Well, keep one thing in mind.
It may very well serve as a "follow-up" to Bayonetta in some way. But Kamiya himself has stated that he'd be up to doing something else with the world setting. Such as maybe a "prequel" that takes things back to the Umbra v Lumen War (in the "new" timeline perhaps? :lol) or maybe something with Jeanne/Cutie J (who's actually his fave character).
Whatever he may opt to do, it's STILL gotta end up being better than what else we've been offered as of late. :lol
I haven't checked the link but the answer is NO. RT @manoelpdb Is this true? -> http://t.co/zYUU7Yt

Oh, and the best one, and very fitting for this occasion:
IT'S A CELEBRATION, BITCHES!
a) Make the god-awful cutscenes easier to skip (just press a button, no need to pause, select "skip", select "yes")
b) Don't make cutscenes that lead into other cutscenes
c) Don't punish people that skip cutscenes
___ c1) Don't push me into frozen, non-practice loading screens when I skip a cutscene
___ c2) Don't put Instant-Death QTEs right after cutscenes*
d) Make sure to space the cutscenes better (no more cutscene into 2 minute fight into cutscene into another cutscene, please)
K thx bye.
--------
* Only noticed it at my second playthrough, and it's hilarious how the game doesn't consider something so simple - people may not want to (always) watch your terrible cutscenes

Their newest deal with Platinum is only one game (Anarchy Reigns) instead of three games, and they expect that one to sell around a million copies.Billychu said:
I suspect that after that bombs, they'll only publish Bayonetta titles, assuming the series' sales don't tank.
They've already dropped the Nudemaker games and a fair share of the Vanquish team left to Tango, so I'm curious what the other half of the company will do.

I didn't even like Bayonetta much, but I'd probably still get it day 1 to support Platinum in their endeavors
Oh sorry, I counted that one a bit different since it was developed by a different company and only had oversight by Platinum.Billychu said:

I love Bayonetta and would love a sequel. Kamiya can do no wrong in my eyes.
But there's another side of me that doesn't want a Bayonetta 2. After watching the "Hideki Kamiya Revealed" interview on YouTube (I really recommend you watch it if you haven't already), I kind of hope it's another new IP. He talks about how it's frustrating that so many people only buy sequels because they feel safe knowing what they're in for, and that he's rather be surprising people with something new every time. I hope he has genuine (not financial, or corporate pressure) reasons for really wanting to do a Bayonetta instead of a new IP.

I can understand your "meh" a little better if you were wanting Kamiya to direct a new IP

...I'm not saying its you, and I'm not faulting anyone who didnt realize this, but I guess I'm just getting old when I hear people complain about something like this. Doesn't anyone experiment with pressing buttons anymore. Does every game have to spell it out for you.
Loved discovering the shadow dodge(correct name escapes me) in No More Heroes that allows you to slow down time and deal lightning fast combos on unsuspecting enemies or half the time/attack/melee combinations in Vanquish. So much fun trying new things.
But I thought the unspoken rule, when trying to skip a cutscene quickly, was to press every button on the controller until you found the correct combination.
Frankfurt said:
But thats the best time to punish someone who doesn't want to take the time to experience something you spent years creating.
But if you're playing the game a second time, you should see all this stuff coming. Getting hit once isn't a big deal unless your trying to unlock a secret ending for not getting hit in the game. And even if you do get hit, just reload the save, if you care that much.
BLECK. What a terrible suggestion. The last thing I want is to accidentally skip a cutscene if I mistakenly brush a button or drop the controller or my cat jumps on me or WHATEVER. Pressing start, selecting skip, and confirming should be the INDUSTRY STANDARD.Frankfurt said:

FlashbladeGAF said:
Pressing R2 and Select simultaneously isn't exactly intuitive and most games use a single button press to skip things.
duffyside said:
I can't handle the amount of wrong in this post. All cutscenes should be INSTANTLY skippable so I can get back to playing the game. They should also be rewatchable in a menu or something, I don't know, to solve your edge case of being attacked by a cat or fumbling with your controller like a buffoon.
I guess in the context of a game like Uncharted I can see things your way. But in Bayonetta, the faster you can skip the cutscenes the better.
hey_it's_that_dog said:
It's intuitive enough. I agree with the notion that I wouldn't want to skip something by accident and then the game launches me head-on into something when I wasn't ready.
Himself said:
While true, he's also gone on record on saying that he has no problem with doing sequels (and moreover, wouldn't mind seeing some of that "sequel" money).
Besides, I'd like to think that there's a part of him that does wish that he had the chance to make a sequel to a game he started (DMC, VJ or Okami) on his time and terms. He may finally have that chance with Bayo. And if the whole idea of "going at from a different viewpoint" really comes to mind, then he may still get his chance to do something different within the Bayonetta structure anyway...
