DmC

Same, if it's true LOL, if it isn't, mighty good troll.

I forgot to mention before that the DMC goddess herself, Brea, got a combo video out of the demo on her YouTube channel, pretty cool stuff based with what is contained on the demo so far.

Am I the only one that doesn't think of Vergil as evil? I've never really gotten that vibe from him.

So I just decided to finally get around to playing the demo, and I gotta say, it's nice to be playing a DMC game again. It definitely still has a good DMC feel, but different, so I will say Ninja Theory did a good job with that. The controls feel good and really I never got mad at the game for doing stupid things. Anytime I messed up was basically my fault. I personally enjoy the feel of combat. The music could be better though.

As for Donte, I'm still not impressed. I miss the old Dante, obviously, but I'm still giving Donte a chance. To me though, it's like he's trying to be a wiseass smart mouth like Dante, but just comes off as that little brother who's trying too hard to live up to his big brother. Plus he has a stupid face. Also, why is there a Union Jack on his jacket? I really feel like they're trying to get this "crusty punk" Dante across and I'm just not feeling it. I don't need "Anarchy in the UK" Donte.

I am glad they're trying to do something different though instead of taking the Dante we all know and love, and fucking him up. Personally, I don't want another DMC 2 where the game sucks and Dante isn't even that cool.

All in all, there are things that could be better, for sure, but it still feels and plays like Devil May Cry, and that's a good thing. Would I pay 60 dollars for this game? Most likely, no. Would I pay 20-40? Perhaps. If it dips to 20 and I still don't have it, I would definitely pick it up.

Take this for what you will.

That sounds fairly reasonable and kore or less is how I feel about it too.

DMC-wise. This isn't DMC. Why?


Because Isedelica broke the game because her execution too good. If someone who's been famous for execution breaks a game's engine because of it. It's immediately invalidated of its existence.(She can handle me anytime<3)

But as a new game in general? I like it. It's not DMC, but it's definitely like some other hack-an-slash generics.

A note about the Union Jack; it's a reference to NT being located in Great Britain, (England, to be more precise, but you get the point, right?)

DmC definitely went about a different direction, even for a reboot.

Personally, just from playing the demo, I had forgotten for a minute or so that it was running on the Unreal 3 engine, till I remembered that Dishonored, which came out not too long ago, also ran on that same engine.

To me, even though Dante was changed, in terms of appearance, he still has that cocky, smartass attitude. His sense of humor is noticeabley darker, but I think it's not too bad, really.

Yeah, this was the same video I was talking about before, good to see Brea hasn't lost her touch in making DMC combat look godlike, especially in this one.

Now I'm starting to wonder if the final build of the game will be able to handle Brea's and other DMC pros level of skill, should be interesting.

DmC CG Trailer.
Trailer looks awesome, though I am not really looking foward to the game.

Lately I took an interest in watching japanese let's plays of western games on Nicovideo and then I was curious about what the japanese think about DmC.

If you turn on the comments, everyone was like "wtf" during the cutscenes but then they were like "oooh :O" during the actual gameplay. Pretty funny

Not sure anyone knows this, but the ending for DmC has been leaked on YouTube and the response is far from good.

It's so bad, people are saying ME3 had a way better ending.

From what I've seen, I really like the art direction in some portions of the game. But, I really dislike what they did to Dante. If this game was just something else It'd be a decent game. I can't help but feel torn to play this due to the fact that they destroyed one of Capcom's icons. Ninja Theory's take on the DMC series is modern, and I think that's what takes away from the entire experience. The Devil may cry series had a certain essence with it's scenery and old European settings. Appealing to the masses is one thing, but to completely rework an entire series or character so you can have more an audience as shitty as COD fans is just shit.

A recent review http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/01/14/dmc-devil-may-cry-review-360

Based on some of the reviews, the new DmC is actually getting some good ratings, I have yet to see it drop below 8/10 so far, so it may be Ninja Theory's best game YET.

15/20 on the largest french videogame website.
34/40 on famitsu.

Saw the ending, rushed and just not good.

I will not be buying this because Tamtam is a pretentious cunt and Ninja Theory is a shit studio. Also, I already watched someone play through most of the game, and I must say, I was not impressed.

IGN is live streaming gameplay for those interested.
