That’s exactly the kind of news I wanted to wake up to this morning. Bayonetta, the titular star of Platinum Games’ sexily sexy action title, hasa very tender mouththat has been crafted with love, care and lip-gloss. That’s the word from Masanori Takashima onthe latestBayonettablog, anyway.
“The first thing that I set out to do was to get the right feeling for the tenderness of her mouth,” he explains, probably erotically. “For instance, the instant she opens her mouth, there should be a sense of adhesion as the center of her gloss covered lips part and open. Or when she talks, it is important to express the smoothness of the movements of her lips. All of these things needed to be integrated into a facial controller …
“To get across the idea of seductiveness, I paid particular attention to lines of sight. For the well-experiencedBayonetta, she should be able to easily kill a man with her eyes alone. She could look one over from the tips of their toes to the top of their head, or maybe throw in a flirtatious sideways glace, or shoot a look with upturned eyes. She is a woman with an incredible amount of sassy.”
Cue my obligatory, unfunny, too-much-information ranting about how much I want to shag a videogame character and make love to the actual disc itself, through the little hole in the middle, even though that would be very painful and probably make my gentlemen’s quarters resemble pulped mincemeat dipped in menstrual fluid.
