You didn’t miss much.
You didn’t miss much. Any semblence of a good story was completely wiped out by that ending. All this hype up by Capcom’s PR saying NT is great at telling stories is a complete and utter joke. Before anyone has the gall to say DMC’s previous stories weren’t that good either, you’re missing the entire point. Capcom pretty much hyped up NT as great story tellers (NT hyped themselves up as well), and what we’re left with is a pile of garbage. Nothing about the story is original, the final scenes are written horribly, and the characters are a joke. To be honest, I wonder where NT was originally going with the plot in the first trailer, although maybe this was all planned from the start. I don’t know. All I have to say to Capcom and NT is: FUCK YOU!
You know what’s kind of funny too… In that last scene, Vergil was kind of right. They freed humanity from Mundus, but then Dante was like “nah nigga just let anarchy reign over the world”. Vergil was like wtf they need a leader; I’ll do it and guide them not control them. And then Dante was still like nah nigga we fightan now. FIGHT. TEH END.
Shakespearean.
“The world is under my protection, now.”
“You are Dante; no more, no less…”
…woooooooooooooooooooooooooooow…
He is way less than Dante I can tell you that.
He is more than Dante, he is Donte the demon killer.

Gameplay looks boring, bosses uninteresting, story is average at best.
Thanks Capcom/NT, I’ll be keeping my money though. Hoping for a huge flop so that they can rethink what makes great games, then get back to doing that. Two big, well known, amazing franchises hitting damn near rock bottom.(RE6, and DmC, although DmC will be just as passable as RE6 was, still both are really lackluster from a company we’ve come to expect more from)
You know, I’m able to watch a lot of fucked up shit, but for some reason I actually felt nauseous from seeing the boss battle with that big puking caterpillar thing. Like at first, I watched it and just thought it was kind of funny, but then it started to legitimately gross me out.
Isn’t that weird?
Was NT trying to pull an M. Night Shylaman with the way that played out?
My thoughts on the ending
Spoiler
I mean, anyone who is akin to the franchise could have seen this coming, however I think it is the way it was executed. If that happened in a future game, it may have been a little easier to swallow. With all praise by Capcom stating that NT has great story telling, any of the resolution of the conflict between Dante and Mundus is completely wasted in playing through the title. Vergil in this regard is more like a bonus battle than an actual final boss
Someone spoiled the ending to The Usual Suspects. I watched it anyway and it is (to me) the one time in life where it was ok to entertained for a somewhat lengthy period, be explicitly lied to, and still felt like a rewarding experience
I doubt this $60 release will provide the same level of enjoyment post credits. Not because of who it final boss is, but the motivation for his goals (as well as alliance) is completely unrelated to the main villain you’ve been battling for 6+ hours prior.

The guy’s channel has a lot of leaked footage. Audio’s f**ked though. There’s no BGM and sound effects.

Apparently these are unlockables and the PC Pre order thing is just an early access code?
The one on the right looks decent. :tup:
What the…? That’s a DMC3 skin right there…
The DMC3 skin is probably gonna look pretty sweet in-game.
Lock this thread. No reason to talk about this game anymore. Metal Gear Rising is right around the corner.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Anyone who buys this piece of shit new or even used is an imbecile. If you really feel the need to waste $60, I’ll give you my paypal email.
lmao fuck you ninja theory

I highly doubt any of the dmc defenders here are going to purchase the game at lunch, whereas on the rising thread you hear people preordering and even taking the 150 collectors edition all the time, makes me wonder who are the real fanboys again?!

What’s up with the sound of these videos?
Only thing to me was the language. It’s like the F-BOMB is supposed to ignite all awesomeness.
