I'm sorry did you compare action game God of War to CHARACTER ACTION game Bayonetta?

How dare you, you casul

Let me tell you about the kind of fighting game I like: Imagine having your controller on your knee and using the left hand to move the character around. Then imagine taking a flipflop and mashing that on the face buttons. If you can still win, then that is My Kind of Fighting Game.

OH NO!
Bayonetta 2 singlehandedly justifies the purchase of a (used) Wii U and Pro Controller. It's the greatest 3rd person brawler action game ever made and should absolutely be on the switch so people can see what's up.

Even better we should just port N64 The New Tetris to Switch Virtual Console.

Because that's the best loving Tetris there ever was and for some stupid reason they won't implement Square Tetris rules in modern Tetris games. gently caress, Square Tetris is easily 10x more fun than standard Tetris.

I still habitually make squares when I'm playing Puyo Puyo Tetris. It even makes the sound in my head :negative:

KingEup posted:

Agreed square mode is best and The New Tetris had the best music of any video game ever.

I love the swtich pro controller but the dpad is super poo poo for puyo tetris for some reason. Maybe my two pros are just borked though. Pls recommend me a good dpad for puyo tetris goons.

This man is a Smart Man. He should try using split joycons -- the buttons-as-dpad are extremely appropriate and satisfying for Puyo Puyo Tetris.

Have you played and enjoyed other Clover/Platinum character action games titles such as Metal Gear Rising, God Hand, or Wonderful 101? Bayonetta 2 is the best game they've ever made and it also has competitive co-op online multiplayer.

I played a bit of God Hand at a friend's long ago and it was delightful, primarily for the theme / exuberance / music. How does Bayonetta (/2) compare to God Hand stylistically?

I dug the game quite thoroughly and got a good 30-something hours out of it. Once you get into the zone it's fairly meditative in the same way that Sudoku or Brain Age were.

It's got oodles of style even if the gameplay is much different (and better) then Godhand. Also gunheels

Not only is Bayonetta's combat more in depth and fun the protagonist isn't a massive boring pile of poo poo like Kratos is. I still don't know how you can take the insanity of Ancient Greek god myths and crank out a story as utterly boring and angst filled as God of War got

Yeah, stylistically on every level God of War has been one of the most grotesque and dispiriting series for more than a decade, and I shudder to think of the people who find its storytelling appealing. Bayonetta, on the other hand, is rad

They begin again

I like God of War a lot more than Bayonetta but there's room for both excellent franchises. I also like the God of War characters, world, and themes but I'm real glad they're taking Kratos in a more grounded direction for the next one. Being an rear end in a top hat isn't fun if it's a 100% of the time thing. You have to have a balance. Cool dadding in Norse mythology sounds like the absolutely raddest time.

Why are we talking about PS4 games tho

It's very different in regards to theming and music, but the exuberance is on par/greater in all regards. So while you don't have the same guitar work as God Hand, you'll be flying to the moon or crossing moon river with the same kind of gusto. I guess what I'm saying is that while they have completely different settings and themes, they give you the same kind of feeling where, if you're doing well, you feel amazing and like you're actually performing all the moves yourself instead of just mashing buttons and watching wrote combos perform themselves.

I'd like to see Platinum put their trademark character action style into a more open-world setting like Dark Souls or Breath of the Wild.

There's a lot of ways to quantify how bad the Wii U performed but "a wildly popular and critically acclaimed game from a beloved series made it onto the top ten list within the first month of sale" isn't a great one imo.

Yea, it's not a bad little strategy game. I got like 30 hours out of it before it started wearing thin, and I could see myself going back to it. It only got poo poo on at release because it had severe balancing issues and like 95% of the enemies are variants of a skeleton.
