One thing I would like to see is if they bring back Nero & Vergil, please give them new weapons.

Vergil you could just give him the entire arsenal from Ninja Gaiden 2 (8 weapons) and they would fit his style almost perfectly. Claws, Scythe, Tonfa, fuck it he'd even make a Kusari Gama work in DMC.

Nero would be more tricky because Max ACT is such a major mechanic of his that you'd have to come up with weapons that make sense with that system (at least having a similar revving mechanics built into them physically). Lance is pretty much the only one that feels like the most obvious second weapon he could have.

That's the thing about DmC. Ninja Theory haves us everything to experience the game as much as possible. That training mode alone as well as the mode where enemies only die if your at S rank really allowed you to push your skills

I will 100% agree with this. If we could get these two features and a Legendary Dark Knight mode in whatever new title, I would be 100% onboard.

Vergil is dead, give Nero a cool variation of dark slayer style and vergils moves

Speaking on DMC5, i want to be wowed like i was with the first DMC3 trailers, if theyre bringing both nero and dante, they need to have 2 different campaigns, with exclusive bosses and enemies, make some compelling characters like in DMC3, do something with nero and vergil

On combat, expand on dantes styles, as well as putting new ones, make something where you can customize and change styles, on nero, like i said give nero use of yamato and make it like depending on the weapon you'll get an expanded moveset and different devil bringer abilities as well as give him a proper DT transformation while keeping the stand, maybe having something where you can change what devil arm the stand has equipped as well

Lance is pretty much the only one that feels like the most obvious second weapon he could have.

Three in the mould of Lady's weapons feels like enough to provide variety, with Blue Rose as his only firearm. Red Queen, the lance and a chainsaw could all hold and release charges differently; giving them more to differentiate themselves aside from the charge timing.

But Dahbomb's idea of Stand changes could also work as a way to give him more options. As long as they keep his contained and versatile design philosophy in mind instead of loading him up with weapons like Dante, when he's supposed to be a different sort of character to play.

For DMC5, I would love both Nero and Dante to each have their own campaign. They can occasionally cross paths throughout the story and then team up at the end for the big showdown.

Or they can do something similar to Yakuza 0, where every two chapters you switch off between the two characters.

After DMC4 and RE6, I have zero confidence in Capcom being able to handle multiple campaigns.

They should focus on making one campaign and make it as good as possible.

I think I recall someone bringing it up in the OT (maybe Seyavesh?), but yeah, there are some odd and quirky minor differences in SE. One of the more lamentable differences being the change to the Lucifer glitch.

yeap
there's a fix for it out now, see description here
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=knqv7a-VJTQ

the other stuff is related to nero JCing ex shuffle but that's also fixed by turning off vsync or cranking your fps up iirc
 
Some of those fans, well, a lot of them were pretty obnoxious though. I remember a huge thread of abuse targeting the Devs all over that mop/hair scene. Acting like they persecuted the old fanbase.
I wouldn't say Ninja Theory persecuted the old fanbase, but they certainly aggravated them.

I wouldn't even say Ninja Theory aggravated the old fanbase. I'd say Tameem and Alessandro Taini did. The former intentionally, and the latter unintentionally.

There's always the chance they just randomly announce it but this is a good reason to not hype yourself over things like this.

Yeah unfortunately the hype train has been delayed to E3 2018 from the looks of things.

There is probably a remote chance it makes it in that weekend anyway (we have VGA and Capcom Cup as well there) but don't get hopes up.

In fact, I wouldn't get hopes up for PSX unless Itsuno-sama graces us mortals with his presence and tweets to get excited for PSX.

Damn, I was looking forward to PSX :/ Going to hold out hope that we get an announcement at E3 I guess.

Hey guys! I've finally made it across the pond! XD

Btw, I got an idea on how to put lootboxes into DMC5...

Remember Raid Mode from RE:revelations 1/2 ? Separate mode from the main game, call it "Bloody Labyrinth" or something. Start with blank slate characters, unlock more weapons and costumes and taunts etc as you progress. No power creep loot, just like Overwatch.

Totally works :)

EDIT: Disclaimer, I don't actually want lootboxes lol but I do think the Raid mode idea could be the next step in the Bloody Palace format for added replayability.

I don't get your pessimism guys. No one promised PSX. It could be VGA, it could be a Twitter announcement, everything is open up to this point.

They'll just keep delaying the announcement in favor of more Resident Evils and Dead Risings until it's announced via tweet on some random day. I'm getting off the hype train and walking to the destination.

Eh I personally don't think it's going to happen until after Monster Hunter World is released.

...unless they reveal RE:make 2 gameplay at E3 then it wouldn't be until 2019.

Capcom feels incapable of marketing more than one big game (MHW) and one budget game (MvCI) at the same time.

And I really don't want DMC5 to be a budget game.

If someone had said a few years back that Nier 2 would release before DMC5 I'd have asked them to share whatever they were smoking.

If they said Nier 3 would get announced before DMC5 did I'd have said they were freaking delusional, but here we freaking are.

Wasn't bruceleeroy that first started the rumours about DMC5 on gaf?

I know people are still hopeful but I think even if DMC5 did exist at some point, it doesn't now.
