Why is SEGA releasing Bayonetta 1 on PC if they, supposedly, have no plans to bring over 2 or 3?
>here's a taste of heaven in high-res and smooth 60fps >if you want more you have to buy a tablet and play it in low-res with ~40fps
Like, what the hell? Are they trying to get us to buy Switches or what?
Such a fucking asshole move. I was certain the exclusive contract with Nintendo had passed when they announced the first game was coming to all platforms again.
Also, inb4 >muh delicious tears and salt memes
Everyone should get to enjoy these games even if Nintendo helped out, so fuck off.
Nathaniel Brown
Suck my dick salt nigger
Jackson Gray
You are honestly not missing much from 2
William Ortiz
Agreed, I played both back to back on WiiU and ended up preferring the first game overall but can understand what OP's getting at since the franchise is basically locked to Nintendo now with the third game on the way
Robert Miller
...
Ian Murphy
Because Sega only published Bayo 1 and Nintendo funded 2 and 3 you fucking retard. How about you actually research this shit before you post you jackass.
Nicholas Ortiz
Because Nintendo funds them now. You can blame every other company for turning their nose up at Platinum's desire to make a sequel first before they went to Nintendo.
Ian Ramirez
>being so poor you spend actual real time whining about platforms
Nathaniel Hughes
Sega is cucked by Nintendo
They would probably have committed seppuku 20 years ago if they knew what's going to happen
Aiden Evans
This.
Nintenfags paid for the 2-3
Alexander Ramirez
Stop being a baby Nintendo saved Bayonetta
Zachary Williams
fuck off difficultyfags. 2 is better in almost ever regard.
Ethan Clark
Would you rather not have Bayo 1 at all?
Tyler Evans
delicious tears and salt mmm
Sebastian Morris
Same deal with BB, first party publishing. Drop the cash, emulate, or quit bitching.
Jayden Cruz
Fuck off, PKeks. You've stole so many WiiU games through emulation and now, you're demanding one of the games to be released on PC so that you can pirate it again.
Either get a Switch like us or just fuck off. You can afford to stick 4 GPUs into your PC so surely you can buy a $300 console.
Brandon Hall
this game has been on pc for years
Michael Sullivan
There is really not a huge difference between the Switch and PC versions. Honestly portability makes it worth the slight difference, and fps is nearly a constant 60 docked. Regardless don't know why you'd care so much about performance for game as old as Bayonetta of such a negligible difference.
Nathan Young
It just looks prettier
Hudson Jenkins
>Like, what the hell? Are they trying to get us to buy Switches or what? Thats the gist of it yes. >Such a fucking asshole move. I was certain the exclusive contract with Nintendo had passed when they announced the first game was coming to all platforms again. Oh, you thought that? Terribly naive. >Also, inb4 >muh delicious tears and salt memes >Everyone should get to enjoy these games even if Nintendo helped out, so fuck off. Also reddit spacing, and that nintendo should render bayonetta 2 and 3 they funded? Talk about delusional
Cameron Powell
Gameplay in 1 is objectively better.
Thomas Edwards
Sega has no choice with 2 and 3. Nintendo paid for the development and publishing, therefore Nintendo makes the decision. I don't know if you've noticed, but Nintendo doesn't make or publish PC games.
Zachary Lopez
I find it hilarious that after over 4 years people still are getting pissed over this
Jason Cook
Blame Sega since they had no interest in funding Bayonetta 2 and Nintendo were the ones that did
Also CEMU
Justin Clark
It's almost as if exclusives are an unfriendly consumer practice.
I assume you have no problems with Sony exclusives. Because that's "different " somehow.
Either way, it's one series that Nintendo pretty much owns now, so it's more incentive to buy their systems.
Brayden Fisher
THIS IS THE THOUSANDTH FUCKING THREAD THAT'S HAD A COMPLETE BLITHERING RETARD IGNORE, DELIBERATELY OR NOT, THAT NINTENDO FOOTING BAYO 2'S BILL AND PUBLISHING IT MEANS IT WILL NOT BE ON ANY OTHER PLATFORM, AND "BECAUSE I WANT TO PLAY IT ON PC MUH 60FPS" THREADS ON Sup Forums WILL NOT MAGICALLY MAKE NINTENDO GO AGAINST THEIR OWN EXCLUSIVITY CONTRACTS
>I find it hilarious that after over 4 years people still are getting pissed over this DMC and GOW series becoming shit within a decade has fucked with their minds to the point that they still cry over DMCV and GOW4 being substandard compared to Bayonetta and other spectacle hack and slash games.
Samuel Watson
Honestly, I think it was to promote the series and get people to buy a switch if they want more. Kind of a smart idea, IMO. Nintendo was probably in on the whole thing.
Gavin Sanchez
According to Kamiya, Nintendo ok'ed the Japanese audio addition to the PC version.
They have more control over the IP than you think.
Jackson Cook
Nintendo has interests in bayonetta, sega just wants undue recognition when it was nintendo to relaunch bayonetta as a nintendo ip.
Nicholas Hill
Well they did have to get Nintendo's permission to let the Steam release use the JP dub, since they only added during the Wii U port/anime sessions.
Wyatt Hill
>I was certain the exclusive contract with Nintendo had passed Nintendo basically owns Bayonetta at this point
Jace Garcia
This, feels like 2 was just made to make more money.
Julian Morales
>I prefer bayo 1 over 2 How you know if someone doesn't have a switch or wii u lol
Grayson Robinson
Bayonetta 2 was a relaunch bayonettaas a mature nintendo franchise like Zelda and metroid
Carson Thomas
Sup Forums will never believe you they trusts anons more then the guy who made the fucking game
Austin Taylor
>Nintendo starts buying the sequels to running series and release past games multiplat in order to force people to buy their shitty hardware if they want to play the full series
Is this the worst timeline?
John Ramirez
But for how long?
Adam Adams
>Like, what the hell? Are they trying to get us to buy Switches or what?
That seems to be the intention, yes.
Luke Hill
I feel 2 is better. The first game has such shit pacing.
2 is just action from start to finish
Austin Adams
Nintendo doesn't own the Bayonetta property itself. Just 2, 3, and the content made for the Wii U version of the first game.
Jacob Gomez
After being a fan when I played the first one on PC and knowing the rest are never gonna come out on anything else ever again, it's is quiet painful but really there's that can be done. All we can do is wait... Wait until emulation is perfected and we can finally play the rest. Knowing this I am willing the wait even if it takes many years to complete. But no matter what I can't completely hate nintendo, they keep the series alive and I'm more thankful for it. So just be patient... We waited for worst things that this.
Mason Ramirez
Just stop being poor and buy a freaking Switch already.
Austin Reyes
Most of Bayo 2's weaponry is lazy retreads of Bayo 1's weaponry shitposter-kun, Rakshasa is Shuraba in all but name and one or two different combos and Undine is the same with Durga. Bayo 2's original creations are nice but I'm not a fan of Love is Blue's limited moveset in comparison to Scarbarough Fair from 1 and just the one battle tune outside of bosses gets grating after a while desu
Robert Evans
Why would Sega want that though?
Chase Taylor
I mean can't you just emulate it on pc?
Anthony Campbell
>give money to Soytendo Nah. I'd rather bitch about it.
Leo Fisher
But mommy agreed when i said pc was better than consoles and nintendo was for kids
Mommmmyyyy
Caleb Jones
I agree.
Bayonetta is a real-life monkey-pawn senario.
>you can save the Bayonetta franchise >BUT it’ll be Nintendo exclusive
Ryan Flores
I don’t want a Fischer’s price tablet
Jeremiah Bailey
Because Nintendo's funding their game development?
Asher Jones
That’s Such a fucking hassle and the performance is sub-par. Not to mention it’ll only work for the second game.
They should just put all 3 on steam desu
Logan Kelly
Hm probably because Nintendo owns bayo now you fucking retard Also both bayo games run at 60 on the switch, so eat a dick nigger
Aiden Russell
>muh toy
OP wouldn't even have legs to stand on if this never got ported
Ian Perry
Shit nigga that'd be awesome for games that are basically dead or near death anyway. Imagine if they scrounged up a worthwhile team to resurrect Legacy of Kain, Virtua Fighter or Panzer Dragoon.
Kayden Hughes
>Nintendo owns Bayo >the first game is available on everything
Christopher Howard
PC/Switch is a great combo though. I’d recommend just getting one so you can enjoy all of Bayo.
Ryan Stewart
t. cope mode sonyggr
Jason Smith
Obviously. But seeing as how they own 2/3rd of the series, funds the development and advertisement of those games, gave her a spot in Smash Bros, and even gave her an amiibo, she's effectively a Nintendo do IP in all but name. Even if SEGA, Sony, or Microsoft suddenly decides that it's an IP worth pursuing, making a sequel would be borderline impossible since a huge chunk of the series is exclusive.
Nolan Nelson
>PCbros will never play Bayonetta 2 and 3 >PCbros will never play Bloodborne and Shadows Die Twice At least a Microsoft let you guys play uh...Halo 5 Forge...and uh...Gears of War 4. After you’ve installed W10, that is lmao. What a fucking joke.
Kayden Wood
Nintendo told them to do a PC release so more people could get into the series since it was already multiplat on consoles. Then when they liked it, they would be forced to get a Wii U to play the sequel.
Leo James
>even gave her an amiibo
two amiibos and a 99% chance she will get a third when Jeanne gets her first.
Austin Price
Just a random thought..
If Bayonetta suddenly starts to sell well for some reason, could SEGA choose to just find the next game themselves and fuck over Nintendo by releasing Bayonetta 4 multiplat?
I mean, it’s their franchise.
Would be sweet to get another game on PC.
Jeremiah Clark
>2 consoles and all you can name is 4 games, half of which aren't out yet
Hunter Anderson
Of all the games I never would have expected Bayonetta to be a never ending salt mine, and it's only going to get better with the release of 3.
Dylan Gomez
Better than whatever populates top 50 of Steam.
Gavin Scott
This is exactly my opinion about Bloodborne. I have a PS4, but I’d like 60 FPS locked with 2 seconds long load screens like with DS3, not drops to 10 FPS and 1 minute long loading screens. I also have a switch, but I couldn’t care less about Bayonetta.
Xavier Garcia
Technically that should be possible. But they seem pretty tight with Nintendo. I doubt they’d risk that relationship.
Brandon Miller
That’d be sweet af
It’d be Monster Hunter World all over again lol
Carter Sanchez
Sega wouldn't risk their honoru with Nintendo, they sell fine with Nintendo, and Sega are also the masters complacency.
Andrew Hughes
I can get behind that.
Though I feel Bayonetta is worse since it’s an ongoing series and not a new IP.
More like Having Dark Douls available on PC and then locking Dark Souls 2 behind Ps4.
Gavin Foster
AHAHAHAHAH
QUEEN
OF
SALT
SLAAAAAYYYYY
Luis Cox
Who would be the king of salt?
Alexander Nguyen
This is why I think exclusives are bullshit. I have all current gen platforms plus pc (no xbox for obvious reasons), but let me say that again; exclusives are BULLSHIT.
Liam Myers
SEGA just want to milk the PC audience with their cock-tease release. They are continuously releasing old ass port on PC while using that money to build newer games on console.
And people still support this shitty practice of them by falling for their scheme. The moment SEGA decide to port old game instead of newer one to PC, you should just pirate them all instead
Joshua Phillips
yeah it would have been better if it wasn't an exclusive. Then nobody would play it because it wouldn't exist.
Kayden Sullivan
Why are half the bayonetta threads complaining that it sucks and the other half whining about 2? 2 isn't even that good.
Aaron Howard
>People complain about the lack of third party games on their systems. >Nintendo goes out of their ways to get some. >Now they're the bad guys for doing what they were asked of.
Julian Smith
If it’s financially profitable on a single platform, it would be on all platforms as well. Some publisher would fund it sooner or later. Nintendo was there just sooner.
Parker Taylor
How is Bayonetta even 3rd party if it’s funded by Nintendo and they own the game?
Sound 2nd party to me.
Noah Turner
1)Nintendo funded the development of Bayo 2. They were the only company interested in doing so. 2)Since Bayo 1 wasn't a Nintendo exclusive, why not release it again on one more platform? 3)I don't understand your logic. "Why did they release Game 1 if they had no intentions of releasing Game 2?" Since when is that mandatory? It's not an implicit obligation to play every sequel, you know...
Adrian Parker
Before they funded the 2nd game, the series was. Either way, they made the effort to get the game onto their systems, when they could have not done anything.
Ethan Rogers
except nintendo was the last company they went to not the first. Everyone else already said no.
Jeremiah Morris
>people want more PC ports >but Japanese branch won't let us do their games >guess this will do
Benjamin Morgan
>with ~40fps I think you meant 60 fps with very rare drops to 55
Robert Turner
It started as third party, now it's second party to Nintendo.
Kayden Brooks
Only that he's missing a game better in every way
William Rodriguez
It’s scamming people, like buying a pair of shoes but you can only buy the right shoe in the store you’re at. If you want the left you’ll have to purchase it at the more exclusive store that has an entrance fee of $350
Elijah Stewart
You could just get CEMU OP and play Bayo 2 at 60fps 1080p.
Dominic Young
Isn't Bayonetta 2 just more of the same, anyways? I finished the first one last year, now I can't distinguish 1 and 2 when I watch videos.
Julian Perry
Of course it’s more of the same, it’s a sequel.
It just fine-tunes everything in the first game and fixed the pacing issues.
Alexander Wilson
Except you bought both shoes, and now they're launching a brand new model. That would be more accurate Holy shit, you can't be this retarded.
Jacob Campbell
You get to go to hell in 2, which is pretty cool
Oliver Baker
...
Brandon Brooks
Wow you're fucking stupid, my only hope is that you aren't an adult that actually thinks like that.
Michael Barnes
Even if you guys got the port, So youd be happily supporting Nintendo to contiue doing what they are doing and help and pay for developing of more games to be made that people want?
I asked this before 2 years ago of sonyfanboys, but they shit the bed of anger and confusion, because they know theyll be giving Nintendo money for the game they want to play even though they hate Nintendo for being "childish", not having any plans of being a third party dev, or stopping whatever plans they have for the long run.
Jayden Moore
>objectively Don't use words you don't understand.
Dominic Cruz
I've learned that most of these people don't actually want to play it, they just want what they can't have, so to speak.
Dylan Miller
I don’t give a shit who pays for it as long as I get to play it on my platform of choice.
From what I can tell Bayo 2 isn’t censored in the slightest, so Nintendo doesn’t seem to be interfering much of at all.
Nathan Williams
If you wanna piss and moan about Sega, at least avoid Bayo 2/3. Nintendo paid for those games to be made, and they're as such exclusive to them. There is literally nothing keeping Yakuza, Persona, Project Diva, or VC off PC except Sega's own fanboyism. In fact, all Yakuza game's since Zero have had "PS4 console exclusive" badges on them, which has also been used for SFV and KOF14, both of which saw PC versions. The worst part is the fact that Sega knows full well that PCfags want those games (so much so that they made an article about it), so they'll instead port games they didn't ask for like Puyo Puyo Tetris.
