Devil May Cry 5 Reveal Trailer (PS4/XB1/PC - Spring 2019)
- Thread starter Sargerus
- Start date
I never said that people can't dislike it. Only explaining why it's so different in the first place. Frankly I prefer this level of fidelity and art direction compared to what was seen in DMC4. Like universe wise it's still the same tone but rendered with modern tech:
i dont really know how to feel. i feel like i might warm up to it at some point, its just such a weird turn from previously established DMC. But hearing some of the more kooky antics in the trailer makes me more relieved
CAPCOM adopting platinum's tradition of having clowny ass sidekicks I see...
"Distinctive gothic" feel, huh? None of the architecture in 1 is similar to the architecture in 3 is similar to the architecture in 4. They have gothic elements, and the first is very gothic, but 4 went for a very obvious art nouveau look. 3 went for babylonian. You're simply not correct. It would have been more accurate to say they all had strong anime elements to the art style and those are now removed.
If anything the ruined/seedy streets in this are closer to 3 and 1 (opening cutscene) and 2 and 4.

You know what, I won't be shitting up every thread about this game, a lot of people are excited. Hope you guys have a lot of fun.
I'm out.

Considering the lyrics have DEVIL TRIGGER in it, it's seems like an original pop song for this game. Not even Bayonetta would have that.
The trailer and direction actually has me a bit worried about the Resident 2 remake.
I love photorealism to a certain extent. DMC isn't a franchise where I think how I would love to see photo realistic models.
Also, I didn't play DMC4 much, but why does Nero strongly resemble Dante from DmC?

Yeah I'm pretty sure that health regeneration is actually a canon ability for Dante and Vergil, Dante gets stabbed in the torso so many times in cutscenes and lives to tell about it. That said, Nero is 1/4 demon, so it's not surprising that he doesn't as powerful as Dante and Vergil.
Its weird because DmCs artstyle in its level design is actually pretty good. Was hoping 5 would take the gothic architecture into something more memorable. Blend it with demon/angel stuff.
He's got so much style and he's got the young attitude to pull it off. Some comments are reminding me a lot of the DMC4 comments when Nero was first shown. He's doing the damn thing.Wait a second...
Is Nero using his own arm as a ridable rocket?
How can you hate on this game. How can you.
Mostly a new song created as part of the OST like the excellent OST of the previous games but now sung by woman. Nice.
fuckin finally. i've been waiting so damn long.
all ya artstyle haters can step off, we back in the OG universe and in house development.

It's nothing to doing with "western" people, whatever that means. They typically don't look like natural humans at all, it's usually a stylization approach.
Sometimes I find it awkward as hell if the art direction is inconsistent or the game doesn't push that boundary on a technical level.
I don't really dislike DmC's environmental art style, yeah. I think it was a cool idea, just not a good fit for this series, essentially.
I wanted to see crazy over-the-top horror-adjacent art for DMC5.
Yeah, you are right and I'll make a post about that later once the thread slows down a bit.
Right now it's just moving too fast.
I mean, Joel will probably look different in TLOU2 as a result of the closer push to photorealism. It's not inherently a problem unless you were literally expecting a sequel coming out 10 years later to still retain anime art direction for the models.
I don't even hate the new direction that much but why is expecting and anime ass series to maintain an anime style such a reach?
Or all games just expected to become photorealistic? Because I really hope Atlus doesn't get that memo if it is.
I just noticed this! They got Shimomura back for the cutscenes for sure :P
You could try and discuss it with other old timey DMC fans who definitly should have different priorities than normal people. Like what do you think people are most excited about?
After watching the trailer again, I still really dig that theme. Surfing the rocket arm is some real ass DMC shit that I missed.
This line from the Capcom blog should be put in the first post. People think that Nero will be the only playable character. This was his trailer, we havnt seen dantes and the third characters trailer yet.
Utterly Insane Action
However, Nero is not alone in this fight. Our gameplay announcement trailer above focuses on Nero and his new set of tricks, but Devil May Cry 5 will feature 3 playable characters, with their own unique over-the-top playstyles and flair.

To complete my streak of negative reactions to all the reveals (sorry but I just didn't connect to any of it), this reveal was also disappointing. Didn't like the face they chose, didn't like the dark-techno direction instead of the gothic, and overall the action seemed pretty standard. The female character was the only interesting bit. Hope it gets shown better in another context.
