About that gameplay vid: did you see how many enemies Dante was fighting? Every time it was a total of four enemies wandering around the streets. Dante hacking away at what would have been the most monotonous enemies in other games.
Also all that hacking n slashing looked really easy to me. In previous games you had to work for that rating and the monotonous enemies were dead in a small combo. The enemies you could make those long big combos on were usually strong or you had to defeat a lot of enemies in a row to make it 'Stylish". That was part of the challenge and made combos harder and therefore really satisfying.
My guess? Ninja Theory lets you do some easy hacking n slashing to make it look flashy. In the other DMC games we had to work for that though.
It’s gonna take a “Just kidding here’s the REAL DMC5 developed by Platinum Games”-factor for me.
Movement creates anti-movement so criticizing it meant people critizing you for critizing it.
By now suspect a lot of emo teenagers who are unsure about their sexual preference will buy this game just to make a point or something.
At the same time Capcom unintentionally created an incentive to buy HD collection for Dante fans and people who like(d) Devil May Cry series.
I’m definitely buying the HD collection, cherishing whatever is left of DMC.
The “new” design of Dante is really just about one mans ego and wanting people to look like him. The guy is a huge fucking egotist.

Annoyed people are still saying fans were upset with the change of appearance. I was way more annoyed when I saw Ninja Theory was working on it.
tl;dr platforming
I’m loling at Dante being between the world of the living and spirits and someone able to see into that realm. Sounds like Bayonetta. inb4 Dante finds out the girl is actually him. Amnesia is a hell of a plot twist.
I really don’t see how that reporter thinks DmC looks as fast or faster than previous DMC games. Dude even admitted he never was into action games before Bayonetta, what the hell does he know about action game flow lol
I am trying my damnedest to not judge this game before I play it, but some of what these people are saying is just really ignorant. It actually makes me want to hate on the game more than I really do
Really hoping the trailers are just deceptively average looking.
I loved the title of this small news piece.
Spoiler
Capcom: ‘New Dante Is A Lot Like Young People Today: No Prospects’
Since when the fuck is Dante angry at the world? Not even in DMC3 was he Angry at the world and that’s the game he’s the most aggressive in. Fucking shit, they just don’t get it at all.

Even in that 1 minute, I got tired of all the cyclical looking slashes.
probably because in that 1 minute trailer there was really only 2 things that were different from the usual 3 hit slash combo.
Why is it still being called a prequel when this dante is half angel?
Watch this piece of shit be released to mass critical acclaim. I seriously wouldn’t doubt it. Alot of journalists seem to have kind of a thing against people they perceive as “L0L FANBOIS” (in this case anyone who thinks this game looks like garbage. Because it does). So I wouldn’t be surprised to see alot of reviews praise the game as some monumental leap forward for the series even if “you fanboys can’t handle change”. That, and there’s so much hate for the Japanese games industry these days, alot of game journalists probably feel that this is a step in the right direction by default just because a western development team is behind it. :tdown:

30 FPS second can’t be totally bad right? I mean Bayo on PS3 was 30 FPS and that was still an awesome game.
is at the bargaining stage of grief
I’m just waiting for Bayo 2 at this point. DmC news is just hilarious to hear and watch as capcom and Ninja Theory (Mainly NT) try to salvage what they do with their already pissed fans.
Capcom can’t seem to please their fans these days.
Only because of the questionable things they have been doing lately. DmC, MMU and MML3 being cancelled, the RE 3DS save file issue, and probably some other stuff I’m forgetting.
SSF4/AE/2012, MvC3/Ultimate 9 months later…no Megaman appearance in Marvel 3…it just builds up for fanboys and serious fans.
Bayonetta was 60 fps with frame drops at points (more of them on PS3 but not very bad there either.)

Kamiya himself said PS3 Bayo was 30 FPS in a tweet. I’m just going to ask him again because this dude tweets all day.
I’m pretty sure it’s not but I guess I could be wrong. i’m 99% sure I’m right tho. Sure doesn’t feel 30fps…
Well couple of quick google searches is netting me 60fps, and 30 on PS3 before the patch which fixed the frame rate and loading issues more or less.

That’s exactly what I thought
