There’s no second-guessing Bayonetta, whose wit and commentary are as sharp as the weapons she possesses. It is in the interactions with friend and foe where we see the first cracklings of life, as each character oozes with charisma and individuality.Īn ongoing theme with Bayonetta 2 is “intensity”, and the focus on establishing distinct personalities early on is key. Finally, a pesky Lumen Sage follows your footsteps, intervening when convenient to their devices. Our heroine also runs into a magical “little one” who has some tricks up his sleeve, as he helps guide you along in the journey up the mountain. Luka also likes to swing on by in moments of need, offering a quick quip in addition to following up on leads.
