The one thing is, Bayonetta is fast as fuck, and you're usually facing many enemies.
Witch Time is needed.

Nier Automata, going by the demo and trailers so far, is much slower, enemies have super slow tells, and attack sparsely, even in large groups you're given a lot of time to think everything over, witch time seems over kill so far, though i like that is there, hopefully in later parts of the game, enemies pick up the slack in that sense.
 
Are all these gifs just from test environments or the real game? A lot of the footage I have seen just makes the game seem lifeless and dead. Combat looks ace though so I am still intrigued.

I think that's actually what they are going for?

I am not liking the scenaries too. I know it is post apocaliptic and all that, but it is very boring. The factory stage from the demo was very meh too.

The animations, music, combat and style makes up for it though.

I guess that is more what I was meaning, it looks boring.

So its a Platinum Games creation.

i agree. hopefully there's some more variety in the game.
 
Oh, ok. Lol.

Not to devalue your critique or anything lol, but the game is set way way way after humanity died out so the world being lifeless seems to fit? That said the first game had some animals and stuff around so hopefully we'll see *some* wildlife at least :P

We have moose, pig and boars confirmed for now. Still missing the sheep from the first game. Have we seen the fishing journalists have been hyped about yet?

Even a stage of only concrete buildings can be arranged in more or less interesting ways.

I thought the industrial stage of the demo looked good enough, he city ones look uninspired, almost place holder.
