Will they ever let this go?

DmC, gameplay wise, wasn't the worst game ever made. A modern, """hip""" DMC could've turned out a lot worse.

I'm glad it failed because I really wouldn't want it to supplant actual DMC, but I've played worse games.

It’s a 6/10 game that carries the Devil May Cry title but is its own reboot thing. The DE version makes it a 7.5/10. It’s edgier than mainline, but that’s about it.

It's better than 2. That's all you can say about it.

>Vergil gameplay in DMC4 copied from DmC Vergil summoned sword teleport mechanic
>western looks of DmC used in DMC5, to the point many were confused and thought it was DmC2 when it was revealed, some until Nero’s sword was revved, some until Dante showed up at the end
>Nero sprouts angel wings, inspired by the concept arts for DmC’s Dante Angel Trigger
>industrial metal used in DMC5 soundtrack (V’s theme), Dante’s theme sounds like shit Combichrist did
>foul language in the demo
>last kill cam straight from DmC
>Dante’s only alt costume is a recolor that follows DmC Dante’s color scheme AGAIN (happened in DMC4 SE too)

yeah, we sure “won”

And yet Itsuno saw everything they did and approved as producer or whatever his role is.

>fanboys need to get over it
by fanboys you mean game journous that won't stop talking about a game that came out almost 6 years ago?

they made a reboot of a niche franchise that tried it's hardest to piss off it's small fanbase

Some of those things like the dynamic soundtrack and stylish editing are just borrowing good ideas from an otherwise mediocre product.

Honestly most people would’ve been ambivalent about it at worse, save the few autist, if Tameem hadn’t come off as an arrogant cunt to the fans. But instead he ran his mouth and now he’ll be forever remembered as the cunt that tried to replace Dante with an edgy self-insert.

DmC did more damage to us in the long run because we pretended that MGR was the “real” kind of action game we wanted since they both released in the same timeframe, when MGR is bottom of the barrel style over substance, and newfags at the time picked up MGR as babbies first action game and still think it’s something amazing to this day.

I didn’t mention dynamic soundtrack

Edgy shit that journalist praise because western people made it and made it easier overall.

FUCK YOU!

Just play Bayo3

this, it oozes style and has a cool soundtrack, but as an action title it’s very surface-tier, has no depth once you get used to the parrying

I unironically loved that game. The soundtrack was dope, the bosses were mostly fun.

Yes, we did. All of that is superficial bullshit that doesn't matter. What matters is that Itsuno and the core Capcom team developed it. In terms of gameplay it's overwhelmingly more similar to DMC4 than DmC. Saying the visuals are like DmC is disingenuous because they look almost nothing alike, people just make the comparison because they both use more advanced mocap tech than DMC4. DmC had ridiculous amounts of color contrast, DMC5 is much more subdued/grounded in most cases.

They didn't babysit, they micromanaged and are responsible for a lot of the issues. For example, Ninja Theory got a lot of shit for ruining the character but that wasn't them, that was Capcom. Ninja Theory originally said they didn't want to touch him but Capcom demanded they reinvent the character for "modern gamers". They spent a year reinventing the character over and over and over again before Capcom finally gave approval for one of them.

>DmC is in some generic top 10 “meh” chart maybe once a year
>fanbase still makes edits of mainline characters killing DmC characters
The obsession is still there
Most people remember him for Hellblade now, rather than DmC.

@you're a retard

average action game that cant ride on the fame that is devil may cry.

vaporware. Look, I’ll play DMC5 and enjoy it, I’m just saying DmC has definitely had an influence, which is specially obvious when you consider Itsuno’s old and very recent comments about DmC.

They will never let it go

that was mass effect 3 but dmc was the final Nail in the coffein.

It's the Diablo 3 of action games.

I liked that there was still some humor in it that you would easily find in mainline, such as the intro of Dante getting changed while his trailer is being thrown.

Uh oh, babby’s feelings hurt

DmC won cause DMC curahyzee fans can’t stop talking about it and getting mad even after DMC5 was announced and is so close to release. DmC also won because the gaming press will keep referencing it as a good reboot.

It’ll forever haunt the fanbase in a way that even DMC2 couldn’t.

It's true. This is not a secret. Both Ninja Theory and Capcom have opened talked about it. Sure, Ninja Theory had to sell it. Do you honestly think they were going to get up there and say "We hate this shit but Capcom is making us do it"? In regards to the gameplay most of the "fixing" was just making it more like anime, e.g. "It needs more NOTHIN' PERSONAL, KID attacks with hitstop, you dumb gaijin!"

Liking 2 is a sin

not gonna lie, you are right

There's a difference between being a developer and a player. A developer is generally more willing to accept the work of other developers and allow drastic changes. He could very well have considered the whole thing an experiment. Alternatively he just had to go along with it. It's hard to say. If Itsuno had not been involved at all the final product would have almost certainly been much much worse.

Which begs the question, why even have Ninja Theory at all if they have to be babysat by Capcom anyways? The whole concept was a mistake. It was part of Capcom's awful outsourcing spree, which thankfully they've acknowledged was a bad idea.

The DESIGN was similar, but was the personality? Keep in mind DmC's story was written in-house by Ninja Theory. If there's anything about DmC that's almost guaranteed to have Ninja Theory's fingerprints all over it, it's the script.

Frankly if I was in Capcom/Itsuno's position, I would want Donte to look as different from actual Dante as possible to avoid damaging the brand. It's very easy to distinguish the two, which might not be the case if they actually tried to make Donte's design like Dante.

Actually I didn’t, but someone did copy this one from here, I only made this post and

>In regards to the gameplay most of the "fixing" was just making it more like anime, e.g. "It needs more NOTHIN' PERSONAL, KID attacks with hitstop, you dumb gaijin!"

You're a moron.

>anti-consumer corporate shills
This is true but I have always thought that plenty of them genuinely believed it was a superior game simply because they were to inept to understand why the others were great and what this one was actually getting wrong. So when the only natural conclusions are either that you are incompetent or internet fanboys are being fanboys something like this is inevitable.

Yes we did. I dont have any screenshots of when DMCV getting announced but I saw a ton of butthurt DmC wienies. lament over the fact the game wasn't for "Them" anymore.

It was a victory so sweet I could taste Taneems tears.

Oh, fuck off. They went on and on about how everything needs fucking hitstop as if it's the only important thing about gameplay. Hitstop is an exclamation point. It doesn't work when you put it on every single fucking attack. The japs need to learn that.

That's not something you would find in the mainline series. DMC is a sexless universe and they would never play up nudity for a gag. It's completely out of tone from the original games. The one time in the entire story of DmC where Dante even comes close to sounding like original Dante is when he busts out of the church window and complained about the service taking too long. That's it. The rest of the game is a complete 180 from what the original series is.

The lead dev self inserted himself as Dante by changing Dante to look like him.

Capcom demanded nothing - that was bitchass faggotass Inafune the conman.

This literal Japanese nigger was doing international money laundering schemes with trash tier western developers that nobody ever heard of or that had never produced a decent game before.

I am legit convinced this conman has an Interpol record on him.

>imagine Trish getting pinned against a gray wall, that's the same color of her fucking boring bitch-ass character who imperonates moms becuase she's literally an unholy wretch with no dignity whatsoever, while at the same time the demon-whore who suckled Mundus' big red tri-balls and had so much piss-stained demon cum splurged all over her hair, it got dyed blond, is being fisted with pizza up her matrix-2000 black fetish pants ripped apart, so hard the term yeast infection gets a new meaning, and with her last whoreish, skanky, breaths she coughs up the crusty, hell-cum out her ps2-octagon mouth, leaving her dark soul unfilled, yet her ass stuffed to the brim

Refer to Play more games.

I mean I'm not inside the guy's head but Itsuno was clearly is speaking as negatively as any Japanese developer would ever speak of an associate's work.

Considering his comments on it includes stuff like 'Ninja Theory had no idea how to do this, so we had to show them" really speaks for itself. People are talking very professional (and even then, backhanded) politeness as meaning ITSUNO ACTUALLY WANTED TO MAKE DmC2 BUT CAPCOM SAID NO AND FORCED HIM TO MAKE DMC5 AND IS ALSO RESPONSIBLE FOR EVERYTHING BAD IN DmC which is just beyond delusional

It did turn out better then expected

El Donte mod was the best thing to happen to DMC

>vaporware

How is it vaporware? If it was, They wouldn't talk about it.

I mean I think it would have won if the series continued to be made taht way instead of it becoming an occasional stink that quickly blows away in the wind when it appears but alright man, I know they'll take what they can get.

DmC Dante’s personality is closer to what a DMC1 Dante but younger personality would look like than DMC3 in some ways. He’a more sarcastic than crazy and takes the mission seriously, like DMC1.

DMC3 made Dante completely crazy (both in good and bad ways), which doesn’t make sense.

Then DMC4 completely ignored DMC1 Dante’s personality and made him act like DMC3 Dante again.

When you add DMC2 Dante to the mix, you realize that every game has Dante act somewhat differently.

DmC fans are desperate for validation and deflecting the blame. It's reached the point where the director, writers and designers are somehow less responsible for decisions than the publisher

Itsuno had to make the most of the mess that Inafune left behind and just like DMC2 had to once again clean up other peoples mess.

The alternative was cancelling the game and writing off millions of dollars that had already been sunk into it.

user doesnt understand how game development works. Inafune went all in with western outsourcing and had wasted millions of dollars on a string of flops.

I actually quite like DmC (gameplay and sound wise at least). There was annoyances such how weapon switching was handled and forget the other weapons exists, the story and character was pretty shit to say the least and how the original version of game forced the blue/red weapon mechanic which made situations when you have fight against blue and red enemies at the same time a pain but it was fun and can be satisfying at times. I think the game would be considered better if it wasn't as seen as a continuation or the next mainline devil may cry. I have played far better action/ hack n slash games in my life but from what I played I had fun. It will never be my favourite devil may cry game (that would be 1) but I liked it

I can't believe people are still having last minute shitposts about DmC after all this time. Not like it matters since DMC is back and 5 is so close to release already. Still can't believe its happening and its so close

The west often thinks the same thing of Japs. Go ask Rebellion or Eidos Montreal how much they think Japs have a clue about making games. Part of it is cultural divide but a good deal is just plain old racism and the Japs are generally more guilty of the latter than the west.

I don't actually blame Itsuno that much for DmC. Inafune was the guy who really was controlling the direction of the production. Everything had to go through him.

OP stop replying to yourself.

As a Devil May Cry fan.... i don't hate DmC but for fuck sake this game shouldn't have been a part of Devil May Cry itself.

She's not naked though and there's no joke about "Whoa she's not wearing anything, isn't that wacky?!" Sexy and nude aren't the same thing and the tone of the two scenes is still entirely different.

? Acting like DMC3 didn't have serious moments? Donte doesn't have any similarity to DMC1. DMC1 Dante was cheeky but he was a straightforward hero. Donte feels like somebody who doesn't like being a Dante character. DMC1 Dante liked fighting his opponents headon and respected them. DmC Donte killed the Succubus by hitting her hand to lose her grip and horrendously die to a fan. Even DMC4 Dante was more fair to his opponents, He even gives his opponents a choice to go back to the demon world like with Berial.

Trish more like Trash AHAHAHAH

I thought DmC was a bit meh, not too bad, interesting enough to finish it. But holy shit, the PR around the game was so awful. Constant articles about fanboy manbabies, Tameem smugly denouncing everyone that had issues with the game, fuck.

>500,000 copies sold in under four months
It's great for an indie game, sure, but 4 months is a long time. The game probably was on a big sale the majority of that time. I don't think it was a resounding success for Microsoft to take notice.

So Dante can't feel sadness inside? He can't hide it by being whacky? The fact that he denied that he was crying tells you all you need. When did Donte cry in DmC?

I swear it's just the pain of admitting those dirty japs made a better game than their glorious western developers.
Not that I want to get into it that much but Feminist Frequency shit on DmC harder than most games, yet for some fucking reason, in this one case journalists sided against her and with the game.

Hey, don’t be so hard on your old man. He probably wanted to but your whore mother needed the childcare money for some trashy shoes.

Dante comes across as depressed in the anime, which takes place after DMC1.
I'm pretty sure he's capable of feeling emotions like grief and loss. Dante probably buries his emotions and isn't keen on opening up about them.

So the PC version already has turbo and lockon?

Bayonetta has an advantage than DMC. Arial combos isn't that overpowered. Dodge offset and witch time are fully fleshed out mechanics. Spectacle QTEs and the fact that Platinum are the only people in the industry that has a music as an extremely strong point. They also get more whacky with most games ending in the ridiculous ways like punching the god into the sun. DMC games are subdued in comparison.

It was 2017 awards I think if you want to check. Nolan North also made some cheeky comment about it that other VAs didn’t approve of

Y-yeah, we "won".

Because it isn't about defending the games, it's about acting like they're better than the "gamers" they hate so much. DmC was around the same time that the ME3 fiasco happened and journos were in full "gamers are dead" mode. When they see a "toxic" reaction to a new game, they can't help but smugly comment on how the gamers are wrong about everything. Maybe it's their need to feel relevant, to justify their own existence as hobby writers, by acting like absolutely everything is a major societal problem that needs to be addressed, or maybe they're just writing controversial headlines for easy clicks. Probably both. Probably doesn't help that most of their revenue comes from ad money from major game publishers either.

>DmC was around the same time that the ME3 fiasco happened

Man the good old days when instead of being called sexist every journo-editorial was about gamers being "entitled" for not wanting to be lied to or shit on.

Now I’m wondering if journalists in other fields hate their audience like game journalist do.
But on the subject why even stick to being game journalist at this point? At this point game journalist have zero credibility at all and everyone just gets whatever info they want from a couple youtubers they follow.

The funniest part is that almost none of the other games were actually expected to be bad. Like FFXV, Arkham Asylum, and The Last Guardian were all HOTLY anticipated from what I remember. Sonic Mania had more positive pre-release hype than most other Sonic Games. None of these except Mario + Rabbids had really low expectations to be "Significantly Better Than Expected" but meanwhile DmC is still significantly lower than expectations from anybody with standards about anything

It's almost as if they wanted an article to defend DmC, and the rest of the list were mostly just tenuous filler.

DMC: Devil May Cry
When Ninja Theory's Devil May Cry reboot DmC: Devil May Cry was first revealed in 2010, people were understandably skeptical. It drastically redesigned the look of the frontman Dante, ditching the brash demon hunter's silver hair and red-leather in favor of a modern look and angsty demeanor.

The change in art direction was instantly polarizing, resulting in a devout group of hardcore fans boycotting the game before it even released. Others worried the combat system wouldn't hold up to the high standard of quality set by past entries; Ninja Theory perceived lack of experience being the main culprit. While an early demo helped reassure some fans, expectations nevertheless remained low for others.

However, when DmC eventually released in January 2013, the game was welcomed with positive critical reception and solid sales. At the time GameSpot gave the game an 8/10, and said: "DmC pulls off that unlikely reboot trick of feeling fresh and inviting while still holding onto what made the original series so appealing and so special."

Despite its quality, some fans still rallied against DmC, going as far as petitioning to President Obama to remove the game from store shelves. However, the game continued to receive praise well after its initial release, and it's often cited now as one of the best entries in the franchise. DmC even received further acclaim with its subsequent remaster edition on PS4 and Xbox One. It just goes to show that looks can be deceiving.

his point proven.

It's an average action game that was a downgrade and reboot to the main series and was a complete change of tone developed by a western company and was fiercely defended by journalists and actual shills on top of the developers making fun of the old fanbase for not liking their shit. I forget the name but there was some tripfag that constantly defended the game for a long time before eventually admitting he was a paid shill.

it isn’t, there are new modes, turbo mode, lock on, hardcore mode other changes too

They literally can't. To make a DmC game, you have to actively take resources from the DMC team since NT can't do anything by themselves.
Not to mention they're now owned by microsoft and fuck that.

Fuck. I'm going to sleep. I keep using the wrong words.

He gives explict examples of what they get wrong over and over again though and its almost all core game mechanics.

You were never part of us loser, kill yourself you miserable shitposting faggot fishing for yous. Your life is a never ending trainwreck of failure, might as well end it now and save the world the trouble of skimming through your trite bullshit.

Why do they defend a game where the botox bimbo calls herself someone's whore and sniper abortions? Is it because of the #OccupyWallsttreet
activism and Bill 'O Reilly boss fight? Is that it?

GET THAT SCOTTISH COCKSUCKER

They used the assets to make it into Hellblade instead

I bet metroid other m is also in that list.

No they didn't, hellblade was a separate project

Itsuno was pulled from Dragon's Dogma's development cause DmC's combat was just too fucking bad. Itsuno was literally pulled from his dream game for Tameem's ineptitude, while all the while Tameem was doing the best he could to drag the dmc franchise through the dirt with copious amounts of shittalking and mudslinging of previous dmc titles, which were itsuno's works, the guy that came to help him out of the fucking pit he dug himself in.

Whatever you want in your headcanon

I think it's because they just enjoy being contrarian and going against whatever "gamers" enjoy, but also maybe because DMC specifically is like anathema to game journalists. I mean the people who produce masterful gameplay like this probably wouldn't be the type to appreciate a highly technical action game that isn't afraid to give you a fat D rank if you suck at it, so the reboot being tremendously easier than the original games, hated by the fans, and developed by a western studio to purge any unclean Japanese-y influence makes it like a magnet for these people

Hope cuckcom will let Itsuno go for Dragon's Dogma 2.

>what if we redesign one of the most beloved protagonists to be an edgy douche and then imply whoever likes the old design better is gay lol

When he asked if he could do dmc5 or DD2 capcom left it up to him, so assuming dmc does well they'll likely let him do whichever he wants. Nigga deserves it, has to be one of the best devs in the industry.

Its about time itsuno got funding and dev time. The poor guy was always working in horrible constraints

>But on the subject why even stick to being game journalist at this point?
Easy one.
They could not hack it as political writers. Take a look at thge backgrounds of these jernos. They all wanted to write for New York Times and other big newspapers.
So they are stuck writing about video games, a medium they hate and want to subvert. Mostly because they fail at being a big shot.
All their shots at us, should be looked at as a big "i have failed at getting the job i wanted".

user, the demo was so bad that Capcom literally had to send the DMC4 team to NT to fix it

What confuses me most about this is the game has a lot the press usually moans about.

All the women in the games are just damsels in distress or plot devices killed for a mans motivation. We see Virgil's sniper abortion and none of them ever seem to mention it. Dante is very much meant to be a 2cool4school self insert, you could argue that about the original Dante but here it just comes off a bit more pathetic. Wouldn't you like to say fuck and do a load of hookers? Virgil is a elite fedora wearing hacker with a katana, like isn't that a stereotype they make fun of people for? Just seems like their eyes glazed other cause evil toxic DMC fans.

So DMC5 is gonna do everything DmC did, but better...of course we've won.

Reminder that ninja theory disrespects the creators of a well established character by just shitting all over them in terms of writing just to show that they are so much more creative and better than those lame old devs of the past making them look like the vidya equivalent of Roland Emmerich.

Another insane rambling of an user that tries to write outside of his comfort hiveminde zone, at least try to use some punctuation

Does anyone have the quote about when some Capcom guys went to look at the designs? The one where a monster had arm blades, so they asked oh what moves does he use them for and they were like oh no he just punches people.

The bosses were just sad

I liked the game how bout that
Id say dmc3>dmc4=DmC if you ignore the retarded cringey characters of DmC

>first level of the game
>get guns
>boss is immune to guns
Good game.

They're more or less right. MGR is fun and serviceable, but it's carried by non-gameplay elements. The combat is not very complex, it doesn't offer as much replayability as better games in the genre despite being shorter than most of them, and enemy variety is pretty weak.

The best western action game and it's still terrible.

DmC is unironically good though. I'm only getting DMC5 because it's alot more like DmC than DMC1-4

>and it's often cited now as one of the best entries in the franchise
I mean I guess so if there's only five games in the series until next week and it's in the top 4.

Capcom will never ever see DmC as a success, it was a disaster from beginning to end.
Now compare DmC with DMC5, the amount of love from fans, the amount of love for itsuno, itsuno just got promoted to the status of star developer inside Capcom now, mattwalker as well being in touch with the community like never before.
No matter what journos say, Capcom wants the Goodwill(money) of fans, DmC will never achieve the same level of hype.

I thought we were over the whole "DmC is a good game! It's the gamers that are wrong!" episode.
Fucks sake.

Since then the fanbase on Yea Forums has increased in hostility tenfold toward anyone and everyone who they see as competition, with most people who shitpost in these threads admitting to never playing the games at all and just spout CUHRAYZEE memes because they're literally children

I hate the game as much as everyone else but I dont understand why people react so badly at the "baby killing" scene, that was the plan from the start, right? Phineas says that whore is pregnant and Dante and Vergil decide to kill it in order to weaken Mundus, we discover that the "baby" is a demonic monstrosity just like everything evil we see in the franchise and fucking destroy its ass in a boss fight, things get out of hand and it becomes a bargain chip instead of the trump card against Mundus, Vergil does the right thing by killing two birds with one stone(or better said, two demons with one shot), and suddenly everyone loses their minds, both in the game and outside of it. It is decided like 3-4 before it happens hours that the baby HAS to be killed, why was anyone surprised when it actually happened?

Ninja Theory's idea of changing it up was not Capcom it's fault so don't try to blame the publisher for that miserable excuse of a reboot when the studio had full control over the design process.

Looks like someone forgot Project Crazy

By taking an already existing fast fluid system from prior games and slowing it down.

Thats it, I dont think anyone believes they actually look alike, the only reason people(and me) got confused during the trailer is because up till then, Donte was the only charachter with short hair, then it made immediatly obvious that there were no similarities.

Capcom could have AT ANY POINT in the design process (they apparently according to this thread sent people over anyway) said "hold on, this is too far don't be a faggot" but they didn't and marketed the game as normal.
>But muh chinks not wanting to offend people but criticising people behind their backs culture

While not as fleshed out combat as in DMC4 it was still a very good game. You people crying about lore memes and easy S ranks can go suck a dick.

Arent most of Dante's and Vergil's moves just what already existed in prior games, but this time made by NT? Even then its Devil May Cry, they had to take what already existed and develop it their own way, this is true for all franchises.

It doesn't help that DMC4SE only got a digital release compared to Dmc DE.

So when it comes to DmC, Yea Forums is willing to act like sjw's with "muh feelings" matters more than facts?
Gotcha

He's baiting mate

>You people crying about lore memes and easy S ranks can go suck a dick.
I admit that its a good game(7/10) now that DE exists but those critics are 100% fair, dmc is all about style and there is no point in playing the game good when you can reach SSS with 2-3 combos(or one if you use Arbiter and the shurikens), and even if you play the game like shit, NT gives you Lost Souls so that no matter how shit you are, you still get rewarded at the end of the level, because you were able to find collectibles.

Go away Tameem, Project Crazy defeated you so badly you had to sell out to MS, and now DMCV will outsell DmC by triple.

shit, I take it back, I completely forgot about the OP and was just thinking of the thread's conversation

I honestly apologize, OP really was stirring shit up and DmCfags (if you really aren't just trying to shitpost and genuinelly like DmC) are justified to get in here and defend their game

Attached: dmc4.jpg (2724x764, 242K)

Reaching SSS isnt exactly difficult in other DMC games and they have a lot of bullshit op moves too and most combos are just jump cancel/enemy step spam. What I like about these games it he freedom the game gives you. Not some hurr its so hard im chasing high score durr. Good example is how I played all the Souls games and I like them but for the exploration part - the combat is god awful and leaves no room for any kind of experimentation.

Depends on how much they trusted TN maybe Capcom where not in touch with the trends in american media and thought that the devs in that studio where doing a good job or the devs die not show the Capcom representative the really stupid stuff and just pretended that was it just an americanized version of DMC and not the edgelord fanfic that they got in the end.

It's so hard to hit a good middle ground, where you're not overleveled and 2shotting everything, or underleveled and having to smash away at it for 20 minutes to make any progress.

Not even saying it should be done away with, just tighten the numbers up a bit, make it a smoother curve.

DMC4 sold even more in the meantime. Not to mention that HD collection got ported to next gen consoles as well as Steam, further boosting the numbers.

And most importantly DMC4:SE released and outsold DmC:DE by a literal hundreds of thousands.
Last DmC:DE sales were about 78k split on all platforms while DMC4:SE sold around 500k ON PC ALONE LMAO DUDE GET FUCKED

guys I preordered DmC

>Bundle all games except DmC
>Hah, look it sold better
cope

>Still sold more than all the others
1) That's wrong
2) You're comparing a next-gen title with bigger install base, released on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC to old games sold only on the PS2
3) Counting re-releases is definitely fair game since even Capcom prefers that due to longevity of Special Editions
4) Get fucking fucked

>B-but muh initial sales
cope more

DMC1, 2 and 3 were ps2 exclusive when they came out. You cant count the pc port of 3 because that was shit.

Nice made up numbers, see

DESTROYED

>DMC4 Special edition: 0.2 mil sales
B-BUT I THOUGHT WE WERE WINNING Yea ForumsROS?!?!

>PS2 games release and sell amazingly considering the size of the team, budget and a single platform sales
>make more games in the series
>DmC flops hard on launch, failing to meet even 50% of what Capcom initially wanted
>flops and the company scraps the reboot series
You lost buddy. What are you trying to do here?

>It couldnt even outsell DMC2

Still sold better even though DmC was in numerous humble bundles. Cope.

no it didn't. capcom separates the titles and rereleases, even some straight ports by sales. DmC sold even less than the absolute worst game in the series.
they also had to adjust their sales forecast ~3 times within months of the release.

Hey bro steamspy.com/app/329050
Keep in mind that Steamspy can't track sales days due to increased traffic and private profiles. Meaning it possibly sold even more than that.

And here are the physical only (meaning no PSN) sales for PS4
vgchartz.com/db/game.php?id=85495
100k
You can halve that for Xbone meaning 150k in total. And again, that's only the physical copies.

no, but other people can be.
someone recorded a discord reaction of the initial reveal. there was literally someone shitting on the trailer and then asking "wait was that kyrie?"

WE TRY TO JUSTIFY
ALL THE THINGS THAT HAVE OCCURRED

I know. That's why I said that it sold more on PC alone than DE did on both platforms.
Since PSN is a locked down piece of shit we can't track its numbers so I just gave the physical sales for PS4. Which are still good. Digital sales are probably double that.

>it released on 4 other platforms.
Four? It just released on PC, Xbone and PS4. I'm just talking about SE here.

I cant get mad at devil may cry fans, it's the schools' and parents' fault

there was a longer version somewhere where they tried talking through it more.

reminder NT acted like a pack of edgy children with ADHD, while Crapcom tried to steer them into the right direction, when developing DmC

This guy youtube.com/watch?v=gbNWb-vmlB4 @ 7:55 explained it well while also shitting on NRS's horrible, horrible animations.

Does anyone have a webm where it compares DMC4:SE's Vergil and DmC's Vorgin's Rapid Slash? It perfectly demonstrates the differences in weight of animations.

They'll go on a huge manhunt about how Kamitani is a pedophile for drawing big-titted women or how the Last Night dev should be flayed alive for siding with an internet hashtag and they'll signal about condeming misogyny, until a game where a woman calls herself a whore/a woman has rape as a backstory/a woman gets sniper abortioned and referred to as 'wet chunks'/etc comes along and they can't admit to any of the game's problematic elements while defending it from the evil gamers

Blue Donte and Red Donte

You have to admit though, that was a good shot.

DONTE'S COAT IS INSIDE OUT HOLY SHIT THIS IS RETARDED

Because the whole design for the game is being different for the sake of being different. Vergil likes guns now. Dante smokes and has casual sex. Why? Because it's the opposite of what the originals were.

I kind of wish Itsuno never came in to fix the game so we could see what sort of shitshow NT would have made on their own. Would have been way harder for journos to defend. Even the DE was just doing what fans told them should have been done.

All Itsuno's supervising did was turn the game from a 5/10 into a 7/10 and validate all the people who used his presence and sugarcoated statements as a seal of quality, e.g. the dogbrains in this thread posting interview screencaps with his translated PRspeak

They also removed Vergil's fedora.

Not even trying anymore. But here, a free (you).

>it's actually pretty good
But not really. It still has color coded enemies with no stun lock, it still has a dedicated dodge button, it still has a baby mode devil trigger that murders the pace, it still has horrible aerial mechanics, it still has no taunts, it still has no directional attacks and the lock-on they added is not even working properly and is just there so they can say on the box that they've added it, the weapons still feel flaccid, the guns are still shooting wet farts, the bosses all suck massive donkey dicks without exceptions, the "platforming" is still braindead and time-wasting, the enemy variety is still shit especially in Vorgin's DLC, the level design is still just a straight corridor, the secret missions are still bland etc.

It's just a horrible waste. If you're morbidly curious about the game then don't buy it on the PS4. Don't give them a cent for this trash. Just pirate the PC version and change the .ini so you can play it on 60FPS which is the only not shit addition Definitive Edition had. And also you can properly mod the color coded enemies.

Yes. They fixed a lot of shit and added bunch of stuff that should’ve been in the original release. Especially with Must Style.

They were supervising it. Coding and animating was still done by NT. Story additions were handled by NT too. Same with Vorgin's DLC.

It's weird because everything you said is true, but I played it recently and I'd be lying if I said I didn't have fun. Doing dumb shit with easy infinite airtime and setting up enemies for huge damage moves is fun. Kind of like using Super Dante on easy in the real series. It's not a challenge but it's still neat to see what kind of shit you can pull off. But man, everything about that game's design and aesthetic is so bad. Every character looks so gross. Not even the controversial shit is really that shocking or interesting, it all falls flat. And some of the attack animations and yells, just... what were they thinking?

I don't think no one is denying DmC had some good ideas in it (Which is why they made their way to 5) But DmC is still an average action game with a horrible story and characters that seems like they were written by your average degenerate edgelord to the point where it comes off as comical than cool.

Debatable. As far as we know "he died under uncertain circumstances".

Who know! Maybe he became his Devil Arm later on and only unlocks his true power to anyone with his blood.

Are they still pretending the ME3 ending was good?

>it's better than 2
And 1 & 4.

Just saiyan it's a meme regardless of what anyone thinks about NT. Like there's enough shit to criticise them for without making things up about how Itsuno personally stepped down from his tower to make the DE and Vorgin's Downfall without Tameme

1 and 4 don't make me want to vomit when I play them.

And hell, even 2 at least had 60 FPS and bloody palace on launch.

DMC0?

>did this happen in the first week it released before anyone could know how much of a turd it was?
You pretty much answered your own question

>DmC better than 1 and 4.
>DmC better than 1
Lol no.

Sparda died but no one knows where, when and how it happend.
If I were a betting men I would say that they wanted to jump on the classic DmC fanbase hate bandwagon for easy clicks and have now decided now that DmC 5 is coming out that this dead horse is not yet beaten enough and could bring them more hate clicks.

Died of old age after 2000+ years of defeating mundus and sealing the tower in DMC3 with his own devil arm.

Mundus was so fucking scared of sparda that he waited until sparda died of old age cause he was scared that sparda could have just summon the fucking force edge instantly and with the amulets with his sons that he can take, can regain his demonic power to kick mundus ass again.

thanks

It's a strictly okay hack and slash game with a shitty story that took itself way too goddamn seriously and desperately wanted to be a social commentary. It's not the worst thing in the world, probably not even the worst game of its year, but it has to be compared to some of the greatest hack and slash games ever made. It was the contempt for the audience from its developer and the parasitic journalists surrounding the carcass of the DMC series that made it worthy of the shit it received.

He just vanished

But Kamiya said he died wanting to see his family one last time

DMC1 was a hit. of course fans are gonna rush down and get one, expecting they'll improve on the first.

it's really no different than how it is now with pre-orders; even with all signs showing the game will be a massive flop (FO76), or how the dev has a history of controversially shitty practice (EA), people will flock to them, money in hand, hoping that maybe they'll get it right this time.

DmC is a rock solid video game with a lot going for it. It's not my fault that DMC as an actual franchise is below mediocre.
