Do you unlock a bonus scene for fulfilling some condition during the credits?

no, I mean like in the first game, where the fight against jubileus was in an epilogue chapter.

You're gonna have to quantify this because I don't see how it's true.

The fight against Jubileus was just the final chapter by a different name, I'm not sure why they did that and it's probably better they ditched that for this game. The Wonderful 101 on the other hand, had a proper epilogue.
Touch The Sky
Ardor was there IIRC. Not sure about the wheels or Manta rays, but yeah no Joy. Alright maybe more like 85%
I know it's shorter but as someone who legitimately enjoyed the gimmick levels(agreed they could be shorter and having isla de sol right before Jeanne was silly) the horse one looks rather dull and uninspired, although the plane one looks okay if not quite as trippy as the Harrier one. I know people complain MY HEAD'S SPINNING but idk I thought it was fun, just too long(like the second inspired fight should've been dropped completely).
Speaking of, the plane one turns into a straight up Star Fox game whenever you have the Fox costume on. It's like Platinum is begging Nintendo to let them develop the next game.

They learned from their mistakes with the gimmick levels with The Wonderful 101.
They are just using that experiences for the ones therei to make them work better in game compared to the first one

I hope so. I never blayed Bayo1, but I adore the Wonderful 101 yet can barely remember having fun with any of the gimmick sections, except the Punch-Out robot fights.

I Love them myself, personally.

So, how many Sega and Nintendo references are spotted within the game?
Just being me.
"Platinum Stars" = Sega All-Stars Racing/Platinum Games.
"You better thank Alex the Kid for the charter."
Bayonetta's entire color scheme reflects a lot more blue than the first game, which had a dominantly red theme. Her guns have also changed over.
Rings, of course.
Akira Toriyama (April 5 1955 - March 1, 2024).
Touch The Sky
And still no Ulala reference anywhere.
Such a missed opportunity.
Face me now, Bitch!
She also stands top of a bi plane like Sonic does with the Tornado.
The mech suit seems to be a reference to the Magitek armor from Final Fantasy VI of all things, though.
The demons drop orbs instead of rings, like the demons of Devil May Cry, same pick up sound effect and everything.

Touch The Sky
The last one okay but the 1st and especially second one seem like overreaching.
Face me now, Bitch!
Um, not really?
You do realize Kamiya is big sonic fan, so Bayonetta standing on a red bi plane to travel isn't that far fetched.
Also look at the magitek armor

Then look at the mech suit

The resemblance is quite uncanny, and both use magic to move, so.....

Wouldn't the red biplane also reference the one used to escape Mallet Island at the end of DMC1?

Yeah, that seems more like a nod to the DMC 1 Bi-Plane.

An interesting quote from Word of God that should finally put Console Exclusivity issue to rest:
When development had progressed to a certain degree, in SEGA’s situation it turned into “This isn’t a good plan”, so development halted temporarily.
Without funding we didn’t have the possibility to continue development, but we wanted to get this partially developed Bayonetta 2 available to the public one way or another. So we offered it to various publishers, but as it is a big title, we couldn’t find a partner company. Finally, Bayonetta 2 was about to get terminated completely, when…
Nintendo came in and lent a hand and we were able to restart the development we so desired. Finally the game was released last week, so in five years, we were able to make Bayonetta 2 available to the public.
Knowing those circumstances, if someone is still angry for heading towards Nintendo, I wonder what’s the reason for that, wouldn’t you tell me in a way that is easy to understand?
As I have said earlier, if you want Bayonetta 2 on PS 4 or Xbox One, how about trying to ask Nintendo… If Nintendo doesn’t say yes, it’s not going to happen… While you’re at it, try asking for Mario and Zelda too…

Laser-Guided Karma. That's what the Xbots and Sony Ponies fail to understand.

you know, being that rude towards people that probably just don't want a Wii U doesn't give you any brownie points, you know.
Bayonetta 2 has completely bombed in Japan.
Cool Dude
Not surprising, considering I don't think the original did that well in its home country either. International sales might carry it better, though.
We Are Our Avatars Forever (Now on Discord by invitation, PM)
Yeah not surprising really. Although I do wonder if Platinum Games's games are simply more popular in the West than in Japan...
Hum, maybe not 95%
Ardor, Inspired, Joy, Kinship, the wheels, those manta ray thingies, aren't there (unless they are on higher difficulties?) But when I say "less diverse", I'm not just talking about numbers but also about "types".
Now I've only watched one walkthrough, an incomplete one at that, so I may have kept a biaised impression here. But when you have 3 entire chapters that are basically a jump back to the first game, well… that doesn't leave such a good impression.
By the way, what do you all mean by "epilogue chapter"? You mean the one where you fight stuff during the credits? Cause it's there…

Flippé de participer à ce grand souper, je veux juste m'occuper de taper mon propre tempo.
