No the original DMC didn't take it's self too seriously ether. the thing was the creator made so that while Dante was a Stylish man (man they pushed that interviews )he was a pizza lover Ala ninja turtles and down on his luck exterminator of demons . cause he would always have his checks bounce and had worse luck at the gambling tables.Is it as satirical as the reboot? I'm really digging the comedy of it, but I'm assuming the originals were self serious. Though, I'm mostly going by the promotional stuff I think I've seen of it over the years.
the problem was with the earlier games, that story was ether secondary or an after thought and when they finally thought story was important it showed up in DMC3 special edition and DMC 4 and the anime to show case why Dante was trying to stop his twin brother.
He made a promiss to his mother not to let Virgil's quest for vengeance against the demon world for taking her life swallow him whole tske humnity with him cause he was screw over the rest of the world to get his vengeance . virgil quest though it's kill those from the demon world obsessed with bringing sparda back or facing him in a dual for ruling both their realm and human wolrd keep seeking sparda out on earth like how people would come to Bruce lee's house to fight him in dual.
But he's acting like thpse demons him self to do so. which means he doesn't give damn about other people around him anymore.
but the demons went as far as to kill Dante and Virgil's mother when sparda supposed disappeared.
This was told in the anime. but because it wasn't in the game some gamer's try to write it off . Even though capcom push's it as canon with the older game series.
but there are versions of jokes in the game's and that anime series. just not an over load of swearing(doesn't matter to me too much, but they did over do it in the reboot) with it like the new one has.
Dante did swear just not to the level the recent reboot went to. I don't think in games. the anime had few. But excessive? nope .
I think the real issue at least with fans of the older series was the head of reboot game started his own problem was dissing older series in video. I've noticed alot brits that writers or any one of them in the in the entertain biz seem to have this weird ego thing going and start insulting anything that came before them make overly known this happened the comic industry with marvel when both Joe Casey & Grant Morrison came about and did the same have
half the fan base hate their work especially after wards when their run's were over. .
Not sure why they are interested in stirring things up and getting people mad at them. Then again I don't care any more . He put him self in that position
