I get that people hate the reboot but why are there actually people who unironically try to claim DMC 2 is better than DmC: Devil May Cry? Like, there's no fucking way in hell you can objectively say 2 is a better game, even if you hate the changes the reboot made. Saying 2 is a better game is like saying a piece of shit tastes better than chicken soup that's too spicy just because you hate the chef that made it.
And no, hating Tameem is not a reason to hate DmC.
They're both shit games, but DmC is a shit game which went out of its way to disrespect the franchise it spawned from, which makes it immeasurably worse. DMC2 is just a bit crap compared to the other installments in the series.

>DMC2 is just a bit crap >just a bit crap
It was so bad super best friends didn't even do a full playthrough of it, that's how shit it was, even the reboot actually got a full playthrough from them
Alexander Young
dmc 2 dante is sexier than dino so dmc 2 wins
Nicholas Parker
>try to claim DMC 2 is better than DmC: Devil May Cry
because DMC2 didn't try to be intentionally offensive to DMC fans, unlike DmC which seemed like it had scenes just to spite DMC fans.
Parker Sanchez
still doesn't make it a worse game, it had objectively better gameplay closer to dmc games than whatever 2 was, 2 was literally a third person shooter with dante slapped in
Samuel Sullivan
It all comes down to what has each game done for the series. DMC2 actually added something to the series of substance while DmC didn't do shit. DMC2 added multi aim with the guns. DmC added people speaking during the style meter. How fucking revolutionary.
Isaiah King
Bro let’s players not playing the game isn’t an argument but I’m not disagreeing with you. The definitive edition of DmC is pretty solid gameplay wise. It just shits the bed at literally everything else. DMC2 is just fucking awful
Michael Thomas
literally not an argument.
Christopher Taylor
Intent is the difference, 2 is shit because it was slapped together in 4 months, DmC is shit because they wanted to spite the fanbase.
Nathan Thompson
DMC2 is just incredibly tedious. All bosses didn't like you getting close to them and Guns did ridiculous damage.
Luis Watson
DMC2 didn't want to turn out the way it did, it just didn't have the time and budget DmC was completely intentional, so for some DmC seems like a game to be more offended by But you are right, DmC as a game is better than DMC2
DmC also added slow mo kill cams, doppelganger for Vergil and that cool deflect animation Vergil uses when you shoot at him
also the dark urban setting
Zachary Gonzalez
It's like comparing dogshit to horseshit, who the fuck cares, neither is worthwhile.
Colton Turner
4 months holy fuck, its better than I thought then
Robert Hall
So dumb shit nobody asked for or noticed.
Josiah Howard
DMC fans have no desire to appreciate anything about DmC. It's more enjoyable than 2, but they'll never admit that.
Ryan Martin
I still don't get the marketing direction for DmC. Who thought it was a good idea to outright insult the fanbase like that while making a reboot?
Joseph Allen
>chicken soup >spicy
What the fuck is wrong with your taste
Luke Nguyen
mental illness.
Henry Wood
not him, but I love making any savory food spicy.
Dominic Anderson
>hating Tameem is not a reason to hate DmC Except it absolutely is. Self-inserting should never be a thing, ever. That game is still not as bad as DMC2 though.
I'd argue dmc 2 is better because dante had a cool outfit and good animations, also Lucia>>>>>>>Kat
Caleb Bailey
>Never had Korean soups. What a pleb.
William Stewart
>It was so bad super best friends didn't even do a full playthrough of it How the fuck is that a metric for quality and why are you retarded enough to know and mention it?
Gavin Cruz
I highly doubt they "wanted" to spite the fan base. Sure, a few bad jokes and quips were thrown in that were attempts at references but that's fucking retarded
>"I don't care what fans think" Tameem >"Not in a million years" Fuck off idiot.
Luke Carter
Stated after the game was widely considered awful. I find it hard to believe the game was built on that idea.
Jose Cruz
Especially considering it was said by a petty prick who can't admit when he's wrong.
Matthew Rodriguez
>DmC also added slow mo kill cams Nothing of value >doppelganger for Vergi Should've made another Agni and Rudra (or at least something similar) boss instead >also the dark urban setting DmC doesn't have """dark""" urban settings And they don't resemble each other at all
Dominic Perry
dmc2 is actually challenging on the hardest difficulty, has bosses that feel like they belong in a DMC game instead of god of war or zelda, runs at 60 FPS and has a lock on button
DmC has none of these things
Jaxon Johnson
>also the dark urban setting this is something that originated in DMC2 you fucking brainlet, the entire game is demon filled Rio de Janeiro and the visuals in DMC5 are very similiar (and not at all like DmC's super colorful red and blue contrast everywhere)
Landon Long
The last scene of the credits is the guy who plays Dante giving the finger to the audience.
Jaxon Mitchell
I think that kind of spiraled out of control after the initial frosty reception.
Elijah Wright
Overall DmC is a better game but almost killed the series. DMC2 is hot garbage but at least it introduced shit that 3 took and made god-tier. The only thing DmC brought to the table were some minor aesthetic touches.
Benjamin Hernandez
>but they'll never admit that. DMC fan here, I had more fun in DmC (the definitive edition) than DMC2 I even beat it in Dante Must Die, are you happy now? And let's be honest here DmC didn't bring alot of good things, but the DE did (must style)
Eli Hernandez
There's an argument to be made that base DmC is worse, DE is much better though.
DMC2 gave us the bloody palace, if nothing else
Jason Garcia
>dmc2 is actually challenging on the hardest difficulty, has bosses that feel like they belong in a DMC game
I call bullshit, I doubt dmd mode would make that much difference in dmc 2
play it yourself and find out. the game is still easy to exploit but the enemies get a lot more aggressive on DMD and actually put up a bit of a fight, especially given how much recovery most stuff has
Gabriel Allen

Michael Walker
DMC 2 is more than just BIT crap I'm afraid, but I agree with you. DMC 2 has good moments/aspects which surpass DmC by far.
DMC2 was shit but introduced several great new ideas and mechanics to the franchise, many of which still appear today. DmC actively regressed in almost everything except visuals of a specific manner.
