devil may cry is like religion and dante is god. think of how many different versions of the "god concept" humanity has had over the eons. there is no "real" version of dante. the character, just like any other, is left up to the mercy of the eyes of the beholder. the fans. we can pick and choose which version of dante is our ideal incarnation or not. fighting over it just leads to war, violence and genocide--sorry, i'm talking about dante, not religion. but you see: same concept. dante is a character that has been around for two generations. in those two, he has had 4 different interpretations from 3 different people. the first was one way, the second was similar but darker, the third was a different person entirely, the only similarity is the name and jacket. the fourth was a hybrid of the past three, with his own design and aura. much like the concept of religion. you can pick one that makes you feel most comfortable, but in the end, i won't always see things the way you seem them. so trying to convince me otherwise or putting down MY views of the character will lead to nothing but violence and a bad end.

how sad? the intent was to show that everybody has their own vison of the character so fighting over which is "better" or a "disgrace" to the series is futile

It's sad that there is a need for a thread like this at all. Takes me back to the 'dark ages' where threads exactly like this one popped up all over the boards because members felt like they had to somehow justify their likes/dislikes.

"Real" Dante?

The very first Devil May Cry made by Team Little Devils!! He is the foundation and base of the "Dante"s that come after him!

I know, right?

But most people seem to forget about him! They favor DMC3 and DMC4 Dante!

Well, people associate those games more than the original with the name of DMC so those renditions are the ones that come to mind. They play those more. Personally I think it's a shame since the original if my favorite version of Dante, I find it superior in most ways that count.

That would be like supporting the reboot and disregarding the "original"...

Sad many don't like DMC1 Dante so much...

In the end, there is no real Dante. Each Dante was a different interpretation of Dante, so in actuallity, there is no actual Dante that can be called real.

Now deal the fk with it and stop having foggy talk about "There is no real Dante".
There bloody hell is.

It is why we say dmc2 Dante was out of character. Because unlike dmc1 Dante (real Dante), he was very silent. Where as real Dante is complete opposite.

the real Dante is in your heart
Yes and no.

People will have whatever character they like most in their heart. So this is a logic that doesn't work.

Because we ask "Whos the real Dante", not "Who do i like most?".

Only that! But after him, I don't think there is anymore! He just gets interpreted differently...

And as what the Assassins' Maxim always says:

Nothing is true; everything is permitted

Maxim? Don't you mean Ezio?

Not the character. The maxim of the Assassins is what I said:
Nothing is true; everything is permitted.

The way I interpret it is what you said here:
In the end, there is no real Dante. Each Dante was a different interpretation of Dante, so in actuallity, there is no actual Dante that can be called real.

Nothing is true = There is no real Dante
Everything is permitted = Each Dante was a different interpretation of Dante, so in actuallity, there is no actual Dante that can be called real.

Get it?
