New Bayonetta trailer

:lol
 
I do wish they'd show more gameplay.

These trailers are great, but they're only like 10% gameplay.

I still have concerns about QTEs. From the little bit I've seen, I'm thinking (hoping) that they're QTEs the way DMC4 had QTEs, which is to say not at all.
 
They will show a shit ton of this @ E3 w/out a doubt. Can't wait for direct feed/offscreen HD gameplay captures. Shit is soooo over the top, I freaking love it.

Holy fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck was that awesome or what?! :O
This game will be better than NG2+DMC4 COMBINED. I'm calling it right now.

Agreed. As someone who loves NG2 and appreciated DMC4 far more than most, I assumed this was hyperbole. Then I saw the trailer.

The energy ball mechanic looks awesome. Great to have a couple of examples to show off how it works in game. And the QTE seemed reasonable. I couldn't help but wonder why the example in the trailer couldn't have been done with the jump button, but I know I'm not seeing it in context. In the end QTE quality is all about how fair the game is with inputs and timing, so it's impossible to judge from the video.

The torture-device finishers look fantastic. I'm also intrigued by the bike section. It might have been the way the trailer was cut, but it looked like the cutscene transitioned seamlessly into gameplay. Nice effect if I'm seeing it correctly.
 
So awesome.

But fuck QTEs. I still believe in you Kamiya, if you feel you must use this shit make it as sparse as possible.

:lol

Also love her eyeroll, the cheesy blink at the end and the entire lack of serious business. She's amazingly insane and cool.
 
"Yes, GAF. You like Kamiya's hot white foam all over your faces, don't you?" :lol


Oh, I love this game, the more I see it. Welcome back, Kamiya. You and your new girl need to take back what's rightfully yours, in this genre.
 
Just saw the trailer.

I'm sold

lot of Crow eating around here:lol


cant fuckin wait
Mostly fanaticism so far. I'll wait until the release to decide who will have to eat crow. Or E3, if they will have it on the show floor.
 
Considering it looks A LOT like DMC4 I'm not sold on the whole "OMG best action game ever" just because it has boobs and ridicule in it's cutscenes. Will wait for a demo.

Looks really nice though. God Hand waits.

EDIT: Driving sections? Ugh...

it's the creativity of the whole thing that sells it for me. it looks like there will nearly always be something interesting or different happening, although it is obviously hard to say having only seen bits and piece of the game.

It's the thing that DMC4 lacked, I feel.

"-Bayonetta drops F-bombs

-the right shoulder button dodges, by dodging at the last minute, Witch Time is triggered; this activates the purple world that can be seen in the newest trailer.

-you can practice combos during the loading screens; combos are listed on the side of the screen for the weapon you have equipped, and the amount of times you used those combos is listed as well. Loading times do not take long though, but you can opt to stay on the screen longer to practice by pressing a button.

-if you hold down an attack button in the middle of a combo, you'll cancel out the sequence with a flurry of attacks from your chosen limb. If you complete a combo and wait half a beat before tapping a button, you'll execute a deadly hair-fist or hair-boot attack.

-when you pick up an enemies' weapon, you have the option of using two different attacks, which drain the weapons' stamina until it breaks; or you can opt to use the whole stamina bar for a flashy special attack.

-Bayonetta can use her hair fists to lift up cars and throw them at enemies

-Bayonetta can reverse gravity and run up a wall and shift the camera to have that area as the new plane. (This can be seen in the new trailer)

-Kamiya-san predicts a playtime of around 12 hours. But "You'll be shocked at how much content is in there" says Kamiya-san.

-Each chapter of Bayonetta is broken up into 10 verses, with each being roughly two minutes in length. Some verses consist of a series of enemy encounters, a single boss fight, or a mad dash through a crumbling area. Some even allow you to explore, where you can break the surrounding to get items, or simply move on. At the end of each verse, you'll be scored based on how well you fought and how much health you have left, and you'll recieve medals for your score. At the end of the chapter you're medals are tallied and you recieve a statue.

-There are hidden verses within the set ones, these are discovered in many ways. (Think of them as the "secret" levels in the old Mario Bros. games)

-Some verses roll directly into eachother, linked by event scenes that sometimes have QTEs (also seen in the new trailer).

-QTEs appear in event scenes, certain boss fights, and in the "climax moves" used to finish each boss fight.

-Kamiya-san's goal is to create a gameplay experience so deep that it will be impossible to experience everything in one playthrough

-Achievments and Trophies will be linked to the game engine in an interesting way.

-Also, Kamiya-san noted: "Don't think of it as 'There's no DLC for the game,' but more like 'All the DLC is already in the box.'""
 
Wow after that wall of quotes, I'm sold. Sold I tell you!

The combo system sounds very smart and easy to use. And I'm loving the fact that you can use items in battle. Gives the game more charm I'm sure.

-Also, Kamiya-san noted: "Don't think of it as 'There's no DLC for the game,' but more like 'All the DLC is already in the box.'""

The man's a saint.
