You can feel free to put me on your list of “not playing this”. Unless we see a LOT different from what they’ve shown now really soon, it’s not looking like my type of game.
Even if Dante was a carbon copy of his DMC1 self, I’d still be recoiling in terror. I can’t speak for everybody here but as I mentioned in the post right above you…it’s NOT just Dante. It’s Ninja Theory. Heavenly Sword was ass. If this game even kinda plays like it, it will be ass. So no, I wouldn’t be “foaming at the mouth” over the gameplay, unless of course that trailer is in no way what the game plays like and it really is fast paced and combo crazy like DMC or Bayonetta.
Throw in whatever digs and anime jokes you feel like because you seem to care that people like the original Dante so much…but it doesn’t really matter. Only time is gonna tell whether this redesign ends up being accepted (not likely from early reactions) or whether people keep wanting the original design. I for one hate that design. It’s not that it’s different from original Dante (again, my thoughts, can’t speak for the masses). It’s that what they came up with is terrible.
Normally I agree with your opinions on games in my time here on SRK, but this? Fuck no.
Well when that’s the ONLY example we’ve got from these dudes and it left a bad taste, you’ve gotta expect some people to be scared about that. Come on now.
This isn’t just directed at you, yah yah on the other side pegging it as “the best in the series”… How the fuck can you tell from a trailer with no gameplay footage?
I have to agree with this. Ignoring the “it’s not dante” unhype train, hyper tropeish rebellious teenager characters aren’t particularly exciting… IMO.
It’s supposed to get people interested in seeing more of the product. This most decidedly did not. The rest is a deduction yes, but even if this game played like DMC, I’d still be put off by the design and the early premise they’ve setup. From the developer, to the art direction, to what is again, presumably the pace of the game from that trailer, it’s just not looking good to me. I understand that statement was for everyone, but I do feel like responding, so I did in this case.
Just watched the trailer. It looks like it could work. The level design reminded of 2 and the enemy design for those ones looked pretty cool. Hopefully that’s his early-in-the-game-look and/or there are more costumes. We’ll see, at least I got other games to keep me busy:tup:
Video games is getting like hollywood. Always hitting the reboot button because they’re too dull to think of a good plot. As an actual DMC fan since day 1 im mad as fuck.
That’s one of my problems with it too. Of course that could change…but this game will still likely be 30 FPS so it’ll be slow anyway. lol Ninja Theory.
It’s because most of the enemies shown there are just standing around minding their own business meanwhile this dude just pops in and is like “Check out my movess guys, do you want to touch me?!”
In order for gunfu to actually look cool, there has to be attack dodging and deflecting otherwise it just looks like some asshole doing poses which is what we get here. If these guys can’t even figure that out than IDK what to tell ya’ll.
