Though the ideas have been on the horizon about a possible DMC 5, I thought I would share a few thoughts in regards to some of the members with the support. We, the community have come far and wide with possible hopes of the continuation of the original series, while others are afraid of such, there are indeed members who still hope for a possible comeback. I for one am one of those people. If Capcom will take the time and effort into making a DMC 5, I for one feels it will be epic, afar from the story having it's issues. Here is a taste of what the community has in store.
I for one have a few, thus if the story must be around Nero finding his origins and Dante learning more about himself, I believe Vergil should make a return, giving his side of the story, thus wrapping up in detail about every character, their origins and backgrounds and their reason for being there. The main antagonist would be Mundus of course. Three bloods of Sparda taking down the big guy one last time, finally putting him out. Sparda would be introduced in this, reason being since Sparda is dead, I'm sure there would be a way to have his return but fighting against Dante, Vergil and Nero (once each character, or a hidden boss) (kinda like in Naruto with the Impure World Reincarnation Jutsu), Nero finally finishing off Sparda while Sparda gives his side of the story.
Vergil will explain his reason for being gone all this time but be changed in a way to fight for the right reason but keeping his cool, calm, collective self.
Feel free to add to the thread for possible ideas. If Capcom is to learn from NT on stories then why not use some fans based stuff to make it alittle easier to see what fans want.
No fighting allowed or stupid reasons to start anything. This will be a clean discussion regarding the thoughts of a possible DMC 5, if you don't have anything nice to say then stay out.
I would like to say, its not hard to think of a great story, you just need to actually sit down and figure out where it stands and work out the kinks and flaws it had to offer. TWOxACROSS has a great point for where the story could possibly go, I like the idea while others are welcomed with open arms to throw in their ideas. Others in the thread have also mentioned great ideas that would be great to add to the story.I think I've mentioned it before, and I don't have too much in my head right now, other than some basic points, but here goes...
DMC5 should be a total nod to the series as a whole, and possibly the best way to let it go out with a bang. It should have two full sides, a la DMC2 (not DMC4). According to the Bingo's novelization of DMC4, after the events of the game, Nero started his own Devil May Cry to hunt for demons, but DMC5 should focus on actually telling us about Nero's origins, and thus most of Nero's side should comprise him searching for information on his origins, and ultimately learning how he's connected to Sparda. In the process of this, he would learn of inklings that the demon king Mundus is mounting a revival in Hell, which her learns of because he holds the true key to the demon world; Yamato, which demons have begun to seek out. This is all happening around the time that Dante is fighting Arius's forces in DMC2. Requiring some much needed help, Nero seeks out Dante, only to find Lucia waiting for his return, and here, Nero learns that Dante hasn't been seen for a while after he went to Hell - Nero knows what he's going to have to do...
On Dante's side, we've last seen him in DMC2's ending driving around Hell in a motorcycle, popping sweet wheelies into the sunset. Stuck in Hell, he's forced to fight off the demons that are still around, and in the process he is shown much of his past. The demons will pull at his memories, showing him things that players haven't known about, fleshing out Dante's character more, and even trying to explain his shift in mood between DMC4 and DMC2. Levels will be comprised of new places, as well as some old favorites as nods to his past exploits, like portions of Temen-ni-Gru and the castle on Mallet Island. We'll also get to hear more about a shifting leadership among the forces of Hell, as some demons who were sympathetic to Sparda have finally been able to stand up since Mundus was no longer around to silence them. So, Dante's story is comprised of his memories, learning more about himself, Sparda's legacy, and helping a sympathetic demon army rise against Mundus' remaining forces that are attempting to revive him. It ends up sort of like a reversal on the war for the throne we all know that got Lucifer and his followers cast out of heaven.
In the end, both sides culminate in Nero using Yamato's power to break open a seal to Hell, arriving fashionably on time to help Dante in the main assault against Mundus' forces. In the end, we've got Dante and Nero fighting against the newly revived Mundus, putting him down for good, and ending the series on a high note, where we know everything, and people can go out knowing they just experienced one of the craziest DMCs ever, and then go even crazier in Bloody Palace as Dante or Nero, or both in a co-op mode.
Gameplay features...I haven't thought of yet, but ChaserTech had some great ideas on that frontI do think they should keep something similar to DmC for some of the controls, which...is really just making Dante play a little more like Nero, so that Aerial Rave and such are all on the same button
