being able to mash a button and get an SSS rank for it is not good gameplay at all and is even more insulting to actual DMC fans that anything else in the game

They fixed that, for the record.

no, they didn't

no matter what way you look at it, getting an SSS rank should not be as easy as it is

plus there's no lock-on, no taunting, all of the weapons are generic and boring as f*** and

why am i even bothering

I agree, the combat is pretty mediocre. If it didn't carry the Devil May Cry name, it wouldn't be awful, but as it is, it's horribly disappointing.

That said, I will acknowledge that the environments of this game are usually pretty cool. I've only watched a few videos, but I've seen pretty much what I expected - cringeworthy dialogue, lackluster combat and neat morphing environments.

I always imagine that being pronounced as Don't-e.

Well, since it was a parallel universe piece we can still at least hope classic Dante will return for another go. Maybe this whole stupid trip will remind Capcom that they still have one of their greatest villains ever to still use

It probably won't

After all, who cares about what the fans think when you can just pay reviewers to say they liked it?

Yep, all those great reviews Mass Effect 3 got meant they didn't have to change a single thing about it, right?

If the game gets enough backdraft, they'll realize it was a bad idea and go back to the way it used to be. Because we are entitled little jerkfaces.

This is Capcom we're talking about, though.

Megaman Legends 3 is still cancelled, Ace Attorney Investigations 2 still isn't out in English and their games still have on-disc DLC.

Vergil got the worst treatment of the reboot from all the characters.
He's acts like that one character that goes: "I'm bored. Let's do s***"

-Shot a pregnant lady in the womb and ruined the trade
-Offered Dante his kindness and loyalty to make him join and work under the order
-Wanted to take down Mundus so he can rule over the world?

And at the end of it all, the game gave us a cliffhanger ending and credits of behind the scenes studio with credits in plain text. I assume that we're going to see a sequel to DmC then.

Seriously, WTF?

Tbh, I think it's okay to be a bit upset. I definetly agree that some people went medieval on it way to early and for the wrong reasons, but iunno. This was quite the reboot, in the sense that almost everything was changed bar the names of the characters. Of course fans were gonna get upset.

I really liked how the game looked from the start but the more they revealed the less I liked it. I feel like some of the characters were really cliché and some of the dialogue became even worse the DMC's predecessors.

I think DMC:DmC could have been a great standalone game or even a series if it geared more towards interactive changing enviroments (wich were cool in the game) and other new stuff. I really think it shouldn't have used established characters like Dante and Vergil. This game would've been better as a new IP with new characters in my opinion.

How is acknowledging its flaws unfair?

Semi-related, this video of Rising was posted yesterday, and it's f*** nuts. Pretty sure I'm preordering now.

okay so

somebody takes your favourite game series

and completely f*** over everything

your favourite character is no longer a cheerful, silly guy, but an unlikeable c*** who kills a pregnant woman and gloats about it

the combat is now just button mashing instead of having actual depth

there's retarded platforming sections

the music is now wubstep and screamo s***

people aren't being unfair

people are calling it f*** terrible because it's f*** terrible

serious question here: have you even played the f*** game?

because if you haven't, stop f*** trolling

that's not what a mod should be doing

So, Rising's gonna have Captain Buggy and Nico Robin. I can live with that.

I remember seeing this video that explained just why Don'te is such a bad character. From what I recall, it was sort of a mixture of Ninja Theory making him completely different and trying to make him similar enough to the original to make fans like him at the same time. He was initially a more silent and brooding type, which could have been fine in its own right, but they felt the need to make him as c*** as possible to make him more like the Dante we know, which clashed with the rest of the game. He could have had an original personality, an original devil trigger even, but they fixed it to be more Dante-y, so they could be like "will you like this game now? he's not that different from the games you love!"

What's wrong with the game, of course, is a somewhat simplified combo system and the good guys shooting a woman right in the baby.



I guess this is the new norm for new companies making new games in the series. They overdo the character's friendly c*** into plain c***, and then they make controversial misogyny jokes. It's the Duke Nukem Forever rape scene all over again.
