Afterbirth+ may have been a bit of a wet fart, but after Antibirth pushed the limits of what a Binding of Isaac expansion could be Ed and the team stood up to the plate and knock Repentance out of the basement.
Here we see a return to the sheer quantity and quality that Afterbirth initially gave us. You have all new environments, atmospheric effects, power ups, item combos, unlockable characters, bosses, more monster variants, challenges, room designs, and more.
While AB+ was clearly meant to be more of a community oriented expansion with lofty goals around the ARG element, it was clear that what people really wanted was the gritty in-game substantive content. An IRL prize that benefits the few hundred people able to take part in it doesn't compare to 5000 new room layouts that everyone can enjoy.
This expansion simply does what made AB so great in the first place - it add more of everything you care about, and makes for a great excuse to get back into the cellar if you haven't visited in a while.
