This run was inspired by - [ Ссылка ]
I guess this is my farewell to Bayonetta and other slashers. I've got an arthrosis of my right thumb. I felt physical pain since chapter 12, but my dedication was stronger.

I really wanted to do the same run for Bayo2, but there are some problems:
1 - read above. Artrosis (I'm only 25y.o. T__T)
2 - This run is impossible. Not only it is impossible to get all PPs, it's impossible to beat the game with handguns on NSIC. Chapter 9 Verse 3 (muspelheim) is impossible to complete with handguns - not enough DPS.

My run is much less challenging than the original, especially because I use every checkpoint if needed and don't even try to do it in 1 segment. This is less skillful than B's run, but this way I can play more aggressive and make it more spectacular.

I had some rules:
-TA's are limited to ultra bullshit sections only.
-Angel weapons are used only if dropped by enemies naturally (the only other way of getting AW is by using TA, but I used it only in 1 alfheim and against Joy, who don't drop weapon).
-Feather attacks are used only if I have 4+ mana (simply trying to not abuse eternal testimony).
-I was trying to start every chapter with no mana, but may be I fked up somewhere. Anyway, there are no seriouse fights in 1st verse in any chapter, where full mana would change anything.
This rules aren't strict, so I believe I broke every one of them at least once, because I just wanted to. This rules are not part of a challenge - this is how I play usually.

About weapons:
Handguns only. Even on bosses. Scarborough fair is used only in "Use wicked weaves" alfheims (but this is still challenging, because I used to do it using Shuraba).
For some reason feel slide (lock-on + forward + kick) in serious mode produces WW even with handguns.

About accessories:
Eternal testimony + bracelet of time is broken asf. And you still have something to say about Bayo2 BoT? But still this is fun.

About enemies:
Once again, people used to cry about blocking enemies in Bayo2, but did you try fighting angels in melee? Most of them can block! Even sweeps aren't always working as proper combo. This is really dumb, when G&G blocks 2nd sweep from behind laying on the ground after 1st sweep. But averall G&G are the most fun fights in the game. The least fun by far are Joy fights. Their attacks aren't better than Bayo2 Sloth. I'd say it is even worse. At least Sloth keeps dodging if you shooting them. Joys can attack from block instantly. Dogs are still dogs. I hate them (not real ones. I love real dogs).
After playing so much Bayo1 and Bayo2 I can certainly say Bayo2 enemie's attacks are MORE telegraphed and much easier to react to with only exceptions being Aesir (his final form) and Sloth.
The only reason Bayo1 enemies seem better is hit reaction. Wicked weaves are OP, and the game encourages you to abuse it, to play zoning, so you can avoid fighting enemies properly and never know how bs they are. Yes, you still can react to most attacks, but things like Joy's whip or Ardor's stinger exists. If you could knock enemies away or knock them up in Bayo2, you would see its enemies as an improvement. So problem is not the enemies, but sytem mechanics.
Balder fight is straight up cancer. 1st and 2nd phases are managable. If you jump he follows you in the air and you have time to use afterburner kick, knock him away and use 360+punch safely. But in 3rd phase something changes, and it's almost impossible to hit him with ABK. + He has literally unreactable attacks with seemingly no startup. During editing I checked frame by frame his attacks. When attack has startup, it still looks like he just flying closer to you.
I had to use all 2 checkpoints and still it took me 2 hours to beat him with no damage. Idk how B could make it in 1 segment.

In the end it was fun experince. It wasn't hard at all. Only Joys, Jeanne and Balder caused problems.
