How do you know he wasn't showing the unlucky woman the power of sparda?

Ugh, why oh why are we playing with DmC Dante look alike again? Poor Nero. That female character is also horrendous. Dante looks okay I guess.

I'm sure gameplay will be solid but bleh, really disappointed with the character designs.

DMC joining the ranks of the dad simulators.

"BOY, what have you done with my sword?"

"Piss off old man, get your face checked out"

*rips off Boy's arm*


What an emotional reunion, instant GOTY.

Remember when people tried to retroactively claim the initial backlash to DmC was not 100% the change in art style and character design?

I can't stop watching this trailer, please send help.

Spring 2019 seems so far away, but I'm so happy to see it exist. Lived up to the hype completely.

Man that was a great reveal trailer. Took me a sec to figure out that was Nero but the faces in this game look really great.

One co-worker saw her as having a bucktooth every time he saw here lol.
I really like her right off the bat, seems to be a high energy/fun character, really impressed by her animations too.

On first watch, me reaction was one of shock. I though Nero was Dante and they had gone for the DmC look for him. The girl was annoying, the art style didn't look like Devil May Cry, the soundtrack was poor.

But then I watched it again, and again, and over and over again. It was Nero of course with the Rev Sword. Dante came in at the end and looked cool. That was Pandroa as his MOTORBIKE!!! Did Nero just pull his arm out and ride it like a hoverboard?! The gameplay looked awesome. Someone on ERA posted the battle theme and it's actually dope as hell.

The more I see the trailer, the better and better it comes across. I've gone from initial shock to really, REALLY digging the game. With Itsuno you know the gameplay is going to be there, and the size and scale of the game looks way more epic than anything we've seen from any prior DMC game. Can't wait to actually play the game now, I think it will be great!

Y'all crazy for needing time to adjust to better visuals.
I don't see what "better visuals" has anything to do with the changes they made to his face. They don't really look like the same person. Even if you gave new Nero his old hair he'd still just look like some dude cosplaying Nero. FF13 to 15 was a big jump graphically and that didn't stop 15 from staying true to the faces FF is known for. I do prefer him with short hair but this new face isn't Nero.

To me his face just looks too big. Give him a smaller jaw and his old hairstyle and it's Nero. Just look at his eyes.

Edit: I actually just remembered who he reminds me of. Fucking David Boreanaz.

Vergil could have asked his son nicely for the Yamato back, like, "hey I'm your dad and Dante's nice brother, can you give me my sword back please?". Vergil's such an asshole.
But he's the best

It is heh ? and somehow capcom managed to use the one shot where Dante looks hideous as the first reveal.

I mean, the only shot of Dante in the trailer is when he's in the middle of yucking it up. I don't see what's hideous about it. People make funny looking faces.

I guess Dante is still handsome as fuck. The expression he's making in the trailer is throwing people off.

Nero, Nico and Dante all look great to me. Love the added emphasis on facial expressions.

Also Dante reminds me of an older version of an actor that I can't quite put my finger on. I've seen him in a bunch of stuff, but of course I can't recall any of it now. It's killing me lol

I think the problem is that this is the first time we see facial expressions so accurately animated in DMC, that is creating such an uncanny valley with the fans that are used to porcelain faces.

Even in DMC4, I can't think of scenes that had Dante without his smirking face, except when his pizza got robbed.

Yeah, I'm embarrassed of my negative reaction this game at first, especially with how pumped Itsuno was to announce the game. I wanna go back and slap myself. This game looks fantastic. Different than I was expecting sure, but I got over it real quick. I'm so fucking ready for this game.
