Good, I can't wait to get my hands on it again.

[Frocto]

Originally Hard Mode was going to be called Grace and Glory's Magical Funtime Adventure

[Disposable Ninja]

Nowhere is that truer than Chapter V on Hard. That fight with some Decorations right before Grace and Glory are introduced? Replaced with Grace and Glory. The fight that introduces Grace and Glory? After you beat them three more Grace and Glories appear (two lightning, one fire). You fight another three later on.

kinship's only Real annoying attack is the missile spam, which can be taken care of by shooting them down

[Disposable Ninja]

Actually, what usually gets me are the clamps. Anyway, the only Alfhiem so far that's giving me almost too much trouble is that last one in chapter II, the one where you have to get six torture attacks in 2 1/2 minutes -- that's damn near impossible.

And one of the Umbran Tears can only be acquired by doing it on hard.

yeah i had some trouble with that one too, equip the bracelet that makes enemies mad so they attack more, and when you go into witch time, just taunt.

and there's a BUNCH of crows that only appear on hard

[Disposable Ninja]

I completed Hard Mode yaaaay. I got the Bazillions, which really aren't that impressive, yaaay. I got three achievements at once yaaaay I'm six away from having all 50 too yaaaay.

I got a bronze statue on hard, which was really way more than I was ever expecting. Seriously, I'm almost at two whole bars of health, and some enemy attacks reduce me to one bar of health after a couple of hits.

Addendum: Found out who does Bayonetta's voice. She also does Yomiko Readman.

[Frocto]

I think I got a Silver for the upside-down dragon.

Okay, after plowing through this on Hard and beating most Gracious and Gloriouses on my first try, I can safely say anyone who has trouble with these guys is a pussy.

1) Jump in the air and spam rockets until they are spread out or until you feel like stopping, since they LITERALLY HAVE NO WAY TO HIT YOU WHEN YOU DO THIS

2) Scroll most of them off-screen and slap one around with PPPKKK until you have full Torture.

3) Torture.

I beat that highway fight with the three of them without taking a single hit, because I spent the entire thing sitting in the air. And I'm not even using the Kilgore glitch, just normal Kilgore, since the PPPPK combo is ALREADY broken without needing to weapon switch. Honestly, it's really disheartening how they just sit on the ground staring up at you if you jump high enough. I KNOW YOU HAVE AIR COMBOS WHY AREN'T YOU USING THEM YOU YOU

DOUBLE ANGEL

Oh yeah, speaking of PPPKKK, is there a combo that does more damage than the last hit of that? If there is one, I am having trouble finding it.

[Cthulhu-chan]

I'm pretty sure some of the ones that use pauses are better, but UGH.


edit: also when I discovered kilgore shoots rockets downward when you jump off something's head, gracious and glorious became far less threatening.  Actually, kilgore and the rosaries are kinda cheatin' mode against them, since the explosions stun them pretty good.

[Frocto]

I don't mind pausing in combos in DMC, somehow it was less obnoxious/more rewarding in that. Case in point, that spazzy air combo Nero  has, High Roller or whatever, that does twice the damage of his normal air combo.

Anyway, is it damning of this game that my six year old nephew was playing and I changed the difficulty from Very Easy to Easy because he wasn't getting hit EVER?

[Cthulhu-chan]

The marionette accessory will throw in dodges instead of attacks where appropriate.
