Having recently come off a second play through of one of 2014’s top titles Bayonetta 2, I feel highly inclined to offer some sort of thanks or a tangible token of appreciation to what has become, without equal, my favorite modern developer.
As I watched the ending credits of Bayonetta 2 roll by, I felt so elated and filled with joy. I was absorbed in the gaming experience I had just taken in. This wasn’t the first time I’d been overcome with such feelings of freedom and joy. In fact, I’m quite sure I haven’t felt this way since I last played a game from Bayonetta 2’s developer. From the release of their debut title MadWorld, Platinum Games has always pushed the envelope from a game-play perspective.
