Kinda, but it's generally accepted to be so far in the future of the series that it'll probably never be mentioned again. There's room for plenty more games after 4 before they have to deal with anything about 2.
The way I see it is good-bad-great
DMC canon is like street fighter:They pretty much pretend it doesn't exist by making it so far into the future that it doesn't matter either way
This pattern doesn't make sense tho when DmC is great.The way I see it is good-bad-great
DMC1 (good) - DMC2 - DMC3 (Great)
DMC4 (good) - DmC - DMCV(Great)
The way I see it is good-bad-great
DMC1 (good) - DMC2 - DMC3 (Great)
DMC4 (good) - DmC - DMCV(Great)
lol I remember this pattern being a thing ever since DmC was announced.The way I see it is good-bad-great
DMC1 (good) - DMC2 - DMC3 (Great)
DMC4 (good) - DmC - DMCV(Great)
Yeah... And with DMC being the worst game. What pattern lmao
Very informative post. I always wondered about that situacion, thanks for the details.Neither were placeholders.
Onimusha 2, was in simultaneous development with Warlords, by a second team headed by Eshiro and both projects overseen by Inafune. DMC2 went into full development during the western localisation of the original, without Kamiya's Team Little Devils or Itsuno and his core team (CPS4). There were a handful of his staff who joined the team very late during it's development to help with QA as it was in absolute shambles and Itsuno was one of them, and took the bad name. 3 (and 3SE) was in his complete control right from pre-production and ultimately, his redemption as (then and now) a legendary action game designer/developer and not just another one of capcom's fighting game gods.
A slightly similar modern example would be the transition from the 2009/2010 interns at KojiPro developed Metal Gear Solid: Rising's "What will you cut?" development hell to Metal Gear Rising, after Kojima met the PlatinumGames (ironically) staff at their HQ and finalized the proceedings.
Itsuno is god, though.Maybe the pattern is that, like any good DMC boss, every time DMC itself looks to be dead, it just comes back stronger. DMC2 seemed like the end of the world until DMC3 came out and made everything OK again. Then DMC4 was the start of a slump, and DmC even lower, until a decade later when all seems lost, DMCV comes and takes its rightful place as the hypest, big-dickin'-est, most motivated, SSStylishest muhfuh'in' video game ever made by human hands.

Yes, Capcom hardly jumps the timeline forward outside of RE.
Don't forget the SF5AE and SF5 season 3 reveals and the upcoming free RE7 story DLC.What if this week marks Capcom's triumphal return thanks to a new Mega Man game, DMC V and the MH Worlds beta?

Isn't that mega man game is rumored to be esport related? :/What if this week marks Capcom's triumphal return thanks to a new Mega Man game, DMC V and the MH Worlds beta?
I really don't think you played DMC correctly if you think that. DMC 2 wasn't a horrible game by any means, but it's so braindead. Ihad my little brother just keep pressing square, and I still won most of the encounters.
i know i have poor eyesight but still can't see the Vergil V on the first one, im guessing its at the front? o.o
why thank you <3Can I just say, Sub Boss, every time I jump in this thread, I wanna fucking devour your goddamn delicious looking avatar.
No just no.The way I see it is good-bad-great

I used only guns in DMC2. You can literally shoot everything to death.I really don't think you played DMC correctly if you think that. DMC 2 wasn't a horrible game by any means, but it's so braindead. Ihad my little brother just keep pressing square, and I still won most of the encounters.
Could've sworn I read something like that on resetera, could be wrong.
Those do sound familiar... Sheesh. Can't believe he's even real, hahaha.Three things people will remember DmC's Vergil
1) He has a bigger dick
2) He drives the Vergil-Mobile with a big V on it
3) He loves abortions, can't get enough of it
Why no DLCs? You'd rather them develop the base game and that's about i? I wouldn't mind a story expansion myself.Since everyone is ranking the games:
DMC1: SSS (Legendary)
DMC2: F (what the fuck were they thinking)
DMC3: SS (Series redeemed)
DMC4: S (series confirmed great)
dmc : A (i hated the trailers and reveals but enjoyed the game greatly).
Now bring the fucking Fifth game without DLC bullshit please.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repressed_memoryAll that DMC2 talk in the last page made me go into YouTube to watch all the cutscenes and see what the story's about. Skipped ahead a few times, then started feeling like i've already beaten it before. Finally skipped all the way to the end, and yup, i've already beaten it before. Even went to my trophy list, I have the trophy for beating it, Dante's side.
You'd think for sure you'd actually remember beating a game.
It did a fairly better job at explaining things than 3 in some way,which was kinda confusing for a supposedly origin story game.Why is the world already attacked by demons? Why these 2 dudes hate each other so much? etc
Found this ancient trailer for DMC1 - No red overcoat either, just waistcoat and trousers.
Get ready for Summer 2001!
i know i have poor eyesight but still can't see the Vergil V on the first one, im guessing its at the front? o.o
Hilarious detail though all things considered this Vergil wasn't bad XD
I wouldn't say combos have different effects on different enemies. Some get wicked weaves out quicker than others, and the slower ones tend to deal more damage. The feeling you describe isn't something I feel with devil may cry as the options at your disposal are plentiful enough to make use of, while maintaining style I increase. Perhaps it's simply a different view. I have a clear bias towards devil may Cry, but as you say they are different and needn't be the same. The focus of each games systems is different, and variety is s great thing for any genre.
A good amount , it was worth it though.
I said DLC bullshit,, this is capcom remember,, they have a habit of cuting things from games and making them as DLC which is bullshit.Why no DLCs? You'd rather them develop the base game and that's about i? I wouldn't mind a story expansion myself.
How do you know whether or not a DLC is bullshit though? Developers have gotten better at hiding disc locked content.I said DLC bullshit,, this is capcom remember,, they have a habit of cuting things from games and making them as DLC which is bullshit.
You may be able to tell if the dlc doesn't require a download or a patch.How do you know whether or not a DLC is bullshit though? Developers have gotten better at hiding disc locked content.
