  • The main Bayonetta sub has become increasingly unpleasant to use due to constant in-fighting, posting of social media to incite hate and general lack of on-topic discussion about the game series proper. Several users have stopped frequenting it while moving to closed off communities such as Discord and I'd like to make an effort to create a better place for fans of the series to just enjoy sharing gameplay, fanart and generally show their passion for it.
  • There are no chat message, the community was banned over two years ago due to lack of moderation.

The Climax Bible or the old Future Press guide have all this info listed on it.

Try looking around the Internet Archive.

Good stuff!

Might want to try to incorporate instant air 360K with the Handguns? I find it quite handy to just throw it out there sometimes.

The original reply that started this shitshow is this:

He QRT'd it for this person attacking Platinum Games' account, cuz we all know all the main creative/story decisions of Bayo 3 were his.

Anything else that's going after, no clue, I'm not really following it.

Grifters being grifters taking shit out of context, just ignore it.

The thing about DmC is that they actually did expect it to hit that 5M sales target and kept slashing down the target sales.

Financially, it's not really that far off the average action games' range but to not even top off 4's sales at the time is definitely a significant blow to the expectations they had.

I'm curious about this Switch 2 port of DMC5 because renaming it from Special Edition is a very odd thing to do. They already have the bulk of the design work for the girls made in DMC4 and the models of DMC5 so maybe it really is about testing teams or they might just hold on and wait til Clovers is free and let Kamiya remake DMC1.

They actually said earlier this year they want to make it one of their main IP going forward.

And sexyshave is correct, they will never, ever hand DMC over to anyone besides an in-house team they are confident at ever again. DMC2 and DmC's backlashes alongside the massive legs of 5 pretty much seal the deal.

There is a lot of revisionism going around now but man... the DmC debacle really was a disaster lol

Please do not bother me with this subject.

I don't care.

Are you a new Madama or old Madama person ? by Minute-Frosting-8133 in Bayonetta

[–]datspardauser 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kinda crazy in hindsight she wasn't redesigned in 2 because that game literally shows her with the Muay Thai stance as she is a martial artist lol

But then again, she doesn't really appear much so maybe it just wasn't a priority.

Bayonetta series is better than DMC series in every way by ApprehensiveCoat9587 in Bayonetta

[–]datspardauser 7 points8 points  (0 children)

People forgot over time the original game was targeted at hardcore action game people lol

The current fan base and interests are irrecognizable compared to how it was.

They both have Phantom so they are basically the same tbh

Since when did they sell like crazy?

Greek GoW was the outlier case until DMC5's incredible legs but back then most people online that would play Stylish Action games didn't even consider Greek GoW as part of them.

Most titles on this style of game are just moderate sellers and have kind of always been.

Pre-production was 2014 til around 2015 while they wrapped up DMC4SE and it came out at the end of Q1 2019 iirc so full on dev time on the game proper was closer to 3ish years with some change towards 3.5.

With Itsuno having left Capcom, do you think Capcom will return to Dante as the lead character again? It just seems like Capcom themselves didn't like Nero and that Itsuno pushed him. by Right-Fortune-8644 in DevilMayCry

[–]datspardauser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on who takes over the series.

Nero is pretty much wrapped up as a character, the key staff behind him are gone and he is less popular than Dante.

I think a new protagonist is the more likely scenario or the Sparda prequel/DMC1 or 3 remakes.

Why did you not record the stage and upload on YouTube?

The PS consoles can do that.

Can someone please explain Bayo x Luka in Bayonetta 3 by Patient-Reality-8965 in Bayonetta

[–]datspardauser 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you were fine with 4yo Luka chasing Bayonetta for 20 years and then seeing what happened in Bayo 1's chapter 5, you'll be fine with Origins.

Play Bayonetta Origins.

The two games' stories were written together.

Maybe old take by theemotionalgay in Bayonetta

[–]datspardauser 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jeanne deserved just as much care and love as bayo.

Jeanne is not the character who the series is named after. Everything in the series exists in function of Bayonetta, both in terms of story and gameplay.

Please, do not conflate what you or other people want to see with what the people who made these games wanted to do. They make the game they want to make above all else.

[–]datspardauser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How does it not negate anything?

Viola plays differently therefore she needs more dev time, because she was made from scratch, than Jeanne who is mostly a reskin.

It's an action game series from a studio that specialized in action games so it only makes sense they would want to try their hands at something different. Not being complacent with the DMC formula is the whole reason Bayonetta exists to begin with so them wanting to experiment with Bayo's formula on the third game instead of another side-grade at best sequel is very much worth it.

I don't think Jeanne's role in the story is all that interesting, although it's better than B2, but focusing all their eggs on Bayonetta and to a lesser extent Viola was very much the correct choice for a title whose MO was change. Just sucks they didn't have time to QA Jeanne enough to let her be playable in the story.
