Mega Satan is too easy?
If you manage to get to him, he is honestly one of the easiest bosses in the game. He has easiy dodged tears, and he never moves, so you can just spam in his general direction if your range isnt completely terrible.
The hardest part about this boss is the horsemen and the angels he spawns, and those are easily dispatched of anyways.
Plus, the chaos card completely bypasses the horsemen, angels, and sins and sends you to the final form, which is not that hard to beat.
What do you think about mega satan? Honestly, i think bosses like haunt are harder in proportion to the amount of items you have, since you cant build up a good combo by then.

Haunt only hard at the begining where you don't have much items. In later floors even as miniboss he is pretty easy.

What Mega Satan really needs is damage resistance that Ultra Greed and Hush have and he will be a hard boss once again.

I think Mega Satan should have unique boss summons only found in the mega satan fight, that are harder than all the normal bosses that he throws at you. Or perhaps you would have to fight regular satan before mega satan appears? Both of these things would up the challenge a reasonable amount.
Maybe make all his summons champions?

Would not make a big difference. Damage resistance for Mega Satan and his summons is the answear!

Yeah, scaling health with your damage would make more runs viable, but maybe not as insane as hush's scaling, seriously, that fight takes YEARS, his summons could have health scaling, but maybe not too much or the fight would drag on for too long, making it more tedious and boring than fun and challenging

Yeah, i've always liked dmg scaling, but not to the extent of hush. Sometimes i swear a base isaac would beat him faster then some okish runs.
Maybe if the mini bosses he spawned were stronger, it would be a harder fight too, as the mini bosses are arguably the hardest part of the fight.

Ah, its so nice to have a conversation without people yelling at you

I agree, sort of. I mean, he isn't one of the easiest bosses in the game. You can't throw him in the same category as Pin, dingle, monstro, duke of flies, etc. But I tend to think he is much easier than fighting isaac and blue baby in my opinion

While he is harder than all the other bosses you mentioned, by the time you get to him, you basically need a sorta-amazing combo to stand a chance of getting to the chest/dark room in the first place!
In proportion to how many items you pick up, he is probably one of the easiest, since even though stuff like pin and haunt are easy, you only really have like 3-4 items as base isaac anyways.
Also, yeah I have a harder time beating isaac and satan than I do mega satan, and I dont even know mega satan's attack patterns!

I seriously don't care at all if he's too easy; it's a godsend that he's not obnoxiously difficult since getting to him with the Keeper and the Lost was really hard by itself, lol.

I wish his rewards weren't purely co-op based. Beat him for the first time just now and what I thought was a major accomplishment was quickly diminished.

Agreed.

I don't think he's any more difficult than the Chest/Dark Room, but needing to use a Sacrifice Room 11 times on a floor, or not take any Devil Deals are pretty tough conditions.

I'm pretty sure its just plain 11 sacrifices, but I might be wrong about that.

you're correct. do it 12 times you have a 50% chance of being teleported to the dark room. learned that the hard way...
