This game is by the same guy who made the first DMC and Okami. Nothing in the world could pursuade me not to buy this game. And most japanese games have super-easy modes, but that doesn't mean you need to turn it on.
Why? What's wrong with it?CantFaketheFunk said:Look, you guys can make the jokes. I'm just ... not going to touch that one, okay?
Oh, those crazy Japanese. What will they do next?AmrasCalmacil said:Is it me or has everyone who's complaining about the feature being pointless missing the obvious joke?
A game in which the main character's clothes fall off when she casts a spell can be played one handed.
One word: accessibility.CantFaketheFunk said:xmetatr0nx said:Yea true, but unless you are a 7yr old or handicapped its hard to see the point of this feature. Its like purchasing a new sports car that drives itself...if you want it to.I refer you to the aforementioned column [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/articles/view/columns/the-hard-problem/6359-Unfinished-Games] by Mr. Tynes - it's a very interesting piece about leaving games unfinished, and questioning why it's seemingly "okay" in our industry (can you imagine having a movie that only 30% of viewers ever finished watching? It'd have to be a travesty!) Instead, modes like these aim to make games accessible to people who'd otherwise never touch a controller for fear of not having the ridiculous hand-eye coordination/spatial awareness it takes to survive games like these on harder difficulties. Is there something wrong with more people being able to enjoy a game?rossatdi said:Well yeah, but what's the point of including it? Its pandering at the best and at the worst its encouraging the steady movement of games towards mind numbing ease.
If Bayonetta is anything like DMC, on harder levels it will be brutal. If you need a challenge, play those. If you can't handle it, that's what Automatic mode is for. I really don't see a downside, to be honest.

That's her hair wrapped around her.
More likely than not you won't get many points for using it. It will prolly be one of those humiliating 0G achievments that are insulting. It will probably be titled "I want my mommy" and the tile will be a face crying.The_Oracle said:Gamerscore hunters are just going to love this.
And there is nothing worse than not being able to master a difficult move so you can execute it perfectly which leads to constant reloading. There are some people who will find no enjoyment in that and will start looking at it as work instead of fun. And since those people's money is just as green as yours well to the company thier feelings are just as important and valid as yours. So they are catering to both without disregarding either. Those evil bastards.salbarragan said:If I wanted to see the game play itself, I would go on youtube and watch a speed run. What is the point of a game, if you arent even going to invest the time to really immerse yourself in the experience? Nothing beats finally mastering a difficult move and executing it perfectly.
I'd say you just did. Either way, I'm not getting it. I don't have system or the money to get it.CantFaketheFunk said:Look, you guys can make the jokes. I'm just ... not going to touch that one, okay?
