I can't speak for all females, but I think there's also the fact that because "this is not the right thread for it".
Sure, some of us have no problem talking about sexuality represented in the game if the topic comes up, but to spend a post on an in depth opinion about it in a thread about the reviews is probably pushing things far out of "justified reasons to discuss it and still claim it's related to the topic". Particularly when it'd definitely cause a shit storm.
No-one is saying that! No one here has said that and I would love for you to find me examples of someone saying that. And no, if someone calls you priviledged they're not calling your opinion worthless because of your maleness. If someone says that your position is ignorant they're not calling your opinion worthless because of your malenessYes, you are corect to an extent however I am responding to the idea that a discussion can be killed dead because my opinion is worthless because I had the audacity to be born male.
Yeah I also agree that there does seem to be a bit of a disconnect between the character and the way the scenes/camera portrays her in some cases. I think Bayonetta is a very good female character, she's strong, sexy and boy is she confident. That's great, I'd love to see more female characters like that. What isn't so great is when you then have scenes with bullets stripping her of all her clothes and then suggestive camera angles to go along with it happening. Not to mention the camera angles when fights are going on anyway.
It's what always put me off playing the first game. I tried the demo way back when, and while the combat seemed interesting enough. I just didn't think I'd be able to stomach the cutscenes. I'm willing to go back and try it, though maybe not now due to my first edition pre-order being cancelled but it's still disappointing that there is such a disconnect.
Well, again, what else is there to discuss in this topic? How much everyone is happy with the non-dissenting reviews? I guess, that just doesn't seem interesting to me personally.
The one controversial review sparked this discussion, so it seems on topic to me.
Young males, i would add.No. But in the video game medium sexiness and sexual display has been targeted squarely at male sensibilities for decades now
is that so? I'm glad to hear it.
It makes me sad to see so many people that doubted this game would score well.
Forgive them, Bayonetta. They know not what they do.
I wouldn't even call most of that a real discussion. People just popping in to say "good on this game for getting such fantastic scores" isn't really a discussion. So I do agree that it's not exactly interesting to see that happen here.
Do we not have a Bayonetta community thread?
Polygon tappin two plains...
(and Nintendo should just buy Platinum)
Mind if I put this in the OP?
^I think you missed that I view Bayonetta positively. I just yhink the camera movements undermine the otherwise very well done character
Go ahead, Sir!Mind if I put this in the OP?
Sorry if already posted but has there been any footage released of the Wii U version of Bayo 1? I only got through a few hours of the PS3 version around the time it originally released. I booted it back up last night to just play through the opening and man, it really runs like poop. I wanted to jump straight into Bayo 2 but I think I'll be going through the original first.

There's tons of footage and even a Digital Foundry comparison to the other versions.Sorry if already posted but has there been any footage released of the Wii U version of Bayo 1?
