Here's the context Isaac and his parents lived in a small house atop a hill They were religious, but soon the father got addicted to alchohol and gambling, mother and father had a fight, a fight Isaac heared through his door, his child mind thought that it was his fault and blamed himself. Soon after, Isaac awoke to see his mother slleping, while father took money out of mother's purse and leave, never coming back. The mother after a waking, realized what had happened and went into a breakdown, she knew her and isaac's life were now tougher, and in her desprit strugle to find peace in her situation clinged onto religion. She became mad, if a christian show said to video games caused violance, she would barge into Isaac's room and take away all his video games, then his toys, then his books, and so on and so on. One day in mothers madness, she heared a voice, was it god, was it her hullicination, was it the tv, no one knows nor did it matter. The vpice told her to kill her son, kill her son then maybe, just maybe everything will be alright. Mother took a knife from the kitchen and went into isaacs room wanting prepared to kill him. In Isaac's panic he struggled and soon found a hidden basement under his carpet and jumped down, her mother reached in trying to get him but she could not fit, and soon gave up. In the basement Isaac had hulicinations of his life story (the game). And when he woke up(the level home) he blamed himself for making his parents fight, his own mother tried to kill him, he had no right to live. As the mother slept with the knife in her hands, passed out in front of the tv, Isaac jumped in the chest his mother keeped all his forbidden toys she taken from him. As the air in the chest decreased, Isaac's body turned blue, and soon he hullucinated again, of his past, his present, and what his happy future could have been. Mother woke up the next day, coming to her senses and throwing away her knife, looking for issac hoping he's ok, only to find his blue corpes in the chest she kept all his happiness locked away from him. Isaac's soul saw all this, and as he quietly watched his mother cry, he slowly accended, losing all his past regrets. Isaac sees nothing but white, he is in heaven. The end Father: do you want to write a better story Isaac: I do (Isaac enjoys the happy life, a happy kid like him, deserves; but didn't receive)
@@ahabduennschitz7670 it's even funnier that his explanation is outright wrong. -Isaac loved his father and his father helped him be creative and made toys out of cardboard with him despite his flaws -Isaac's parents divorced, his father didn't just take some money and leave -Isaac's dad desparately tried to gain custody but couldn't -his mother wasn't just a crazed lunatic, she was a suffering vulnerable person who became increasingly desparate for answers and turned to TV evangelism because she had no friends and was usually home every day even before the divorce and took a lot of pills to help cope -She never actually chased isaac with a knife or even tried to kill him, she just locked isaac in his room and took away his stuff because she couldn't understand why isaac didn't love her like he did his father. Reason being isaac thought the divorce was all his fault and acted different to avoid upsetting his mother -Isaac crawled inside the toy chest to cope with his situation and not understanding why his father was gone and his mother was so different -It was probably a good 2-4 weeks before his mother finally found his BONES inside the toy chest as missing posters were put up and his body was fully decomposed -The boss fight with mother ingame where you hear mother shout isaac after each phase is literally her screaming out trying to find isaac as he had been missing for some time. The final time she screams isaac is her finding his bones.
The sky above cracked open, and a white beam of light reached down into the Earth, smiting the mother of heartless asunder, and sending the bloody lake to a boil. As The Beast descended down into the lake of fire, Isaac ascended towards the crack in the sky! And, as he flew, he could see echoes of his past before him. He saw his mother, mourning the loss of her son. He saw his father leaving them without turning to say goodbye. He saw his mother sleeping, and his father taking money from her purse. He heard the late-night fights they had that kept him up at night, and the guilt for what he believed he was causing. He felt the pain in his stomach during those sleepless nights, and saw his shadow in the closet, waiting for him. As he rose, he felt his fears drop from his body. His shame, his worry, pulled from his being. As he became lighter, he ascent... Became faster. He saw his one true companion, alive and well! He saw his mother and father together again, holding eachother! He felt his mother kissing him on the head after he had said his prayers, and the comfort in knowing someone was watching over him! He saw his own birth, and the faces of his parents filled with joy and optimism! Then... He saw nothing. Are you sure this is how you want this story to end, Isaac? You're the one writing it, it doesn't have to end this way. Here. How about we write it a different way... Maybe a happy ending? Good. Are you getting sleepy yet? Ok, so... Ahem. Isaac and his parents _lived in a small house on the top of a hill..._
Defeating oneself's own dogmas and inner demons is the only path to liberation. Crazy how religion pushes children to have these inner fights when they're clearly not ready for them... I know this is a video game but damn...
Idk man, I think it’s more specific religions and the way people endow there children with it. If you treat religion like a requirement, it’s bad for a kid, but if you treat it like an open book, it isn’t so bad
Nowadays Kids arent confronted with anything and look where it lead us. Dont get me wrong, no Child should endure any kind of Trauma, but facing your Fear and learn to control your dark tendecys isnt a bad thing.

While y'all are crying I'm over here confused as to why Issac is making a story about HIMSELF KILLING HIS OWN MOTHER TWICE, HER HEART, HIMSELF AS A FETUS, SATAN TWICE, A LAMB, HIMSELF AND MUCH MORE
Don't take it literally. Take it biblically. "The Basement" was Isaac's hell for the sin of committing suicide. Each character an aspect of his worst traits, real and imagined. The monsters that inhabited the basement representative of an old game used to play, and things he remembered from other games. The "final bosses" representative of Isaac's sins, real and imagined. By conquering his dogma and confronting The Beast behind the walls of the Basement, Isaac has absolved himself of his sins and has been granted passage into heaven. What is heaven to a five year old child who has only known a Chaotic household? Isaac and his parent*s* living together in a house on a hill. Happy and together.
This in my opinion what THE BIGGEST TWIST IN GAMING HISTORY!! I’ve literally waited YEARS, playing every Tboi game and dlc to see what the true ending was! This completely threw me off! The fact that it was ALL a story. This is why I will always love this game
I still have the headcanon that after his father got custody, he lets isaac tells his missed up stories to help him through the trauma his mother put him through.
I'm sad i saw this on a youtube video and not the way i should have. I did so because i thought it was a mod and not official. It had been so long since i played The binding of isaac, this was the only time i found out about it's existence
So the binding of Isaac was just a story being told by his dad to Isaac so That being how he depicted the beast and mom as monsters it seems like Isaac's mom instead got addicted to something which caused a fight so he left with Isaac and as he was being put to sleep he said a story which was this game and so the add-ons like salvation was Isaac's way to switch the story up a bit
Sadly its still more likable that he died in the Box and this is just part of his imagination. But at least he thought of something nice before he suffocated 😢
This ending is fucking incredible
After all the pain, Isaac can finally be happy
"Isaac dead"

@@Jauben-x9hhe lying
I literally cried the first time I watched this...
It's been two years and I still crying
I still cry every time i win against the beast

I cry everytime I see this
I swear when I first pulled this ending off, I had many, many tears shed from my eyes.

@@MyLolmom also delirium is quite literally isaac clinging to life and losing his sense of reality as he slowly dies
A lot of this isn’t even lore accurate. His mom never actually wants to/tries to kill him and his dad doesn’t solely destroy the marriage.
1:48 Isaac voice is adorable 😭😭😭😭 little baby
isnt this one of the only 3 voice lines he has? (not counting the damage sounds)
Fun fact, Isaac's voice actor is actually the son of both mom and dad's voice actors 🥺

Ikr! I feel like Ive played and followed this game for years and this worth definitely worth it all, loved every sec of it!
I think this real... Issac live or death...
Wdym it was all just a story
Edmund confirmed Isaac died in the chest while hiding from his mother and himself.
"He saw his one true companion, alive and well"
I still have the headcanon that after his father got custody, he lets isaac tells his missed up stories to help him through the trauma his mother put him through.
Bro really told the story in a different way, maybe a happy ending

why is this so sad
This ending is so wholesome
The only videogame that made me cry
WHATS THE SONGS NAME , i have been trying to find it , it is a masterpiece
I HAVENT EVEN BEATEN THIS YET I AM TEARING UP BRO
So the whole story of this game is Isaac fighting his inner demons a wanting peace all while suffocating?
Gets me every time
So does this mean Isaac wasn’t real? Since it’s a story
So you are telling me that the whole game is a story that the father of isaac is telling him?
In heaven, yes
In a way, Isaac retelling the story with an happy ending can also hint his rebirth.
Awww, the ending is so sad and emotional 🥺🥺🥺🥺💖✨ I LOVE ISSAC'S VOICE HE'S SUCH AN ANGEL 💖💖💖💖💖💕 My bisexual heart is melting so much 💖💜💙 T^T
