Bayonetta 3 - What Moon themed song they gonna pick this time

Jim (Grifter) Sterling says why he doesn’t like Helena Taylor. Not because she’s a liar, but because he doesn’t like her politics.
I can’t imagine being this obsessed with politics.
Half of this fucking video was him calling anti-abortionists, my fucking God. This is coming from the groom who still fights men in wrestling matches.

It’s still kinda funny that Taylor torpedoed her future prospects by lying by omission. She managed to negotiate a higher pay (from $10K to $15K) than most voice actors and rejected it because she was being greedy and wanted a “fair living wage”.

Elias Toufexis was the only voice actor who got this right.
 
To be honest, I really don't care about any of the voice actors. They do a great job in the game and that's all I want.

The game itself is great fun and stunning visual-wise. All the costumes you get to unlock are really pretty and every weapon and demon is cool to play with, though my favourite is the spider with the yo-yos.
The levels are huge. There are tons of unlockables and extra challenges and some passages are as wacky as I want a Japanese game to be.

Viola is a little difficult to play imo because her only way to activate witch time is through a perfect block which is far more difficult to achieve than dodging with Bayonetta. As a character though, I have to admit she's grown on me.

The ending was bittersweet, but I'm fine with it.
Overall its my personal game of the year measured by my struggle with putting it down

I estimate I'm only a third way thru the game and couldn't agree more. This is the sequel to Bayonetta 1 that I think all Platinum fans were hoping for. That's not to shit on Bayo 2 it was a fun game but more an expansion pack to the original game than anything else.

I feel there's a chance this could be the conclusion to the franchise and if so I'm happy that it went out on a high note. But I will be ecstatic if Nintendo greenlights a Bayonetta 4 obviously. Just please put it on stronger hardware because playing on the Switch is really painful nowadays.
 
Called Viola being a Bayonetta x Luka kid, the fallout from all the butthurt Bayonetta x Jeanne fans has been hilarious. Bayonetta was never a lesbian, and I guess the fact that she ended up with Luka in one of the many multiverses is unacceptable. As for the ending... yeah, don't like how that sounds at all. I'm hoping I'll enjoy the gameplay at least.
Wait, wouldn't that also mean... Because their kid is from a different universe doesn't that mean she ended up with Jeanne in another? The fuck are they crying about?

Bonus crazy:
So if it's multiple universes, does this mean Dante and her could wind up together in one of them?
 
I’ve heard there’s gonna be a Bayo 4 at one point. Personally I want platinum to make Vanquish 2 first because Vanquish was such a unique and fun game. I don’t think there’s another game like it out there.

Luka was always my favorite so
his death made me a very sad farmer.
I’m pretty sure he isn’t dead. He just went into Inferno with Bayo. Rodin makes reference to keeping tabs on Viola for him in the ending, so he’s hardly gone.

Most likely, yeah. They're dumbasses who are just mad that A. she ended up with a man period and B. said man is Luka.

Also, possibly. That's what I prefer to think at least.

I'm hoping Platinum makes an Anarchy Reigns 2 at some point (or at the very least a PC port of the first one).
 
So far I have mixed opinions on the game. There are things I really like, but everything I hated about the original 2 are here and back in the most obnoxious forms the series has ever seen. Fuck every single alpheim or whatever they call them now in the ass, they ALL suck and are anti-fun. Summoning is kind of cool but I still prefer up close combat and the more utilitarian summons dominate through the whole game.

It isn't very fun to replay levels because the gimmick shit happens maybe every 10 minutes. I just want to fight stuff without getting shoved into a 20 minute rail shooter.

Homunculi are okay enemies but they don't have anywhere near the personality of the angels in 1.

The story is predictably retarded, but also kind of boring and not very fun. It should have been a multiverse road trip with you collecting Bayos across time and space to fucking kill the big bad but that doesn't happen and the narrative never seems to move past act 1.

All in all, still a good ass game, just nit my favorite of the trilogy. It is amazing how good it looks on the switch too, while also running decently.
 
I can’t really decide whether bayonetta 2 or 3 is my favorite. Bayonetta 2 never slowed down. You had sick ass boss fights right in the prologue like this one.
And still my favorite song in the entire series.

Literally bae. It is laughable to me that all the dykes are incredibly pissed off about him.

I mean
ending up with the brat from 101 is hillerious and I can see why mad. I'm head canoeing somehow that W101 Lula and Bayo Lula are just the same person
 
What the fuck were the people in charge of the challenge rooms smoking when some of these got made? The witch heart one in chapter 11 makes me want to tear my fucking hair out.

You have to use the bats echolocation, first wave is enemies that dodge demon attacks, second is a spear guy and the rolling guy with diamond skin, and they have the audacity to lock you into the accessory that gives health on taunt. The bats attacks don’t seem to break his skin consistently the way every other summon does. Has anyone else tried this one yet, and if so what am I supposed to be doing here?
 
Late, but:
Game journos are mad because
SPOILER: Bayonetta is confirmed straight in Bayo 3 and shares a kiss with Luka at the end of the game. Viola is their daughter.
...much to the surprise of people who never played Bayonetta 1.
For extra emphasis of how obvious this was:

This journalist is so isolated from normal society that she can't wrap her head around straight men being attracted to sexy naked women. Like, that's what fucking makes straight guys, straight!

Maddy Myers was so wrapped up in her headcanon that she posted this article 2 days before the review:

Remember the days back when gaming journalists lambasted Bayonetta for feeding into the "male gaze" and being sexist?
1667270528438.png

It's really funny how post 2015-legbutt pandering brainrot in media ruined the idea that women could be close without fucking each other.

1667519433993.png

These weirdos also find women acting feminine to be such an alien thing that the closest thing they could associate it with is fucking Drag Queens. They're so detached from normal people that when they see a woman in a dress acting flamboyant, that must mean crossdresser.

As a bonus, here's this ex-Lab Zero dev reading way too deeply into why straight guys would find Bayonetta undressing to be hot.

Following up. I ended up cheesing it with Baal’s blood rain. Some of these are just awful.

It seems that these people's brains rot at an exponential rate. Holy shit, this is so stupid.

I just want to give a shutout to Walmart, they delivered the game a few days before release and I got it for a killer deal.

 
The ending was depressing and weird and the main villain fucking sucked. I'd be pretty pissed if I wasn't 90 percent certain the universes reset upon his defeat.
