Super Robot Taisen OG Saga: Endless Frontier. Both a rare game but one that is never discussed that came out on the DS. Really was one that slid under the radar like a lot of JRPG DS games. I'll even throw in Project X Zone from the 3DS as it has a similar concept.

I wrote it off at first when it was first shown, but once I found out who was behind it, then I became more open to the idea. I do hope it will do well, but my suspicions are that it will be ignore because of obvious reasons only to be looked at later with the "were we too harsh?" mindset and find out it was an underrated gem.
No, not just because of the obvious reason most have mentioned, but because I feel JRPGs are designed to sort of have the player be overleveled to progress. Ever since these games "clicked" for me, it is what I start off doing the second I am able to and it has gotten me through many JRPGs.
@Vaasman: I just read through a 500 message board on GameFAQs of two sides (the Talyor defenders and the critical side) talking over this because of the info that was brought to light, and literally they kept mentioning how Bayonetta was not a big series, and it did not matter. My only guess is because Taylor made a mention about how much the franchise has supposedly sold or something and many are clinging onto that.
@blackacezero777: Any help is appreciated so I appreciate the reply, it seemed like a general discussion
Welcome!
@girlusocrazy: Off-topic: have they talked about a new SSB? For real? I just feel like they need to continue pumping content into Ultimate.
Back onto topic: I think if I remember the lore correctly, the series already dabbles into the Multiverse, so this isn't a surprise. I hate to say it is lazy, I feel that is such a grotesque word for the development that goes into games, but it feels....Like such an easy route because it is so common in entertainment right now.
They didn't, I was joking, but I can't imagine they will never make another one again?
On the subject of Bayonetta I tried understanding the lore but gave up, and I think I'm ok with that. I will still be there for the spectacle of it and it doesn't need to make sense. I only was asking out of curiosity if someone else could explain the difference between Bayonetta as a character and as part of someome else. My best guess is timelines that diverge; In alternate timelines someone else became Bayonetta in the future and then they traveled back to the present in the timeline that we are playing in the game before it diverged?
Literally, I've always said there needs to be an Ultimate+. Pump more content into the games, make all of the previous games modes that can be played, with all of the mechanics involved, and whatever else. There is no need to make another Smash, the game already was peak Smash.
Bayonetta is a series that, while I have played, I find myself not liking and continually finding myself not liking it even more. The main character is unlikable, everything is too cheesy, and I don't think it has the same enjoyability as the DMC games. Heck, I would argue it does everything DMC does, but wrong. I tried to give it a second chance, this time but keeping up with the lore and disliked it further as the lore is basically, "we don't know, but we guess it's that?" It's like it almost tried to invoke what Dark Souls did (I am aware I may be off with this), but did not understand why it was used. For all the buzz surrounding it, I feel like a lot of it fell flat and the sequel was better.
Wait, so if I am understanding right, it is being said that there is Bayonetta as we know and then there is someone else that is suppose to be Bayonetta? Like somehow her soul or essence is in a person and thus it is her? Even with what you said, this is kind of another problem: it nearly does not make sense with its own explanations. I literally have read your explanation multiple times and I am slightly getting it, but the part that is getting me is that someone else became her in the future? Er, what?
@jaydan: Pretty much, look at the comment between me and @girlusocrazy. I interpreted it as such, though the second part was about the lore of Bayonetta and how it could possibly contain multiverse versions of her. Or this comment isn't even directed to me, idk at this point.

@girlusocrazy: Not sure, but the new game has multiple Bayonettas.
You mean multiple Umbra Witches? Bayonetta is Cereza...
At least that's what I understand, sometimes there is a distinction between Bayonetta and Cereza being two different entities and sometimes they are the same. Bayonetta doesn't seem to be a title given to a character... So how could another character "be" Bayonetta?
Is it like Venom?
Should I even care?
I keep thinking Multiverse Shenanigans are in play with the game. Different versions of Bayonetta.
