Bayonetta is a drag performance. It's a mockery of the standards of sexuality through exaggeration, and it's no coincidence every opponent she has are strange sexless alien automatons, in order to enhance the contrast.

sexless alien automatons, that she rides like a symbian.

Its male gaze: the game. sorry brah.

bayonetta is an attempt at being a drag performance but it does not do enough to critique the male gaze it is attempting to ironically mock and winds up folding back in on itself. It never says anything about the tits and rear end it shoves in your face other than "wow this is a lot, right? also bayonetta is very strong."

Gameplay's really good though. worth it if you can get over the gaze.

Like Banner Saga but Bayonetta with a pre-VH Sammy Hagar soundtrack.

it's implicit in the reappropriation of gendered dress and behavior by individuals for whom such behavior and dress is viewed as taboo. bayonetta is, as far as i know, neither trans nor cross-dressing.

They used to call me tricky-kid, I lived the life they wish they did.


I never played Bayonetta until two months ago. I always though it was super creepy anime weirdo stuff.

I played it and it was super creepy anime weirdo stuff, but it is also loving hilarious. If you can't play those games without an ounce of awareness about how cringy it is then you are missing the point.


It's the Grindhouse of games.

Ah but here's where I got ya. Bayonetta is a computer program reappropriating gendered dress and behavior in a format where it is taboo. It's 21st century cyberpunk drag.

Considering Bayonetta gets lumped in (somewhat unfairly) with a deluge of anime titty games, I am gonna say that it is not particularly taboo

But the category it's getting lumped into is a taboo category, one of derision and offense.

If you’re talking about Doom then I think it’s worth a buy. It’s been running at a pretty smooth 30FPS for me with rare short dips. I’m having a lot of fun with it.

Of course it’s better on PC and other consoles but if you really want it on handheld then it’s not a bad choice.

Bayonetta is many things but she is certainly an adult, which is a distressingly welcome reprieve from most other tiddygames.
