Hey Guest. Check out your NeoGAF Wrapped 2025 results here!
E3 - WiiU - Bayonetta 2 Off-Screen Gameplay via GamekyoTV
- Thread starter Effect
- Start date
Buy me an Xbox 360 and a native 720p TV and I'll play it.
My blade is also yours.
This game for me is the definition of a system seller.
Yep. That's why many people can tell which game is 60 fps and which one is not even back in the 480i games of the last decade. The extra frames don't just disappear, they are blended into a new keyframe.

Action games like Bayonetta are one of my two favourite genres in gaming. Totally jumping aboard the WiiU train after watching this (as if I didn't already have a reason to do so with Lego City: Undercover). Platinum, keep on doing what you're doing.

i really hope all the weapons from the first one will come back..it would be a waste otherwise
I don't think they will for every weapon. We already have twin swords and foot whips, that already makes the Shuraba (katana) and Kulshedra (whip) redundant. We could see modified or evolved versions of the past weapons, but I think that's about it.
Honestly, I just want to see some new stuff they got cooked up. Hopefully they have stuff in this game that makes the Kilgores and Sai-fung look like toys.
Now I want to play this game again. It's held up remarkably well. Even after MGR, it's still PG's best title. They really put their all into that game.

Not me. Odette was gimmicky, Durgas were boring and Kilgore was broken.
I want some to return like the Bazillions and Sai Fong, but otherwise give me some all new shit.
and more diversity among them. Too much moveset overlap between weapons in first game. It'd be pretty awesome if every weapon had unique demons/wicked weaves in Umbran Climax.
Foot whips look nothing like Kulshedra though.
Speaking of feet weapons though it seems like Bayonetta has more than 3 kick chains now. You see some new ones in the developer direct.
Platinum does listen to feedback. More meter options and more kick chains already confirmed.
Hopefully a control scheme pops up from E3 impressions.
Do you not have a gaming PC? There's very little reason to own a PS3 or Xbox 360 when you have access to 99% of the games that interest you on those systems with significantly better graphics, controls and framerate.
Of course they look nothing like them, but they do are functionally similar to them. I do think they're just gonna go with evolutions or modifications of the previous weapons, while introducing brand new ones. I'm cool with that, really.
Those got me through hard mode. They hit so damn hard.

Well I mean the coolest thing about Kulshedra in the first game was that it was the only weapon that could grab people.
So I mean unless the foot whips can do that they still have a place in the game imo.

No tearing? Silky smooth framerate? God damn. I hope all next gen games are like this. That alone feels next gen to me

Bazillions had utility that Scarborough Fair and Onyx Roses did not. (Charge move could lock enemies in hitstun on the ground and in the air.) There's pretty much a reason to use all three in different situations depending on what you want to do.
Odette had no real unique utility. Just the freeze gimmick based on how many times you kick a single enemy consecutively.
To each their own I guess. I don't like the slow weapons in this game and lightning durga wasn't much different from alot of other weapons. I only used them(lightning durga) on bosses as they hit fast and are low damage allowing you to obtain the combo rank in those fights much more easily
Nah. Kilgore was too much. AoE crowd control, long range and super high damage. It made the game too easy even without the glitch just with its hold moves and enemy step. If they brought it back they gotta nerf rocket damage or the aoe splash or something.
I did like its stinger move on the hands though.
Same. Sai Fong was my favorite weapon from the first game. Gunchucks just too sick of a concept to be contained in one entry.
Up the ante Platinum. Double Gunchucks in Bayo 2.

God bless you Kamiya
They can make something else that grabs enemies. It's clear that the new whips are used for crowds now. Which is fine by me.

Am I reading someone arguing in favor of removing ice stakes you can fight with from a video game?

The silky skating animation alone is justification for keeping Odette in.

Not arguing they need to get removed from the first game
just that they don't need to come back in the second

I'm cool with ice skates returning as long as they have a more varied moveset or something.
This game looks great either way. Will buy day one just like I did with the first.

I have dreamt of this game since I completed Bayonetta for the first time, and it is fucking incredible that it is happening so perfectly like this.
Dual katanas, climax mode outside of bosses (with summoning infernal demons like wicked weaves), the orgasmic art style and visuals are still intact.
Words can not express my hype.

I wonder if it's a coincidence that the opening stage reminds me of Kunoichi's

Fighting on stealth fighters is a pretty awesome way to open a game no matter how many times it's been done

Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.
As a Wii U owner, this right here is why I'm not even mad about an otherwise lackluster showing from Nintendo.
Now... I need to do something about my avatar since the new Bayonetta is even sexier.

Do people outside of the hardcore ones care about this game at all?
Man, some of these Wii U games already looked pretty good during the low-quality Nintendo Direct, but damn, I had no idea they were THIS gorgeous. Looks like Nintendo finally flipped that "next-gen" switch on the back of their devs kits. ;p
I wish X would get this same treatment, but unlikely since it won't be playable.
WOW! @ scene 5.51. Are you kidding me?! Best realtime water(splash particles) effects I have EVER seen, in ANY game, period!

What metal is more precious than platinum? Because PG is going to have to change their name after this.

Platinum will probably release one with the month. They did that for the older Wonderful 101 trailers.
