Haha no. Not that I don't think I COULD, but the exclusion of witchtime, one of the things that makes the game so fun, sounds booooring. I'd rather just work on getting pure plats on everything.

I'm pretty sure you can still use the Time Bracelet, though. It would be sort of useless if you couldn't.

Time Bracelet, by the way, has a very limited use. You can't taunt and you can only enter witch time by using it.

And I think it goes without saying that you'll want to get the Time Bracelet before attempting Pure Platinum.

this might be the first game where i WANT to get all 1000 e-dick points in it.

and from what i hear, you CAN use the time bracelet in infinite climax, but it fucking INHALES your magic meter.

the less stupid method is using that bracelet that replaces WT with an EXTREMELY powerful explosion.

Wow, every time I replay a level, I find something new. I learned that you can jump on the heads of any enemy, and if you're wearing Kilgore stilettos, you also blow them right the fuck up. I learned that there can be multiple Alfiems per level, which had never occured to me.

And I also learned that, while although the Nun get-up is pretty sweet looking, wearing it on Route 666 is about the dumbest possible thing you can do.

some of the alfhiems require backtracking, which is annoying

so far i've beaten just over half of them

Pillow talk (the light saber) appears to be nothing but a reskin of the katana....until you discover how to make the blade HUGE, increasing the amount of damage it does by a large amount.

Alright Route 666, what the fuck? On normal, you make me fight three Joys in the middle of a freeway while cars unexpectedly drive right into me doing damage. Alright, fine.

But then on Hard you throw three Gracious and Glorious' at me? Those guys? While cars I don't see coming do damage to me and break my combos and stun me just long enough for Gracious and Glorious to get me into the middle of one of their uppercut combos that take off half my life? Who are immune to Witch Time?

FUCK YOU.

Seriously.

I beat that in one go. But at the same time I have heard plenty of people complain about it. I just got lucky. :P

Yeah, you got lucky, bastard. You got real lucky.

ANYWAY, these Platinum/Clover guys? They get it. Bayonetta was clearly lovingly crafted by a group of people working towards a single goal, completely pristine and unsullied by clueless executive meddling.

Despite what its visuals may tell you, Bayonetta is not a game about Excess. It doesn't waste a single move, a single second of the player's time. It has you, constantly, working towards a goal, the reward for which points you in the direction of another goal. It incorporates Achievements into the actual gameplay, as unlocking them grants you access to more rewards, and scoring all 1000 gamer points means you've only accomplished a quarter of everything there is to do in the game.

And once you've done everything there is to do in Bayonetta... well, then you get to start up a new game as either Jeanne or the king of the Little Devils, Zero, and do it all over again.

Okay, I beat it.

It felt like they did everything they'd wanted to do with DMC but hadn't been able to. The second motorbike level made me burst into hysterical laughter, which I haven't done since BOULDER PANCH. It was one of those magical videogame moments, like when you beat Great King Purge or whatever.

I think if I could change one thing about the game, it would be to remove Kinship. Those things fucking suck.
