People are talking about the Kaiju battles but to me this:
Is a bigger red flag. It feels way too stiff and restrictive for Bayonetta.
a A.AB combo (or something similar)? Let's wait a bit before making big assumption.

I think it looks great - the fake out was weird and it's a bit of a tease - but we haven't seen anything yet.. To each their own but I'm baffled by some of these reactions tbh.
I knew she doesn't look like Bayonetta at all, my partner called me crazy but it seems like I'm technically right, lol.
I'm not a big Bayonetta fan to begin with, so what do I know, but this looked... rough? Extremely tame for Bayonetta? I feel like her personality is usually front and center in these trailers, but this seemed like it only cared about showing off the kaiju battles - which were a little ugly and hard to follow themselves.
I'm curious what the response from long-time fans will be when this releases.

one of the realities of environment design is that everything is larger than real life. otherwise the games won't control well. pick any game and look at the doorway. shit's like 9 feet tall
Really hope this game doesn't come out until the end of next year. Still needs some work. And no blood or dismembering?
I'm just happy this is still a thing and it seems like it's still a Bayonetta. No expectations because Platinum gives a masterpiece or a really boring game, wether it's called Bayonetta or not.
Bayonetta: Lady of Shadows
Bayonetta: Lady of Shadows
EXACLY what I'm feeling right now
This game feels so... tamed?
Upon couple of more rewatches, gameplay still looks tight and interesting!
Lmao! I didn't even know about this. That's hilarious.
I knowwwww. Wrong answers only. My headcannon is Bayonetta is about to step off at Shinagawa since she's on her way to the immigration office.
Seems Metroid isn't the only Nintendo game MercurySteam is working on
edit: lol beaten
This trailer didnt pass the vibe check from a bayo1 superfan. It seems they are continuing to build from 2 instead of going back to why bayonetta is good. and teh enemy design is a big yikes. disappointing.
Ok so I've watched the trailer several times and gone through a whole range of feelings. I was so, so disappointed after my first watch. Everything about her character feels off. That is not how Bayonetta dances. She's dancing like a Japanese teenager, which is not how she has ever danced before. Her model...yikes. It has grown in me after a few watches, but yikes was definitely the original reaction. However, like some others, I am firmly on the "alternate timeline Cereza" train.
This character model looks more youthful than the Bayonetta we know. This could be used as an excuse as to why her voice is different. Whoever is voicing her is close to Hellena, but not quite Hellena. She's in Shibuya, which could explain why she's gone for a more "kawaii" aesthetic and possibly why, as I mentioned earlier, she's dancing like a Japanese teenager (or at least that's how they're portrayed in games and anime and whatnot). When the logo shows up near the end it splits into multiple logos before reverting back to one logo, with a half moon either side. This suggests some sort of multiverse to me. My money is currently on the person at the end being some alternate version of Jeanne.
Overall I am of the opinion that this is not the Bayonetta we know. It's a young adult Cereza from the first game. I think our Bayknetta will show up in some capacity, voiced by Hellena, but that she won't be the "main" Bayonetta we play as.

so is the final game in the series.
they gonna bring it home im sure
Big Bayo fan, but will echo the feeling that something feels off.
I think they focused more on the new mechanic than just bringing folks back into the general world of Bayonetta.
That said, love me some Phantom, so that's worth the new mechanic alone.

I thought it was great, though with what they showed I can see why some are still disappointed. Still getting it day one.
Yeah, now that ypu mentioned it, she looks way shorter than Bayo. I legitmately think that is Cereza/Alt. universe Bayo.

Yeah, it happened to me as well... lol even if I read "Platinum" in the first few seconds...
I've been trying to do more to avoid gaming side as opposed to hangouts, because yes, it's pretty much endless negativity and nitpicking.
Yes.
It felt like they didn't want to make Bayo 3, but had to, so they just took a game they were making and slapped a Bayo coat of paint on it
count me in the group that thinks it looks great, riding a dragon demon through warping buildings looked hype
I can't believe how unpolished, clunky, and tonally off this trailer was. I really, really hope they're able to shape it up nicely before release.
Maybe Im easy to please because that looked fuckin' awesome. Also some of you are dramatic as fuck. Tone it down my word the hyperbole.
