Despite disagreeing the "exclusivity" policy on principal level & the very fact that most of Japanese publishers denied Bayo 2 proposal for further funding & publishing, I applaud Nintendo for taking the right decision & saw a critical opportunity with Bayonetta franchise. Now, Bayonetta became an even bigger name & rising its popularity within Nintendo fandom especially with her inclusion as roster in SSB games. This is why I would predict Bayonetta 3 would get an even bigger sales numbers & popularity if the game turn out to be even just as good as previous titles.

I didn't get a Wii U to play Bayo 2, but I might get a Switch for it. I'm just really glad that Nintendo saved the franchise. I really loved Bayonetta as soon as I saw it first being announced. I thought she was a badass character with a lot of promise and the first game didn't disappoint. Hopefully, Bayonetta 3 will be just as awesome.

Exclusives are honestly, unfortunately, the last place where you're still going to get long single player games with no forced online or microtransactions. Sony and Nintendo basically view their exclusives as console sellers. They don't care if they never make their money back on them. So honestly, exclusives, despite people's good reasons to dislike them, may actually be the best thing for gamers who love single player.

Oh my GOD FOX N O

One of the good things about this series is how you can appreciate different things in both Bayo games; for example, I like the darker atmosphere and more gothic feel of the first game, while Bayo 2 is so inviting with its bright colors, almost like a playable birthday party! Anyway, thank you for your videos Foxcade. God bless you. :)

Yeah, I remember hearing that Nintendo were the ones asking for the alternate costumes to be made a bit more risque than they were originally designed. Pretty sure they wouldn't have approached Platinum in the first place if they had any intention of changing who Bayonetta's character is. She's toned down a bit in Smash, but that game they want to keep the T rating.

I think Jeanne's design in one was supposed to make her look austere and intimidating rather than fun and sexy. They did a good job at that and I think she also looked very fashionable. Meanwhile her attractive redesign in 2 makes sense now that she's a full on ally and counterpart to funtimes Bayonetta.

I love the Bayonetta series as much as I love the Devil May Cry series. Character Action is a thing. Happy New Year.

Honestly, I know many don't like it, but I love the clock-framing this game does. To me it fits the theme of time is running out, every second bayonetta is breathing, she is running out of time to save Jean. Not only for that reason, it sets up some really nice compositions and it doesn't make the viewer bored by staring at the same scene over and over. Having them shift their view to three points (most of the time) ends up being a very different style of story telling I love.

I like it too. Make everything straight to the point (even with those lengthy dialogues) along with different Perspectives from many involved characters make it for me, and I would less likely to skip cut scenes,too. Animated cut scenes are definitely superior, but with the way of talking in Bayonetta, the clock power point makes it less cringey for me, 😅and it's more interesting as well as satisfied aesthetic creative that actually trademarks the franchise.

Mr. Foxcade there are so many things you could cover, Dead Space, God of War (the old ones), and the modern Ninja Gaidens. Well at least those are my ideas. I would love to say that I have seen all your videos, however I haven't yet played every game that you've done a video on.

I feel like Bayonetta 1 handled witch time much better. In Bayonetta 1, witch time wasn’t essential, it was an option. Take a look at the NSIF in 1 compared to 2. Those who had the skill played that difficulty for the challenge of no witch time, but in 2, witch time became one of the only ways to pure platinum NSIF.

I never had a problem understanding the story of either games, granted I wasn't reading all the journals or anything, but I easily understood the story of the first one, and after recently getting a switch, I understood the second one as well

This is an excellent, highly-impressive retrospective. Thanks so much! *two thumbs up*

A fantastic video! Bayonetta and Bayonetta 2 are my favourite games of all time. And this video wonderfully covers everything there is to cover about Bayonetta 2.

I adore your content. very cool retrospective on what I consider a hallmark game of the genre

Can't wait for the video about Bayonetta 3.

I think overall, while I like the greater weapon variety (chainsaws and scythes were the only things I wanted as main weapons and I got both plus more), the better color palette, less cheap gameplay moments such as the QTE's and some genuinely amazing story beats...I still like bayo 1 more. Bayo 2 is good, but I feel like the gimping of some of the more nuanced mechanics like enemy step (got limited to only one instead of being able to do it as much as you want), the over reliance on witch time for enemies and is pretty much necessary just to hit bosses, and the overall easier difficulty bring the game down in my eyes. What you said at the end about bayo 2 not being as big of a shock as bayo 1 might actually be why bayo 3 is taking so long really. The devs probably want to make the next game stand out more considering how little of an impact the second game made. Hopefully, bayo 3 can manage to take the best from 1 and 2 along with some new mechanical tweaks and changes to the system to make it feel fresh again. Happy New Year to you by the way and thanks for all these years of great content you've provided us.

I think "over reliance on witch time" is an understatement, some enemies don't even have a wind-up animation (or a very short one) before they attack, forcing you to dodge randomly, a good example of this are the Balder bosses or that one enemy that has the insta-kill attack that makes you a child. What's really sad is that the gameplay is the only thing keeping this game from being as amazing as the first one, which is the most crucial part in an action game of this style, I just hope that we get to see the Bayo 1 combat polish in 3 :)

@@snmcfadden Enemies in the first game aren't cheap but the QTE's and instant kill sections can definitely feel that way since a lot of them just come out of the blue along with enemies even attacking out of cutscenes. That, however, stops mattering on repeat playthroughs since you know when those things are coming and despite those the enemies themselves are still hard on their own merits. What exactly did you find cheap about them by the way outside of the things I mentioned?

In the story one thing I would have liked to see more is Bayonetta being a little more maternal. To get to see that new side of her. I actually really enjoy the interactions in the beginning as she warms up to him and shares her experiences. I really want to see some more tender and caring of her. That she is not devoid of the normal female emotions. Of course I'm not asking for her to lose her sharp tongue, bold confidence or fun loving attitude. But just that she is more capable of other emotions as well.

Amazing video man. As a person who worships Bayo I love everything you included in this video!

So Bayonetta has brought back Cereza to the past and becuse of here influence Cereza does not get stapped in the heart and put to sleep fore 500 hundret years. She and Jeanne ateam up against the Angels. That makes me queston how the events of the first game could even took place.

9:30 I also think it's pretty much to demand Nintendo would help pay for games on other consoles. If Nintendo makes an investment, especially a big one like Bayonetta 2 then they want to see some reward for it.

great way to start the new year.

Dude I literally just picked up Bayonetta 1 and 2 last week And beat it today. What are the odds!

That good way to start new year, almost hour of sassy brithish fox person speaking about slasher. Stylish new year everbody!

It is always interesting watching long, detailed review like this, but you're knowledge of both games mechanics suffers greatly neglecting the maximum difficulty - Non Stop Climax. As with all action games simylar in that veine, maximum difficulty is the main source of challenge and replayability, and this is when shortcomings of the sequel keep popin out. I think my main gripe with the Bayo 2 is overall design phisosophy. Dev team was trying to balance Bayonetta arsenal and enemy for some reason, when Bayo 1 had already had perfect balance of risk and reward. My question is why? Enemies already can block, dodge, use variety of mellee or range weapon and very fast on NSC. You can kill them very fast, and so can enemies. Instead they went with the motto "where could we nerf bayo even more". For example in Bayo 1, enemies can block your attack, but no with 100% chance. They can't block it from the back, only if enemy has armour like Fairness (Which you can destroy). But in Bayo 2 they Block you in almost 9/10 ratio (even from the back) unless you punch them in the witch time.And Witch time duration is heavily shortened. Overall Bayo output power is hightly lowered, rendered many attacks like Stiletto and breakdance nearly useless, with exeption of Low-tier enemies.Wicked Weaves is now means nothing, they barely affect gameplay, when in Bayo 1 it was the main instrument to create space for you to combo and being defencivly-offensive (with using dodge offset). Witch time now is only your main tool, which forces you into narrow mindset of "dodge,attack,dodge, attack", limiting your gameplay freedom and creativity, when the first game its was the way to ease players not familiar with this type of fast-action games (like myself) into mechanics. Umban Climax have give you little to no tacital utiility unlike Devil Trigger, and works more like Free Hit Masing Marathon.There's so many more questionable design choices, like very strict timers on the versus ranks, and enemies without proper visual-cues and with the same audio-cues etc. It is not bad game by any means, even good i say, but miss Bayo 1 top-notch polish when comes to creating challenging and at the same time fair gameplay. For me its mostly not about difficulty, these changes heavily affect replayabillity and fun i got from the game. Which raises the question - do delevopers even realise what they create and what been so good about Bayo 1, carelessly throw all that things that works perferctly for sequel into the garbage can?I think that "Nerf everything" mindset is not good fit for theese type of games.

Subbed! Awesome look at an awesome game. I hadn't thought about Bayo 2's struggle to escape the shadow of its predecessor as its changes improve upon the formula as to polish it to a mirror sheen, but you're not wrong about it. Here's hoping Platinum can really pull out the stops in Bayo 3 and wow us; It's definitely on my list of Switch titles to be purchased on day one.

I really like Bayonetta 2 and all, but just can't agree that the combat was an improvement from the first game. In terms of how it feels and looks, absolutely. The first game feels almost clunky by comparison. But in terms of mechanics, Bayonetta 2 took a lot of really bizarre steps back that really hurt it in the long term. Explaining the issues with Umbran Climax alone would cascade into touching on nearly every other aspect of the combat. I really really hope Bayo 3 can get the feeling and aesthetic of 2 with the mechanic depth of 1. That would be legendary material there. It's scary though because going further into Bayo 2 territory would kinda make me lose hope that the series is ever gonna reach its potential.

Happy new year fox!

The problem with Bayonetta 1's set pieces is that they are actually all very integral to the story ... if you read the journals. Now I admit that having this information in-game through journals is certainly better than needing to look online (*cough* Destiny) but that lack of story cutscenes explaining these things can make it very confusing. The coliseum is still a bit iffy as you can really only infer Bayonetta put the pieces together that Fortitudo is wandering around and the journal she read said that is where Fortitudo was worshipped. The highway sequence however is much more clear ... if you read the journals again. I don't know why games will leave vital information like this out of the cutscenes and require you to read optional journals. Well basically the highway segment was Bayonetta heading toward the island called Isla Del Sol where the Lumen Sage Balder is said to be. Also yes we learn the Lumen Sage is named Balder in the journals before we learn it in game.

Yo what the fuck, i have not gotten any notification from you in 4 MONTHS and im subbed and i am subscribed and have post notifacations on

At last! Yeah, I never liked those almost-but-not-quite fully moving cutscenes, and 2 was noticeably easier (though the QTEs weren’t missed), but I did love the brighter colors and that cover of “Moon River”!

A Climax from beginning to end!

Bayonetta was so close on intergrating contextual cutscenes organically like Nero's buster arm. It just needed a few tweaks, like: 1) No button prompts (except at the start of the game for the tutorial only) 2) Don't force players to end boss fights with it 3) The megaton quicktime events. We don't have to mash a button or waggle the stick to be more immersed. We can just watch it, it would be less damaging to the controller. I would tweet this to Kamiya, but I know he will block me.

I finally got to play this game on switch and dmc5 I dont think will come close. I thought bayonetta 1 had better pacing and tutorials but damn the bosses were tough in 2.

I really like your videos, I just wish you would bring the nats up when you pause in your track

It's about time!

Happy new year Fox!

The red-and-black color theming of the inferno demons gives them a look and feel as though they were right from the first game, like a coating of ancient sauce that you would definitely expect from demons that have existed for centuries.
