Bayonetta 2 Discussion Mega Thread

[CrazyT]

It does suck indeed. I mean there are ways but I imagine it would be very expensive and require too much effort if you ordered it from abroad, traded the discs and then sold the US case with the EU discs back to europe.

Anyway i'm quite surprised and glad with the effort that's put into bayonetta 2. They're giving the game a lot of exposure and lol at that playmate cosplaying bayonetta... I guess nintendo isnt that stupid to ignore the great reception and not build on that momentum

Well got the game and its just more of the same (hardly looks any different) and while that maybe good enough for some .. to me its just a very well made action game, but have played and owned far better

I've been replaying the first game before playing 2, I'd forgotten how good it is! The Wii-U port is very nice too, I'm playing default costume, but the new ones look fun as well (might be a little broken).
I'm surprised they bothered to implement touch controls, is there really anyone who'll be using those to play the game?

I didn't even bother with touch controls when I played the demo. I liked W101, but I do not want touch screen nonsense when playing Bayonetta. I'll have to try out the pro controller, forgot the game used that.

Much better and so is Ninja Gaiden 1 . Both happen to be the best action games around imo , but I doubt you've ever played them, much less finished them

And that's why no one takes you seriously anymore TA.

Ninja Gaiden is better than Bayonetta?

Yeah I'm thinking of getting the pro controller too. After playing the first 2 chapters, the standard Wiiu gamepad is my last remaining hangup with this game. It's not terrible, but that 360 controller just pampered me too much.

[ROJM]

Exactly my point...its not suited for a game like BAYONETTA 2..or 1...

Also, I gotta say, my fears of Nintendo being rubbed in my face throughout this game have subsided. That intro was awesome. Kinda makes me wish as I did when I first got the WiiU, that Sega would just double down on the WiiU and release all of their titles for it solely. Make it sega console by default. I know it's not gonna happen though.

Also, I'm definitely sure now that sega had creative involvement with this game. Alex the kid? Fuggettabowdit!

How would you guys feel about a Wii-U Vanquish?

[ROJM]

JASON F'ing Lee...when he was cool ...and before he did Earl....listen to the man...WHAT?

[ROJM]

To me that's what they should have done with BINARY DOMAIN at least was make it into a launch title for PS4 /XBO...it would have had a better chance in making a profit than it did on a system full of those games..and VANQUISH 2 and other titles Sega had would have benefited if they released it on a system like Wii U for the west first and then go to Japan. But oh well. HOUSE OF THE DEAD OVERKILL 2 would have benefited  if Sega continued their western plans..

[Randroid]

Definitely. Hold out for a next gen release, beef up the graphics/framerate and release it on PC at the same time. Would have stood out a lot more than it did. All new original Sega IPs are going to have this problem now where if they are released on platforms with many titles of the same genre, they simply won't get noticed or will be dismissed outright for having a Sega label, only to be touted as hidden gems 6 months later. 

I recalled Binary Domain on release being endlessly dismissed as a Gears of War clone. That remark would have benefited the game as a Wii-U exclusive as it had no Gears of War equivalent.

One thing Sega nailed was SSAR:Transformed. Perfect timing! All the platforms didn't have major Kart racers out and it got the spotlight it deserved. Sega has to be sooo careful with their timing now.

Do you think Sega can even release new IPs on the next gen consoles anymore? Thank Neptunia they got Atlus! Sneaking their new IPs through Atlus will get them attention on the PS4/XB1 again.

I ended up getting a Nyko Commander controller, it's cheaper than the official Pro controller and it's actually very good.
