SO SEVEN YEARS LATER....HOW YA FEELING ABOUT THIS ONE ?

Spoiler: My name by the way is

 

[Dale Copper]

Better than 2, but worse than everything else especially the OG release of DmC.

 

[The Doctor]

Didn't know you liked DMC: Devil May Cry, Okabe!

 

[SenseiX]

Combat was ok. Characters were NOT ok.

 

[Normal]

Great game and was pretty glad to see that DMCV took heavy inspirations from it. Would love to see a sequel to it since the story ended in a cliff hanger. Still has the best level design and structure from the entire series.

Anyway, why use trailers that don't represent the final product in anyway? Dante(second trailer) doesn't even look like that in the final game.

 

[V has come to]

yikes. glad the real series is back

 

[Sweet James Jones]

LOOOOVED this game. The level design was truly astounding.

 

[lowhighkang_LHK]

wHaT yEAR iS iT

 

[Snake Eater]

Great game and best art design by a mile in the series

 

[illmatic22]

While I'm glad the main series has triumphantly returned, this game was not bad either.

 

[Akainu]

Still better than dmc4.

 

[deftones r cool]

This game rules, haters gonna hate

 

[Deleted member 2229]

Best dmc game

You say this every anniversary for some failed console?

 

[darkslayer101]

yikes
oh well at least the course correction has already happened

 

[Mejilan]

The O/G was garbage. The DE was pretty decent, however.
I'll never like the character designs or much of the writing; but some of the weapons and most of the environments were pretty stellar.
That Faux News boss was some awesome meta-commentary, too.

And it'll never be worse than DMC2, so there's that.

 

[mugurumakensei]

One of the best DMC games especially with the definitive edition plus the mods for PC back in the day before Capcom made the DE

 

[CenturionNami]

Good riddance.

 

[Normal]

Forgot to mention that Aquila was dope.

 

[BadWolf]

It was okay.

Now that the mainline series is back I don't think about DmC much, negatively or positively.

 

[Dahbomb]

Game is better than a lot of people give it credit for but also not as good as others claim.

DmC can be appreciated more now that there is no "it's either this or no DMC game" doomsday scenario. It serves as a perfectly fine spin off action game to the DMC series, not as a replacement. Quite some features in DmC made it into DMC5 so it was still very much a net positive that this game existed.

I am actually surprised it has been this long (7 years).

 

[matrix-cat]

We got the real series back, it was a 10/10, Capcom is back, Vergil DLC any day now. Time has healed the wound well and truly, and now I can look back on DmC as... eh, fine. Not the end of the world. I didn't personally enjoy it much, but I'm glad others had fun with it.

 

[IDreamOfHime]

Love this game so much, as much as I also loved Hellblade and it's sequel will be aces, I hope they make something similar to dmc for Series One.

 

[Garrod Ran]

a lovely world inhabited by some truly vile characters

 

[nsilvias]

Good game, bad dmc game

 

[Deleted member 28386]

yikes. glad the real series is back

Weird, because your avatar comes from a game with combat inferior to DmC.

 

[rude]

Easily the best western developed action game of all time, not that that really means anything.

Average game.

 

[ArbitraryWater]

DmC is totally fine. Removed from the context of people who are very into the deep combat mechanics of the main series, it's a solid "one playthrough and you're done" sort of game.

That said, I'm not going to pretend for a second that I don't prefer the world where Keiji Inafune's doom and gloom about the Japanese games industry was proven critically wrong and this western-led reboot fell flat on its face.

 

[Garrod Ran]

Easily the best western developed action game of all time, not that that really means anything.

Average game.

i find it hard to say that they developed it when capcom basically had to hold their hands the entire time

 

[Rondell Dobard]

The most interesting thing about this game is how many people were falling over themselves to not only put down original games but how this is absolutely the direction they need to go in.

 

[KernelC]

The second best Devil May Cry game.
Don't @ me if you are wrong and disagree

If the game didn't have the Devil May Cry brand on it, would've been received much differently

 

[Rika]

Seems waaay longer than that.

 

[Jawmuncher]

DmC reminds me a lot of RE6. Games that had a fun base for what they are but aren't what part of the community ever wanted. Thankfully time has healed some wounds where once there would be a lot of arguments on them (Mainly when people thought these would be the new direction of both series). Now things are more "they're fine for what they are even if I don't like them. Still wouldn't mind seeing as sequel just for the hell of it.

Spoiler

I'll never get over Twitter thinking this post was serious though

I think it's really obvious that people really wanted DmC 2 instead of 5. So the hype just isn't gonna be all that strong as it could've been due to that.

[Aly]

Gave us one of the funniest cutscenes ever.

 

[Daysean]

Happy anniversary shit game

Call me when we celebrate the Definite Version

Don't know what the fuck Ninja Theory was thinking with color coded enemies, you want to use both angel and demon weapons?
Get fucked, gotta use slow ass Demon Axe/Fist because get fucked

 

[Rei no Otaku]

Best game in the series. I still play it. DMCV was a disappointment in comparison.

 

[Hailinel]

How do I feel about this game?

It was a huge mistake in every respect.

 

[Chaos2Frozen]

The only way to enjoy the game

 

[Optional Objectives]

[SmokedSalmon]

I liked it.

 

[Jawmuncher]

 

[Garrod Ran]

more so than dante, I'll never understand how they managed vergil look so horrid
he so aggressively lacks any sharpness or style, like they were trying to make him seem egregiously uncool

 

[Gabriel Hall]

Easier to tolerate ever since DMCV was released to critical acclaim. I'm happy for the small things it introduced that DMCV honours, such as the kill cam that signals the end of a fight. Or how 4SE Vergil represents the best playable incarnation of the character thanks in part to the addition of select DmC Vergil moves like Rising Star or Orbit (albeit with different properties)

When the Definitive Edition goes on sale, I'll give it a proper whirl, but beyond that, I'm more grateful that the original series is the one that survived.

 

[Mindfreak191]

You can talk shit as much as you want, but the limbo sections in the game looked amazing.

 

[Modest_Modsoul]

I used to be neutral about his hair, but no, I hated it.

 

[Firmament1]

Gotta laugh at people who actually hate this game for the writing, of all things.

As of now, there are exactly 2 DMC games with an actually passable story. 3, and 5.

Base was just "okay". DE is solid. My ranking for the DMC games goes:

3 > 5 > 1 >= DmC > 4 > 2

 

[newmoneytrash]

it's a good game but i wish everyone would shut up about it

 

[Kiro]

First jump into DMC series with this game. Loved it.

 

[Etrian Darkness]

Glad we never got a sequel.
