I know there was a just rev and max rev mechanic, but that wasn't fun. I really hated having to press the trigger with every attack simultaneously, it wasn't a challenging mechanic, it was just unfun.

Someone told me that was the girl in the trailer but the girl's tattoos do not match the person's tattoo on the cover.
Okay, so on re-watching this trailer I like it waaaaaaay better than the first time. I think the first way through I was still kind of thinking of it as DmC2 so it gave me a really terrible first impression, but on second viewing though the style is different and in ways more like DmC, it's not like DmC in the ways that I disliked about DmC, so I don't really have any reason to complain. The theme was also hype as hell.
100% hyped for this now.

I don't know how to feel about the reveal. I mean, I'm hyped that we're actually getting another DMC, that's amazing!
But...Nero does look a lot like Donte, Dante's face is looking iffy and the aesthetic is way less gothic than usual DMC fare. On the other hand, you've got Nero's (now) robot arm which opens the gameplay possibilities up inmensely plus really nice graphics which mean that Capcom is not half-assing this. Anyways, there's so much you can take away from just one trailer, so I need to see more of the game to make up my mind, but after seeing the trailer many times, my confidence is slowly rising.
Plus, Itsuno says the game's shaping up great, how could I doubt him!

Yeah, their RE engine is pretty good, got to be honest. I think the look may grow on me
I just keep watching it and shaking my head over how sick this looks.
I can't believe we're getting DMCV.
(Kinda funny that Nero has a bionic arm like Venom Snake now, too. V had come to, indeed)
People aren't even attempting to talk gameplay, people are fucking asleep as fuck in a DMC thread.
Another thing but I cannot understate how happy I am that my boy Nero is in and still in the centerstage of DMC5. He has a lot of potential going for himself and fleshing him out as the new generation of demon hunters rather than the hero turned sidekick of DMC4 is going to make him legendary. Nero is the oomph the franchise needs, and I'm sure he will deliver.
I've watched the trailer like fifty times already and I can't stop. Devil Trigger is so good.
Made actual Dante look like meth head Noctis too for good measure.
Yeah, this doesn't have the oversaturated and edgy look DmC had.
DMC4 had a similar look for its environments, and the characters are less stylized thanks to the better hardware for better or worse.
I'm getting RE6 vibes.
I hated RE6 but I actually think that philosophy would much better suit DMC.

Nah, man. I just find it to be really good character modeling. This is the first time seeing DMC characters with that level of visual fidelity. So the difference is more apparent, I suppose.
I care very little about Nero
I care immensely about him bringing Exceed and Devil Bringer gameplay to the table, however.
OP
OP
Battlefield V too lol (not really a bionic arm but you get the point)
I'll give you Ellie but the cast of Uncharted looks quite different than they did. Like it's the same designs but there are literal changes in face structure:
This is what I posted in the other DMC 5 thread
The changes to Nero are primarily a result of moving away from stylized and moving towards a more realistic graphics style on better hardware. The bigger change is the new haircut. If he had the hair from DMC4, he would look like this type of change going from 4 to 5.
I still can't believe I'm seeing this:
pretty much where I'm sitting still. feels surreal.
SPOILERS
A long time ago a demon liutenant from hell named Sparda rebelled and defeated the demon lord Mundus before he could overtake our world, sealing him away by using most of his power and becoming human-ish in the process.
He fell in love with a human woman and had two half-demon twins, Dante and Vergil, before he died. Mundus targeted Sparda's family and his wife was killed, the twins separated. When they were young adults they met again as enemies when Vergil opened the hellgate so he could steal his father's power (sealed in a sword) for himself. In the end Dante defeated him and took the sword while Vergil went to hell willingly and was corrupted by Mundus, who turned him into Nelo Angelo.
After some time Trish, a demonic clone of his mother appeared in Dante's office and told him Mundus was about to get resurrected. Dante went to an island overtaken by Mundus' demons and after some drama with Trish and Nelo Angelo (who died) he unlocked Sparda's power from the aforementioned sword and sealed Mundus again.
Years later, in some island where a cult revered Sparda, an orphan named Nero developed a serious case of demon-arm-itis just before Dante appeared and started killing a bunch of cultists which were actually using pieces of Vergil to turn themselves into demons. After some more drama with Nero' girlfriend Kyrie, Sparda's and Vergil's swords, Dante and Nero teamed up and destroyed a giant statuesque demon finishing the cult for good and saving the day.
At some point Dante got a coin and a motorbike and saved the world again from some rich asshole, then ended up going to hell (sorry, DMC2 is super fuzzy in my mind).
Cue DMC5.
I think it's Lady.
Her gameplay style would appeal a lot to the shooter/casual crowd.
I'm aware of that part of the mechanic, I'm just not a fan of it. It's one of the main reasons I enjoyed playing Dante more than Nero in DMC4. Revving only provided fake-depth because Nero's moveset was significantly more limited than Dante's.
Artstyle is uninteresting, but everything else is great (music is growing on me too)
Really disliking the nero redesign because he looks too close to DmC's donte.
I'm shocked that made it out of the design process.
This isn't exactly the reveal I wanted after 10 years.... but that was my own fault for being overhyped.

Hopefully they still put up that song at some point because I really digged it.Anyone else notice that the Capcom Unity blog post removed the info about Nero's battle theme "Devil Trigger" being composed by Ali Edwards, and it supposed to have been released now on digital music stores?
You can still view it on the cached version of the page.
Tetsuya Shibata best not have gotten the boot because I was seriously not a fan of the music in the trailer.
Oh shit, I didn't think about that. I GOT QUESTIONS NOW.
It might depend on whether or not Nico is using stuff from the Demon World to make Nero's arms.
He'll apparently have wings if we go by the V at the end of the trailer.
You have a point, even though Dante is kind of a different example because he did have a personality in DMC1. But I think hoping for Lucia in any future DMC game is setting oneself up for disappointment; Capcom seems to want to forget about DMC2 entirely, and frankly, who can blame them?
Capcom Press Release / Fact sheet (sorry if already posted) - but I guess the third character is new and not virgil.
A brand new entry in the legendary over-the-top action series comes to Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC in Spring 2019, complete with its signature blend of high-octane stylized action and otherworldly and original characters the series is known for. Director Hideaki Itsuno and the core team have reunited to create the most over the top, technically advanced, utterly insane action experience of this generation.
Years have passed since the legions of hell have set foot in this world, but now a new demonic invasion has begun, and humanity's last hope will rest in the hands of three lone demon hunters, each offering a radically different play style. United by fate and a thirst for vengeance, these demon hunters will have to face their demons if they hope to survive.
FEATURES
• Legendary action series returns – The 16 million unit selling series is back with original Director Hideaki Itsuno at the helm of development.
• A battle of good and evil – A demonic invasion begins with the seeds of a "demon tree" taking root in Red Grave City. This hellish incursion attracts the attention of the young demon hunter, Nero, an ally of Dante who now finds himself without his demonic arm, the source of much of his power. The supernatural family drama also continues as Dante, the Son of Sparda, seeks revenge for his brother's corruption and mother's murder.
• High octane stylized action – Featuring three playable characters each with a radically different stylish combat play style as they take on the city overrun with demons.
• Groundbreaking graphics – Developed with Capcom's in-house proprietary RE engine, the series continues to achieve new heights in fidelity with graphics that utilize photorealistic character designs and stunning lighting and environmental effects.
• Take down the demonic invasion – Battle against epic bosses in adrenaline fueled fights across the over-run Red Grave City.
• Demon hunter - Nero, one of the series main protagonists and a young demon hunter who has the blood of Sparda, heads to Red Grave City to face the hellish onslaught of demons, with weapons craftswoman and new partner-in-crime, Nico.

Eh, I love Itsuno, but he's the guy who created DMC3/DMC4 (and rightfully established the genre's shtick), the original director is Kamiya. But I guess "DMC3/DMC4's original director" is not a practical marketing phrase.
Yeah people would be hating on how bland it looked. Most couldn't be bothered to care to know anything else about the game.
Is this confirmed after 2? 3 years since DMC4, is that after 1?
Also, how beast do you think Dante's new devil trigger will be?
