Bayonetta 3 Thread

[Hades]

The more I think back on Bayonetta 3 the more I don't really like it. Purists say the fighting mechanics are a step above from Bayonetta 2 and I'd give them that. But in the end I don't care about that. Its a spectacle fighter. I'm here for the spectacle and not the depth, and in this I think the game falls a bit flat.

The enemies and the locations you visit are all a big downgrade from the marble angels and gorgeous Renaissance cities. That and I've gotten tired of the multiverse long before this game delved into it.

Also the story is just stupid at times, and not the good kind of stupid like the rest of the series.

All understandable. I still like the game, but I do feel to step down from the second game. Despite all the awesome fighting mechanics. You are dead on about the enemy designs. I hate a majority of the homunculi, and I don't find 95% of them fun to fight. All said, I still think it's a good game, despite its flaws. The other problem with the game is that it has too many gameplay divergences that are not fun or play way worse than the divergences from the past games. I'm just glad the game allows individual section and chapters selection, so you don't have to do the entire chapter to get better ranks. More action games should actually include that.

Kamiya shedding actual light and the truth of what actually happened. Fuck all these streamers for backpaddling, or trying to act like they didn't support Taylor. Or worse, try to double down and defend her for quickl crappy behavior.

Shouldn't he maybe have done that from the beginning rather than block anyone who talked about it? It became clear pretty quickly that Taylor was in the wrong, but Kamiya did nothing to help prove Platinum's case.

Unfortunately, he was under NDA himself and company policy from both sega and platinum. We may not like it, but he made the right call and did the right thing.

I'm not defending his constant blocking, but Kamiya was actually ahead of the curb. Don't forget that he originally started in because people started saying racist rants to him and his team, because the company was asked by Nintendo to make the first sequel to the original game. Platinum went to Sony and Microsoft, and neither were interested. Sony added the we'll think about it, excuse, but that basically meant no. Sega themselves couldn't finance it due to financial difficulties and recent layoffs around that time.

What we got right now is more than better than nothing. Taylor started all this shit from the start and lied from the very start. I can't blame Kamiya, Nintendo, nor Platinum for following protocol. Taylor enabled and encouraged people on social media to attack her replacement voice actor. There is no coming back from that now. Nor ignore her shitty give me money to fund these racist Republicans and cops.

Jennifer Hale did not deserve any of that harassment when she was just doing her job, and keeping things civil herself.

Fuck the grifters, the influencers, whatever streamers, try to do the whole both side excuses or double down and try to support Taylor. They can burn with each other in hell.

I don't mind the BayoxJeanne pairing, even if it's non canon (I know the second game somewhat hints at it, but that was under a different director and writers unfortunately), but calm your ass down.

1. Kamiya isn't even at Platinum anymore. He quit over eight months ago. He's back at calm now, making a new Okami. Most of the old Platinum alumni are back at capcom now.
2. You shouldn't wish for them to go out of business. It's mostly new people at Platinum now (a majority of them didn't work on the Bayonetta games), and they're all almost young twenty somethings. They're working with KT on Ninja Gaiden 4, so Platinum is not going anywhere. This game is pretty much their Metal Gear Rising 2.
