That's according to games journalist Imran Khan, who offered an insider peek at the sequel's lengthy delay on his Patreon, reflecting on why those open world rumours seemingly didn't amount to anything in the end."At one point in development, Bayonetta 3 was scoped as a semi-open world game," Khan wrote on a public.
"There was a lot of work and experimentation on this idea, but it kept falling apart when it came to pacing, and eventually Nintendo wanted them to scale back. It was, I hear, also not particularly well-performing on the Switch hardware either." Interestingly, Khan adds that"there's still a lot of vestiges of the semi-open world design in the final game" and gives hub world, Thule - which is"broken up into smaller pieces that Bayonetta and Viola navigate to get into the next major world" - as an example.
"The chests were redesigned a bit to be searched for in larger areas and provide a lot more variety to make use of the environment. Even the various weapon transformations were going to play into traversal a bit," Khan said . New Public Patreon Post: I have COVID, but here's a newsletter about how Bayonetta 3 was once a somewhat different kind of game, the strange racial politics of FFXVI, and how big a Dragon Quest fan is Ichiban Kasuga?
