Ian Hoddinott if you want know the reason why they don’t use the beta outfit,it’s because her hairs cover great part of her body, but you can see her hair free when she summon a Demon
I'm honestly impressed with the fact that the soundtrack was already completed by time the game had reached beta. Seems like they're part of the first few things that get done in game production.
A lot of the animations look exactly the same as the final game too. All the attacks and even the cut scene when meeting the allegiances is exactly the same as in the final game (besides the glasses). It's crazy how the areas (besides the grave yard) all looks the same except for her outside and some stuff we didn't get in the final game
13:13 That's one of her grab attacks from Anarchy Reigns! It's such an awesome punish attack animation and while im sad it didnt make it into the final game, it's really cool to find out they still managed to recycle it for her guest appearance in AR lmao
They added new voice captures which were not used in either Bayo 1 or 2 it’s exclusive to Anarchy Reigns. “Here’s THIS! Feel better now!?” very minuscule but cool imo.
duuuuuude, that hub for the beta, tho?? the japanese arcade aesthetic is absolute, it looks so good! incredible how a makeover in such a simple thing as the hub can change the entire feel of the game
Everything about this game deserves to be archived. At ten years old and it's still not old. The most recent re-release gave players a ton of new content. There are so many games that get re-master re-released, but you can bet when this one gets the treatment on PS5 or whatever it's going to have like a brand new level or something.
The prototype footage and its sound effects really gave me a gamergasm It looks, feels, and sounds so good! The animations were (not that finished) really punchy and had some impact
I am A huge fan of Bayonetta I have both her and Jeanne’s glasses and replaced the lens with mines.thank You for this I highly appreciate the hard work that goes into Your videos keep it up.
Some of this footage was already on youtube, I also find it weird that they allow Bayonetta 1 soundtrack on spotify but not Bayo 2 soundtrack, (because Nintendo . - .)
The animations of angels being dragged by hands to Inferno when dying a specific way look awesome !! Maybe they were cut because it didn't fit the humor used in Bayonetta enough
I saw this video in my "Game Design Fundamentals" class at UTD back in 2016, this goes to show that you don't need fancy graphics and flashy particle effects to drive home a great proof of concept.
just needs personality and Style, and it's gonna be a top seller (Persona, Shin megami tensei, Library of ruina, Bayonetta,God of war, Vampire survivor,Nier automata)
I'm pretty sure Mysterious Destiny wasn't even finished during this beta. It was probably just used as a placeholder for the footage because Platinum couldn't release the beta battle music due to its unfinished state at the time or because of a licensing issue.
I’m guessing they didn’t add in the wicked weaves mechanic at this point, I’m happy they did definitely makes bayonettas fighting style more cool and powerful
The fact the hands of inferno take the Affinitys and other like that when they are ready to dead make sense and is cool. I've never understand why just seven angels are taked to the inferno in the game if the protagonist is an "inferno warrior"
The changing music in Bayo 1 was sorely missed in Bayo 2 which chose to play Tomorrow is Mine for every battle and only play the sweet-ass Moon River Climax once at the beginning and once at the end. They could have had Moon River play during all the battles with Loki to play on the 'two drifters' reference a bit more.
This drew my attention after the latest Bayonetta 3 trailer. This multiverse they showcase, and a search for the "Alphaverse". I wonder if this alpha universe has a Bayonetta with a white shawl, or perhaps red hair?
The beta’s UI reminds me a lot of Viewtiful Joe’s UI, which isn’t a bad thing. I’m really looking forward to Bayonetta 3 and all the crazy shit that it has for us.
In retrospect, wish they continued this methodology for Bayo's development, or, at least, started reincorporating the ideas for future titles if that was possible now
Better one is how the VFX works in Viewtiful Joe. Same director so you can see why i picked Viewtiful Joe. This is far more like that game in a few small ways with how it works.
That was literally the first gameplay concept prototype. It looks like that cause it was made in like 1 afternoon, with the least possible effort just to have a feel on what direction the game would be going.
Honestly it would be pretty nice if they included the beta as a bonus game for the players to enjoy. I know Alice Madness Returns has the Alice Mcgee's game as a side bonus game.
Surprising that they didn't make her beta outfit unlockable in the final game
Ian Hoddinott
Fortunately we have mods for that!
The beta outfit looks like the D'arc outfit
Ian Hoddinott if you want know the reason why they don’t use the beta outfit,it’s because her hairs cover great part of her body, but you can see her hair free when she summon a Demon
Because it’s ugly
So Bayo started out life as a Ginger.
No they just needed a contrasting colour for that particular demo
@@silkworm2595 No, one of her concept art designs was ginger.
@@buffbeann that doesn't mean that's how she started. It's design iteration, not the designers changing their minds
there were so many different designs made for bayo, but in most of them she had black hair. bayo was also blonde at one point lol
Ginger Bayo looks a lot like Sailor Moon Kaolinite, so I'm kinda glad they dropped that XD
the first seconds of the vid::: this wouldve killed on ps 1....no joke
Facts in the old day alot of people would have loved this on the ps1
Yeah, but trying to run it would have also killed the PS1, so there's that.

Collin Mcmeeken Well, they probably had a really strong idea of how the chapters and cutscenes would look like, so that’s why it looks so similar.
Collin Mcmeeken What cutscene when meeting the Allegiance? When even is that?
Games are mostly complete by the time they reach beta. Beta is basically refining and bug testing... what we get now on day 1 release date xD.
yeah, the songs have meanings for the game so it’s important that they’d finish that first
Somehow, even on the pre-alpha the game LOOKS SO GOOOOD
And on the beta, the game would still be INCREDIBLE, like, you already had the Bracelet of Time by default, AMAZING
1:20 Jeanne was done before bayo im dying
her original outfit gives me a NiGHTS/ jester feeling
trizz wiz yessss
Maybe that’s like her 3rd game outfit OMG

it wont get rereleased or backwards compatible with the ps3 since nintendo has the rights to the whole series
Nintendo practically owns the series now and the games worst port was on the ps3 soo
Lol
as of 2012 Bayonetta became in Nintendo's hands! So, basically NO
Keep dreaming
@@ni8anttana’m pretty sure they were just talking about a PS5 remaster or remake of Bayonetta 1

@@Dayviono Bayo 1 ost is on spotify because Bayo 1 didn't have anything tk do with Nintendo , so it's like a "blessing and a curse" thing i guess lol
Johnny Namieweak yeah they said that lmao

I'm pretty sure it's actually used for one specific and difficult to perform torture attack

can’t wait for the sequel ❤️ Bayonetta 3
You mean prequel
@@noodle_poodlec7836 I hope the game takes place in the future and past
Well I hope it's not nintendo exclusive... and I also hope it comes with Bayonetta 2 remastered for PS, Xbox and PC.
@@Cipher_556 what's there to remaster?
@@Cipher_556 Sadly, it will be a Nintendo exclusive as they own the rights now. Sega should have never transferred the rights.

The first game looks genuinely fun to play
It is!
It is.
I like how at the beginning. The angels' halos were just solid golden rings. But now they are glowing halos if raw energy with intricate designs.
So at first, Enzo is not a fat italian man, instead a skinny one 😂😂😂 17:30 Jeanne looks so stunning in here😮
Makes me more appreciating how hard the game is to be made
Bro, this leaked footage of Bayo 3 looks sick!
Its the alpha and beta of Bayonetta 1 xD
@@jadebayoba7073 sweaty, it's a joke
But I'm okay with this costume, seems the leaked Bayo 3 costume has this in it.
2:02 yeees Jeanne, giving us nothing and everything with that walk ✨
The proto type looks really good and solid for a proto type
This game changed A LOT
They should've kept title screen somewhat similar to this. i love the design of it. it looks like a fashion magazine
Something tells me... some of this prototype is going to be on Bayonetta 3 with a little bit of white magic! >.> who knows? maybe not! >.>
Bayonetta 3 is probably gonna be a god inside a god inside a god inside a god inside a god 🤣
@@thegreatpapyrus5355
Yeah! Probably!
Goddess Bayonetta!🥴
All I can say is at least its there and boy it was wonderful
This is how good games are made. Focus on the primary gameplay loop. The story and look should serve that first and everything else second.
Sadly devs are not doing much effort these days.
Nier Automata:
"You sure about that, kid?"
Automata was way more successful.
@@scary5455both good
Bayonetta in the Beta footage (Not the prototype) for some reason reminds me of Lisa Lisa from Jojo's.
sonicsaiyan07 YES
I believe it since the time stopping/hair demons/her poses have strong jojo vibes.
Yes yes yes yes oh my god
Funny since they share the same JP voice actor.
Her bullets also resemble Sex Pistols by how they work and Sheer Heart Attack in its design
The fact the hands of inferno take the Affinitys and other like that when they are ready to dead make sense and is cool. I've never understand why just seven angels are taked to the inferno in the game if the protagonist is an "inferno warrior"
I can see why different angels have different music mysterious destiny gets annoying when its constantly repeated

@@AlienOvan TiM was only played for, like, a few times.
Wrong
Thank god they noticed
@@CDRW24 it's played in almost every fight and moon river barely plays 3 times, 2 if we exclude tag climax
0:19 Bayonetta is even stylish in the prototyte.
It’s interesting how Witch Time originally had its own gauge.
It was supposed to be able to use it at any time, which I appreciate since you can only activate it after dodging in time.
So I wonder when they decided to add wicked weaves/ Madame Butterfly
If the beginning was an actual Ps1 game, I would legit buy it.
The one of a kind demo soundtrack sound so good
1:05 I just wanna hear the original version of this track. It sounds beautiful at the beggining.
This drew my attention after the latest Bayonetta 3 trailer. This multiverse they showcase, and a search for the "Alphaverse". I wonder if this alpha universe has a Bayonetta with a white shawl, or perhaps red hair?
that slow movement gets me quite nervous!
That motorbike was pretty cool they should of keep it
Ok so the title screen tho it looks dope
The beta’s UI reminds me a lot of Viewtiful Joe’s UI, which isn’t a bad thing. I’m really looking forward to Bayonetta 3 and all the crazy shit that it has for us.
the only thing i wish they kept was the old health bar and magic meter. they look much more elegant.
Wow. This unfinished Bayonetta looks just like a finished Devil May Cry.
😂
Bayonetta had rush actions like Nero??? Why didn't they let her keep it?!?!!?
Grab attacks?
@@twilight_mourner1865 Close but she just did an automated once it's just way better than her torture attacks. Reminds me of Super Arts from 3rdStrike
She still has "automated" attacks, they have no indication until you're actually doing. They're called "Punish" attacks.
@@mann-nova9392 She has literally 2 and they aren't that impressive.
Damn, they should've made a ginger Bayo skin to the final game as a reference
Fr that would been nice
I really hope this beta gets leaked. It's so good.
Hmmm... seems like the original game was going to have Umbral Climax outside of boss fights.
I hope some of these things return for Bayonetta 4
I wish they kept the car and motorcycle attack it looked very fun
We can still do it in the full game, but it her hair/ demon that throws the cars.
In retrospect, wish they continued this methodology for Bayo's development, or, at least, started reincorporating the ideas for future titles if that was possible now
i love the fancy gold border around some of the ui, kinda wish they kept it
seeing this november 2024 after like 2 years of making bayonetta my whole personality, dang
Interesting to know How Witch Time Works in the beta It was more like Prince work his time Powers in PoP Warrior Whitin and The Two Thrones
Better one is how the VFX works in Viewtiful Joe. Same director so you can see why i picked Viewtiful Joe. This is far more like that game in a few small ways with how it works.

@@jickboi308 have you tried it??????
@@Miklio12 yes I have.
@@Miklio12you indeed can blow a kiss with the lock on button in the final game. In fact, the kiss even stuns some enemies for a second.

just like prince of persia
EVEN THE FUCKING PROTOTYPE AND BETA WERE AWESOME
12:01 Betayonetta: lets dance boys
I can't believe bayonetta 3 is going to be only on switch
Bayonetta 2 was only on wii u, why is it such a shock
Sega couldn’t even make Bayo 2 lmao. Be happy, without Nintendo the Bayonetta series would have finished at 1
so cool but i literally couldnt stand to watch most of it😂 that combat is like fighting in a pool of oil
I HAD to sped it up using YT’s playback speed, it was so unbearably slower from the final game lol
I Didn’t know you could play as Kim Possible in the Bayonetta Prototype
The bullet climax 😍
YES SOMEONE FINALLY NOTICES THESE!
0:01 Yoooooo Bayonetta 1 Mobile looks amazing 🔥🔥🔥
Wow, i think that haircut was better than the original one, actually.
Yeah, looks nice, but the long hair made it difficult to see her movement, so that was the reason of the hairstyle change
1:56 is anyone else singing the music that was on the game like they made the song????
I wonder who her voice actress is here? It doesn’t really sound like Helena Taylor
could just be stock grunts until they actually hired someone.
Wow that old school era bayo
This used to radiate magical girl energy
I like how her dodge, it's somehow how DMC5 dodge with v panther on it 😳
13:35 oh i see, is a icon indicating your ranking in the beta, S beta por Pure Platinum.
6:09 I think ive seen this bayonetta in bayo 3 singularity boss
A lot of the concept art Bayonettas were included in Bayo 3 as easter eggs
Crazy content! xD
Still waiting on ANY news of Bayonetta 3
Same, Bayo 3 and SMT V are basically my white whale at this point.
i think hideki kamiya posted sumn on twitter about it
It sucked big time.
ルナオパールなるものがあったのか…

13:09 what is this icon next to Betaoyetta health bar
....so... her throw moves in anarchy reign.. was originally from the beta. Oh my goodness
Now we need a new Anarchy Reigns game. It's been years now.
She was originally a red head? Neat.
10:20 oh in the beta, Platinum Games still has not implemented a raking system.
Would be great if Sega let Platinum do a Nightshade remake.
Why does the early footage in the beginning of the video look like something out of a 1990’s game?
maybe they spent years like 8 to 10 continue and discontinue(rest, to focus other games)
That was literally the first gameplay concept prototype. It looks like that cause it was made in like 1 afternoon, with the least possible effort just to have a feel on what direction the game would be going.
A lumen witch and an umbra sage is prolly gonna come up in Bayonetta 3
Ms. Game & Watch at the beginning... xD
