The parry in Bayonetta is tied to an accessory. After you equip it you just tap the stick in the direction of an attack that's heading toward you.

Heran Bago posted:In Bayonetta is the dodge/parry button different from the attack button? Of those it's closest to a mix between Wonderful 101 and Revengeance - much more emphasis on the dodge offset than either of those, though. Dodge is on shoulder, and is your primary method of avoiding damage as opposed to the parry, which is more specialized. For what it's worth, I think it's still their best game mechanics-wise.

There's actually a bunch of different accessories, many which change the game in pretty substantial ways. They're not easy to unlock, but it's a very deep system. It's a really deep game, overall. It looks like a button mash, but the systems are very, very complex.

Don't get me wrong, I ultimately prefer stylish action game, but I guess that sounds way too esoteric for most people (who are lame)

does anyone know if bayo pc has any extra costumes or if any of the extra costumes have the same effect as link's in bayo 2 where you get to parry for free so it frees up accessory slots

Nope, it's just an extremely good port of the 360 version. It does have stupidly fast load times (like so fast you can't even use the practice room anymore) and you can use the mouse for Angel Attack which makes it way easier.

The shotguns in Bayonetta are way better than I thought, especially coming from years ago in the PS3 version. Good choice for wrecking single big monsters since they attack just as fast as Scarborough Fair, just have to remember to hold the attack buttons down like with the lightning/fire claws for the real damage and stun.

You should be holding the button down at all times for almost every weapon imo. Charge modifiers deal way more damage than you would think, even with the default guns.

Yeah, it's why I stopped using Shuraba; as reliable and strong as it is (and TBH nothing still has the speed and utility of the sweeping Wicked Weave you get from the PKP combo and Tetsuzanko), its charge modifier can't be used mid-combo.

Platinum has a bunch of different teams. The team that makes fun games, and everyone else. TMNT was made by everyone else.

From what it sounds like, the only western licensed property Platinum handled that was worth a drat was Transformers.

TMNT is only passably fun when played with other people but you will never ever find three other people to play with so don't bother. Korra is completely forgettable, Transformers is a fun grab bag of mechanics from previous P* games with an awful loot system and next to no level/environmental design.

The name character action gets the point across and differentiates it from other games in the action genre. "Stylish" is subjective besides, so it's not a good descriptor.

It's a drat shame, "Platinum ninja turtles game" sounded like the best thing ever when it was announced. The TMNT keep having the worst luck when it comes to games in the past 20 years.toasterwarrior posted:From what it sounds like, the only western licensed property Platinum handled that was worth a drat was Transformers. ... Transformers isn't a western property. Josuke Higashikata posted:The name character action gets the point across and differentiates it from other games in the action genre. It doesn't, though. Every action game has characters. loving Mario is a "character action" game. And action games are a ridiculously broad umbrella on their own. If anything, they should be called "Combo Brawlers" or something, if we have to insist on acting like this one company's style of beat-em-up needs to be its own genre.

Lurdiak posted:
Depends on how you define things, I suppose. The original transformers toys were totally Japanese, but the plot? That came from Marvel comics. Although several later serieses were made in Japan, the basics for G1 stuff was made under contract with Hasbro, who chunked together a lot of toys they'd licensed from different lines to make a new brand, so they hired Marvel to set things up, like they had them do for GI Joe earlier. And the basics for the plot then (alien robots pretend to be cars on Earth, and half of them are evil) pretty much formed the basis for everything after. It's a decent game, anyway. Of the three Activision games, I'd definitely say it's the good one, with Korra being a passable enough time assuming you're jonesing and get it cheap, and Turtles being bad. But, really, they all existed to keep the lights on while Nier was under development, so their collective existence is justified.

Joe line on the Japanese market. Dubbed Combat Joe, the line would soon get a spin-off named Henshin Cyborg (henshin being the Japanese word for "transform"), which in turn would later lead to the original Microman toyline which started in 1974.

I was wrong: you totally can use Shuraba's charge modifier in combos, and it makes for decent AOE spam without insta-killing poo poo like maxed-out fire Durga skulls.

Sharing from the Steam thread, but apparently Bayonetta PC got a little patch with this guy's picture in its game folder: So Vanquish is a-comin'. Considering that a lot of character action fans also happen to like Vanquish a lot thanks to Platinum also making the thing an extremely stylish shooter, I suppose it's welcome news here as well! Though by that logic so would Bulletstorm and Doom 2016 Arcade Mode because of the combo systems...whatever, get on that poo poo if you're a big Platinum fan.

I'm surprised Vanquish ever got approved by the ESRB or PEGI considering all of the buttons are a "GIVE THE PLAYER A HUGE THROBBING ERECTION" button

Vanquish - Superb Yakuza - Superb Saboteur - Average in all ways. I think a 2/3 ratio of games having a smoke button being extremely good is worth cashing in on.
