You know, they could try to develop the mental characteristics of villans and protagonists in video games. Some of the best character designs in comics were in fact designs and development of the mind. Its not about what the character is wearing(to me anyways) its about why the character fights and what led them to fight instead of going by it in a normal way. Mental development is a way more important that how the said character does combat. Dev’s have the combat mechanics down, the have the visual aspects down and they have the music down pat so why cant video games take it to the next level and develop their characters and give them intentional character weaknesses and interesting personality traits? Is this too much to ask out of a video games that I pay $60 for nowadays?(I know in the olden days they were upwards of $100 but I’M paying for it now and that makes a difference.)
I realize it sounds preachy and I may be missing the point or whatnot but that’s my thought on the subject.
the more action games of this genre the better, I am extremely bored right now of waiting. God Of War III is far far away from release and Bayonetta & MadWorld will fill our hunger for the action genre and haters can just eat it.
GodHand was one my favorite games at the end of last gen and I am dieing for more of this genre.
If you are turned off by Bayonetta then you can just play your redneck space marine games and STFU
The games system looks tight, I hope they show more on the engine later this year. I mean sure the character designs aren’t the best…but if the game is good thats all that matters.
You know, I get real tired of people complaining about new shit. Its always something with them. Oh the graphics suck, oh the character development is shit, and etc. When really they’re just casual gamers that just dont know fuckshit. Graphics? Have you bitches ever played Contra for the NES? Good shit, huh? This game’s not original? Hmmmm. Do you know why games like Okami, Jet Set Radio, and Beyond Good and Evil are sleeper hits? BECAUSE THEY’RE ORIGINAL!!! Character Development? Hey, go play MGS4. And if you start complaining about the cutscenes, im gonna bitchslap you with a boat oar.
When a new game comes out I’m going to criticize. When It comes from a highly praised game development group I’ll have high expectations of it. If a game is hyped as the next new thing and it turns out to be mediocre then that to me is WORSE the the game actually sucking ass.
I’m sorry if that offends you.
I think that the point of shooting fireballs in game is to look cool and this game seems to fail on that front.
Based on less than three minutes of gameplay footage, there’s no reason to assume any of that shit won’t be in the game.
How the hell does it seem forced as opposed to DMC? Calling guns on feet retarded is useless, cause reason goes right out the window with games like this.
If I could shoot fireballs, I wouldn’t kick people in the face.
I read fine. I still don’t get how campy cut scenes correlate to smooth or choppy animation. IMO means nothing. It’s not like anything that doesn’t have “imo” typed right after it is meant to be absolute truth. At least you have serious complaints about the game. Lotta people just looking for reasons to hate.
There’s so many reasons to assume the game will be good, and so little to assume it’ll be bad.

“it’s a game by Kamiya and a studio that hasnt delivered a bad game so far”
This thread has peeked the RETARDED BITCHING meter. No more hope for this thread so I’m unsubscribing from here. Hope you guys have fun ripping your hairs out of your asses for a game that has 3 minute footage. Godspeed.
admittedly, i lack smooth transitions in my arguments.
the campy cuts-cences vs. in game animations was not structured well.
allow me to elaborate, dmc3 and 4 had campy cut-scenes: motorcycle kung-fu, random allusions to shakespeare, but the actual game play was fluid, it transitioned well between switching weapons, attack types, styles, and targets.
with a character design like the main character in bayonetta, the biggest concern i would have is the actual transitions in the combat (high to low attacks and attack animations), the death traps are a cool idea, but if not implemented well, would be disappointing.
12 pages summed up in 6 words. I know this is the internet/SRK but fuck folks, it’s something different at the very least. Can’t someone enjoy something that’s just so blatantly over the top if a girl is involved without “OMG SHE HAS A PUSSY AND GETS NAKED UR A 14 YEAR OLD FAPPING OLOLOLOL”
The way people complain about her it’s like they expect something fucking amazing out of a genre geared towards meaningful hack and slashing.
HI IM A NINJA (Ninja Gaiden!)
HI IM A DEMON (Devil May Cry!)
HI IM A TOOL (God of War)
HI IM A WALKING VAGINA (BAYONETTA)
Seriously, what the FUCK are you people expecting here, some artistic piece de resistance to be shown off at the Louvre? That’s like walking into a standard popcorn action flick and expecting a work of Shakespeare.
Learn to have some fucking fun. Rejoice in it being over the top, you’ll get ALOT more enjoyment out of it instead of complaining about her fucking glasses (I can’t even believe you sorry fucks went there, I really can’t).
Kurt Vonnegut level of script at the minimal (bonus for those that get that one)
John Williams score, artwork by John Bolton. Any game that doesn’t attain similar levels of brilliance fails automatically.
too be honest, i will prolly never get this game or ever play it, but i am hoping the younger generation will have fun playing a crazy ass game filled with sex, violence, and an attention to detail like back when i was a kid
