Gaming / Re: Official Bayonetta Thread (Now with Copious Amounts of Action)
« on: January 10, 2014, 07:14:58 AM »Gonna necro this thread...That's how my experience was when I played Bayonetta for the first time years ago although I gotten the feel of DMC1,
So around the beginning of the year I picked up Bayonetta in anticipation of Bayo 2.
I've never played the DMC games, but I loves the [parasitic bomb] outta this. Playing more definitely makes your time easier after you've gotten some upgrades. I remember doing somewhat poorly in Normal mode, but actually doing a little better in hard mode, due to my expanded arsenal and [parasitic bomb].
That said, Hard mode kicks my ass. [tornado fang] Gracious and Glorious. [tornado fang] them so hard. grace and Glory were frustrating enough in Normal Mode, but their beefed up cousins in hard Mode are [tornado fang]ing ridiculous, especially since you cannot use witchtime against them. You fight Gracious and Glorious in normal too, but like, once or twice as special enemies. In hard mode they are everywhere, essentially replacing any instance of Grace and Glory save for The Vestibule.
If there's one gripe I have though, it's that the button presses don't seem very responsive when mashing them for Climaxes or Tortures. the analog sticks are fine and responsive enough, but the buttons I can't help but feel it isn't me being slow.
I completely agree with you on Gracious and Glorious, they're a royal pain to deal with because dodging their attacks does not trigger witchtime. However, there is an accessory called Moon of Mahaa-kalaa that you can wear that allows you to parry and counter attacks by hitting the left stick in the direction of the attacker, triggering witchtime to your enemies at the nick of time -- including Gracious and Glorious.

Out of curiousity, did you play the Xbox 360 version or the PS3 port? I never had any input lag on the 360 version.
