A mess, but in charming ways at times.

Enjoyable game for the most part but flawed at times, gameplay stays more or less the same throughout the entire game with some new mechanics thrown at you from time to time. World building and Boss fights felt very refreshing and nice to explore. Music was outstanding the entire time, blessing to my ears everytime i booted up the game. Bayonetta herself 😻.

One glaring flaw I had with the game is I wish instead of having those slideshow-esque reel cutscenes they would just substitude them for the regular animated cutscenes the game is already filled to the brim with. I didn't have a problem with the animated cutscenes in and between chapters, in fact I quite enjoyed them, it made the game feel more like a movie with interactive elements to it at times, which is a nice change of pace, but to have those very lifeless slideshow cutscenes just made the pace of the game feel a bit of a mess.

But overall I had a good time with the game, sure its flawed and im sure the sequel fixes up on those flaws, especially graphically since it'll have been a newer game, but all around it was a decent playthrough.
