Well, that's what I get for copy/pasting.
Bayonetta's coming to PC though, so that's nice.
Rumours are that Vanquisher is following suit.

Don't get my hopes up like this user

Cool. Now we just wait for CEMU to continue progress. End of the year, Bayo 1 and 2 will both be playable on PC at 60FPS.

Vanquish is a day 1 buy. Whichever comes first, Xbox One BC for it or a PC port is when I drop everything to play through that shit.

Hopefully it's not got half-assed "HD Textures" like some ports; I want the original textures so it has a chance to run on my potato.

So no, it's not confirmed.

Someone will port them over if that's the case. Also, nude mods.

Also, this is the background image of the countdown website.

No, but very likely.

What's very likely is that they wanna undercut CEMU while they can.

I understand what you mean but I don't think undercut is the term, you can't really undercut free.

If they release Bayo 1/2 for PC people won't wait for CEMU to run Bayo 2 at full framerate.

They're not releasing 2.

But you can half-broken undercut free with working paid, kinda


Unless you have a copy of the agreement between SEGA and Nintendo regarding rights to 2 you're just saying things.

Nintendo published 2, that's why it isn't coming to pc.

Nintendo still produces Bayonetta 2 merchandise, I've seen no reason to believe that B2's publishing agreement has expired; the bookies don't take bets on such things but if they did I'd put a grand sterling on 2 not getting a PC release.

Nintendo, as the game's publisher, is the one that decides on which platform to publish the game. Can you tell me what was the last game Nintendo published on PC?

Addendum:
twitter.com/SEGA/status/246266152442015744

That's not so much an undercut as an attempt at providing a better deal.
With Nintendo in charge of its publishing, though, I doubt we'll be seeing a pc release of bayo 2.

And like I said you do not know the detail of that agreement, can you say for certain it covers absolutely every way SEGA could bullshit their way into putting a version of B2 on PC?
Not that it really matters in the end since it's just gonna be emulatable anyways.

Why, though? The WiiU bombed and Nintendo knows it - they are the ones who killed it. Unless they plan to port Bayonetta 2 to the Switch, then releasing it on Steam seems like it would make them quite a bit of money without muddying their brand since Bayo is still very much Platinum's IP. And it's not like they aren't already about whoring out their properties on mobile for a few side-shekels. It's not even like the PC is a strong direct competitor with the Switch since Nintendo's hardware always does it's own unique thing and due to their lack of 3rd party support - they've long billed their hardware as a "sidecart" platform.

They're nintendo, they never release shit on pc.
I'd like Bayo 2 to be the exception, but I'm not going to get my hopes up for whoever's in charge to have an epiphany regarding pc and Bayo 2.

So, no. It's not confirmed.

Sage.

Stop bringing up SEGA when talking about Bayonetta 2. The IP is owned by Platinum Games. SEGA only ever had publishing rights for the first game, they have nothing to do with the second game beyond some consulting. We know that Nintendo is the game's publisher so they are that choose where to publish the game (which won't include PC given their track record). We don't need to know the "details of the agreement" because there was no agreement between SEGA and Nintendo regarding Bayo 2 - Nintendo just pitched in to publish a game that SEGA chose not to.

The only "agreement" there could have been was for the publishing of Bayonetta 1 on Wii U.

Bump

...

Because it's totally not possible to bullshit your way past that, they would need to own the rights to everything that is specific to B2 to completely stop the possibility of a release happening elsewhere and like you said yourself they don't.

Neat. I find the first game borderline unplayable at times after playing the second so much and it's almost entirely because of the more stabilised framerate.

the latter's more stabilised framerate*

will they port 2?
i brought a wii u for no reason then

it could just be bayonetta 3, which could have a multi-platform release if the sidescroller thing was meant to be a hint.

would be dope if it was a remaster and port though.

They don't need to you'll be able to play it fine on PC soon enough regardless.


I've just had an horrible thought what if It's just the anime being released on steam

that would be funny, but i would think they would've done that during the Anime themed sale to get more of them shekels if that was the case. not that i know anyone to have bought any anime during that sale, i just got a couple of the tales of games and other stuff during it personally.

I made the same mistake but I also don't really care about 2. If someone can figure out how to bypass QTEs with the cheat engine, modelswap bayo 1 with bayo 2, and a sweetfx/ENB/reshade preset that makes the game less brown then it'll be universally better than Bayo 2 as far as I'm concerned. 1 had better gameplay and music while 2 had colors that weren't brown and I liked Bayonetta's redesign in 2


That would be cruel and unusual and that kind of punishment is illegal in the US so I doubt it.

You might be on to something here.

I guess this is good news if used goods are your thing.

You forgot your goldface.jpg bro.

SEVEN YEARS LATER
:^)

7 years is what consolefags call never, I guess a short attention span comes with the territory.

you know, the only thing i'm actually jelly about consoles is for some of the atlus games like Persona 5. but it's not that big of a deal since you can just wait till the end of the console cycle and get stuff for dirt cheap.

i would be pretty happy if atlus released their stuff on pc though.

What are you nerds talking about? Crotchwitch Giraffelegs only ran like fecal droppings on the PS3, but the 360 version worked well.

Bayo2 was shit anyway compared to the first.

but why?

Nice trips but that would require owning a 360 which otherwise had nogames.

Chad quit shitposting and go take care of your child.

Maybe Chad is teaching him to shitpost RIGHT NOW

I'm not praising the P$3 here, it had a couple games but couldn't run them. I've never actually owned one.

360 had tearing out the ass and dropped to 45 frequently, Xbone backcompat make it run slightly worse but has no tearing apparently, mulated is 5fps and broken to shit.
PS3 dropped to sub 20 regularly and even had a whole chapter run sub 15 at half speed, emulated is 10fps and not actually broken to shit,the blackface bug was pretty hilarious.
WiiU has framerate inbetween the other two but gameplay speed is tied to framerate, also kinship rape the framerate worse than any other versions emulated runs 60fps most of the time outside of cutscenes but breaks a few thing because speed is tied to framerate in a few places and the original only ran at 30fps in those places

Maybe if consoles weren't so shit nowadays it might make sense, but not the case anymore.
Fucking things are nothing but locked down PCs for normalfags to own and brag about much like a TV

I bring good news, friend

Will probably be fully playable within the year

If they were involved in any publishing capacity they could, otherwise they can't. What part of exclusive publishing rights don't you get?
Not everything, just publishing rights. Unless you're suggesting Platinum somehow sold publishing rights to their game in parts or on a timed basis. In which, case why did they not hit up another publisher after the success of Bayo 2 to publish it on the Xbone or PS4?
Nintendo doesn't own the IP, so Platinum can make another Bayonetta game and not publish it through Nintendo (same as they did with Bayonetta 1 and SEGA). For everything regarding Bayonetta 2's publishing however, Nintendo is in control.

You need to stop reaching and accept that the game is tied to Nintendo. No amount of wishful thinking and nothing short of Platinum buying back the rights is going to change that. Just wait for emulation.

You're a riot.

Okay user

I'll probably buy it for PC regardless just for the stable framerate.

Well, finally. Hopefully Ports are being handled by Platinum themselves and they will be as as good as MGR:R

ABAP

...

Bayo 3 has been cancelled by Microsoft

There are things in Bayonetta 2 that I can understand people being upset about like the whole combo-breaking mechanic that enemies have and not being able to maintain air combos as well or the overreliance on witch time

I already own Bayo on 2 other consoles but it's nice to have it on the PC. I wont buy it but the game deserves as many sells it can get. It was the best game of last gen.

What a shitty gen

This gen is even worse.

only if you're a goon

This gen is worse

...

It's worse for goons to. Now they need to pay extra money for online play and overpriced DLC on TOP of their $20 admission to a shitty community.

Yeah, but that doesn't stop making the last one prettu shit as well.


>Only goons
Are you fucking retarded?

please just end your life if you're so miserable all the time, goon.


no one cares


tbh goons are probably happier since they're getting all their favorite wrpg shit remade

What kind of mods would you want to see for Bayonetta on PC, besides the obvious nudie ones?

Auto QTE
FoV
Some kind of better balanced higher difficulty mode.

Maybe if you are a drone. Anyone with a brain shouldn't stand for having to pay 8$ a month to play a game I bought.

VANQUISH WHEN?
REEEEEEEEEEEEE

Thanks to the success of Nier that is. I'm buying 2 copies, but I hope they release physical copies, I don't want to give steam my money.

Absolutely kill yourself


Not happening, not only do they save in production and shipping costs in the mostly dead physical PC market but they also get a placebo DRM.

one can only hope so then I can show my friends what a good third person shooter looks like

...

Can't wait.

if everyone that bought Bayo 1 bought 9 more copies as well then they would be seeing bayo 2 on everything but the WiiU. You guys have only yourselves to blame for not buying 10 copies of bayo each

That looks like the Bayo 2 colors and font.

holy shit
yet another NEVER EVER that turns into a SOON

Remind me again why Sega didn't fund Bayo 2?

I can't wait for the PC port and a potential Bayo 3 if it happens. Platinum hasn't been at the top of their game recently but Nier Automata proved to me they aren't complete trash yet.

To punish people for the Saturn and Dreamcast's failure.

When will people learn?

As a faggot who already had bayonetta on his 360 im only interested in 2 and just like demons souls and bloodborne it will never see a pc port

Their own fucking fault

Isn't Bayonetta 2 funded by Nintendo? And exclusive?

So I can't see Bayonetta 2 to show up on Steam soon.

Because Bayonetta sold bad and nobody else but Nintendo wanted to fund a sequel?

Just a guess.

Didn't the first Bayonetta sold like a million units or something?

Sold over 2mil combined iirc.

If I'm not mistaken, Bayonetta was/is Platinum's best selling game ever (at least, until Nier Automata surpasses it with the way it's been going), with all their other games being under a million at best.

I know better they won't but would be neat. Rather buy from anywhere else but steam. IP changed.

MGR sold over 2 millions too.

I don't care.

I'd rather cancer.

Well fuck, forgot about that game for a moment.

Nice dude, thanks for letting us know.
+1 post count! xDD

"Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts."
-Winston Churchill

Releasing Bayo2 on PC would be the smartest thing to do since they get a share of the profits. CEMU will eventually allow people to play it on PC anyway so if Nintendo wants to make money off of it, they need to give an "official" option. But then again, Nintendo has always been a company run by corporate dickishness even when its not in their best interest to be. Remember that time Shigeru Miyamoto shittalked Donkey Kong Country, a game on their own platform, simply because he was asshurt about it looking nice on the SNES?

2 million over 3 consoles is not much but I'm sure it dwarfs what Bayonetta 2 did.

It all depends on production budget I guess, which Sega will not release.

It was improved in almost every way EXCEPT the final hours of the story. It felt so underwhelming fighting Aesir

It apparently sold over a million which isn't bad at all for something on a console with that shit of an install base.

It does. More and more jap games come out on PC. Maybe Nintendo had a deal only for console distribution? Maybe Platinum, Nintendo, and Sega struck a deal when it comes to non-console distribution? Maybe Nintendo is following Sony's footsteps in letting some exclusives come out on PC?


Bayonetta looks like a lower budget title than MGR. Voice overs over still images and limited cut-scenes are probably the most obvious indication of that.

I guarantee you most Wii U sales were made with the intent to play Bayonetta 2

It's why I bought it. Getting W101 among other games was kind of gravy

I wouldnt be surprised if this was the case. Its been long enough that any timed exclusive would've expired

Hey, Nintendo is "catching up with the times" i.e. paid online and region-free I can kinda see that happening.

No, it was this Sony plant's fault for blocking all the good games from coming out in America.

Read the filename that's not Bayo2

Pretty much the only way I see Bayo2 coming on PC is a NGS2 kind of deal and even then it's unlikely because I doubt platinum is willing to piss off Nintendo by breaking contracts to pull that kind of shit and Nintendo isn't gonna willingly let Bayo2 on anything that isn't theirs unless they really changed a lot more than people thought recently.
tl;dr possible but highly unlikely
CEMU exists and I have the real thign so don't give a fuck either way.

I'd expect all of the above to happen but we'll be lucky if we get the best one:


That isn't a picture from the countdown, it's a screenshot from The World Ends With You.

Well fuck you too then.

>post yfw Bayo 4 is a Vita exclusive

Know what else is confirmed?
Same
Person

The moon confirms this. This is not up for debate.

It constantly in combat drops to 50 and during bigger fights on later difficulties it gets lower from there.
Wii-U is worse since the game actually slows down as it drops
Currently your options are Frameskips or slowdown and I'd like neither for my game thanks.

Bruh, you already know 8-bit Bayonetta 2 is gonna come out, stop doing this to yourselves.

...

Oh how beautifully delusional you people are.

...

Nice.

Really nice.

you could have for years now

I've been waiting for so long I can wait a bit more

archive.is/40tYp
archive.is/tXrB0
Its been so fucking long

>inb4 it's just a Bayonetta 3 announcement and it'll be Switch exclusive

I wouldn't be mad. I already have Bayo 1 on 360.

On what? "Above 12" is clearly an exaggeration but what platform can run bayonnaise 1 at 60FPS?

So what are the odds of Bayo 2 coming to PC? I don't want that to be forever shackled to the Wii U because I sure as fuck aint touching that.

"Switch has no games" shitposting is already getting kinda strained, getting something like Bayo would put the nail in that particular coffin.

Never user, unless nintendo wants it to happen, so never. It might get a switch port tho

CEMU is coming along nicely.

I fucking hope so.

yfw it's actually bayonetta 3

I inherited a copy of Vanquish for the 360 that's still in it's shrink wrap. Should I bust it out and give it a go on the 360 first so I can have a basis to compare it's PC port with?
I've never played the game but heard nothing but good things about it.

Consolefags and Idorts tried to warn you about GTA5.


The shills did an excellent job with Vanquish. They've convinced PC-Only gamers that it's the hottest thing since Bayonetta.

All that glitters is not gold and let me tell you right now, Vanquish is shit.

It tries to be Bayonetta with a dude, but fails on every single level imaginable.

It has 5 difficulties. But let's be real.
This shit only has three difficulties, EZ Peasy (normal) , Die in Two Hits ( hard) and Die in 1.5 hits ( God Hard)
You have to complete Die in Two Hits to unlock God hard.

Oh and that is the only fucking unlockable in the game. There's no cool armor. There's nothing to fucking unlock.

Note: at this time, I can't imagine what is worse.
No unlockables or having a golden shit unlockable like Zelda BOTW.

The weapon upgrade system is shit.
Die? Lose your weapons. You will die at least twice doing Mission 6. It's a bullshit escort mission and dying resets the escorts health at your check point. Did I mention that the escort takes increased damage on higher difficulties? If you have the DLC Weapons, it's easy.

Save and quit the game? Lose your weapons, it's a glitch but they never bothered to patch it.

On God Hard, the best weapon in the game is DLC.
Since you can't upgrade your weapons on that difficulty, if you don't have the DLC?
ENJOY STAGE 3 BECAUSE YOU'LL BE REPLAYING IT ALOT.

Glitchy -Shoot It Until It Dies bosses.
Except for that claw fucker who can magically glitch through walls for it's instant kill attack.

Want to know what's even better than Instant Kill Bosses?
The game will glitch badly if you're actually good at it and manage to do heavy damage/ kill it BEFORE the scripted events happen.

Shit generic soundtrack. There's nothing memorable. There's nothing interesting. It's just bland, it's like they used up every penny they had for Metal Gear Rising's soundtrack.

And the worst part? No replay value. There's fuck all to unlock besides God Hard, which just isn't fun and Leaderboard jerking. I get no satisifaction for being on a fucking leaderboard. Gimmie infinite ammo. Let me play as Burns. GIVE ME BURNS' GUN. ANYTHING.
No. Beat God Hard and whooptie fucking doo, leaderboard. Thanks for nothing.

Positives? A human version of the GPO2 and Cali gets nuked and it's one of the few games where cigarettes are used offensively.

In the big list of shitty third person shooters, Quantum Theory and Mind Jack were better than Vanqish.

When you're playing the PC version just think to yourself what it would be like to play it at 20 fps with tons of motion blur

It's a good game but god damn is the performance dogshit, especially for a fast-paced TPS

ayy this guy again

Actual fucking plebbit formatting, holy shit.

I feel like I could write a reasonable response to this post but the abnormal formatting makes it physically painful for me to read and understand your shit.

Can someone tl;dr this? I'm getting a splitting headache trying to read this with that absolute shit formatting.


So it performs poorly on console? Just leave it in the shrink wrap for now?

When is bayo2 coming to an actual system?

If you're interested in keeping a mint copy and you're convinced there will be a PC port, sure. Either way yes, the performance on both platforms is bad.

You're not saying that much, how did you make something this unreadable?

LISTEN FAM
Vanquish isn't the best game since sliced bread, but it is really fun. It's also short and I don't think anyone should pay $60 for it over even $30. $25 at best if you want to pay at all because of the extremely short length. It's shorter than MGR.

How about making new games and releasing then on PC instead of porting these shitty ass bottom of the barrel games, you can literally play through this trash by slamming your dick on the controller

I can see Vanquish being actually decent on PC. The hardest difficulty on consoles is like the normal dificulty on any PC game, and the graphics wouldnt look so bad you can only see the enemies because they have a red light on them

Oh? Did I miss something? Did my local game store fuck up? The Switch section was pretty barren a week ago. How many games does the Switch have currently (and how many of them are indie shit)?

Japanese firms are extremely cautious with their pocket books because the nation has been in recession for 25 years and customers are literally dying or going poor in droves every day. You're asking Platinum or Sega to take too much of a risk when making a new product. How companies work in is when there's older material to resell that comes first, then you adapt material that already sold on a lower medium (lns/manga) up to a higher one (tv/anime) then to the highest (movie/game), then you localize foreign stuff for cheap, then maybe if a project lead sucks enough dick something new can be made at the videogame/movie tier because of all the immense risk involved if a new IP flops that had no sales record of its own. lrn2japan.


Switch got nothing. Worse library than the Wii U was at this point and looks to have far less potential.

I want to cum on her back

is this some sort of brain damage or just pitiful nigger-tier genetics?

Retards sticking out like a sore thumb need to be called out. Posting like a fucking redditor makes posts obnoxious as fuck to read and outs you as the newfag you are.

What are you gay?

Formatting your text in a way is important
if you want to sperg you got to sperg in the right kind of way.

I've been spacing some posts since before Lanced Jack's time and never got shit for it. Is this an epic new meme I'm missing?

Just look at the damn post, its a fucking abomination.

Yeah, it reeks of reddit shit, that's undeniable. But some faggots are getting the autismo at posts


wrote like this

the only new games that came out lately that managed to get my attention are let it die, bloodborne and nier automata and two of those are console exclusives. it's a shame but i don't really mind waiting a few years for the pc port tbh. i've still got plenty to finish in the meantime. more than i can handle, probably.

I want to cum inside Bayonetta and have her take responsibility of it together with me.

My only issue there is why announce it through steam rather than through the switch then?

Also this one.

He really is bayonetta's son.

...

why do only some americans have the weird noses here and others don't?

I think it's a joke about both american noses and to make a poor disguise for the class, like if they were all wearing groucho marx glasses. So the girl without the nose is supposed to be attractive and is also the only new character for the american class, the rest are copypasted but with the nose.

It's the imagination of one of the girls from his class, so she imagines herself as as the only pretty one.

HIRSUTE SLUT

ahh, i figured i lacked context. i guess she likes the teacher too.

but why the nigger instructor also doesn't have a weird nose?

cause they don't need a big nose to look stupid?

but the fat midget nigger also have a big nose

You got me there.

And lick her prolapsed asshole.


Was he saving states in Mario Paint, bazinga?
