Update part two
3 years ago
I wasn’t planning on writing anything today, but I had some time after work so I tried loading up Bayo 3 to play a bit, and I had to get the following out of my head or never get any sleep...
Pros
Hale’s performance as Bayonetta is great, lighter but still very much true to the character. (Please have her re-dub 1 & 2, please.)
The textures are nice.
Bayo in jeans.
Cons
Opening the game with Bayo getting crushed, cracked & exploding into crystal chunks while screaming, after forcing you to pointlessly move her limping self towards death made me more depressed than I already am. Even without all the soul-crushing IRL revelations tarnishing the series, that opening was horrible to experience.
The subsequent prologue wasn’t paced well & the brief moments of gameplay felt numb.
None of the character re-designs appeal to me.
Maybe it’s not the Bayo series I enjoy, maybe it’s just the old memories of the joyful experience I had playing Bayo 2 I’ve been clinging to for so many years. Either way, I can never recapture that experience, and I can’t trust this new 3rd game with how it opened, nor revisit 1 & 2 as long as they contain the original scummy VA that can go rot.
With how expensive food items are getting, I regret the purchase of the game. I’m just gonna have to cut the series from my life from this point forward, it’s exhausting to think about, and I get that feeling from real life enough, I don’t need more of it from a game.
On a lighter note, and different game, I played Teba enough to max him and his bow out in Age of Calamity, along with Zelda’s bow, they basically became unstoppable, ended up running out of new things to do in that game, but playing that on and off was helping for a while.
Anyway, I've gotta continue gradually riding out this depression, for however long it continues to plague me. I suppose the first hint anyone here will have of my being back is when I start reading my FA mail and favoriting pics again, the numbers in the menubar just keep growing. I'm sorry.
TIll then, it's time to sleep, drift into a dream of curvy anthros unloading; The only pleasant thing left to fall asleep to.
