You’d think that with time and experience and the accumulation of knowledge, a man would move past certain things. He’d start to develop more refined tastes that reflect a growing passion for life’s finer stuff. You’d think he’d exhibit a predilection for more metered explorations of the human experience, subtle meditations on adult relationships and history. You’d think that witches who have guns built into their shoes, who get naked while attacking monsters with their hair wouldn’t be the sort of thing that would interest him.
Nope. Bayonetta is about as cultured as I’m likely to get.
There’s a lot more of the game to chew on in this latest trailer. It’s the first decent look at the sort of play I got to see demoed back in January. I’ll say, though, it still doesn’t give a full impression of just how varied and fast combat in Bayonetta really is. There’s also a heaping spoonful of story, with two new characters spouting dialog that strongly recalls director Hideki Kamiya’s old cheese from Devil May Cry and Resident Evil 2. Also, Bayonetta can turn into a cougar. I guess that explains why she’s chasing after that young, good looking fella driving the car in front of her! You know. Because… she’s a cougar… um…
That is the worst joke I have ever made.
