I played the first Bayonetta a couple years ago and I honestly hated it. The amount of button mashing in certain combos put a lot of strain on my wrist and I had to turn down the difficulty and buy the items that make combos easier to finish the game. I'd like to think I'm at least a little above average for games in the same genre like DMC and the original God of War games but Bayonetta 1 was a real challenge for me.

Would I have an easier time with the second game? The trailer for Bayonetta 3 inspired me to continue the series but maybe these games just aren't for me, which makes me a little sad.
