I ban you because can I quickly rant about some stuff that bothers me in Bayonetta 2?

So, in both Bayonetta games, you can transform into a panther by double tapping the dodge button in rapid succession while point the control stick in any direction. Apparently, the timespan for the second dodge was a bit too small for people (though I never really had a problem with it). So, in the sequel, they widened the timespan for the second dodge to be about half a second. That may still be a bit small to you, but, let me tell you, those extra few milliseconds count for a whole lot. There'll be an attack that I dodge and don't get witch time on, then another attack flies at me very shortly after. I try to dodge it, but I instead turn into a panther and get hit anyways. I'd be fine with turning off the whole panther stuff in general, but I can't do that anywhere. So, yeah. Dodging's annoying. If I want to ensure that I dodge properly, I'd basically have to fight without even touching the control stick, which isn't a good thing to do.

Next thing I'd like to talk about is the platinum time ranks. In the first game, the platinum time rank was very generous. It allowed you to get an amazingly high platinum combo rank as you defeated the enemies with absolute grace. However, in the sequel, they dun messed it up. They made the platinum time rank way too short. It completely removed the concept of defeating enemies with grace, and it made getting the platinum combo rank all that much harder to get. It didn't encourage you to change your battle style, making a video like this possible. Some people take that as a bad thing, some take it as a good thing, and the others don't really think about it. I take it as a bad thing, obviously, especially because I like the selection of weapons in the second game more than the first game and I want to use them to the fullest extent.

I just remembered that I said "quickly rant".
