UI is turned off so there's no visible lock-on marker.This game took some many stylistic choices from DmC, and that makes me happy.
Also, it looks like they altered the jumping physic. It's no longer a static humping arch, and I dare say it looks like there's no lock-on.
Kinda looks like that's Calibur(back > forward > attack in the air) getting jump canceled before the full attack animation, not air dashes!Omfg, Nero with Air Step and air dashes!? And his new gun stuff!?!?!
Trust me I did a lot of double takes on the trailer and yelled many "what the fucks" too. Not in that discord chat, I missed it but watching it live I had similar feelings. Once I got more information on the game and watched the trailer again a few times I started getting hyped again. DMC fans in general react very poorly to anything that even remotely resembles DmC lol!
Honestly people are going to come around to this. I'm loving what I'm seeing, I think it looks better than I envisioned.
It's just that the hate against DmC was so overblown that now it is leaking into DMC5 because they thought it was going to be a middle finger going full-on anime style. Still, I don't think DMC5 is remotely similar to DmC even visually, I think they're using their own style that fits the engine and their needs.
We just have people who doesn't even know what they want from DMC except being a reactionary answer for DmC. I'm glad Itsuno is doing HIS vision and not just a "haha fuck DmC, here's DMC3-2"
Itsuno looked directly into the camera, to the fans, veered into our souls and said....
"You aint seen shit yet!"
God damn I love me some cocky Itsuno!
Damn he actually cried after revealing DMCV??
And here I thought I wasnt gonna cry...
The initial fight in a neon setting is a bit of a turn off, but the hell pride fights with the lighting from the lamp post look amazing.Those definitely look like reworked DMC3-inspired demons.
Also, I didn't have an issue with the city environments in the trailer, but they're looking a bit bland in the gameplay footage...hopefully this isn't representative of what the bulk of the game has to offer; like DMC3's opening.
Lock-on is absolutely there.This game took some many stylistic choices from DmC, and that makes me happy.

Not the first time they took influence from DmC's gameplay, either.It definitely seems that Nero can on the fly swap between different types of Devil Breakers. It's his version of Style switching. Don't know how many you can equip at once, there is even a picture of him having a second arm behind him while he is surfing another one.
Also quite a lot of DmC influences in there. Ricoshot like move, slow down after finishing a fight and altered jump arc/movement. This is good because more quality of life changes are always welcome.
Whoever the negative crybaby is sounds like a real downer to be around.
"this cant be it. no no no"
jesus christ
I feel his sincerity as well. They're making something that will leave a mark.itsuno looked so excited and proud to show off the game. For good reason too as the gameplay looked fantastic.
I get the feeling that this is going to be something truly special.

I know they are adding a bunch of tools to Nero's arsenal with the Devil Breakers but right now Nero's combat is feeling quite a lot like DMC4.5. Or rather it feels like the complete character that Nero should have been in DMC4. There aren't enough changes at the fundamental levels from what I can see. For most DMC fans this isn't a problem but for new players we are going to have to same issues as before where they are going to get bogged down by the control schemes and actions. They seem to be keeping the same lock on dodge system from DMC1 (bleh). Like you could have transplanted this Nero in DMC4 and no one would have batted an eye. But of course Nero is just one piece of the puzzle and we simple don't know enough but my initial impression is that the game play and combat is veering on the safe side. Yeah there are DmC flourishes here and there but they don't fundamentally alter much, they are just extra bells and whistles.
Also before anyone brings up that DMCV is some how slower than DMC4:

It's the same exact speed as DMC4. It just goes to show how essential Turbo mode is to have as a default option because we are all so used to it by now.
Who's comments? The animations are ripped straight from DMC4. They are fine, they aren't like DmC.What do you think about his comments about animations looking off? I certainly noted it, but probably is the fact video is 30fps instead of 60fps.
I wonder when we can expect an official reveal for V.
I'm interested in seeing this play style of theirs.

The third playable character is currently called V. They haven't revealed his real name yet.
The third mysterious character is nicknamed "Mysterious V" LOL!
guyz if Nero has this much variety with the devil breakers... imagine maximum uncle Dante's moveset...
I bet Nero's levels are more punk while Dante's is gonna be victorian/gothic
Oh gee, i wonder who could that be?The third mysterious character is nicknamed "Mysterious V" LOL!
It's a mystery.
The environments look like an updated version of DMC3's city environments to me
The third mysterious character is nicknamed "Mysterious V" LOL!
I still think it's not gonna be Vergil. It doesn't look like him and it feels a little to obvious.
It's Vante!first gilver, now 'the mysterious v', what's next? livgrev? lol. somebody tell my man he's gotta get more creative.
Could be Vergil's inhabiting someone else's body, and what was clearly Vergil's OG body in the trailer might be inhabited by someone else.
Mundus could have been mass-producing Ne(r/l)o Angelos who all think they're the original Vergil.

With REmake2 coming in January, when the hell does this game come out? March?
