DmC Devil May Cry

[sonicchriz]

Why the hell are people whining about the new dante!?!?! I saw the trailer for DmC and I thought was badass here is the trailer



The fanbase can't stop bitching about this...... *facepalm*

[Tanassy]

Face it.. they ruined Dante. He used to be cool, now he looks like a malnourished angsty teenager. He's gonna be like a demon shadow.

[Hakudamashi]

I like how you can tell he's no longer cool just because of his outward appearance...

[Tanassy]

I like how you can tell he's no longer cool just because of his outward appearance...

i liked his attitude, his style, his voice, his looks, everything. Dante was an awesome character. Now they think he's "for an older Generation" an want to turn him into some emotionless prick. They even dared mess with his fighting style.. and where are all the other characters? Adn there's no meaning behind "Devil may Cry" anymore. :L

[Hakudamashi]

I don't agree with his design sure, but until I see a cutscene of how he acts and reacts to different situations, then I can tell if it's really Dante
As for the fighting style, it's too floaty...

[Tanassy]

Yeah, I suppose you're right. But it's still DMC in name only now..

[Hakudamashi]

I just realised that this isn't DMC5, but more like an alternate universe...
Why reboot a franchise that's been going great so far?

[Tanassy]

Exactly.

[Hakudamashi]

Suddenly all the DMC rage makes sense...

[Tanassy]

Suddenly all the DMC rage makes sense...

Exactly!

[jkid101094]

Dante went from looking like a badass to looking like a Twillight geek.

Also I want more Trish. :U

[Tanassy]

I wonder if he's still going to be extremely sexual all the time.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u7LEP67i5Ug&feature=youtu.be

First I whip it out! Then I thrust it! With great force! Every angle..! It penetrates! Until...! With great strength...! I... ram it in! In the end... We are all satisfied... and you are set free...!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JqERWEAd_yk&feature=g-all

Since when was DMC a platformer...

Also, I hope it plays in 60FPS.. a DMC game at 30 would be absolutely terrible.

^^^^^^^^^^ THIISSSSSSS

[Hakudamashi]

I'm surprised at you guys
Bashing and scorning this man just because of how he looks
You haven't even seen the man in action in an actual cutscene yet, he could very well be the badass we all know and love, just looks different

This is just as bad as those Sonic fantards that complained about "green eyes" >_>

[~Bubblicious~]

Green eyes.

Plus, if you didn't notice, Tana wasn't just ranting about the looks. He went into more detail, or did you not read that much?

Green eyes.

Devils don't cry.



"They even dared mess with his fighting style"
"Where are all the other characters?"
"There's no meaning behind "Devil may Cry" anymore"

[jkid101094]

Green eyes.

Devils don't cry.



"They even dared mess with his fighting style"
"Where are all the other characters?"
"There's no meaning behind "Devil may Cry" anymore"

The Jewish people had paper clips.
Bronies had paper ponies.
The DMC fans will now have the phrase, "green eyes".

[Hakudamashi]

"They even dared mess with his fighting style"
"Where are all the other characters?"
"There's no meaning behind "Devil may Cry" anymore"

Wat's wrong with the fighting style? Other than the whip thing to pull enemies towards you, he's still pretty much Dante tto me...

The Niggah has black hair and you expect to see characters he doesn't meet until God knows when? But if this IS a "re-boot" and not an origin story as I'd like it to be, then seeing new designs of old characters would've been nice...

The only game that bothered to elaborate anything about Devils crying was DMC3, unless your talking about the store being absent, then this may be how he got the idea in the first place.
If your talking about how in every game the devils (Dante, Vergil or Nero) are stricken with some for mof grief somewhere in the game which hints that even a Devil May Cry at times of hardships and suffering then... you got me there =/

[jkid101094]

Why is a reboot the 5th game in the fucking series?

[Hakudamashi]

Why is a reboot the 5th game in the fucking series?

A series that's been going pretty strong at that...

[Tanassy]

A series that's been going pretty strong at that...

S-s-strong?

1- Success
2- Fail
3- A success, for the most part.
4- Extremely mixed reviews, mostly a fail

Hrm.
It sells "well".. but it's a series that is more and more of the same every time, so to say it's "going strong"... I dunno.

[Hakudamashi]

4- Extremely mixed reviews, mostly a fail

I don't understand why most people call DMC 4 a fail
Other than the backtracking as Dante and the terrible platforming that don't last long, why does it get so much hate?
And even so, every stylish beat em up ever is always being compared to DMC, it is the standard of all beat em up action games hat allow you to "string combos"
And it's not like DMC4, even with all the hate, dragged the series down far enough to need a reboot.

No, I loved DMC4 too, but it's the "more of the same" (don't fix what ain't broke dammit) and the "Artificial Lengthening" of the game that helped it get it's bad rating.

I don't understand the reboot either. And I understand the constant comparing. I guess I'm just failing to get my point across.

Contradiction?

[Tanassy]

Contradiction?

A successful franchise and one that is "going strong" are essentially two different concepts.

And a DMC game is more of a fan's delight than a strong sell.

[TailsLover2010]

so DMC5 is a reboot?

And that is probably why he looks like a pile angst and stuff?

Im not okay with this.

Yeah.

That, or some really twisty prequel..

[jkid101094]

Or a total mind fuck.

[Hakudamashi]

Will it be worth the money?
From the gameplay vids, it certainly looks like it

[sonicchriz]

All I know is that the fanbase are really fucking pissed off -_- but I heard the game is gonna use the unreal engine for this installment

[Darkamyrose0x0]

WHO CARES!

Vergil is hot.

[Hakudamashi]

WHO CARES!

Vergil is hot.

If you say so

[TailsLover2010]

WHO CARES!

Vergil is hot.

NOPE.

[PrestonTheHedgehog]

The devil may cry fans will cry...

[jkid101094]

I can't find the old topic so here you go.

[shadowDOESrock]

I can't find the old topic so here you go.

this game looks amazing.
sure, the artstyle is different, but c'mon - its definitely not as bad as everyone makes it to be.
Besides, its Ninja Theory - they only made AAA Games as of now.

[jkid101094]

Besides, its Ninja Theory - they only made AAA Games as of now.

If those three As each represent one game then, yeah.

[Hakudamashi]

I don't care how great the game is, unless it becomes a new IP instead of sh*tting over the DMC lore I've come to know and love, then f*ck it

[shadowDOESrock]

and sonic has green eyes and lives on earth.

...strange, isn't it?

I, atleast, welcome the change. Started to feel... old in DmC4.
OWAIT, REMEMBER HOW YOU PLAY AS NERO IN DMC4? REMEMBER HOW EVERYONE HATED DMC4 UNTILL IT CAME OUT BECAUSE OF NERO?

[Tanassy]

Most people still think it's a shit game because you play half the game as him... and then you replay the game backwards with Dante.

[Hakudamashi]

and sonic has green eyes and lives on earth.

...strange, isn't it?

Difference
It's the same character Sonic the Hedgehog, but older, and the planet they live on, as far as my knowledge goes, was never referred to as "earth", they just call it "the planet"...

But in this, they threw the original Dante right out the window, character background and all...

They pretty threw Sonic's story, style and background out the window too...

But seriously, it's a reboot, get the fuck over it.

[jkid101094]

You mean that Sonic had a story and background BEFORE Adventure?

[Tanassy]

Yes... he did, actually.

[Hakudamashi]

And I hate Sonic Team for it, just as how I'm hating this DMC reboot

Mortal Kombat also did a successful reboot without throwing away the original MK lore

What link, other than the game being called DMC, does it have with anything related with the DMC universe?

[shadowDOESrock]

[jkid101094]

Cool story, bro.

[shadowDOESrock]

Cool story, bro.

if you dont care, why did you even reply?

[jkid101094]

if you dont care, why did you even reply?

I figured you were expecting me of all people to swoon over anime cleavage.

But she looks kinda fugly. That better not be Trish.

[shadowDOESrock]

Actually, she looks rather real instead of being anime-based.

[jkid101094]

Actually, she looks rather real instead of being anime-based.

That's probably why I dislike the design.

[SmashFinale]

Yes... he did, actually.

Dont forget this about Sonic: all those events (Sonic 4 included) was leasing up to Sonic Adventure. The story always said that the gems belonged to an ancient tribe.

But anyways, back to the topic at hand. Is it a new type of gameplay too or just a different story?

[Hakudamashi]

"Tis a reboot

[Tanassy]

Oh god what is that...

;~;

[jkid101094]

Oh god what is that...

;~;

All I know is that it better not be Trish or Capcom is going to hear from me. >:U

[shadowDOESrock]

Gamers around the World are sure that every Reviewer on the Planet has been payed by Capcom!





How dare everyone to give the new DmC really good reviews? There is no way it could be a good game, because Dante looks different. >:O

Reviewers are all paid.

I played the demo, the gameplay is fantastic and feels like Devil May Cry.
I'm still butthurt about this "reboot" though...

[jkid101094]

From what I've personally heard the only good thing about it are the fights.

[Hakudamashi]

From what I've personally heard the only good thing about it are the fights.

Yeah, the actual gameplay is great, which I guess is  what really matters, but if this causes the death of the good 'ol Dante, I'm gonna bust some caps.

[shadowDOESrock]

good 'ol Dante

... I need this game.

[jkid101094]

... I need this game.

It's funny because his hair and clothes change to resemble retro Dante in-game.

...still stings a bit, though.

[Hakudamashi]

... I need this game.

Fuck you and fuck that scene

[shadowDOESrock]

[Hakudamashi]

That's his opinion
I'm still not buying this.

[shadowDOESrock]

I've heard nothing but great about the new DmC, its currently topping the charts in most places.
Then there are the Capcom-Haters and Whiney Fanboys who cant move on and are still suck in the early 2000's.

I really want this game... if it wasnt for Metal Gear Rising coming out in close proximity.
I wish i'd be able to play the MGR Demo.

Anyone played the MGR Demo? Any good?

[Hakudamashi]

I've heard nothing but great about the new DmC, its currently topping the charts in most places.

Just, fuck off

Also about MGR, the action is what you expect from platinum games, y'know, excellence. However, Raiden is soo f*cking overpowered that he doesn't have the power to dodge... at all...

[shadowDOESrock]

So, I just beat DmC Devil May Cry. Amazing Game, can't wait for the sequel.

Though I saw the ending coming already way before the game came out.
Yes, his hair turns completely white and 'cool' as it was in the previous games. In the sequel he'll probably look the same as in the previous games.

The changes in Dante's persona arent as big as I expect playing through this, considering the outcry. He is still a wise-cracker, 'being awesome', yet lazy guy that always stands up when he needs to be.
But I guess, a YouTube Video that shows one scene of him saying 'Fuck you' makes up his personality.

Really, anyone who says THIS Dante sucks clearly hasnt played the game. Or is still hung up the design itself. And there are alot of crazy acrobatic cutscenes in this as well, not as much as in the previous ones though.

The Artstyle blew me away. I was also stunned by the fact that SO much was going on in the later levels without the game EVER slowing down below 60fps. (PC)

I think there could be better plattforming segments. I mean, this game has alot of platforming but it is never that hard. The tools they created would've made some fantastic platforming. And I actually did miss the lock-on feature like... twice during the eight hours.

There's also a 'life' system in place... which is just... completely stupid. After a 'game over' you simply restart at the last checkpoint, which usually isnt that far away.

Now, I've only played DmC4 - So I dont know how well it fairs in comparison to the first 3, but its certainly better than that. That said...

This is certainly a game that someone must have played through, especially if you like hack n' slashes and ESPECIALLY if you liked the previous DmC Devil May Cry's.

And honestly... this is one of the most memorable games I've ever played.

I also was expected alot of dubstep - because those people in the YouTube sections that hate this game kept nagging  on that.
There wasnt alot of dubstep. Most of it was rock/metal.

You can get this game really cheap for 360, PS3 or PC on both Disc and digtally.
You'll also be able to rent it if you're paying for a PlayStation+ (US) subscription.
Give it a go. \(^^

[Hakudamashi]

Free on PS+ Fuck Yeah.

[shadowDOESrock]

... I need this game.

It's funny because his hair and clothes change to resemble retro Dante in-game.

...still stings a bit, though.

I found this to be hilarious from the get go, but it becomes even funnier when his hair like this permanently by the end of the game.

Free on PS+ Fuck Yeah.

No PS+ Game is free, you're paying a subcription.


---

And I gotta be honest wind, you've been missing out.
And I see even less reason to dislike or be so judgemental about it now that i've actually played through it.

Dante still acts like the Dante from before. He's a bit annoyed and lost at first, but it makes sense in context. He grows during the game.
Hell, there are scenes downright copied from older DmCs. Tough nothing as awesome as the chair-scene from DmC4.

The only thing that actually does seem to be a major change is Mundus. He should've been a new character.
Though, admittely, there should've been a few more combos. It aint by far as limited as Metal Gear Rising's Moveset, but still.

[Hakudamashi]

I like how you assume:
-I didn't play it and beat it already
-I didn't like the game
-I didn't like the characters

Good to know you never payed attention to any of my arguments =/

[shadowDOESrock]

I did, but you kept talking about it being on PS+ lately which made me assume you didn't play it and are gonna play it then. 

[Hakudamashi]

I've been mentioning it cause now your money goes to Sony, or whoever gets money from the PS+ subscription, which makes it easier for people/me to give credit to Ninja Theory for making a good action game, and ignore CAPCOM for their shit decisions.

Also, you think this game's platforming is hard? Bitch, do you even Mario?

[shadowDOESrock]

Well, it still goes to Capcom technically. Sony has to pay for the free games somehow lol

Also, you think this game's platforming is hard? Bitch, do you even Mario?

I think there could be better plattforming segments. I mean, this game has alot of platforming but it is never that hard. The tools they created would've made some fantastic platforming.

Really, the whole pulling / pushing / dash thing could've made some amazing platforming / platforming puzzles.
In the end it was just about reaction.

[Hakudamashi]

You design a platformer then, punk.

[shadowDOESrock]

You design a platformer then, punk.

Give me a dev team and i'll do.

[Hakudamashi]

Put up a "Help Wanted" poster.

[shadowDOESrock]

Have you played the expansion?

[Hakudamashi]

Yes. Made me dislike the writers, and that final part is the cheapest shit.

[shadowDOESrock]

Yes. Made me dislike the writers, and that final part is the cheapest shit.

I thought it was awesome.
Though, fighting a white Hollow Vergil in a desert will it suddenly starts raining certainly reminded me of something.

[Hakudamashi]

We all made the painfully obvious Bleach joke already, spare me.

I think it's be alot more worth it if they gave us Vergil as a playable character in the main campaign, like DMC3, but no, we got this short... acid trip.

[Tanassy]

Virgil's downfall was...

IT WAS AWFUL!
it wasn't worth my pre-order at all.

[Hakudamashi]

I didn't even pay for it and I felt dissapointed.

[shadowDOESrock]

Yeah, so, this is still one of my favourite hack and slashes, like, ever.
I mean, y'all might disagree, but whatever. 10/10 from me.

I liked Vergils Downfall too, despite being... yeah, it was a 1:1 rip-off of Bleach, but it was still cool.

[Hakudamashi]

Did you play it again recently or something?

[jkid101094]

Found this video. Pretty sure this is the most relevant place to slap it rather than giving it a new topic.

[Hakudamashi]

Saw that video years ago.
