Current Events > So, I've started playing the Bayonetta series this week. My thoughts inside.

(+) Yeah! (+)

I've just playing Bayonetta 2. Can't complain about the graphics, which are excellent. The combat, which I suppose is the focus of the game, seems like good fun. Not sure yet. Quite intense, some button mashing, nice mix of shooting and melee. Challenging, even early on. The wandering around locations seems kinda boring, though, with the chance of getting confused about which direction to head in, possibly. Personally, I hate cutscenes, but the ones in this are pretty good (for cutscenes). Bayonette mouthing off against other characters, in her sloaney accent, and pushing the plot forward. Music is pretty bad, what I've heard so far is mostly cheesy J-pop (or possibly K-pop), but that's weeb games for you, huh?

I really only have about 90 minutes in Bayonetta 2, so I don't really know what I think...but it does seem fun. As long as the focus is combat, rather than passing the game with wandering around (beautiful) locales.

Thoughts on what I've said?

Surprised nobody has anything to say on this. Especially with all the people that *claim* they're really looking forward to Bayonetta 3.
