![]() We're working to get your pre-ordered item ready for pickup as soon as possible, but it's taking us a little longer than expected.”Īnd as someone who orders all their games from Best Buy (which I should clearly stop doing), I know this song and dance very well by now. Not like Dante's been using it~!Ĭlick to expand.No, I’ve had my copy preordered ever since preorders first when up too, but Best Buy sent me an email saying “your pre-order isn't quite ready for pickup. But who knows?Įver since these "Demon Masquerades" (truly, a Devil Trigger by another name~) were a thing, I couldn't help but wonder if Cereza could "borrow" Alastor for a bonus weapon without getting in trouble. Maybe Bayo3 will add a few more layers to this because "LUL, multiverse" is a thing they're going to be leaning on even more heavily than they did before. So at best, Bayonetta operates in some sort of AU where DMC1 and its backstory happened and Dante exists, but otherwise, doesn't impact the narrative much at all beyond cute references. It's just human world and the demon world. And according to Itsuno, there's no "Heavenly" realm in DMC, at all. ![]() For example, DMC5 proposes that "Tony Redgrave" was named after Dante's hometown. And likewise, Itsuno's games not only don't acknowledge Bayonetta in any way at all, but what they propose would be a mismatch for what those games (and their director) propose as series lore. For the sake of these references, Kamiya only cares about acknowledging the original game, because that was the one he directed. And then there's certain things like a certain piece of art with Enzo literally beating the pants of an off-panel Dante in Poker, which likely is another throwback to how Dante "lost his clothes" for his Viewtiful Joe appearance.īut that's just about it. Kamiya has said certain things like "Enzo is Enzo" (in reference to how there was an Enzo that used to be Dante's biz partner in the first game), and that in his story, "Tony Redgrave" was a reference to Antonio Redgrave, because he was someone Dante respected.
