I can’t say I agree with the Bayonetta comment, but it’s because I only played it at a friend’s house a few times growing up and think it’d go over as well as a Final Fantasy movie.
FF 13 sucked for me. The sudden transition to even more linear environments, my salt about a lack of turn based combat, and the oh-my-god-they-out-finalled-their-fantasy with the cutscenes longer than dissertations. I love Sazh, love Fang, I fucks with Vanille and I low key love lightning design and a return to the gun blade. None of that could save that game for me, though. Oh, and fuck turning gods into vehicles, that Shiva-cycle was lame



I don’t know, i’ve NEVER seen a believable performance from Dwayne Johnson. But John Cena and Bautista have both really dug down and widened their range. The rock does the same movie, same shirt, same stupid Kevin Hart addition, constantly. The guy from The Run Down is the same as the guy from fast and furious is the same from gridiron gang.
