The third entry in the Bayonetta series continues the trend of the games being a joy to play.
The gameplay is tight, the scenes and moments are very cool, and especially the ending had very very cool stuff. Unfortunately, some parts of it are not great.
For example, the Viola sections. I don't like how she plays, parrying for witch time is very different to get used ro and it's not just that it's a parry instead of a dodge, it's that it feels like Paper Mario 64 block timing, sometimes witch time being like 2 seconds, which is useless.
Also, I can't overlook the graphics; the game itself is very stylish, but there's something about it that feels... blurry? Besides the obvious jaggies, the style has this kind of clay look that I didn't love, I liked how Bayonetta 1 and 2 looked better.
Still, this game is still very much worth it, special mention to the music! (Except the battle theme which I'm 50/50 on)
