Listen, if be okay with Viola if she was an optional character, like King Zero from the first game or Rosa from the second. With Bayo 3 I have literally dropped my controller out of frustration (usually when playing Viola). When I got hit in Bayo 1 I never felt frustration, because most enemies and arenas were designed to allow you to experiment and figure out your own play style. I would love to be able to use the new weapons and techniques in a better designed, petter paced game (like Bayonetta 1), but as it stands, playing 3 feels cheap. I fucking hate saying this, but I'm genuinely disappointed. Bayonetta 3 is flashy, for sure, but it feels shallow, at least on the first playthrough. When everything is meant to be special, nothing is really special. It's the DEFINITION of too much, too quickly. Remember the Grace & Glory entrance cutscene from the first game? Remember how memorable that was? Well, hope you DIDN'T like that, cause Bayo 3 will likely never give you that feeling. They constantly throw enemies at us with no sense of pacing or progression. It's too much, too fast, nothing seems to matter and nothing is special. The time between this ‘noon one’ and ‘noon two’ may not actually be twelve hours, but given as that is about as close of an estimation as I can make and relates to the cycle I’m used to, we’ll go with that. From now on, when the Lumarians leave it is zero hour. I’ll use that as a benchmark for the rest of my timekeeping though. So far, I can say with some certainty that the Lumarians leave at noon. I can’t rely on outside patterns to help me forever, so I have to figure out what’s triggering them instead. I have to learn the patterns of the rest of the world relative to the minuscule changes in light outside. Because I don’t have a direct comparison and cannot differentiate between them, timekeeping has been a full-time job. In addition to this, there’s no time when they’re both in the sky and I can see both from this window to compare them. Obviously I cannot stare directly at them for any period of time to get an idea of size, shape, minute color differences, etc, and they’re similar enough that at a glance they look the same. I just have to be able to differentiate between them, which is the part I’m still struggling with. If you have time to think about it, as I have, the two suns really aren’t all that different than a moon and sun in terms of placement in the sky at specific times.
