DmC

He's got some good DmC insights.

BTW the new Dante is half devil/angel/human. He has these stance forms where devil/angel can make him fly and rip off the environment around him and morphs his 3 weapons.

Did you know that's too similar to Heavenly Sword and Enslaved gameplay? It's copy paste game engine from NT and giving DMC moveset. Plus it will run at 30fps which is a downgrade on 60fps, one reason now he has executions, saw the close up kick slow down like in Batman Arkham Asylum? That's limitation of that and seems he cannot change "stance forms" like in Devil May Cry 4 while attacking, which is similar to GOW weapon changing.

So, basically, this is likely to be an ok game, but not up to par with the original DMCs.

Speaking to the U.S. PlayStation Blog, creative director Tameen Antoniades revealed that DmC’s Dante grew up on the streets, and as such is a little more brash than his previous incarnation.

“Growing up in a situation where the demons are out to kill him; society in general, controlled by the demons, is out to crush him; growing up on the streets… So, he’s more of a street brawler,” he explained.

“His moves are less refined than you would have seen in previous DMCs.”


This is the why he moves slower, but in truth it's the 30fps of Unreal Engine which makes him move slower, besides that the air combo will be more focused with ground executions as seen in the trailer.

Also this DmC is not canon.

After seeing the interview, and deducing that Tobias doesn't seem to be an idiot nor that much of a hypochrite as some other game producers, as well as having the fact that this game is not canon to the main storyline confirmed, I have to take back what I've said about the game not living up to it's predecessors.

Since the game is confirmed to be the story of a different incarnation of Dante, from another universe/reality, thus ruling out lore inconsistencies, seeing as how, story-wise, DmC is unrelated to previous DMCs, I no longer have any logical reason to say that the game doesn't have the potential to be just as good as the originals, or even surpass them, in certain aspects (though the latter seems unlikely), until the release of the game, and after having seen how good, mediocre or bad they've managed to execute the formula.

Furthermore, I hope they release this for the PC, as well.

I raged like hell when I saw the new Dante, raged even harder when I heard it was an unneeded reboot, and rage peaked when I found out its an origin story WHICH DMC3 WAS! Then I found out ninja theory was working on it and my faith was shaken harder. But through all of that I still in the back of my mind was like: "Well I'll still buy it to see how they could POSSIBLY do another origin story. Hell it might even be a decent game overall."

But THIS shit just ruined my hope for the series. As a game, the new dmc admittedly looks fun(but more the when I spent a weekend playing Wet) but if youre looking for a DMC story look elsewhere cause its officially been pissed on and massacred.

I weep for the series I once loved. Goodbye *(

DMC sucked for me when Nero stole the spot light in DMC 4. >_>

CORRECTION: the moment DMC 2 was released.

OK, I was telling everyone to stop whinning about the minor details, like the hair and shit.

But this... What the fuck? They're changing everything that is Dante. You can't suddenly change the backstory on the fifth goddamn game for Christ's sake. This better be some elabrit plot, or I will pray to God that it was information that they fucked up on when they got it.

P.S. Winter, kick ass porfile pic.

Read the last posts I've made, that are all on the last page. They should give you plenty incentive to stop your pointless rage. But, if you don't wanna read the detailed posts, I'll just point out one of the biggest reasons why your rage should stop: The producers have stated that DmC features a story that is NOT part of the main DMC story-line. Basically, this is Dante from another universe.

you gave me more reason not to play DMC 5

Oh well if it isnt actually canon it isnt as enraging anymore at all. Its still a BS move though. Why dont they stop wasting time making alternate universes that will never have any contribution to the series at all and START making Devil May Cry 5. You know, a game that isnt a total waste of everyones time? Now I feel like Ive been trolled by Capcom.

Btw I dont really care who did it but if you -repped me just for stating my opinion and provided a link to facts to support it then you just suck. Good day.



EDIT: I would also like to add that no one would be happy about having their favorite characters, games, and other forms of entertainment trampled on just to appeal to a wider audience, or as I see in this case, watch the fans squirm. Its like when inFAMOUS almost decided to make a new Cole just for the hell of it, and were nearly lynched for it. As developers they have the right to do whatever they want with a series, but that doesnt mean that they should. And now, my bitching is over.

Props to you for deducing that I might have done it, and for being straight forward and talking back at me for something that I did to you, that you thought was wrong. Even though it was kinda pointless in this situation, since rep on forums isn't really of consequence, that characteristic about yourself may help you in life. I -repped you 'cause I thought your opinion was too subjective, and not backed up by relatively objective arguments (the article in the link was just something that fueled your personal dislike).

So, in the future, fortify your opinions with more objectivism, so that your words will actually carry weight when talking back at someone. Still, you seem to have some potential, in this regard, and, to be fair, I undid the -rep just for that.

Gameplay trailer

Oh hey. This baby's up again.

Yeah, I know they're busy with DmC and the such. But has anyone dropped any hints as to whether there'll be a DMC5 yet?
DMC5, as in canon. I'm not sure if calling DmC DMC5 is even correct, since it's technically a reboot. Right? Or is that just to not confuse it with Hideki's DMC?

The more I see the new trailers and follow the stories leading up to this new revision of Devil May Cry by Ninja Theory, I'm slowly beginning to think this game may be a new breaking point for the series, even if it's an AU setting. Whether it can live up to the legacy the original series laid with its version of Dante, personality and combat wise, it depends solely on the fanbase.

As for combat, it looks more simplified than the usual combo crazy gameplay I'm more used to in the series. If the new DMC can't do any of the following in the vid below, I've lost all hope in Capcom's revival of the series.



Besides, the only DMC game I'm setting my sights for is the HD Collection in Feburary, I'm sure that will sell a lot more than this reboot.

A rather stylish trailer

I laughed when Dante put his clothes on while flying.
But...Not really from DMC game...

That was one HALFASS million stab.

Not sure if this is mentioned yet, but this is suppose to be a prequel. Even more so before dmc3, when he uses his devil trigger in dmc5 he turns into the normal Dante we all know and love. How ever without it he's this normal emo kids with black hair. Some compare him with inuyasha on how his hair is black in a "human" type mode, and white in his more half demon appearance. Still unsure on if this is true or not, but it's what I am hoping for, because it will be the closest thing to keeping the real Dante around than this black haired one.

This trailer was more funny than stylish.

I will say this much the cinematechs look nice. The gameplay on the other hand not so much...

Now quite sure what to think about after seeing that, I lost it at 'sexual deviant'.

Still don't like the taking to Dante using obscene language and gestures in this one, as I'm not sure if it's necessary to add to his character. And the gameplay STILL looks too simplistic, I was watching the demo gameplay of this game earlier and they brought the Style meter back, as it seems doing repeats of certain combos ranks up the higher it gets.
