Not to mention the fricking sniper frick that shits on it's ass while you wait to bait it's parries. This his tis just fricking annoying and already makes me hate playing Viola.

      the trick if you're still stuck is to summon cheshire during witch time when fighting the floccus. that seems to extend the witch time duration and cheshire will do huge damage to him.
      wave 1 you use the stratus' attacks to block and witch time fight the cavum and then deal with the stratus

        There's no foot slot, whatever weapon you've got equipped has its own sets of punches and kicks.
        For the pistols you get the usual moveset, but for weapons that would be otherwise locked to the hand slot in previous games, they get a full moveset now.

            Like instead of punches and kicks, the club has overhead bashes and wide sweeps.

            I don't get why action games keep making you buy moves. Upgrades I can understand but why do they lock basic shit

            The game's already utterly overwhelming with all the combos you start out with.

        Anonymous

        2's combat is not very precise. UC aside, the need for WT or Weaves to even damage certain enemies is limiting, and while I like the weapon lineup many of them have really basic limited movelists. UC itself railroads Magic use and in almost every instance just lets you slam against enemies to delete them. Some of the best verse scores I've gotten in 2 looked really sloppy.

        Then there's the Sage fights and flying boss fights which explicitly give up precision for spectacle. Trying to get a good clean run on any Lumen Sage fight is an exercise in frustration.

      I'm liking it way more than 2. It's the best parts off kamiya's latest games put together. For example, instead of umbran climax you can now choose to extend your combos with summons, making your weaked weaves hit even harder, this is very similar to the combo system in astral chain.

          You get sync attacks where you press ZL at the end of a combo string to summon your slave for an extra attack but you can also bring the demon out at any time during a regular combo as well.

          Tag Climax mostly sucked due to the format. The other character always got in the way, the 3-star versions of most Verses were absolutely insane and probably not given a single thought for balance, and they locked two whole playable characters behind it. I really like Rodin but barely played him because TC just was not very fun.

            The only character who gets in the way is Rosa with how quickly she dies. I didn't find the rest annoying since they can handle themselves for the most part.
            >the 3-star versions of most Verses were absolutely insane
            Only the ones that spring a human boss on you in them. I thought the 3 stars for the large enemies and bosses like Belief and Urbane were fun. Either way I'd be fine if it didn't come back but not at least having some copy/paste of Bloody Palace in 3 is shitty.

    I'm on level 3, game's just Bayo 2 with gimmicks. So far the demon summons are absurdly overpowered; you can't use them in every battle but they utterly trivialize everything where you can. Shitmobs are unusually hard to dodge, I'm getting grace'd & glory'd while fricking jamming the dodge button like a madman.

    The club's delayed combo timing seems to randomly not work too, super unreliable. reminds me of Okami on the Wii, like it's a combo only if the game feels like it at the moment.

          Feels like a level pack of 2, but it's faster paced if anything. I've yet to see a walking segment, though I usually miss a few optional battles, torture attacks are used on stunned enemies that get stunned by summoning which you can do a lot. The cutscenes are too long.

    Anyone unlocked the hardest difficulty? Very interested in what differences it makes. Particularly curious in whether it increases demon cost.

    Anyway I did 3 chapters and the first 3 weapons and their demons are quite fun. Level traversal feels great with the new movement options, and I feel like they've done a good job introducing a bit of variety to switch things up without going overboard and becoming annoying. Excellent enemy variety too, though I suppose that's never really been a problem for bayo.

    Looking forward to trying Viola tomorrow.

    The game is actually really fun. I was worried the demon slave stuff wouldn’t have any depth but then I saw the skill tree and all the crazy shit the demons and bayo can get. Already much better than bayo 2. The music is great too

    >First game, directed by Kamiya, great combat and tone/aesthetic but with a decent handful of "That Part" bits that drag it down
    >Second game, Kamiya had very little if any connection to its development, has better pacing and cool ideas like a super mode while maintaining great aesthetics but throws a lot of the quality combat and enemy design out the window
    >Third game, Kamiya actually has some input but does not direct the game, best of both worlds with great combat and great pacing while bringing the intensity up to 11 and adding a brand new playable character with a katana into the mix

      I would assume that the Butterfly clan of demons were just Umbra Witches before going to hell. So it is just kind of a no brainer to want to be contracted to them if they can help it.

      The gameplay unit needs to be administered in small doses so as to create a sense of progression and give you something to look forward to. In this type of game, the gameplay unit is each individual move you can chain into your combo. If you started with all of them it'd be an overwhelming early-game for new players and a boring end-game for veterans

      I'm not as concerned with WT being gone on the highest difficulty when the systems have been redesigned how they have been. 2 has a similar setup to 1 but required WT from you within it when 1 didn't and that's the issue there. I do want to know what Extreme does though. I would hope it's more than enemy damage.

      It's literally the only time Bayonetta looked attractive. You're a child.

      She looks great in 1 as well and in most costumes. I'm not huge on twintails but many of the alt universe Bayos are very attractive too.

    I'm normally not one to b***h about the Switch's hardware because I feel its good enough for most games, but this game really feels badly held back by it.

    Its not just the visuals but the scope and spectacle of it all, its like the Switch can barely pull through. Bayo 3 legitimately feels like one of those PS4/Xbox One games that later got ported to the Switch and they had to downgrade a bunch of shit just to make it run, but in this case the Switch version actually is the original version. I almost want to tinfoil hat and say that this game was gonna be a showpiece for a new Switch model that got delayed so the plans fell through.

      I played it on the Switch for like an hour. The framerate fluctuates a lot, constantly jumping from 40 to 60 fps which is very noticable. Meanwhile the cutscenes are supposed to be locked at 30fps but it fluctuates from 29 to 31 fps as well which makes it stutter a lot.

      This. AC was the directorial debut of Automata's game design lead. Taura wasn't on Bayo 3 because he was helping SE with the Replicant remaster and is probably developing either AC2 for Nintendo or another Taro project or both.

      Fly Me to the Moon is still the best. Sets the tone perfectly, has tons of style and energy, acts as a perfect introduction to Bayo's character, is worked in and reintroduced perfectly with the games plot beats, and is even an in universe part of the story.

      Moon River captures the same high energy and style as Fly Me to the Moon but it's barely in the game and is really only there arbitrarily because they did something similar in the first.

      Moonlight Serenade isn't as much as a staple/ cultural juggernaut/ popular as Fly Me to the Moon or Moon River so it's almost kind of unfair. It still fits the theming of "60's lounge standard with a prominent Sinatra version" though. Maybe it ties into the story better.

        From what I've hard they modified how weapons are equipped in this game.

      ...there aren't? are you SERIOUS?

      Weapons are full body now, you have Punch and Kick for them and you can switch between 3 on the fly at a time. They've also got more going on than previous weapons, especially 2's, due to Masquerade and Slavery being unique for each one.

      My main disappointment is the apparent lack of a crossover weapon. Chain Chomp in 2 is so fun, and all the Nintendo costumes had slight changes to guns or Weaves (or provided you the parry without an accessory).

      • 1 year ago
        Anonymous

        Slavery isn't unique to each weapon.
        There is an obvious association, but you can choose whichever 3 Demon Slaves without having the weapon they are tied to.

        More importantly, this does in fact change their shooting type for the first time in the series. So you're essentially changing your gun along with the melee weapon.

      Because it was a limitation unironically. The new weapons have much more fleshed out, unique movesets. It's hard to do that when you have a combo system that connects different weapons together like previous games.

      While there is a ton of weapons I feel like the way you're given them doesn't allow enough time for you to get a feel for them, and they kind of just start swamping you with doubles towards the end and you don't really get enough time throughout the game progression to get a real feel unless you spend a while in the training or you play through older chapters again.

      >that spoiler

      Oh so they did go full Nero with her.

      Never played DMC so I can't answer that, if it's any clarification though the final battle is basically Bayo3 fighting until she dies, then she does just.. die. Which felt incredibly forced. I figured she'd come back to some degree, kind of like in B1 where they hold a funeral for her and she pops out of the casket but they really hammered in that she's dead and Viola is the new Bayonetta, complete with a "To be continued..." after the credits rolled.

      14. Maybe 14.5 if you count a weird post-final level final level to unlock a different weapon. The general pattern of levels after Chapter 3 basically goes Jeanne, Viola, Bayo, Bayo. Jeanne's being the 2D minigame thing and Viola's being an actual chapter.

    Anonymous

    So, just saw the ending on a stream and I can concur with the other anon.

    It was in Japanese so I miss the nuance but near as far as I can tell, the Bayonettas from 1 and 2 fuse together with the one from 3 to form one "Prime" Bayonetta (and I guess implies that Bayo 1 and Bayo 2 were separate ones all along?) and despite this, the final boss is still giving her trouble until Luka shows up to help and together they beat him. Then something happens and Bayonetta starts dying and getting dragged to hell. She and Luka make out as they both get dragged down together while Viola watches. Then the credits roll, there's some extra boss where you fight Bayonetta's evil or something as Viola. Bayo vanishes at the end. Then after the credits, it looks like Viola has started working with Rodin and fulfills the same role that Bayonetta did. So yeah, looks like Bayonetta gets with Luka, dies, then Viola becomes the new main character, and I have no idea where Jeanne is.

    Then there's the standard dance number, but with ded ppl dancing, lmao. Talk about tone-deaf.

    Everybody will absolutely hate Violas shit, she's gonna be despised, they did the Nero the wrong way, they whacked the original cast to push her.

      You got it right for the most part, they showed up as a deux ex machina because B3 was about to die and for some reason b1 and b2 show up. There's 0 explanation, especially because right before this fight you already had the whole Marvel everyone's here moment, Singularity got hit hard enough by b3 to spill out all the variants he absorbed and they all fight him.
      >Then something happens and Bayonetta starts dying and getting dragged to hell.
      Her umbran clock got cracked in the fight, the entire last part of the fight plays exactly like the 1st chapter except it's with the Bayo we've been playing as, and it got worse when she finished off Singularity by summoning Gomorrah and that's pretty much what killed her. Everything else is right though, I honestly don't know why Viola's the new main and it feels weird.

          Judging by all the KHgays and Talesgays in action game threads and most people here being more concerned about who Bayo ended up with than the gameplay itself, it seems many do.

        I haven't played astral chain but you can customize Bayo's colors, however I haven't gotten far enough to unlock it.

              I dunno about a color edit, unless its unlockable, but so far I unlocked Japanese Bayo along with the main one, and they each have a set of colors you can change to.

                hows it running on ryujinx for you?

                Runs well when I'm playing, cutscenes have stutters and audio desyncs.
                I get the occassional crash, forcing me to restart some chapters a few times.

                Does Viola ever get longer hair? She would look better if she had longer hair. Her personality is cute from what I've seen.

                She looks sexy.

    I'm loving it. But I have 2 gripes. I'm unlocking the same moves across different weapons, and the same moves across punches and kicks. I haven't spent enough time with each weapon to see how much difference there is, but I see that while having universal combo structure across weapons makes it easier for new players, it takes away some uniqueness from the weapons. Love the gorilla hammer though.

        Is spamming umbran climax more complex?
        Is not being able to juggle big enemies except in witch time more complex?
        Is having enemies randomly counterattack you in the middle of a combo more complex?
        I don't get what you are arguing here.

      Definitely better than 2 due to better overall mechanical balance and more in-depth weapons on top of not locking the unique new character to a side mode. Compared to 1, that'll take time since the systems of 1 & 3 are much further apart than 1 & 2 were.

      No one knows homosexual the game has only been in most people's hands for a day or so. They probably haven't even beaten the game yet, much less played it on the hardest difficulty setting or bothered trying to find any tech.

      most likely answer. Just get rid of Bayo and go with a whole new character for the 4th game to avoid the VA situation (which would explain the cameo bit)

      I have two possible theories
      1) Taylor infiltrated the writer's room and ruined the game as revenge.
      2) Taylor rejected the role after reading that god-awfull script.

      They made it very clear that Bayonetta was a title, so yes as far as the game continuity is concerned Viola is Bayonetta now. Rodin even corrected himself at the end saying something like "Oh right you're not Viola anymore, I'll use the family name.. Bayonetta"
