seeing as earning all platinum is never going to be possible for me.
By the way do you need to meet some specific requirements to get record pieces? Beat the game and only acquired the whip and katana. Are they hidden somewhere or something?
Also where the hell is the last journal entry? All the others where placed pretty much directly in your path.

So I beat the game on normal. This is by far the best game I've played in a long time. Likely the action game of the generation by a good margin and so far, the best new IP of this generation.
After I beat it on Normal, I tried hard mode. I can't even get past the prolouge! Please tell me it gets more manageable after the prolouge I don't get to carry over my weapons and items by starting up a hard difficulty?
How do I keep playing and stacking up my character?

Best game I've played in a bloody long time. Will be going back to it to get all the unlockables and achievements. So awesome. So very very awesome. The post credit video is amazing.

Finished the game on Normal this afternoon. Good stuff. My only complaints are in the visual department, mainly in respect to the tearing and framerate issues (especially the last few chapters or just when there's a lot of shit going on). This is definitely the echelon of action games. Now to finish all the Alfheims and tackle Hard (managed to squeeze by the prologue, so indeed, Hard is Hard).

Getting Platinum in all Chapters is quite easy, actually (on Normal, at least) if you know how exploit the checkpoint system. If a fight isn´t going too well (getting hit) you just have to go back to the Title Screen, and select Continue from the menu. That way you can keep trying till you perfect every fight of the chapter. With this method, you don´t even have to do the Alfheims. Altough I´d still recommend to do them, at least the very easy ones.
And is it me, or activating the Gaze of Despair makes the OoB Alfheims easier? I tried it once, and it looked like the enemies where more focused on killing me, rather than hitting the bubble. I need to test it again, to see if it really works...
This game is amazing, BTW. I´ve been playing it for 60 hours already and I just can´t stop. I already have all the achievements and unlockables (except Little Zero), but I still haven´t started my Jeanne run, and I only tried the Lost Chapter once (I got owned in Verse 2, LOL) The only thing I don´t really like about the game is that in order to play the best boss fight in the game, you first have to play 10 minutes of boredom (really, the first time is fun, but on subsequent replays it gets annoying)
DMC3 and NGB were the kings of the genre, but Bayonetta is now the undisputed Queen of Action Gaming (to me, at least)
Bye

I'm surprised by how easy the boats are now. Once I realised I could jump on them, they were dead in seconds.
Oh, and the kimono actually looks really cool in game. I like that it gives you three colour options, as 'tacky' a feature it is. I really appreciate all these little extras in this game that a dev like Capcom would charge for as DLC. There's so much about this game that reminds me of the good things that are missing nowadays that used to be in AAA games last gen.

of you buy a gold moon (or whatever it's called) in the Witch Attack mini-game, it will raise your life/magic for one chapter only.Blueblur1 said:
I think im making it harder than it needs to be. I always try to get the extra stuff and in this game they give you penalties for using items and all of that, so i dont really stock up on green things all the time. Im getting stone awards already so i shouldnt care at this point for buying all the items i need.twenty1 said:

Viewtiful Joe is the coolest.
Dodge Offset (others have explained it - but I'll put it on this page too).
If you input the P-P-P-P portion of the combo and then dodge, it stands to reason that your combo would be stopped mid-stream, and you would have to start it all over again. To get to the Wicked Weave finisher, you would have to input the P-P-P... sequence once more. This is where Dodge Offset comes into play.
Dodge Offset is a technique that allows you to continue a combo after you have dodged an enemy attack. It is very simple to execute. When you execute your dodge, you continue to hold down the attack button (punch or kick) that you pressed immediately prior to the dodge. Heres an example: If you are attacked while inputting the P-P-P-P string, hold down the P attack on the fourth press and then dodge while holding. After the dodge has been completed, pressing K will summon the Wicked Weaver finisher that ends the combo.

Unlocking costumes through gameplay is so much more rewarding, too, not only free. It's exactly how it should be. So many games either ignore or greatly trivialize unlockables through gameplay because they end up selling them later on (and frequently not very long after release). Hate the trend of a lot of the DLC this gen.
There's plenty of content already packed into Bayonetta and they aren't asking the players to pay for any relatively small stuff, since it's already included, so I'd gladly buy some DLC for this game. Plus, it doesn't hurt that the game is spectacular.

ARRRGH.
Any tips on the Chapter VII boss? He's simple as hell but I lose SO MUCH LIFE going up his arm. Any tips? I tried going Panther but the smoke still gets me, I tried jumping and dodging but the CARS AND SHIT get me.

this is actually very helpful. I was wondering how to do that stuff.jabipun said:

I didnt have a problem there. You are able to run around the entire arm so try not running straight up it. Just dodge everything. I dont remember there being a specific tactic.

I really think we should stop saying DLC.
Burnout Paradise Big Surf Island = DLC
108kb keys to unlock content on the disc = ROC
Saying that, it will be fun as heck unlocking stuff for this. The bonus extras you get is awesome. I love extras.

Same. This game is awesomely old-school in a lot of ways. I love that about it. Loved that about Demon's Souls as well, though it's old-school in a different way.

Bayonetta might be the coolest game character ever.
TheCardPlayer said:
I would have to agree with this. Viewtiful Joe comes in a close second.
DMC1 Dante was cool, until he stooped to Megaman X4 Zero levels of cheese with "LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT". :lol
Bayonetta definitely has what it takes to be Sega's newest and coolest face. She and Kiryu Kazuma (RGG/Yakuza) are basically among the best things that have happened to Sega in many moons.
How can anyone get over the terrible characters, awful writing and horribly directed scenes to say this game is "incredible" and "excellent"? Everytime there's a cut scene I regret buying the game, even if I skip them I don't escape it all. I enjoy the gameplay, it's great but it is wrapped up in such awful presentation that I don't know if I will make it all the way through. I haven't heard a single murmer about the game being anything but great so I didn't expect it to be this bad, are people just viewing it through rose tinted glasses because of who made it?

Part of the reason I love the game is due to the cutscenes being absolutely ridiculous. If you are looking for a serious presentation stick to DMC but I think the characters and the strange world they inhabit are part of the charm. Like I said earlier, I was surprised I even gave a damn about them by the end but I did.
