GG or Foolz or Yoda ... can you recommend me some music in a similar vein to Samurai Champloo? ... sort of laid-back, funky, jazzy, hiphop-y  perhaps sort of similar to Nujabes (only artist I can think of whose work I know to be like that)

Don't have anything that perfectly fits the bill, but nobodyknows+ is sort of funky hip-hop, but tends to be more upbeat.

Pizzicato Five!

Maybe? I...dunno. I'm out of my element here.

Personally I think it's amazing that you can make a combat engine like that that is incredibly accessible and incredibly deep at the same time. And because it actually is deep, if you suck it's your own fault and you can't blame the game. If you were button mashing and getting pure platinum (or at least platinum), then you could complain. But you're only getting gold.

Wait...GG experienced Bayonetta 2's combat first? Okay, then yes Bayonetta 1 feels awful in comparison (at least, if you don't know what you're doing). However, the music and cutscenes are awesome. Just skip them, though.

Re-read my post, I said I've gotten "Gold or higher scores". I have got a few Platinums.

And I don't suck at it, I've been getting good scores. The cutscenes are diabolical, truly diabolical.

They go something like this:

BAYONETTA

I thought I smelled a big willy in the room

BLACK GUY

You want a drink Bayonetta?

*Bayonetta stretches her leg onto the bar for a crotchshot*

BAYONETTA

I think I need a little pick me up

MOBSTER

Why am I always havin' ta deal with all the angels, trashing ma stuff, makin' it t'hard to make a living when....

BLACK GUY

Well why don't you try this? *slams shot down on bar*

BAYONETTA

I think I left my wallet in my other pants. *leans suggestively over the bar*

*fucking awful 80s keyboard jazz music plays - cutscene ends*

Its supposed to be cheesy fun GG. its not a serious game storywise whatsoever. Most games of this type have cheesy stories. Ninja Gaiden is by far the best in this regard. They're all about the style of game play on offer.


That said, I like Bayonetta for its cheese. Its kind of like enjoying a comedy horror movie.

I love cheesy fun, but I don't find Bayonettas cutscenes funny, at all. Just shockingly bad. And dat keyboard jazz music is just.... unfathomable. I dont want to skip cutscenes because otherwise I have no understanding of what is happening or why it's happening and yet I can get stuck in an overlong cutscene and feel my will to live slowly ebbing away.

Now this is cheesy fun.

Hey AC... thinking about you. Hope you're doing OK.  <3
