Traiding places DMC and DmC

[Vezild]

I think DmC is just a full out reboot/prequel...as in the first game in a series both chronologically and literally. xD

 

[DragonMaster2010]

i believe DmC is a sort of semi-prequel. DmC may mean "origin".

It's a reboot of the series so it's a prequel to the beginning of DmC in a better order then

^ I think DMC4 and its light novel take up the same space as they are telling the same story.

But overall, I agree with Vezlid on this being a complete reboot because its suits the game better.

i think NT would have still been under the same amount of scrutiny had they did try to fix the old series, contiunity wise.

Yeah, But DMC4 talks about events before the game too, like how Nero got his arm. Also, was Dante anywhere in that light novel?

Well it is telling the same story, just adding more details that they didnt out in the game for whatever reason.

there are two volumes, i think he is in the second one.

So, the fans say "Dante doesn't do this... And, he doesn't do that!" What does he do?

Why do gamers like him? I always imagined a crazy party guy. Parties don't get crazy with sober abstinence.

Let's see. He seems like an tightwad nerd geek who sits on ass at home surrounded by all his weird collectables, doesn't get laid despite meeting hot women constantly, wears the same clothes every day and never goes out except for work. The only time he gets off his junk food, pizza scarfing, virgin ass is to play Devil May Cry...

Oh. I see now.

Excuse me, you forget that most of the women he does meet have tried to kill him on more than one occasion. Pizza is every cool guys favorite snack, just ask the Ninja Turtles. Red is a personification of him as Blue is for Vergil and Purple for Sparda, it's just a motif. And if you don't think having a wall of demons you killed and Devil Arms you once used is uncool or lame, etc., then you obviously don't know what it means to be a Bad@$$ .

Basically, the reason people like him is not because he's some cool version of the average geek, but because he's just outright awesome. Asking why people like him is the same question as why do people like Batman? He doesn't do anything but go out at night wearing tights with some little kid he picked up from the circus.

i think NT would have still been under the same amount of scrutiny had they did try to fix the old series, contiunity wise.

Not really, they would've been praised for it, if not anything else. The fact is that DMC is great when you take the games individually, but it's horrid as a franchise. Both NT and Capcom would've received much love if they decided to fix the series.

Lucia didn't try to kill him, yet he didn't score with her.(Of course one can not simply score while the door to the demon world is open...AGAIN!) Pizza is NOT every cool guys favorite snack. Izaya Orihara likes fatty tuna. ^_^ The reason Dante is red and Vergil is blue is because if you split purple apart you grt red and blue. Red meaning hot-headed, blue meaning cool. You don't either since you're not Bad@$$ at all. (Neither am I):troll:

That doesn't make sense. You say people don't like him because he's a cool geek, but beccause he's awesome? So are you insinuating he's NOT cool? Plus Dante's not a geek, he's just a lasy Hikikomori who doesn't leave his office unless it has something to do with his job, or to eat pizza with a strawberry sundae.:troll:

Dito.

 

[Awake]

People like The OG Dante because he has something anyone can relate to...being half HUMAN and half demon...he will never be a full human because he is part demon..unlike Dante in DmC....half angel half demon....wadufuk!!!!

So because he's half human, I relate to him? So does that mean that I too, am a demon hybreed and kill demons? I want my name to be something threatening to demons but still attractive to the ladies...Keith. Because it's smooth...like Kieth stone.

ALWAYS

 

[berto]

Dante, in all his incarnation, has never been a character I can relat to. I keep saying that been relatable does not equate to likable nor is it a requirement of it.

 

[Railazel]

Dito.

1. You just repeated what I said about him wearing Red.
2. Izaya Orihara isn't cool, just a jerk to everybody around him (I really don't like the guy).
3. Lucia tried to kill him after she figured out she was Arius' creation in the hopes that he might kill her. So yeah... Dante has bad luck with hot women. Oddly enough, girls like Patty seem to stick around him like glue.
4. No, he isn't cool, he's outright awesome!
5. What the heck is a hikikomori?
6. I know what it means to be Bad@$$. It's quite simple: Do something nearly impossible that no other human being has any chance of doing, no matter how much luck they have, and you are an instant Bad@$$.

 

[Sieghart]

5. What the heck is a hikikomori?

Hikikomori - Literally means "Shut in" or no social life whatsoever.

That's nothing wrong. He doesn't have a normal human life. He goes out to hunt demons down (original DMC) or demons are hunting him (DmC). I didn't see him meeting many hot women indeed: Lady (simple friendship, business partner and collects debts only; is she hot, i doubt), Trish (she is a demon and look like his mother, business partner, and occasionally disappears; is she hot? i doubt ? and she has an ancestral face), Lucia (his employer; is she hot, i doubt?), Kyrie (Nero's girlfriend; is she hot? definitely not!) and who else? That's his circle. And....his virgin ass is saved for Vergil (was he the only significant other of Dante, right?):devil:

 

[sylvanas]

no no no i mean in dmc3, i don't believe there are any beer cans laying around or anything of the sort in dmc3 that i can remember

well he did walk into a bar in one of the missions, who's to say he didn't sneak in a little? XD

 

[DragonMaster2010]

1. You just repeated what I said about him wearing Red.
Son of a bitch, I did...my bad>_<

2. Izaya Orihara isn't cool, just a jerk to everybody around him (I really don't like the guy).
That's why he's cool.^_^ He's the person everybody likes to hate.

3. Lucia tried to kill him after she figured out she was Arius' creation in the hopes that he might kill her. So yeah... Dante has bad luck with hot women. Oddly enough, girls like Patty seem to stick around him like glue.
She already said she was created by Arius after Dante saved her the first time in the main building (The next mission after you fight Arius.)

4. No, he isn't cool, he's outright awesome!
Thanks for clearing that up for me.

5. What the heck is a hikikomori?
A shut in. Dante sits in his office all day, reading magazines and eating pizza. I guess because of his job or his demonic carbs, he doesn't get fat, but Trish says it's bad for him. He only goes out unless to eat strawberry sundaes or to do his job. That's why I call him a hikikomori or atleast a half-Hikikomori (See what I did there? HALF Hikikomori, HALF breed?:troll

6. I know what it means to be Bad@$$. It's quite simple: Do something nearly impossible that no other human being has any chance of doing, no matter how much luck they have, and you are an instant Bad@$$.

There really is no definition to the word bad ass, it's just used to diferenciate someone from another. There's no real meaning to the word really. Also you said "Human", Dante's a half-breed, so it doesn't really apply to him.

 

[Railazel]

There really is no definition to the word bad ass, it's just used to diferenciate someone from another. There's no real meaning to the word really.

Actually, there is. Dante would fit in the second definition, though not really intimidating.

 

[Angsty Panda]

I'm not worried about the way new Dante looks, just as long as the game has pizza, strawberry sundaes, and demons getting their asses kicked, I'll be a fan of DmC.

None of the games have strawberry sundaes... That would be stupidly childish.

The anime does.
