    Bayonetta was the reason I bought an xbox 360 after playing it round my best friend's house after school about 10 years ago. We both pre-ordered this one and I am as having as much fun as I did with the first entry back then.

    This review is exactly as I am experiencing the game. Since I’m not an action game player normally, I started at beginner difficulty and I do find it a bit too easy, since I can’t seem to do anything wrong against opponents, but only get myself killed from my horrible platforming skills. So as an rpg player who loves heavy cut scenes and voice acting, this might be a good game to get some more action elements in my gaming. Thanks for the review and the reduced price thanks to your e-shop cards!

    Another masterpiece. As I've found with every Bayonetta game, it takes a bit of a commitment for it to finally click, getting used to the combat intricacies, learning enemy patterns, and dicovering the fun of replaying levels and shaving of better scores and trying out new weapons and here, also demon slaves. The game has the best replay mechanics of the series by the way, where only the verses which you improved on will be updated on your overall score. Less punishing, more addictive.
    Camera has been patched since launch.

    I was fortunate enough to pick up the amazing Collector's edition of this game. I LOVE it, but I still think Bayonetta 2 is ultimately my favorite. The combat in this game, though? *Chef's kiss*. My only gripe is that sometimes I feel like the levels are a little too big with nothing much going on in them. I would have preferred the more linear sections from the previous entries. Still a great game, and Jennifer Hale is queen.

    • @SyedTauhidul
      @SyedTauhidul Год назад

      About the level, it's said that Bayo 3 was supposed to be semi open world (like astral chain) but development was slowed down due to it and Nintendo asked plat to make it linear. The open empty maps are leftovers from that vision.

    I love this channel, it's my go to review channel because unlike Bayonetta, the humour is actually good.
    This game is just outright bad.
    Tons of cut scenes with humour I would have found funny if I was 10 years old.
    The camera is shockingly bad.
    The action is few and far between and even then, every time there are a few pointless bits of dialogue Bayonetta slows to snails pace whilst they're said.
    The combat isn't much fun either. You have these huge enemies with no sense of power to them. Fighting them is really a bit of a drag at times with the camera and graphics just not making things on screen very clear.
    Glad I got physical copy 'cos I can trade it in and probably get £13 of my £20 back but still gonna have to drive to the shop to trade this heap of shit in.
    It's just like watching a bad film with some very medi action in-between.
    There was potential for the huge city scaling on the back of creatures to be really good but it just felt a bit clunky and held back by the camera again.
    If you want an action game with not a lot of action and a lot of boring cut scenes, then fire away.

    Not a fan of having 3 different currencies. Dmc4 showed that having more than one just makes it so that you have a large amount of both cause you're aren't spending enough of either. Especially with one currency being tied to unlocking attacks only.
    This game is no exception and is actually worse with it. But I guess having halos tied to extras only is fine. But the other two are a bit too much

    Bayonetta 3 was superb and the absolute best of the series imo. It was a Day 1 buy for me and it was everything I wanted from this series, but it went further and it didn't disappoint! I beat it 3 times now and got everything in the game except Rodin's weapon because well..........I've given up on trying to beat him!
    I'm happy that 3 fixed alot of the issues I had with 2, the most important in that all of the cutscenes in 3 being actual scenes, not just still-scenes/pictures with them talking in the background, which 2 had way too much of and it made me think that 2 didn't have a good budget or something. The only time 3 used the still-scenes/pictures was when Bayonetta views flashbacks of her other selves, which was good. Not to mention the level of style, excitement, design, and action choreography of the cutscenes was a much higher degree of quality than almost all of 2.
    I loved the Multiverse and it was a good move introducing this as it opens many doors for the series now and it perfectly fits in with the World of Chaos being well.....chaotic, which perfectly symbolizes the Multiverse. I loved the different locations this game had from Japan, to China, to Egypt, and then Paris. Seeing alternate Bayonettas was simply fantastic. Even the island of Thule was cool and I wish we had gotten to explore a little of the Altar of the Sky because it had a very majestic design and I liked how it had the Lumen Sage and the Umbra Witch statues and then across is the statue of Aesir within the Altar's core. All 3 Gods of the Trinity of Realities knew of the Multiverse it seems and studied it on Thule.
    The story could've been a little more explored because it did feel like alot of important story elements were left out and not properly explained. I don't know if this was done on purpose or if it was convoluted to the point where they missed things. Maybe both??? Either way, Bayonetta's story was always a bit all over the place, but it was easier to understand 1 and 2's as opposed to 3 I'll admit. None the less, the story was engrossing imo and with the help of videos explaining things and having played through it 3 times, I understand it a lot better now!
    I don't know if this is just me, but I thoroughly enjoyed that the chapters felt longer in 3 than it did in 2. Each chapter in 3 , to me, had more content and exploration then most of the chapters in 2 and I really enjoyed exploring all the different environments. I hated how 2 had chapters where it was just literally 1 boss battle and then it's over. It made 2 feel so incredibly short and cheap. I'm glad they decided not to do this again in 3 and almost every boss battle in 3 was epic, exciting, and kept you on your toes. The only boss I felt that way about in 2 was the final Balder fight in Inferno. I also enjoyed that 3 had much more bosses.This game's Final Boss was incredibly epic and severely made up for the lackluster anti-climatic final boss in 2. And this game's soundtrack was the best in the series, with the Singularity Definition OST being the best final boss track in the series.
    Viola was a nice addition to the series, I have no issues with her and her Fairy Masquerade Rage was cool, but I still abhor her infuriating Witch Time activation! That's the only thing I don't like about her.
    The frame rate issues didn't bother me because this is the Switch and we all know it's not gonna give out the same stable quality as the PS4 or PS5 so, graphics and frame rate wise, this was never a problem for me. I'm just grateful for Nintendo saving this franchise and allowing it to get to this awesome game being made. But if they ever released this on PS4 or PS5, I wouldn't say no to it.
    As for the ending, I personally loved it. The very beginning of the game showed the stakes being the highest it's ever been with Bayonetta from Viola's world getting killed by Singularity. This game wasn't going to end on a happy note with the extinction of alternate universes and Bayonettas/Arch-Eves dying all across the Multiverse being the backbone of it. What "Our Cereza" does in this final battle is grand and the ending was much more impactful because of it. As for Luka and her together, I have no issue with it because I never saw Jeanne as her lover, she was her sister/best friend. People saw there sexiness, innuendo, and lustful behavior as them hinting that they were in love with each other or maybe that Bayonetta was bisexual, I don't know and I don't care really. Imo, the sexiness, innuendo, and lustful behavior they express with each other is how they've always been, teasing and being proud of being sexy powerful women. You could interpret this either way you want, but whether she ended up with Jeanne or Luka, the other side would've raged and been angry so it's a lose-lose story element imo. Platinum just decided to go for Luka and that's fine with me. I also believe this gives Luka more importance in the grand scheme of things otherwise there would be no point in him being in the series after the first game as then he would just be the comic relief character which is already Enzo imo so we don't really need another one.
    All in all, I can't wait to see Bayonetta 4 in the future and I'm eager to see where and how they're gonna bring Bayonetta back. Viola saves her and Luka from Inferno or the Bayonetta from the first game's universe comes back into the mix. Who knows, but theres alot of possibilities and with the introduction to the Multiverse and Fairies, the future of the series is gonna be great!!!

    I played the game, I miss the gory that bayonetta 1 had, 3 didn’t have that. Playing as different versions of bayonetta was nice, but viola is just so bad to use. Jean stages are an addition, but just a 2D platform that’s boring and uncreative. They wanted to just put something new there that doesn’t work. Playing Jean stages were such a drag, even if they take just 10 minutes to complete, it felt like a total waste of a lifetime.
    Also Bayonetta is constant ripping her heart out to make even bigger summons, those boss fights, well they feel lackluster and a total downgrade from the usual gameplay. They weren’t fun/enjoyable at all.
    But overall, it’s fun to see bayonetta again

    MINOR SPOILERS
    I loved the Bayo sections, but absolutely hated the Viola and Jeanne levels, they felt clunky and just not that fun.
    The story was a disappointing and convoluted mess (specially that ending) and I found the enemy design quite boring and unappealing (with some exceptions, of course) something that never happened in the first two games.
    Overall, a good game, but not the proper send-off for such a beloved character, if Viola is indeed replacing Bayonetta, then I'm done with the franchise.

    The controls are not as precise in exploration as I’d like (spider climbing mechanic is a joke), the environments can range from very nice to disgusting .png’s, the camera is ok when not covered by enemies which happens a lot, the voice lines are absurdly repetitive in some cases like all of Violas or Bayonetta having literally one line for idol animations that sometimes appears in loading screens or at the start of chapters “If I’m going to waste time I’d rather do it in a nice hot bath” 🙄 and…
    I highly enjoy this game. It’s a very well done game just not as polished as DMC5 was. Easily the second best out there in the Spectacle Fighter genre. Devil May Cry 5 however is just a bit better from a finely polished at release standpoint.
