He's ridiculous where he's supposed to be serious, and it's magnetic.
>fun-loving IDGAF devil hunter vs. moody, rage-fueled edgelord
Though for what it's worth I thought DmC was an okay game.
have you ever liked hanging around that edgy guy at school?
QUE TE JODAN

Doesn't take himself seriously. Doesn't brood as much. Doesn't swear like a sailor. Basically reacts to his world in a light-hearted, non-bitter way, most of the time. The times were he doesn't are rare. Donte's the inverse; is a baseline of anger, self-seriousness and bitterness, with the odd light hearted moment.
Flock off
Despite all of the crazy shit he does and gets himself into, Dante is a pretty chill and down-to-earth guy. He reads nudie magazines, eats pizza, is constantly down on his luck when it comes to debt, etc...
It makes him likable and relatable in a way, not to mention how his half-human side adds onto that aspect as well. Donte is a half-demon, half-angel hybrid that’s just unpleasant to be around and see in action.
Well, I honestly don't like DMC4 Dante. He's not very interesting or charismatic. In 3 he can be pretty annoying but as you progress you get the very strong feeling that that's a mask. His general behaviour is one that reflects ease. In those he IS pretty arrogant but DMC1 he is the personification of confidence and that makes a world of difference. He is a stereotypical good guy (his heinous ways make me sick. Bro... it's the devil) with the heart of gold and in the others he is someone who you'd find puts you at ease.
Donte, though... Well, he is just juvenile. Yeah, he's really a good person on the inside but his moment to moment presence doesn't make up for how insufferably obnoxious he can get. I know the whole 'baby chunks: priceless' thing was him intentionally being a cunt to get Mundus' skin but that's how he generally feels. It's a weird mix of overly edgy with childish power fantasy demeanour. He is what a 12 year old who reads overly dark comics thinks is cool.
Also, there are layers to this whole twin thing, more than you realize:
youtube.com
Dante is not king douche of the universe.
Plus with Donte, the devs were forcing it down our throats on how "cool" and "badass" Donte would be.
One of the understated things that sets Dante apart from Donte, or many 'crazy' action protags for that matter, is his capability for mercy. For the demons he deems noble enough, he is willing to let them simply leave (Berial), or urges to stop fighting (Griffon), or is saddened by their death even if they were hostile (King Cerberus clear art, V's pets).
It's something I wish Bayonetta would show more of desu, she comes across as so cold and aloof compared to Dante, even with all the attempts to humanize her (which often fall back on tired motherly plotlines or laughable family drama).
It's very telling that at the end of the Dante/Bayo Death Battle, many complained that Dante would never execute someone like that. Could we say the same about characters like Kratos, Hayabusa, Bayo, or even MGR Raiden?

Dante loves his job and is having just as much fun with cuhrazyyy demon slaying as the player is
Donte is a brooding miserable fuck whining about how unfair it is to be born with superpowers in a game where you're supposed to do constant off the wall action. The dissonance is annoying and you want him to shut the fuck up and Stinger people into walls

Right on the money. Dante is likable because he's fun to play as. Donte is fucking miserable to play as.
Donte is a boring emo faget tryhard
Dante is your not-rapey uncle.
Donte is your snotty younger brother.
My theory is that from the first DmC trailer donte's character was just a moody brooding emo but they obviously got a lot of backlash so panicked and shoe horned in a bunch of quips for him to say throughout the game which come off as so obviously half baked. This means he feels like two characters crammed in one not working together
Simple. Dante is a goofy fun character in a serious world while Donte is an angsty edgy edgelord in a world that's already trying way too hard to be serious.
you're asking a question that's already been answered.
it's a simple matter of Max Payne 1 v. Max Payne 3
Doesn't take himself seriously. Donte is too try hard.
left is reddit right is Yea Forums
Dante is cool in a childish but very charming and endearing way.
Donte feels like he was made for people who thought old Dante was stupid and for kids. He is way more mean and foul in his behavior. Clearly trying to invoke a sort of rebellious anarchist attitude. But it just ends up backfiring, because he comes off as one of those annoying teenagers who thinks they know what "true cool" is.
Basically
Dante is for kids and adults
Donte is for teenagers who think they are adults
Does this answer your question?
youtu.be
Even Donte's battle sounds felt miserable. Dante is all like bang bang or woo woo and Donte is just screaming or groaning.
Donte is trying his hardest to be cool and comes off as cringe. Dante just IS cool.
Dante's like a child fully enjoying his superpowers while being the most light-hearted character in an otherwise very dark universe without coming across as a total idiot because of how competent he is.
I think there is something to this.
While I know there were a lot of DMC fans in the NT staff and there was the occasional implication that there was a reverence for it you also got a very clear sense that there was an animosity towards it, resentment, even. Not just from the game itself but from the general behaviour the staff showed outside of development when talking about it.
Not just here where they are saying that their Dante should be the edgiest, angriest character in recent year and pretty much said 'better than being similar to the worst batman movie ever' but the whole cowboy thing was NOT implying that Dante looked like a cowboy because Brokeback is not the most famous western in the world (that would be the Good the Bad and the Ugly) it is the most famous gay movie in the world. That whole thing was basically them saying 'look at this ridiculous shit. This is what those games were. Stupid, cringy shit. The most embarrassing garbage Tokyo has ever produced. Not us. We're the cool ones. We're punk, we are stylish, we are the Tyler Durden to their gay cowboy.'
Why does dante have such small head in this picture
Dmc4 had really weird proportions in general
cope
Donte is actually how cool people are irl. This triggers weebs because their self insert who used to be a quirky chad version of them was replaced by an actual jock and it gave them ptsd from highschool, they seethe about it to this day
That presentation aged badly for a number of reasons, biggest one might be that the guy on the right looks like Dylan Roof.
Dante didn't become likeable until DMC3. Donte>DMC1& DMC2 Dante.
Where does he whine about his powers in the game?
YEEEEEAAAAH
Basically. His cold demeanor is more realistic than Dante's which is the opposite of how a person would be in a situation like his.
Dante is a badass without really trying, but 3 and 4 flanderized him entirely, he's like a completely different character in those games.
How is 3 a flanderized version of Dante when it’s a prequel
You're an even bigger shut in than the weebs if you think that's how "jocks" behave in real life. For one thing any jock worth his salt can tell a goddamn joke. That prom date line was shameful.
>RAW
>ANARCHY MAKES SENSE
>I NEED TO TOUCH MY HEART TO SEE IF I’M STILL HUMAN
why is dante's head so small?
4 had terrible designs across the board, easily the weakest part of the game

Are you sure about that?

jocks irl say anything and people around them find it funny, girls turning into giggling messes as soon as they walk in the room

He looks like edgy child.
>Calls other people out of touch when he is literally just referencing 90s sitcom stereotypes
I'm not saying Johnny Depp Dante was better, but the end result pales to the rest of the series. Not just Dante, but everything about DMC4's aesthetics suck.
How did this image not immediately get their funding retracted? It's fucking embarrassing
I don’t remember. This back when they tried to cancel Reuben for saying that people need to not hate each other, and that MeToo and BLM can be a bit too extreme sometimes.
I'd say the Angelo enemies were pretty cool, other than that I agree.
The same way this didn’t get their funding retracted.
White NT were a bunch of angsty faggots, the stark contrast in designs weren't their initial goal. They were very close in sticking to the original designs with a bit of a western take. Inafune kept pushing more and more towards a unique and totally different concept.
He looks more like this.
Donte is the character Dante is parodying
>Donte is the character Dante is parodying
Deep.
>fucking whores
>and slapping a rape survivors ass
Keep him
Yea Forums hates donte because deep down he reminds them of themselves
Yea Forums likes dante because they believe they are like him
Dante and Donte is the difference between effortlessly cool and trying way too hard to be cool. Dante has his own unique style, is generally pretty relaxed, he's clean and conventionally attractive, and you can tell he's an overall good dude. Donte's entire style and demeanor is a ripoff of 90's antiheros complete with grungy punk-rock ensemble, he's crass and aggressive, he's unkempt, and he comes across as the kind of person whose entire persona revolves around ironic insults. Dante doesn't give a fuck, Donte really wants you to know he doesn't give a fuck.
Because they talked a good game. I'm guessing here but they probably convinced the Capcom that these were very appealing to a western audience. You can always just mock the original and tall them that this is why DMC4 will never sell above 5 million, because to the west it is some silly shit, not like ours, this is what we like in the west. The fastest way to get someone to doubt their work is to mock it. You mock the original and start bringing up your contrast so as to put more faith in theirs than yours.
That’s nothing
It being a prequel doesn't matter. It came out after two other games. Kamiya helped design Dante in 3 and pushed to have the whackiness exaggerated. I wonder if it was a reaction to his team not being able to make a sequel.
>Nero fights Dante for the first time
>"What's the point of packing a sword like that if you aren't even gonna use it?"
>Dante says nothing but casuals mimics Nero's sword rev to mock him
If that were Donte he'd probably just flip him off
See the difference? One is trying too hard to be a "badass", while the other does it without even trying
After attempting to mercilessly murder his brother in cold blood, and the only reason he didn’t kill him was said rape survivor.
Judging by Kamiya's later productions like Bayonetta I think he always wanted Dante like in 3 and 4, he just couldn't realize it like that because of the game's development history and because they didn't have the experience with that kind of stuff yet. Reuben and Dan also only joined in 3 and that's where the cuhrayze stuff really took off.
>ur a faget
Almost Shakespearean.
Donte is the edgelord that reminds a lot of people how their younger selves used to think.
There's a druid there too if you brighten your screen.
>Donte is actually how cool people are irl

That is the smallest man I've ever seen floating 4 feet 3 inches above the ground.
Hee hehe hahahaha.
That is so much this intro I can't believe it's a coincidence:
youtube.com
Dante was created by a 10 year old, donte was created by a 13 year old.
Tameem?
>Donte is actually how cool people are irl.
Dude, I was one of the cool kids in high school and kids like Donte were not cool. It's even less cool as you become an adult.
Now i'm imagining Tameem subtly egging concept and design artist to make the character look like him.
>See drood if you brighten screen
>See it anyways
fuck, time to adjust that monitor
I get that they were going for a "Rage against the Machine" theme. But they forgot to discount the self-righteous teenage punk cringe.
Antifa Donte huh.
Jobber to the police.
It's barely visible for me, but I keep my screen dark because I have light sensitivity. It might just be me.
Don’t forget Spardo
Is there a good character example for the crass, punk antihero you are talking about?
This image is literally forty times gayer than anything in DMC prior. How the fuck did Tameem not see that?
There's another DMC Thread going on right now that's getting pretty gay. This thread has now out gayed them because you posted this, and MoonX was posted in that thread.
leather club's two blocks down
They're trying to get the gayer thread title back, but it just can't beat Spardo BDSM.

>Kamiya said that he saw Dante as "a character that you would want to go out drinking with", someone who was not a show-off but would instead "pull some ridiculous, mischievous joke" to endear people to him
>someone who was not a show-off
It's possible Dante would've become what he is now anyway since Kamiya still had some input with 3, but I don't know. I think when he learned another team was developing 2 it might've messed with his head a bit.
>When one follower wrote "I miss the Dante you made," Kamiya replied with: "I miss him too." When another told Kamiya "It's sad to see what you started turn this way," Kamiya said: "I've been sad since Dante left me."
This was after Donte in DmC but still shows a bit how he feels
>This was after Donte in DmC but still shows a bit how he feels
Yeah it shows that he hates DmC Donte. Bayonetta is more cartoonish than even DMC4 Donte so I don't think he really dislikes Itsuno's vision.
I'm not saying he dislikes Dante in the later games. Like I said, he had input and wanted him to become whackier. I just wonder if Dante would've developed in the same way if he had continued to lead development of the sequels.
Go to bed Tameem.
Why is the sword teen size too?
I doubt it'd change much, look at the intro, going into space in the Mundus 1 fight which is more over the top than anything in 3 to 5, or even Dante saying that Devil May Cry's a rocking line.
>going into space in the Mundus 1 fight
That's the game being over the top, not Dante showing off.
>or even Dante saying that Devil May Cry's a rocking line.
That is pretty silly, but it only happens if you beat the game on DMD.
>who will take his place
He’s fucking brain dead
not talking himself too seriously, being more pleasant and charismatic, being better written
So in this instance, Reddit is better?
Dude, he's not that tall, he's just floating. He's a 2½ foot tall dude floating 4 feet in the air. Donte is actually very tiny, it's all camera tricks, like with the Hobbits.
>top of the head to waist is only one foot
lmao
How the fuck do I get a save file with all the upgrades unlocked for Donte and Vergin? I don't want to play through the whole game to try out bloody palace there

It really makes you think when they had they idea of giving Dante the bringer and Vergil's haircut.

Spansih VA's were really good, the best in the language for a while, because Francisco Franco made film dubbing mandatory I believe.
Well for one, Dante doesn't threaten pregnant women or make fun of dead babies.
One is the playful beer chugging and pizza scarfing dude women love and gamers want to be. The other is that faggot who sat at the back of the classroom making snide "jokes" to disrupt class while wearing "group of the month" shirts women avoided and men beat the fuck up before he became a mass school shooter.
Guess which is which, bitch.
Sorry to break it to you, user.
Priceless
Right back at ya. I'm going off what Bingo said in interviews. He literally uses DMC1 Dante as a guide on how he writes Dante in scenario's.
did you miss the part where he's so upset at being born a badass he rips open his own chest "just to see if he has a heart"
It's so fucking lame
How would Joel Schumacher's DMC turn out?
What the fuck was wrong with Tameen?
>"Now how should I make Donte a more likable character?"
>"I know! I'll have him threaten to kill the main villain's pregnant wife and make fun of it!"
Oh well he has similar taste in cargo pants.
You don't get it. It's Shakespearean.
Tameem/NT isn't decent at writing characters that don't act like assholes most of the time. Heavenly Sword tended to have girl of war interact with bad people so that it wasn't a big deal.
He's not an edgy little twat running around screaming "fuck you"
Can we talk about how eerily similar DMC is to this?
>Both were reboots nobody wanted instead of new installments of the original series
>Both attacked fans of the originals just because they didn't like them, with delusional defenders accusing them of being "babymen"
>Both featured themes not in the previous series IE DMC's literal WE LIVE IN A SOCIETY and Fembusters "Women are better than stupid men"
>Both feature utterly hateable MCs
>Both fucked up their respective companies so much, they ended up getting proper sequels to the original series
He wanted to make a character that has flaws, because that's what Tameem associates with humanity. While OG DMC sees humanity as good, DmC sees humanity as a chaotic force.
>they're both 80's movie reboots
Also like Catwoman with Halle Berry. Which was super ironic because Tameen said on an interview it would be more like Batman Begins.
Also the factor that both have braindead defenders still complaining about people not liking them even with the proper sequels coming out.

Lol
Which is a fair assessment
And honestly, I didn’t dislike Donte as a character, and that’s part of the reason why. He’s flawed and overly cocky and self-centered and if you were an immortal murder machine that’s probably what you’d be, too. It didn’t make him a bad character.
The problem was, it’s so much less likable than Dante. Basically every problem DmC had, not just in gameplay but in everything (except maybe artstyle) was “it’s not that it’s terribly bad, but it’s worse than the thing you rebooted to make it”
Unapologetic edgy Donte would have been better. Take DmC but even further, until it became a parody of itself instead of playing it straight.
Didn’t work out well for Yaiba NGZ
The fact that Inafune also produced and designed the characters for Yaiba is why I’m convinced Tameem/NT aren’t the reason Donte was the way he was.
Really? I did not know that.

I think they bought into the online hype of people shitting on each other to mean they could appeal to a large customer base by doing the same thing. Turns out it doesn't work. Surprising.

>In a post on the Capcom forums, Capcom’s Senior VP, Christian Svensson, explains what drives these decisions. “Both [DmC Devil May Cry and Lost Planet 3], and some of the prior (like Bionic Commando) were driven by [Keiji] Inafune… now departed,”
I'm not sure why he thought DMC needed to be westernized, and that westernizing just meant turning everyone into a twat. DMC was already a good mix of east and west for the most part. Silent Hill and Earthbound did the same thing, and SH seemed to turn to shit when they tried to westernize it even more too.

Dante is an actual alpha. A happy go lucky dude that can be serious when need be but also funny when it's not serious business time.
Donte is what betas think is alpha. An overly angry faggot that tries to be alpha by being intimidating.
I'd say a better question is what makes Nero likeable compared to Donte?
Probably. Or just damage it enough for it to eventually open up, and then use Donte’s version of Snatch on it to rip the dead Angel that’s powering it out.
They are both pretty annoying and shitty protags

A hint of irony and the attitude.
Dante is clearly a dork. He knows he's a dork. He does cool things, but he's also acting like an idiot that doesn't care that he looks like one; Wahoo, haha so crazy, etc.
Donte clearly cares a lot about being 'cool' and has that smug, 13-year-old style of unironically trying too hard. He cares what he looks like, how he walks, that he's taken seriously and looks cool, and therefore comes off like a smug asshole on a power trip.
It's a subtle difference, and it just goes to show how lucky we got with Dante. Handled poorly, he just winds up the unlikeable version of Dante we got in DMC2.
his hair looks so fucking awful
He looks like a burn victim
there's a mod to make it more like the DMC4 Nero hair, if you so desire
How does this even work?

Donte was a good character and only otaku would disagree
I was referring to the statue
Objectively speaking there's nothing particularly egregious about Donte or even DmC in general, the main reason most people don't like them is simply because they're not Dante and DMC.
Now, when isolated from that and seen in his own context as his own character, the only thing that is truly unlikeable about Donte is his cringy puns and quips, whenever he shuts the fuck up and just interacts normally with Kat or Vergil he's fine.
Maybe 5-prologue Nero without Breakers or Bringer.

Dante isn't an overcompensating chuunifag whose idea of "cool" is smoking cigarettes, swearing and having casual sex with two-bit strippers.

ironically, Sun Wukong was a bit of a cunt in the original
That’s not ironic, that’s a coincidence.
It's crazy isn't it? It's always the gayest thing in the thread.
I don’t even know how that’s possible, but it is.
There has to a peak, to establish a ceiling.
This guy looks like he is one of those edgy kids who do actually get pussy out of manipulation but then they try to start a punk band fail miserably, work in fast food until they get near 30 then finally OD on painkillers.
How did the right happen anyway?
Capcom thought rebooting DMC and making it more "western" would result in massive sales. They handed it to a British company that never really made a game with a combat system on par with DMC3/4, and so they aimed to sell it with style and marketing. As it turned out, NT/Tameem had some interesting ideas about style and marketing.
DMC4 sold millions, but that wasn’t good enough for Capcom execs like Inafune, who wanted to be doing Call of Duty numbers. So, they asked Ninja Theory to reboot DMC to appeal more to “western audiences” (as if the series wasn’t popular enough overseas already), and the result was this emo faget.
I thought my headcanon of DmC were a good game.
Dante is a character whose aesthetic was tailored to him
Donte is an aesthetic whose character was tailored to him.
was
dante has three rules
-doesn't swear
-doesn't smoke
-doesn't drink
So instead of someone who would be a massive edgelord, you get someone who is charming enough to make some of the worst jokes ever.
Dante doesn't let little things get to him and is classy, but also knows when to get serious and doesn't let his ego get to him. Also a better example would be DMC1 Dante since in 4 he was drunk and his characterization suffered so that Nero could shine.
I tend to think DMC4 Dante is playing up his goofyness to hide his DMC2 sadness, and pretend to be the shitposting Obi-Wan Uncle Nero needs.
You ain’t slick, Tameme.

Seriously, Donte is in a league of his own when it comes to bad grunts and yells. The scene where he gets his DT is hilarious because of it and also makes him look like he's struggling with diarrhea.

>those yells when using the scythe and gauntlet weapons
personality wise
DMC3 Dante > DMC5 Dante > DMC1 Dante = DMC4 Dante > DMC 2 Dante
I think in 3 he hits a perfect balance of goofiness actual depth and character progression, in 5 he's just kind of a tired boomer who cares about nothing besides fighting his brother, in 1 and 4 he's just a total goofball but in different ways
Really makes you appreciate Dante's yells when he does certain attacks, doesn't it?
>Drive! A-one! Two!
>Catch this! Rising Dragon!
>Lightning!
>*Stinger noise*
>I think in 3 he hits a perfect balance of goofiness actual depth and character progression...in 1 and 4 he's just a total goofball but in different ways
I don't think I've seen anyone say Dante in 1 is totally goofy but not in 3. I think 1 did it the best because he is a little goofier in the first half of the game, but after that the seriousness builds up until the end pretty steadily. In 3 Dante is still making some jokes during the serious parts.
Yeah Reuben really knows how to do good voice effects.
>tfw DT'd stinger EEEYEAAAH
Dante usually tries to act cool. He sometimes come off cheesy but he's oblivious to that view that he becomes cool again. Contrary to it, He does drink. This is evidence by the wine bottles in DMC1 and his drinking habits on the anime but he never makes it a focus of his character. He's recently rarely started swearing but he doesn't use it as aimlessly as his DmC counterpart.
Dante has liquor bottles all over his place in 4, and he drinks plenty of times in the anime too.
Love how you can type out EEEEYAAH! And people will instantly hear it inside their heads, even if the thread is unrelated to DMC.
It's such an iconic sound effect.
As bad as DmC's voice effect are, they seem twice as egregious since they're directly compared to Reuben's work.
How the fuck did they ever think they could compete, much less win?
I love how it sounds like he’s having the time of his life during some of the Cavalier attacks.

>Roadkill
>Cuuuuhrayzee!
Don't forget that one laugh he when he does Rainstorm:
>Yeeeaahahaha!
DMC3 was the first game where Dante received any solid characterisation, it introduced his playful and childish side for sure but it also allowed us to see Dante be the most serious he's ever been in the franchise and it has an emotional impact, in 1 even when the drama kicks in it has no emotional impact whatsoever and just ends up being cheesy as fuck
his bruce lee sounds are fucking kino as well
One is a huge goofball that knows when to act serious and proper when the situation calls for it and went to act like a party dude. The other is a brooding edge-lord that spends most of his time cussing.
Its essentially the difference between party rocker and heroin punk (which is never a fun time), and even then Nero does the Punk deal far better.

because he's a ripoff this cancerous piece of shit
Well fundamentally, Dante's just a more positive character than Donte is. He's generally motivated by kindness. He starts out kind of a dick in DMC3 with some pent up issues, but he eventually learns to respect his father and gains and invested interest in keeping humanity safe from impending demon apocalypse.
Donte's more negative. He's defined by his anger and resentment. He's not very heroic. He clearly dislikes people overall. He has no class, nor any amount of respect either for others or for himself. It's hard to find many reasons to really like the guy. The only reason you'd find to root for him is that he's not as bad as the people he's fighting against.
There's actually this one trailer, which I think was released fairly early on, before they settled on his VA. It's not tremendously different from the final game, but Dante's actions paint a subtly different picture of Donte than what we're familiar with now. In it, he was walking through a crowd of people and he sees a little girl about to drink some of that demonic soda and slaps it out of her hands as he passes by. Unlike when he does it to the game from some fat slob, he doesn't crack a half-assed joke. He's still kind of a dick, but that still makes a difference. He then climbs onto some cars and leaps across them almost dancingly. And then he enters a bank and begins fighting some demons, but with a degree of grace and stylishness he rarely shows in the final game. He then meets the boss of the place and delivers a warning, that's he's coming after them, showing a more proactive approach to demonslaying as opposed to his reactive apathy in the final game. And on the surface level, he's not really all that different, but I think the slight differences add a layer of positivity and grace to his character that doesn't exist in the game.
What I'd kinda like to see is a DmC2 that takes place, like, 20 or so years down the line. Donte's much older now and actually matured a bit, and even now he's dealing with the consequences of his actions. He's a wanted fugitive, known to the world as a terrorist. The abrupt, violent takedown of Mundus actually caused more problems for the world than it solved, with economic turmoil and and massive power vacuum that caused a shitload of other demons to come out of the woodwork.
>Ole Guard
It's weird, it's not as annoying in Spanish and the cockiness seams endearing moreso than annoying
Yeah I know the trailer you're talking about youtube.com
And it's true, little details like you've mentioned do make a difference.
>Devil may cry 5
Even the initial trailer is cringe
Why didn't DMC 5 have a part where you kill Donte like with how Godzilla bitch smacked American Godzilla?
The trailer was honestly kinda pretty alright until the end when Donte starts talking.
Who the fuck is that terrible VA kek
Maybe you can replace Empusa's model with Donte's.

>all the replies are Vergil DLC
poor Itsuno.
Why do retards make these threads asking dumbass questions like this? You know why. We know why. What's the fucking purpose of this thread?
He's asking for it by tagging dmc for no reason.
Because people want to talk about it. Check the time code on the OP. This thread's been going one for 12 hours.
not be an asshole, literally all you have to do
NAKED DANTE

Fuck, someone needs to make a toothbrush mod

Nero had great lines in DMC4 to take inspiration from. If they weren't going to follow Dante's excitment, then at least do Nero's.

JYB is a champ
I just got done playing DMC5 and absolutely loved it and I heard that the game took some aspects from the reboot, like the slow-mo finishers and announcers. Is it worth checking out?
JYB is a god when it comes to shouting lines/grunts and not making them sound cringy in the process
all that anime dubbing pays off i suppose
He also has a pretty good Sunlight Yellow Overdrive.
not at all, user
Is DMC2 worth checking out just because DMC3 took aspects from it?
That should answer your question.
not really
It'd take less time to do it right; while it's hilarious they didn't plan for such a situation, why would you even do the fight this way?
>TASTE THE BLOOD
That bad, huh? What’s the gameplay like?
Gameplay is like what The Surge is to Dark Souls, if you get me.
It's an imitation of DMC4 which, whilst holding a certain degree of quality just by nature of emulating something good, it also falls short in almost all aspects relating to it because it's just an imitation made without understanding what actually made the original good.
HEY
YOU
WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?
>You make me sick!
That whole fight was very strange
I want to go out for a drink with this dude.
>slow-mo finishers
>worth checking out
If you have nothing better to do
Johnny's definitely the shining star of the cast because of all the shit his character goes through. Even Dan said Johnny has to work twice as hard because of all the emotions Nero goes through.
I really hope DMC5 gets ported to next-gen so we can get Turbo mode. I want to see the insane shit players can pull off at that kind of speed. V would look really crazy, too.
>that Max-ACT at the end
One of the most satisfying sound effects in vidya.
I just hope when Dante makes it into smash, Donte is an alternate costume.
Part of me was hoping to see Donte in V, but as a jobber human demon hunter who can't catch a break and is constantly in danger. You save him as a collectable across the missions, and the characters have naught but disdain for him.
>wanting donte anywhere near the mainline
Kys fags
If V is shit now then he'll still be shit next gen.
See that's one of the two reasons why I want a Donte costume.
The other is to dab on Playstation All Stars
I don't think he's shit.
Good for you
Dante is a cool papa, Donte is just an anus.
The fuck is your problem?
donte is cool but the half demon half human premise is a lot more cooler than being a nephilim esp when demons treats human as livestock being a nephilim on the other hand just makes you a powerful being compared to angels and demons
You're acting like I care if you like him or not. Not everyone likes your shitty twink.
>It's something I wish Bayonetta would show more of desu, she comes across as so cold and aloof compared to Dante
This is fine, though. Angels are all shitters, only good for demon chow. As for demons, she knows they are all using her for their own ends and will gladly snap up her soul the moment she falters. Madama Butterfly is pretty chill, but even she doesn't really intercede beyond the terms of her pact.
You sure tried to convince me that he is.
I don't know because I did not and will never play dmc. I would rather die than support that shit and I hate anyone who did support it.
k
oh wait sorry, as soon as i posted that i realized you were talking about the reboot
You act like we should care that you don't like him when you really didn't need to reply to either post. You must care.
I wasn't trying to convince anyone with my one sentence you braindead faget. It's well known how shitty he is.
He might care for discussion and don't care for your opinion or twink, because basement dweller needs some form of communication not to go insane.
One of the DB rules is that "thou shall not kill" is ignored. Fuck people are stupid.
You have him there, user.
You responded back to my post saying you like him, like I didn't figure that out already you retarded mong.
Diversion from the main point; five yard penalty.
>ONE-TWO-CUHRAYYYZEE
Get rid of this one and you got a good list. It's a Dante quote and they took out in 5 i think.
>still replying
that was the point stupid fuck.
No, that was my point.
Stop being retarded
This sounds amazing.
It's always been Nero's max-act forward triple slash.
Speaking of things taken out from him in 5 is a little detail i miss; before you do that attack you can hold it and rev. In DMC4 Nero used do a giggle during that as he revved. Sounded like he had a lot of fun fighting and i miss this "haha yeah".
Basado y francoempastillado
I know but the CUHRAYYZEE thing was already Dante's since DMC3.
I kinda wish Capcom went with the Sherlock Holmes angle with Nero instead of hotheaded Dante that swears a lot.
Yeah I like that little giggle he does too, it's a really nice touch.
He's a little punk but not a fag punk because he's got a good heart and a girlfriend.
I really like the church kid vibe they went for, this guy's getting married.
>pulsating grotesque maggot hag that vomits
>"Succubus"
No luck with the ladies tho.....fuck!
It's actually a slug
Reminder that women find this Dante hot as fuck, and the old white-haired one is only popular with faggots. No wonder he's the popular one on Yea Forums.
I think it's more of the opposite. Donte is apparently used in a lot of gay SFM vids, even more than Dante.
>Hey Hey Hey! Come on babes!
I miss that one
Dante gives no fucks and he has the in-game skills to back up his cockiness
>yeAaHhHh
>YyYyooOhh
>eaWaaaaaaah
>AAaaAaaheeaaa

>filename
fuck I laughed
They made a nero one too
I wouldn't be upset if they introduced Donte, el exterminador de demonios into the main universe
I was so disappointed that line didn't come back. It had some of his uncle's vibe and it was delivered perfectly.
>NT tried to pull a whole "Dante is a fag" bullshit
>Donte ended up the second most used character in gay SFM
Karma is a bitch, and I love how the VG "journalists" will still defend DmC to the death
We always talk about the characters and sometimes the awful gameplay but for once can we talk about how shit the cutscenes are. Between the film grain effect, excessive chromatic aberration and FPS stuttering that makes un-modded New Vegas look smooth I wonder how this shit got approved
That's the power of Unreal Engine baby
Because nu-dante reminds me of she's all that. Seriously here's a clip of Dante and Vergil fighting: youtube.com
El dente was actually in the game?
No but it was a good webem to highlight how shit the game looks can you find the second El Donte
he like form a shitty liveaction version but as game
>Orthodonte el exterminador de cavidas in the background
UE3 isn't as much to blames as incompetent developers and last gen consoles are.
Good job
If I wanted to play a DMC game for the first time but not any of the nushit, what would I play?
I WANT TO FUCK KAT! fuck this game tho, its for fagets
BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY, HIS SOUL!

You should start off by not trying so hard to fit in, it makes you look like a turbo faggot.
Once you've got that down just start from the first game you retard
Dante actually does say
>Cuhraaaayzee... ha ha!
in 5, when you do Full Throttle using Cavaliere R.
kek
3
One or Three hell get the collection and play both skip 2 though
GIVE EM A TASTE OF THE GOOD SHIT AHHH
>what would I play?
Start with 2 then DmC
1 & 3
Well, Unreal 3 was released before PBR got popular and wide-spread. So they didn't implement the rendering pipeline. RE Engine was waay after PBR was popular, and as you can see, they did implement it. High RAM and VRAM was also not average consumer-grade at that time, so high res textures were used sparingly. Same goes for shading and detail- not enough processing power. It's like comparing the PS2 with the PS4.
Is it okay playing on Kb+m?
I get that, and there's obviously a generational difference inherent, but even then DmC is an ugly game amongst other UE3 games in its generation
Of course it's okay, but it's very tedious. The games were (seemingly anyway)made for controllers. You could give it a try anyway, though.
This I definitely agree with.
3
Is this from 5 or DmC?
Probably DmC. 5's concept art looks 3D and sketch-like.
I always love seeing my OC appear from time to time
Don't insult 5 like that
Is the DMC building ever shown beyond Dante's office?
Yep, I've been a keyboard player for half a decade. All you need to do is find a layout that feels good for you. Do note however that you'd be playing probably with the keyboard only since games before 5 don't have any mouse support.
Yes in 4 SE, sometimes it also appears during main menu. You also get to see its front in 1, 3, 4 and 5.
Start with DMC1.
I realised JYB voiced Jonathan as soon as he started screaming. I couldn't recognise the voice but I recognised that scream anywhere
>Pure Virgin
This is me.
Yeah, I know the front. I just wanted to know what the rest of it looks like. So I should check 4 for that?
1 you fucking retard, why would you not start a series at the beginning?
You see a fair bit of it in the anime
Just did an attempt at DmC's Bloody Palace. It's such a fucking joke, and not in the easy way. Why are there STAGE HAZARDS in Bloody Palace? Donte is admittedly fun to play, but the game keeps trying its hardest to not make me like it.
>stage hazards
>bottomless fucking pits
>color-coded enemies
>retarded inputs like SHOOT + JUMP
>upgraded versions of moves that just do more damage instead of having the move do that much damage in the first place
The combat is fun, but fuck me is the design of the rest of the game just egregious. This is way worse than anything DMC3 or 4 made you do. I'd rather rotate the tower in DMC3 or backtrack through the whole game in DMC4 than fight over fucking pits or spend half a mission just walking and yanking shit.
The mere thought of this game's purpose being to replace the series I love just makes me sick.
Well I guess you could check out 4SE but I don't think you can see the whole thing even there.
Dude's got good range, but it's basically a coin toss if they'll let him use it or not. He voiced Kung Jin in MKX and I sometimes forget it's him because his voice is so damn deep in that game.
youtu.be
DMC3 is harder than 1
But play 3 first to get a better learning curve
If you have the camera mod you can use it to see Dante's office in 5.
I got to floor 100 multiple times, but would always get two shotted by Mundus because some of his attacks actually ignore i-frames one the original/pc version of the game. The DE changelog comfirst that this is the games, same with Mundus Spawn's shockwave attacks. They call it a bug in the changelog, but I wouldn't put it past NT that it was actually intentional as some sort of weird design choice.
>play 3 before 1
Why would you go backwards mechanically? That's going to be awkward as shit.
Remember the big guys with the buzzsaw arms? I remember dodging one of their shockwave attacks and it just killed me. No i-frames for me, I guess.
If you get hit by an arrow from those flying baby looking demon while in the middle of a dodge, hitstop will still be applied even though you'll evade the damage.
Imagine if Itsuno wasn't there to babysit them. Good lord, we might have gotten a DMC5 sooner or not at all.
>if DmC didn't exist Itsuno wouldn't be able to use it as leverage
Only decent thing the reboot did
>no mouse
Nice. I might get the game on PC then.
He became what his father and uncle couldn't.
A functioning adult.
Why does the Qliphoth have butterflies?
Urizen likes them
What a homo lmao
Not unexpected since vergil is pretty homo himself.
>tries to cut the homo out of himself
>both sides end up homo
vergil fucked up
maybe
>pure virgin
>from the creator of Resident Evil & Knuckles
>featuring Dante from the Devil May Cry series
Donte is an edgelord played completely straight
Dante treats pretty much everything as fun and games and never outwardly takes things seriously - in this he appeals to Yea Forums who perhaps in him see the reflection of themselves as people who project the air of levity to conceal their awkward nervousness in all aspects of life
>Thus, little by little, I was transformed into an eccentric clown.
>dmc community cries because their favourite korean pop star character's hair isn't white or styled in a different way
dmc fans are some of the biggest faggots I've ever seen
I feel range is overrated for VAs. It's a nice thing to have but if you can sell the character then it becomes less important. Johnny's a good example of this: he's usually cast as the hero type, which he's good at, but his performance as Adachi was fucking incredible even though it was basically the same JYB voice, just with a calmer demeanor
Don't worry the twinks game flopped so we never have to deal with this again unless they want more hate directed at everyone at the studio.
Donte's cocky like Dante but in a bad way.
>DMC 2 rereleased today
>because of this all those people who pick up Switch Lites will see DMC 2 on the front of the store page for $20
Dante was first and autists hate change
This.
I just enjoy it when a powerful person is capable of risking his own dominance for an appeal to mercy, even if game logic and morality tells the player that it won’t happen, it’s nice to see a character who still challenges it.
Bayo does come off as merciless and her finishers are all the most brutal ways to kill her opponents; and sure I’d like to see a scenario where she may show mercy to what is essentially food for her demon pets but I’m also aware that it’s what defines Bayonetta, (much like how Doom Guy will kill his enemies in the most efficient way possible cause he just wants them dead and that’s all the satisfaction he needs).
Still upset they went with this instead of a DMC1 or 4 outfit
especially because it looks better than his default
Give him Nevan, or Nevan's hispanic cousin.
He also voiced Lelouch from Code Geass in the English Dub.
He looks like a young Santa Clause.
I can’t believe they ripped off American McGee’s Alice: Madness Returns for the DT.
Fanmade DT for Donte.
Same for Vorgil
Nelo Anjelo?
Basically, yes.
Anyone have that pic of Nero's mom next to Kyrie?
Because he's not an ironic fucktard, he's being genuine when he's being ridiculous.
