It finally went too far. If you look hard enough--or not even if you simply know the other game--you can definitely tell that the director for Bayonetta is the same as Devil May Cry. The annoying little weasel of a fellow who is an informant is Enzo. The guy who writes the journals you pick is named Antonio Redgrave. Bayonetta just used the line "flock off feather-face."
Enzo? Dante's informant and gig-hunter in both the original novel and manga. Antonio Redgrave? Obviously a play of the name "Tony Redgrave" aka "Anthony Redgrave" which is Dante's alias in, only, like, everything. Flock off? Direct quote from the first game that Dante says to Griffon. (And if I'm wrong about that than it is DEFINITELY the name of the battle theme during Griffon's fights. It's one of my favorite songs on the OST.)
I am just so amused and yet... all it is doing is making me want to play DMC instead. Ffffft.
Tori. D is grinning mischievously. Watch out for all hell breaking loose, Tony. :|
I think I'm a third or almost half way finished with it. At this rate I highly doubt I will buy it--but I do recommend it to my friends who like games like DMC! (This means you Tori and Teagan.) It's pretty nice and I like the battle system. There is a button for shooting, a button for punch/arm attacks, and a button for kicks/leg/secondary attacks. Holding down either of the melee attack buttons will cause her to stop comboing and fire her guns to break the current combo. On top of that her Dodge Offset move allows you to dodge and then immediately return to the combo you were just in the middle of. Plus Witch-Time is pretty fun to initiate, as well as her Wicked Weave and Torture Attacks. They're fun to watch, haha.
As far as the story goes... it seems decent. There's more cutscenes than I was expecting--not a bad thing. I like Luka. He seems like your kind of character Tori. >X] He's like taking Ezio, making him a journalist, and then hilariously clumsy when it comes to wooing girls. Which was really funny because he was epic and then he suddenly stops when he spots this girl and starts flirting with her, and then is STILL epic when he's dodging while talking to her... but as soon as he goes to leave he runs into something behind him and trips and falls--but makes up for it in grabbing one of the flowers off the something and coming back up with it to throw to her! XDD ...yeah. so. yeah. He's totally worth it. XD
Okay. My only true spoiler for the game, seriously. I'm done.
