Just finished this game. Got it on kickstarter. This game is a freaking masterpiece. Sure there are problems, all games have them. But there is no game like this. Every second is action packed and addictive. I hope there's a sequel at some point. You really fall in love with these characters by the end. I am now a 101 superfan. This game seriously rocks.

He even was responsible for both screwing up Mighty No. 9, and setting in motion the deal that would lead to Scalebound getting cancelled. Kamiya himself has subtly admitted that Bayonetta 3’s development has been rocky thanks to all the Dangen stuff going on.

DarthMayvin in terms of Kickstarter physical backers are now not getting the game until after retail. Late June. Who knows about the other merchandise. Prior to this they sent out digital codes and then stated that they sent out the wrong codes yet backers still reported not receiving codes. Communication has been bare minimum. You’re not dealing with platinum but the yetee. And then the question of how much of a remaster is this as supposed to a port. From day one there has been too many questions (like tencent investment) and yes there have been answers but not always.
