Every costume in the game comes with an alternate version that uses Bayonetta's old hairstyle. At E3 2014, it was announced that an updated version of the original game would be included with both physical and digital editions of Bayonetta 2, allowing Nintendo owners to experience both installments. If you're fighting bosses, minibosses, or even some tougher enemies like Allegiances, Rodin isn't worth it. as long as you or your opponent are only picking weak enemies like Acceptances or Compassions.
Anti-Metagame Character: If you've unlocked Rodin in Tag Climax, he makes the Jeanne-dominated online metagame a piece of cake.
Is Bayonetta really as self-confident and in control as she presents herself? Or was that only possible because she originally had nothing to lose? As a result, she's far more serious in this game than the first, and many times she's visibly worried or stressed about the situation getting out of hand, with examples like her reaction to possibly being too late to put Jeanne's soul back in her body adding to this idea. The first game has her looking to regain her memories before eventually being saddled with protecting Cereza, while this one sees her go up against angels and the demons that give her power, with Jeanne's life on the line if she fails.
This game pokes some holes in Bayonetta's self-confidence by considerably upping the stakes for her. During the Final Boss fight the Cardinal Virtues continue to be summoned by Balder, meaning at this point they don't care about Loptr/Aesir anymore and no longer have any reason to ally themselves with the Big Bad. Alternative Character Interpretation: Despite the fact Light Is Not Good was a big theme in the first game, and they are still not very nice, the angels in this game (especially the Cardinal Virtues) are actually trying to restore balance to the Trinity by assisting Loptr ascend into Aesir, since doing so would restore the Eyes of the World. Cue loads of fans mocking Gies for letting his personal opinion of the character design get in the way of the game, in spite of his claims that the game was nearly perfect otherwise. This was the first game to receive one since 2010. This is especially notable in GameSpot's case, as Bayonetta 2 earned a 10, meaning Bayonetta 2 is only one of the few games in the site's history to earn a 10. This is in contrast to other reviewers who have given it high 9s and 10s. 8.8: The game has received near universal acclaim, with the exception of one Arthur Gies of Polygon, who gave the game a 7.5 for being heavily sexualized.
