I'm surprised you fell for my obvious bait/trolling.
I can never tell if you're joking or not, lol. Regardless though, that argument always does sorta get to me. I think people misunderstand that the issue some have with Bayonetta isn't that she's a strong female, it's that her characterization seems a bit dated; Maybe more reminiscent of a time when developers felt that male gamers wouldn't have any interest in a female main character unless she was tearing her clothes off every 5 seconds.
I can maybe accept the argument that the character of Bayonetta may have been meant as a satire of this type of thing, but if that was the case then the writing (IMO) didn't take this idea far enough.
And again, that's not why I personally disliked the character. I just found her to be annoying.
Although I get the feeling you're playing the game for the wrong reasons, or just don't like action games, which is fine. I guess...
It's not true that I don't like action games. Honestly though I found the character, her portrayal, and her voice to be irritating. It's a matter of preference of course, but Bayonetta herself plays such a major role in the game that it's hard to sort of enjoy it if you dislike her.
That's always the risk you run when you develop a character who's so over the top. With someone like Lightning from FF13 or Jack from MadWorld or the female Shepherd from Mass Effect, even if you don't really like these characters, they're sort of subdued and it's unlikely that you'd find them to be "annoying." Characters like Bayonetta or Travis from No More Heroes are so incredibly over the top and by that nature, you run the risk of them alienating various people.
Some people like the character, and I get that. Some people find the character to be exploitative, and I get that. I personally don't really agree with either point, I just found her to be irritating.
But not liking the soundtrack? That just makes me sick.
haha I thought the Fly Me to the Moon song was amusing the first time, I didn't need to hear it every 5 seconds though.
Things that is different
- Square jaw vs sharpish jaw
- Mole under lip
- Different ears
- Different hair colours
- Eyes and eyebrows are completely different
- Bayonetta has a slender nose
Things they share
- Wear glasses
- Are white
- Both are females
I'm still failing to see the resemblance.
lol dude I didn't say they got Sarah Palin down to every microscopic detail..........but yeah, I don't really know what else to say, I look at that picture and see definitively that they look alike. I'm surprised you'd even post that picture because when I look at it, all I see is "wow, they look alike."
saying Bayonetta looked like Sarah palin was just the game industy's and game magazines attempt to get attention from the mainstream world...hey this video game character looks like palin...come on CNN..come on ABC news, look at us!"
Sad and pathetic really...
Or maybe they just thought she looked like her.
I mean look it's a matter of opinion, you either think she does or doesn't. But I have trouble not seeing the resemblance, to be honest.
Not that it really matters (I was somewhat joking when I listed that as a major reason why I didn't like the character) but yeah...I can't really see how you guy don't see it.
