The game gets more enjoyable once you beat the story once and never have to play as her or do the cinematic sections again.
It's so fucking frustrating.
I just finished the egypt chapter (which was kino) and unlocked 2 new demons and 2 new weapons. I thought I would be able to use them but nope.
Instead I'm thrown into another one of those shit Jeanne chapters AND now into a shit Viola chapter.
I'm one of the few weirdos that actually liked Jeanne's sections but Viola's gameplay is the absolute lowest point for the entire series. Just wait until you fight Virga as Viola.
Also FUCK the morons. Absolute retardation with not a single cue as to when they're about to hit you. Actually pure retardness.
I thought it was the first time around but it quickly overstays it's welcome.
What did they change?
On release your had to literally, LITERALLY hit the frame 1 parry timing to activate her full witch time. Anything past that and you got .5 seconds of witch time and basically no damage in. She was so fucking unfun to play because consistently hitting the literal perfect parry was near impossible.
It was beyond unfun, unplayable is more like it. Even Jeanne in Bayo 1 was easier and she's a secret nightmare mode difficulty.
I would've been filtered for sure.
I fucking hate her so much. Only reason I haven't given up completely on her chapters is because of moon of mahaa-kalaa.
Stick with it to get access to the post game content and never touch her again. Witch Trials and the sub-chapters with the red icons are really fun.
How do devs just not realize that only a tiny fraction of players will even be able to get timing that tight? Decisions like that reek of some autist on the team demanding that it be unfun levels of difficulty.
The timing is fine. its the fact that the player has to rely on it to get anything done with her is the problem along with switch games inherently have garbage input delay. Makes me feel they just about got the game out in time with some blatant balance issues not getting dealt with.
>Now
ez shit
>Release Viola
Literally fucking impossible.
>character was so awful she had to be patched
There really is absolutely nothing redeeming about Viola. The future of this series is looking grim.
When you finish 3 go play the superior spinoff.
3 was fun the first time around, shit story aside. But after going back and getting good at Bayo 1 and 2, 3 just feels like such a clusterfuck.
1 and 2 are hard because of the enemies, 3 is hard because of the controls.
I enjoy the combat a lot so far and I think the weapons are very fun but I don't think I've gotten a handle on using summons effectively.
I mostly just use wink slave tbh. I haven't seen any downsides to it
Demon slave is too complicated for me. I have a hard enough time just dodging and doing combos so another layer on top of that is too much. Especially with all the choices you have and switching between different demons for combos. Madam and Gomorrah are my go to summons though, mostly so I can look at her legs. I love this series but the action is legitimately too fast for me to process a lot of the time, especially in 3 when you often can't even see Bayonetta.
Same. Honestly I suck real bad at the game. I thank God for DO otherwise I would never be able to get platinum medals at all. Combos are the only type of score I'm often consistent at.
I really hope Platinum is aware how much people hate Viola.
It's always fun watching a company be clueless about something an average player could tell them after 5 minutes of gameplay.
Its easier with viola.
what the fuck even is this picture, I hate it
what's the context, it's horrible
is this a reference, does she do this in the games?
She just really likes lollipops
I don't think sticking candy in your eyes is a fun thing to do.
One of my girlfriends licked my eye once. It was weird. Not that it caused any serious discomfort, it's not like trying to get an eyelash out of your eye with a cotton swab (q-tips for Americans) or maybe even your fingers, you know. The tongue is pretty soft and wet, so it's not really that bad. But still a pretty weird feeling. And she said the eye tastes salty.
I don't know why I just told you that.
>release viola against the post-credits boss
I don't know how much they improved her with patches, but holy fuck i wanted to pull my hair out for hours against that shit.
I didn't make it past her fight with Luka and stopped playing then did it the first attempt after hearing she was patched.
>PP’d all Alfheims on release
>Patch made them all significantly easier
>Even the ones that weren’t that hard
Awwww
Viola's swordplay is so bad compared to how fun Shurba is in the first game.
If the switch wasn't such a piece of shit, Viola would be playable.
