Is it worth buying afterbirth and afterbirth+ or repentance?

[Peajus]

I recently got the game, and the game itself is fun but kinda hard, i heard that u can get mods if u buy afterbirth + but i also heard that u need to own the previous dlc for ab+ to work, so im assuming i need to buy ab, ab+ for mods to work? Then again isnt it better just to buy the all bundle so i could also play with some friends or people online maybe? If you have time leave ur opinion id like to read them :D
Have a good day / night.

mods don't work too well in repentence+ right now. most of the steam workshop is made for regular repentence. some mods work for afterbirth+, but most of what you'll find on the workshop are made for repentence. you need to buy afterbirth and afterbirth+ to play repentence, and you need repentence to play repentence+. you also need repentence+ to play online, but can't use mods online, and online is also really buggy!! sorry if that's a lot.

in short, buy all the dlc if you want to play with mods, and also just to enjoy the latest version of the game, cuz it's a MUCH different game. only reason to play just afterbirth+ and not repentence is if you want to see what was different or nostalgia or play with an old mod that only works for afterbirth+.

in short short, buy all the dlc. but maybe stay away from repentence+ if you want to play with mods. and maybe don't play repentence+ online yet until they fix it more, or play it anyway if you're fine with the problems it has.

in short short short, buy all the dlc so you can play repentence, and then play forever.

If you want the game up to date with all the content and patch, buy the bundle (Ab, Ab+, Rep) and DL Repentance + for online.
Take note Rep+ is kinda mixed received, online works and don't work at the same time. Some ppl have no problem at all, it is smooth, some lag like ♥♥♥♥ even with a very good connection and are desync. Buggy af.
If you don't care of online and patchs, buy the bundle, don't take Rep+.

The game is better (harder ?) and complete with all the DLCs.
I can't say anything about mods in Rep+, i don't know if they work. However, they work well with Rep/Ab+.

Thank you steven, i've put a lot of hours in online games, for me its really fun to play multiplayer so i might consider playing repentance+ but repentance+ is also free, i got the dlc for free from the store. Anyway to the point thank you, i appreciate the time u took to reply❤️

No reason to play the game without dlcs, the dlcs of this game are not like other games, not only they add new content but they rebalanced and touch all the past content as well, game should not even be sold without the dlc, everything got rebalanced etc.

Get repentance, and get repentance + after the beta ends. Only play repentance + if you aré okay with a beta and having bugs or don't play online till the beta ends as there's serious bugs with breaking save games.

At the moment get repentance cause the entire game reworked it's much better and more balanced.

The Repentance+ DLC is the beta and will be updated to a (hopefully) stable product. It is here to last as far as I know. So, if you don't want to participate in the beta, disable the Rep+ DLC for now and enable it later, when the issues are fixed.
