DmC: Devil May Cry

Ok, that was a funny bit with the list. At least this Dante won't be boring, that's a concern cleared
 
Not digging the cursing, feels to forced. hes flipping people off, writing **** you, and saying **** you. Dante lacks the fun of the original character. This new Dante just comes off as a dick.

Boss fight looked cool. Nothing we havnt seen before though. Even content wise. A gigantic female slug that makes an addictive soda? Sounds quite a bit like the Slurm futurama ep.

Look at the Tomb Raider reboot. Thats how you do it. If you wanna change something this drastic just make another game and dont call it DmC. The games not that old. Hope Capcom gets there **** together and goes back to the normal DMC universe after this.

The Tomb Raider reboot is still called Tomb Raider. They didn't change that either.
And he's being a dick to demons. What's new? I'd do it too if they wanted to kill whenever they spot me me and called me a ''piece of ****''.

I know Im all for Tomb Raider, that game looks awesome. Was saying thats how you reboot a series.

Not liking the new Dante. Seems very off to me compared to the original games. As cheesy as the other games may be They were very fun in spirit. This guy looks and acts like a *****ebag. So far an Unlikeable character trying to be cool.
 
this is supposed to be a prequel right??

so wouldn't it make sense for younger Dante to behave differently than the Dante we're used to?

The one thing that irritates the hell out of me is when people say this is suppose to be young Dante. For Christ sake DMC3 Dante was 18. DMC3 was the prequel that revisited Dante in his younger days. This is a Reboot and there just making up there own BS for this game. Why did they have to run DMC4 into the ground. God man I wanted to get a game centered around Virgil. Now all that old canon is just thrown out the door.
 
Just different.
I still prefer Dante. But I hope we can get Vergil with his Yamato in the second game of this new take.
 
Didn't play DMC3 special, how far is it better to play as Virgil?
Its very fun to play as Virgil but his skill list was extremely limited compared to Dante. Im also hoping he returns in the later installments with more diverse moves/weapons.
 
That's way more thought than I would have ever given to a DMC game.
Regardless I like DMC3 for what it was, and the actual story works for me.

Yes it is a lot of thought for something like DMC, but the original is one of my favorite games. The sequel was terrible, and I decided I wasn't going to play 3 after seeing the trailer.

I played Special Edition a year or so after it came out. Easily the best playing of the series, but as a game it came no where near Devil May Cry for me. The enemies, the character designs, the story, the atmosphere, all lack tremendously compared to the first game.

Still, a lot of fun to play.

I should ask you the same thing. That's just what I've been saying to you. For some reason, you think Dante is different from you. People grow and change.


Yet, if they say it is the same character, then it is. The same way that Rachel, in TDK, was the same character, besides her slight change in personality and another actress playing the part.

If it is played in the same continuity, in the same universe, in the same story, and they tell us that their character is the same, then it is. It's their freaking story, they have the final say. Dante could have acted like 60's child for all I care. It's the same Dante until they tell us otherwise.
Have you never seen, for example, people act like hippies nowadays? That's also a thing from past decades. They probably weren't born this way. They changed along the way and decided to act like that.

Also, Vergil was being controlled by Mundus in DMC1, forced at his will. His true personality was only showed in DMC3. There was no sudden change, because that was the first time his character was truly displayed.

I love how your answer to the question boils down to you can't critique the story or the characters. Well done.

And yes, Vergil is controlled, but through his mannerisms his similarity to his brother show through.

Yep, yes and yeah.

And I love how you took a week to respond and still couldn't come with a better argument, resorting to irony.
 
have they said if Vergil will be in DMC??
 
No and the problem with do over's is they might not show him at all too. we'll have to see what happen with this one.
 
I hope he's at least mentioned......and shows up in a future game.
 
Me too, and I bet he will. Vergil is huge with the fans.
The best battles I had in the series were against him in DMC3. Specially the battle at the top of the tower, in the rain. Epic.
 
If Vergil isn't in this game, no biggie IMHO. This DMC is an "alternate dimension" story.. An Earth 2 if youvwill.. Not really avreboot or doover.

I feel that's Capcom savingbface incase this flops. At least it feels like that to me.
 
it's more like their doing this cause their not sure what do to with out it's original creator. And don't want to hear complaints from fans when their screwing up the series further.

any ways here's

What Capcom Learned From Ninja Theory While Making DmC

August 9, 2012 . 2:39pm“Largely what Ninja Theory has been known for is what we’ve been impressed – the quality of visuals, the cinematic camerawork, facial animations, and their tech is really good. We learned some things there,” producer Motohide Eshiro answered.

Capcom's first-ever Gamescom press conference got off to a good start as Devil May Cry's producer Alex Jones confirmed that Ninja Theory's DmC reboot will prominently feature at least one character from Devil May Cry games past: Vergil, Dante's twin brother.

He looks like a slightly older, blonder (or grey-haired?) Dante, and in this game he's the head of the Order, a sci-fi demon-fighting organisation. They've been estranged since they were children, but Vergil recruits Dante to the cause during the game.
Capcom also showed off a brand new gravity-bending section of gameplay, showing Dante confronting a demon who secretly controls the world news agenda as the world bends and shifts around him. (In DmC, the demons are a pernicious controlling influence a lot of our world media - here, Dante was running through a pastiche of a certain notorious North American television news outlet.)

He was introduced in a new trailer, which we'll have right here for you shortly. We'll also have impressions of DmC from the show floor in the next day or two.

A PC version of DmC is still in development, and will be released after the console versions.

NicE!
I hope we get to fight him at some point.
 
glad Vergil's in!!

I hope he can be unlocked as a playable character.....

also, I wonder what the "certain notorious North American television news outlet" referred to in the IGN article is.............
 
Interesting take on Vergil, really nice they're not repeating the same character arc these two went thru in DMC3.
 
It is like they want anyone who liked the original games and cared one iota about the characters to dislike this one.
