?

GangCripKushLolGroveStreet 17 nov 2021 om 3:09

It crashes on tainted cain idk if u fixed it yet

Capn. Wing Ding [auteur] 16 nov 2021 om 20:02

@GangCripKushLolGroveStreet The patch that just dropped? I don't see why not, they didn't change the Items.xml file as far as I can tell.

GangCripKushLolGroveStreet 16 nov 2021 om 14:16

Is it working in the new patch? I really missed this mod!

Capn. Wing Ding [auteur] 16 nov 2021 om 12:03

@cool cool Trust me, I tried. replacing the birthright="#BIRTHRIGHT" lines just doesn't work. The *real* descriptions are probably somewhere, but I sure as shit can't be bothered to find them.

cool cool 16 nov 2021 om 11:02

if u still need help finding the birthright descriptions, they seem to be in the players.xml file. havent tried changing them and seeing them ingame tho

Voxelroguery 14 nov 2021 om 10:10

This is a BIG plane

GangCripKushLolGroveStreet 14 nov 2021 om 5:29

Yupp crash on tainted cain

Capn. Wing Ding [auteur] 12 nov 2021 om 8:55

@En Ost Hm. That's probably because they updated the items.xml. Once again, I'll get right on that. As for @Kebarvu , I have no idea why that's happening. Hopefully that fixes itself once I do everything else.

En Ost 12 nov 2021 om 4:17

This mod seems to crash with tainted cain as of the new patch

Kebarvu 11 nov 2021 om 20:24

btw, this mod crashes the game when you enter rooms with a ghost mom in new patch

Capn. Wing Ding [auteur] 11 nov 2021 om 16:57

Don't worry, I saw the new patch. those items'll get a new description soon-ish. Maybe wait a few days.

Capn. Wing Ding [auteur] 26 okt 2021 om 11:07

@Miracleprism Y'know, I don't remember doing that, but that _does_ seem like something I would do. Glad someone noticed.

Miracleprism 26 okt 2021 om 4:56

I combined this with the mod that adds Dogma to the angel room pool, and found out Dogma's description is "Dogma balls". 10/10 for attention to detail

NootTheNewt 16 okt 2021 om 19:55

when there's a mod to make item descriptions useless but you already know what they do anyway

WEMZ 5 sep 2021 om 13:06

the descriptions are creative, well done!

Nadi 4 sep 2021 om 16:52

it makes the descriptions much more interesting tbh, and I have item description mod anyway,

but I definitely like this mode though

Ham-Induced Crackhead 30 aug 2021 om 13:07

This mod is 100x better than it says it is

Capn. Wing Ding [auteur] 28 aug 2021 om 21:59

@100% frying pan Well, that's just how it is. You can always change it in the mod's files, if you want.

100% frying pan 28 aug 2021 om 20:43

I dont like how every fimilar is called (something) buddy

vinman712 28 aug 2021 om 9:16

honestly i like the idea of this mod, because it makes the flavor text of items more flavorful

WitchAmy 28 aug 2021 om 2:00

I'm installing this purely for the jokes, as I have memorized all items lol

Spiderh8er12 27 aug 2021 om 7:56

Joke's on you, I've memorized the effect of every item!

iammariofan1999 26 aug 2021 om 17:40

This mod doesn't help me in any way! Amazing job!

Ryoshma 24 aug 2021 om 19:46

thank you

WarPear 23 aug 2021 om 10:08

I remember how Super Mario Galaxy showed a message when you get your first 1-up saying that it's an extra Mario
poor young me would be brainfuxed for the next 2 years to come

Capn. Wing Ding [auteur] 20 aug 2021 om 22:31

@bardtard Yea, I could rename it, but it just doesn't feel right. Besides, everyone already knows what a 1up does, so including the phrase at all is kinda a dead giveaway. [also, if anyone knows how to actually reply to comments, please let me know.]

Ringo_Starkey 20 aug 2021 om 12:15

The description for 1up could be "Extra Isaac", which is more vague to a modern player and matches the wording typically used for extra lives in older games.

Alternatively, since you're renaming some items anyway, you could rename it "Green Mushroom" and make the description "1up!".

Capn. Wing Ding [auteur] 20 aug 2021 om 9:27

@Gold_360 Examples added! Apparently, Steam doesn't like images bigger than 512x512, so they're really blurry and crap.

Cozyrazu 20 aug 2021 om 0:07

give me some examples

Capn. Wing Ding [auteur] 19 aug 2021 om 22:21

@Q-U7 that would be crass and immature, completely going against the themes of Isaac and everything he stands for. Now, if you don't mind, I'm off to go shoot poop at a corpse.

quiggyballs 19 aug 2021 om 20:20

you should give isaac a little butt in the thumbnail art for this lol
