Congratulations on making the worst thread I've seen in a while.

>>377206581
I tried it and appreciated the style and aesthetics, clearly developers had some vision. However, I just can't play beat'em ups and DmC-likes, so I refunded.

oh look its this autist again

It's hard, i mostly got stone statues.
I like MG:R a lot more because you can repeat any instance as much as you like and it doesn't affect your final score.
When game constantly telling you that you are bad it doesn't encourage you to keep playing.
Story and combat are okay.

Making this thread useful and worth more than the shit premise ou have oitlined. Been trying this crackpot scheme to "make Kamiya sempai notice me" since he is known to lurk. Or did that one time.
Posting Ideafaggotry:

I think it's high time I post this idea that's been stewing in the back of my mind for years since Bayo 1 and it has just occured to me to complete it with Balder.
One has to ponder where the natural progression in this story will go and how and where that will make Kamiya take it. In Bayonetta 3, simply put, I want the story and mechanics in the game to be expanded on so that in this iteration; Bayo unlocks the Lumen side of her blood and becomes the first being to birth Lumen/Umbran dual arts. The first female to -ever- weild Lumen powers and a massively offensive bastardization of the status quo, garnering the full wrath of Paradiso and Inferno.
Jesus anons imagine how fucking stellar Bayo will look in Lumen then some orignial Lumen/Umbran garb. Have it be revealed that this was all apart of based Balder's (and Rosa's) -real- keikaku to upend the status quo of both Angels and Demons (of which he despises -both-) and kill Jubileus and give her eyes to his beloved daughter and, through her, humanity. All his prior douchbaggery was an act and in reality his goal was always to create the greatest world for his daughter and to rip away power from any immortal being. Even his "corruption" by Loptr was a ruse and he simply removed his memories before Loptr ever infected him so he could not discover his true intentions whilst inside him. He knows that the providence and love of Paradiso and the rebeliouness of Inferior, while -admirable- are fucking wasted on worthless immortal Angels and Demons and only humanity is worthy of it. A full on reverse-Zamasu.

>>377208882
Bayonetta herself reflects this by adopting a sort of meta mischievous-virtue (which has always been her nature), an acknowledgment that Paradiso's virtue and Inferno's freedom are king but a rejection of Angels' elitism & control and Demons' hedonism & rage. Just imagine her in veiled in Lumen light embracing virtue but with a shit eating grin and a pechant for anarchy. Just a before with little to no alteration to her personality. Great right?

Geting into the actual gameplay; reality would get all kinds of fucked up and quantum-mutated fusions of Angel and Demon would start to appear as enemies. Mechanically this would manifest as a new dimension of gameplay on the same (or greater) level of nuance as dodge-offset; Lumen and Umbran weapons and attacks would need to be switched between and chosen as these chaotic enemies weaknesses to Paradiso and Infero wax & wane with visual indication. Different enemies would have different shift patterns and different metas needed to combat them.
I showed this pasta to a friend before I made a thread about it and he said:
>"Yeah dude this sounds exactly like the whole Nephilim thing from DMC"
>W-whats that?
>"Well take a look online; Dante's whole schtick is that he is half Angel half Demon so in the game he can switch between their powers like, but not quite, this thing you cooked up for Bayo."
>Well shit
Honestly rained on my parade because I came up with this from the ground up with Bayo only with ziltch knowledge of DMC lore.
Tell me to what extent this sounds like a blatant rip-off.
Overall I think this nicely addresses an obviously common curiosity on the part of players wondering what it would be like to play as a Lumen Sage. We've all thought of it.

It's not a dub. The game has no Japanese version.

If it makes you feel better he's talking about the shitty DmC reboot where Dante says 'fuck you' a million times. I think if Bayo 3 did something similar to what you said it'd make more sense for that series and would probably be better designed.

For a 2009 game it's quite demanding, my toaster can run Mgr at 60fps but for Bayonetta it's 15~30

What a surprise, another shit eater that didn't actually play the game he's shitposting about.

>>377206581
>shit combat
elaborate

First few chapters were GOAT but then they ran out of ideas/time and started copypasting shit. I soured on it pretty quick.

Cutscenes were ridiculously long/plentiful and I'm never watching them again.

What the fuck is up is gookmoot holding us hostage?

>>377206581
I already loved it on 360 and loved it on pc as well.
Got all achievements and Platinumed most of it (not pure Platinum though).

Bump for ideafaggotry

The gameplay is great but the QTE's and story aren't engaging and/or frustrating. Ultimately, I like the game.

But it's not a dub, you fucking moron. The fucking director of the game himself says the English version is the official and canon one.

Bayonetta's powers, for that matter, the umbran powers and lumen powers, are not genetic, they are gained through contracting with a being from inferno or paradiso and training. Bayonetta is not biologically special. In order for her to gain lumen powers she would need to contract with an angel, probably not happening. Besides what would change? Lumen sages haven't shown anything particularly unique about their combat styles compared to umbran witches. What are they gonna do expand rodin? Map angel weapons to x, like they initially had?

Not happening.

>>377206581

>>377216993
>Bayonetta's powers, for that matter, the umbran powers and lumen powers, are not genetic, they are gained through contracting with a being from inferno or paradiso and training. Bayonetta is not biologically special.
I do not regect the notion that people may simply seek out the Lumen and Umbran way without being born into an Sage/Witch family, (though this isn't implicitly stated) but their is presumably a reason other than cultural why Lumen/Umbran interbreeding is verboten.
This is where I introduce a not-impossible headcannon that aquisition of of either the Lumen or Umbran mantle of power, normally, directly disallows the other. Bayonetta, being the aberration that she is, is saved from this by blood hax as, again, all acording to keikaku.
Accepted, this means the she IS biologically special just that Sages or Witches arn't usually -supposed- to be.

In this first thread I answered an anon's question asking how her first usage of Lumen powers would be handled mechanically, to which I answered:
>Maybe something involving amnesia where she just striaght up thinks she's a Lumen for several chapters. Or not, probably a beter way to write her first use of Lumen powers than that. Unsure.
>Maybe she discovers the keikaku (all "Oh daddy you were a based motherfucker all along!") And decides to possess a Joy to learn shit first under her own initiative... yeah that sounds better. Have her actually be seen as a Lumen tinkerer (all sexy librarian like) all hush and devious as the implications of the ideology she knows she needs to create becomes more and more known to her.
>Have this be a stark contrast to the 'her being swept up in events' themes of the last two games. SHES the one setting shit into motion now.
So she still requires the training and discovery (handled inventively by her) just that her parentage makes holding Lumen/Umbran powers in one person not impossible.

>>377206581
>Is it worth to play only for the story?

No, the story never really gets more interesting than "You're a witch, you fight angels because reasons, also, there's an evil god."

The lore is kinda cool if you care about that sort of thing but if you're not into the gameplay there isn't much there for you.

I only gave it a quick try, and what the fuck was up with that initial sequence? It looked so unbearably grainy and blurred and it was a clusterfuck of enemies all around, but not in a fun way. It was a complete fucking mess, what a way to introduce a game.

>>377219362

>>377220662
Shut up, white boy.

bayonetta is the most typical of all AAA games

the one factor they all have in common is that there are 100 different ways to achieve the one and only goal, which is to make a single enemy type die

there's a point at which you need enemy variety, this is the real reason why dark souls became so popular

>>377220694
In all fucking honesty, refunding something you don't like isn't a white thing. Anyone with a fucking brain would do it. Flaunting around the fact that have more dollars than brain cells truly is something reddit would do, just take a look at literally any of the pictures they post on their cancer ridden layout website.

I'm going to get it, but since I already have the 360 version I'm not willing to buy it until it's on sale for like $5. Not that I'm willing to buy any game until it's on sale for that or less, but at least this time I have more of an excuse.

Correction: There was no Japanese audio until the Wii U version.

I bought it on PC last weekend because I had craving for some "button masher" game. So far so good altough Im getting pretty rekt on Normal.

My options so far:
Some training ground to practice combos would be nice.
Sometimes too long cut scenes.
I would prefer more fighting. Sometimes it's like 4 enemies and then nothing.
Those railroad levels are rather shit

>>377219462
The thing is though, it clearly shows he has no interest in the genre.

So no, he isn't wrong to say he doesn't like it, and you parroting his post doesn't make it hold any more weight like you seem to think it would.

Yep. Playing on NSIC with japanese audio + shuraba + the umbran komachi couture bullet = fun

>>377222232
Good to know. I bought it when it came out, but have yet to touch it.

I just grinded sai-fung in a different version, before the game was announced for PC and am rather burned out.

But hey, it got me $5 off Vanquish, which I haven't played in quite some time, so that'll be fun.

How the FUCK are you supposed to get platinum score on Chapter 14? I've watched some dude play through it on non-stop infinite climax, and he killed LESS enemies than me and still got platinum for combo score.
Do I HAVE to use the Gaze of Despair just for the normal fighting segments on the rocket? Do they make that much of a difference compared to the shooting gallery?
Or does normal difficulty have higher score requirement for some reason?

>>377206581

bayonetta > dmc4

As someone who's played all the way through the DMC series but never Bayonetta until now,

>>377243103
>DmC
Never played it (or any DMC), so if you could elaborate on how it worked in that game I could expand on how/if the idea I have as it exists in my head is different from it.

Honestly I am imagining something only very general and my prose intended so a dev could plug his expertise into it & translate it into workability. I don't care WHAT actual mechanics are introduced only that they
1. are inherently novel
2. justify this Lumen/Umbran premise I have set up
3. satisfy my statement: "[...]mechanically this would manifest as a new dimension of gameplay on the same (or greater) level of nuance as dodge-offset[...]"

>Love the idea of Balder being a benevolent mastermind but that's just because I love Balder in 1 when he was a smarmy cunt
