On the contrary, there&#8217;s a tendency to consistently fall back on the same sagas, almost agonizingly so. And, of course, as a terrible consequence, <strong>to ignore other sagas that might be more worthwhile<\/strong> than the same title repeated over and over again. For example, &#8216;Bayonetta,&#8217; which since its debut in 2009 has only had three parts and a spin-off\u2026 at least, for now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">They took him in Kamiya<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And it&#8217;s that <a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/one-of-the-most-important-creators-in-the-world-of-video-games-says-goodbye\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Hideki Kamiya<\/a>, the legendary co-founder of PlatinumGames and director of &#8216;Resident Evil 2,&#8217; &#8216;Devil May Cry,&#8217; and &#8216;Okami,&#8217; has decided to leave the studio, where he had been since 2006 and held the position of vice president. <strong>Fans have grown nervous fearing the end of the acrobatic witch franchise<\/strong>, given that &#8216;Bayonetta Origins&#8217; didn&#8217;t sell too well and, without its creator at the helm, it might mean the definitive end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Personally, I&#8217;ll never understand why &#8216;Bayonetta&#8217; didn&#8217;t make the necessary impact to continue and become one of the most important video game franchises in history. <strong>It&#8217;s fun, violent, with a unique sense of spectacle<\/strong>.

But, of course, his vision will likely end up buried by PlatinumGames&#8217; commercial interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fans are keeping their fingers crossed after the fantastic experience that was the third installment, <strong>hoping that it doesn&#8217;t just stop at a trilogy <\/strong>of <a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/mortadelo-and-filemon-arrive-to-steam-although-not-exactly-as-you-remember-them\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">games<\/a>.
