Devil May Cry 5 Reveal Trailer (PS4/XB1/PC - Spring 2019)

[00Bear00]

The level of detail in this scene is ridiculous. You can see the light reflecting off of the soldiers goggles from Nero's devil breaker lighting attacks. Even the blood on his vest reflects the blue light.

I must say that it looks graphically nice but Im not a fan of Nico's design. Im actually surprised at the love she is getting and her "country" accent is killing me. Most of the people I grew up with have a country accent but she just sounds like she is trying too hard....

Yeah, that's quite good. Just goes to show you how close Little V's remix was.

 

[bunkitz]

I honestly want Crew Cut to join the party and ride with them. He would do nothing aside from talking about how crazy all of this is, and wish them good luck, I guess.

Click to shrink...

Thought of this some time ago. Legit want this.

 

[Neoxon]

In case you guys missed it, IGN did a video on a few things that they want in DMC5.



It would be nice if Nero had more Devil Arms, but I believe the point of Nero is to have an easier entry point into the series while also having a fair bit of depth, while Dante is the one who goes bat-shit crazy with the complexity.

Click to shrink...

Some people say to give Nero more weapons and then mention stuff like a shotgun, what's the point? It just makes him more similar to Dante.

The current direction is fine and more distinct. Give him more moves for Red Queen and Blue Rose and focus the rest of his depth on the Devil Breakers. No need to turn him into Dante light.

 

[Deleted member 13560]

I agrees. Instead of more guns, I'd rather see Blue Rose get a hefty movelist.

I feel like the arms thing is the more weapons for Nero....
Also the exceed mechanic would probably only work with Red Queen. :p
This is a decent video from IGN. Doesn't take the time to shit on DMC or the reboot.

I don't think it's fair to ask for more unlockable characters when we are getting 3 of them out of the gate. This isn't some Musou, these characters have a ton of depth to them.

To me, it kinda came off as if whoever wrote it just didn't know.

I do hope we get Lady/Trish/classic Vergil eventually (special edition DLC?) but I'm also fine with especially Lady/Trish getting a lot more time in the oven.

 

[AppleMIX]

Did the every confirm if the game has a player controlled camera?

 

[wubalubadubdub]

I think this game is going to be special, but the character redesigns are killing me.

 

[bunkitz]

Would have been cool if Nero got to use the Yamato as an actual weapon (in a completely different way from Vergil's iaido) in his Devil Trigger state, but Vergil made sure that's never happening.

 

[The Silver]

I always wanted Nero to modify his red queen with different elements and properties. Devil breaker seems to be that philosophy.

Though I still want to rev up Red Queen and have ice shoot out to freeze enemies.

Click to shrink...

Yeah, and there will be switching gameplay via the 'devil breakers' anyway.

What I think is needed is better onboarding for new players with Max Exceed. What Nero is great for is getting an awful lot out of very few attacks and having explodey on-fire versions of all your attacks is part of that I think. But when people miss that or just ignore it Nero becomes Dante-lite.

At least here Devil Breakers will make things feel different.

I kind of want any weapon Nero uses to have some kind of rev/ex-act mechanic associated with it, to be honest. Yamato's not gonna do that.

 

[DantesLink]

what
if this game is getting a DLC expansion or DLC costumes then this isn't DmC inspired at all.. it's the norm in the industry but I think you already know this.


Edit: Oh you meant a DmC Dante costume? Yeah the chances of Nero getting one are pretty high I'd say, or at least a color palette, although I'm not sure people would buy a color so it'd probably be an unlock like in DMC4SE.

Click to shrink...

Wow, that works way too well as just a pallet swap. We don't even need it to be a official skin, mods can knock this one out well one their own.

Click to shrink...

YOOOO, now this is a skin I NEED TO SEE HAPPEN.

I just realized if Silent Hill 3 had an HD Remake, this is where the character detail would be.

Click to shrink...

That's the dream alright, kinda hoping Bluepoints next remaster is another PS2 gem.

And that's not the only impressive thing in that scene. If you look at Nico's white shirt under her vest, it's actually affected by the wind.

Also, she really likes to smoke lol

Click to shrink...

Seriously; the more we re-watch the trailer, the better it looks.

I agrees. Instead of more guns, I'd rather see Blue Rose get a hefty movelist.

This please.

Click to shrink...

Well, I was just thinking of it as a Devil Trigger exclusive weapon, so that in itself creates some sort of special functionality. Not quite the same as the Exceed, of course, but I like the idea.

Having any weapon he gets to have some special Exceed-like feature would be awfully convenient, though. Not exactly a fan of that.

 

[TreIII]

I do hope we get Lady/Trish/classic Vergil eventually (special edition DLC?) but I'm also fine with especially Lady/Trish getting a lot more time in the oven.

Click to shrink...

They could give us a DLC campaign that pretty much gives all of "Dante's Angels" (Trish, Lucia, Lady) a chance to shine, and I'd be alllll over that.

 

[BreakAtmo]

Click to shrink...

I want it to get plant powers. Charge it so it emits poisonous spores and vines that grab an enemy that gets swung and slammed with every attack.

 

[bunkitz]

Given that Nico is Nell's granddaughter, maybe she'll modify the Blue Rose too? Although, I love the fact that Nero and Nero alone (right?) made the gun himself.

 

[Wrath Of Exodust]

I'd love for Nero to have more weapons. One of the main reasons I prefer Dante to Nero is the devil arms. The devil breaker system is a step in the right direction but I wouldn't mind if Nico could make more cool shit for Nero.

I started playing the HD collection to prepare for 5. The game (3) is kicking my ass..

Replay chapters and buy the orb that permanently increases your health bar. I just beat it two weeks ago its a great game. I would also recommend using the Trickster style for it superior eight direction dodge.

I had trouble at first, but then I eventually got better and prevailed. Be prepared for several tough boss battles across the game.

Also, like the above user I used trickster (though I decided to experiment with swordmaster style later on).

Modify it with sound waves, make good on Nero's air guitar taunt.

Or they could just have it in the game. I know season passes are the thing now but I think capcom should shove as much good content into this game instead of dlc. They could use the continued good pr

 

[matrix-cat]

Best to prepare for the worst when it comes to Capcom's monetization practices with this game. There's going to be a Season Pass, they're going to sell skins, cosmetics, extra challenge modes, Devil Breaker reloads, DLC, Vergil and then there'll be a Special Edition six months later. Just look at basically every major Capcom release this gen. Make your peace with it now because it's going to happen :P

 

[bunkitz]

Season Pass with a Vergil campaign, Trish campaign, and Lady campaign. I'm gonna dream.

 

[bar_bar12]

Just imagine the level of animation Vergil will have in this game when we inevitably play as him

 

[OniBaka]

Not sure if posted.

Infuse it with the power of light and darkness. No gameplay changes, but it now yells 'Fuck You!' in Donte's voice with every swing.

 

[snausages]

I am fine with all that DLC stuff.

All I want is that they separate out the three playable characters in their own campaigns. So if one of the three isn't fun to play as (which was DMC4 Dante for me) then I don't got to lump it with them to play a campaign playthrough.

Do it DMC2 style. The campaigns I mean, not the bit where DMC2 was shit.

 

[SweetSark]

I expect from Nixo at least a Minigun arm if I want to love the game even more.

 

[lowhighkang_LHK]

I'm fine with DLC. Probably will get a lot of character outfits and skins.

DLC support is a lot better than absolute silence from the main series for a decade plus.

 

[Almagest]

I actually like the idea of full DLC support, as long as at least one classic extra costume (Sparda for example) makes it to the base game.

There's a lot of room for DLC, costumes, legacy and new DA's etc. and it'd be nice to have the option to buy them if you want.

 

[Wrath Of Exodust]

Devil Arms should never be DLC

 

[Almagest]

Devil Arms should never be DLC

Click to shrink...

What about Legacy DA's that are not in the base game? Stuff like Cerberus or Nevan? I think it would be ok as long as the base game is packed with new stuff.

 

[bunkitz]

Devil Arms should never be DLC

Click to shrink...

Legacy Devil Arms ought to be. Unless the story specifically has Dante returning to get them all.

 

[Deleted member 11093]

One new costume for each character, coatless and shirtless alts for the defaults for all three characters, this stuff should be in the base game, I'm almost sure the coatless and shirtless alts will be available for free thanks to the modding community on PC, but they should be on console too. I don't like the idea of DLC Devil Arms either, even if they're returnees, just give them to Trish or Lucia if they ever become playable, because the idea of locking Devil Arms for Dante as DLCs is never going to fly well.

Season Pass should be a lengthy Vergil campaign with his own levels, bosses and enemies, and a campaign for Trish would be cool, but Vergil should always be the priority, and it should contain newer costumes for Nero, V and Dante, and maybe a bunch of new selectable backgrounds for Blood Palace, then a year or two later they can repackage the game with the season pass on disc as a Special Edition.

Also, instead of offering their own color palette alts, they should give players the option to adjust the colors to their liking.

 

[Deleted member 26293]

I'm fine with paid DLC as long as it's just skins and boosters or something more substantial like a brand new character + related weapons, but single Devil Arms as paid DLC would be quite disappointing.

I hope they will follow a MH-like model for new content, free stuff every month for a while and then a big paid expansion pack after a year or so.

 

[SweetSark]

I don't even mind paying for a story DLC if the core game is so good.
However extra weapons, skins, etc aren't hot for me.

Click to shrink...

They'll probably reuse everything like Nero.

 

[Deleted member 11093]

Yeah, Rebellion/Ebony&Ivory and Yamato's animations will most likely be reused for Dante and Vergil in 5 respectively, since they reused Red Queen's animations they aren't stopping cutting development costs there.


Edit: Regarding the animation video above... I can't stress enough how Vergil looks so fucking good in 4 compared to his goofy looking hair model in 3, I know tech wasn't that good back in the day but I feel like they should've at least tried harder to simulate his concept art hair like they did with Dante.

And my god do Vergil's animations still hold up in 3.

 

[Son of Sparda]

Just imagine the level of animation Vergil will have in this game when we inevitably play as him

Click to shrink...

I want to, but then I remember how they are reusing the same 10 years old animations for Nero and think we should keep expectations in check in that regard.

 

[JEH]

The animations are so good anyway it's ok if they reuse. Rather they do that than cut content.

 

[BadWolf]

Having similar attacks (as in key poses etc.) =/= copying/pasting the exact same animation.

There is no need to create/redesign every attack from scratch, at that point you might as well just create a brand new character.

Whether it's classic KOF, XIII or XIV, Iori's standing HK will still look like his standing HK at the end of the day.

Pretty much, Nero is definitely getting more weapons.

 

[Son of Sparda]

Here's a quick side by side comparison between DMC4 and DMCV Nero's animations. A lot of these are obvious, but I thought it'd be fun to be able to watch them next to each other:

Red Queen Combo 4:

Buster:

Highroller into Aerial Combo:

Lock-on Side Roll (in lieu of or in addition to universal dodge?):

Click to shrink...

With the exception of the new animation for roll, the Red Queen stuff are 1:1 to DMC4.

Also it's not shown in these gifs but I think Blue Rose got a new animation for when Nero puts it away. (which looks good)

In the case of Nero I'm fairly certain they're reusing animation assets.
