Bayonetta 2 |OT| The time has come, and so have Wii!
- Thread starter Nemesis_
- Start date
it's more quick and crisp like 3rd Strike. also, the input window is huge, you can mash it, and makes the final difficulty pretty easy.

Picking this game up after work! Excited!
Thanks for the response.
The First Print Edition is sold out in the UK so the SE with Bayo1+2 is the one I was after.

Sitting here in my office, trying to figure out what the hell I was thinking (or not thinking) when I decided not to take the day off today.

Not at all.
If it's like Bayo1 then it's a very casual and mash friendly use of the parry/block mechanic.
Just tap forward while attacking and you are pretty much guaranteed to get a block or parry if the enemy attacks, on any difficulty.
It's very important and needs to be bought as soon as possible along with Bat Within, unless you want to get locked into big enemy combos.

Downloading both beauties now!
I haven't really used my Wii U much so sorry if this is stupid, but is there really no way of not having the same footage shown on my tv and gamepad? I liked how wonderful 101 had a unique screen, but in this it feels incredibly pointless.
The gamepad display turns right back on when I press any button.

It is? I dunno why, but I had an easier time parrying in MGR than ever in Bayonetta.

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
Did you play on normal? The parry window in MGR on normal is large.
I played MGR on Hard and the parry window was still what I would consider "forgiving".

The parry window on anything not Revengeance is fuckin' HUGE in MGR
The hardest difficulty of MGR is really easy due to how overpowered parrying is. Perfect parries do a huge amount of damage.
I'm finding bayonetta 2 pretty easy too, I didn't even get hit durig the 6th chapter boss. I still only got a gold award though...

Will be picking my preorder up later this afternoon or evening. I think I'll be preordering Smash Bros U as well.

Off to go pick my copy up here in a few!
MGR is different in that the harder the difficulty the smaller the parry window. In Bayonetta it stays the same regardless.
Hard isn't much different from Normal in MGR.
That was the beauty of that mode, it was do or die for both you and the enemy.
damn

iTunes I believe they said.
Don't go to the wedding. You never know, she may get married again one day but Bayonetta 2 only releases today.
Itunes has it for 3 bucks

So hard waiting until Black Friday to get a Wii U. I want this game so badly.
Just picked this up on impulse while getting Fantasy Life at Nintendo World. Never played Bayonetta or any other Platinum game before. Haven't even played many "action" type games to be honest.
Guess I was just curious about it and wanted to check it out. I'm still not sure what genre the series is lol.

Didn't quite catch on like Survival Horror did, but it's still a decent genre name.
Would a Pro controller be recommended or does the gamepad hold up in long play sessions?
I played through Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge with the gamepad and there were moments when I wish I had something else in my hand due to it cramping up at times. Though that could just be due to that specific game because you have to constantly be moving and dodging.

Also been wondering if I should grab a pro controller (or something else)...
What does that even mean though?

Doesn't matter what it means, its provocative. It gets the people going
Ever played Devil May Cry?
There is a style meter and it fills up based on how stylishly and well you play.
The good games in this genre usually have depth akin to a fighting game.
You'll be so pleased to find out for yourself. It's been one of my personal favorite genres since I bought Devil May Cry on day 1 when I was 16 years old. I remember getting home after school and picking up my pre-order from Software Etc, and the first time I swung a demon up in the air and held him there with two pistols.
I was like "NOW THIS IS A FUCKING ACTION GAME"
You get to experience that today.

I feel like there's a joke to be made here...
Sadly, I won't be joining in on the fun until Sunday. Holding off so I can use it to get the $30 GCU deal at Best Buy.
Only played the first one for about 20 minutes before, so I'm pretty much brand new to the game. How does the difficulty compare to DMC3 (original, not SE)? Beat that on normal and got maybe halfway through on hard before moving on to other things, but that's about the only similar game I've played before.

Man. The memories. I worked at EBgames and we got the game in a week early as a free copy for one of the staff. The manager didn't play those types of games so she asked me if I wanted it. I freaking loved it. Told people "Pre-order this fucking game NOW!"
There is a recurring humanoid boss in this ala Vergil/Jeanne.
