Okay we all know that Dante was supposed to be a total outcast who then started to grow into the shoes of classic Dante. Does anyone else see something similar happening with Vergil? I mean not him turning evil... ( that part was obvious ). But , his behaviour towards humans... His cold hearted attitude.

Like everyone claimed, Vergil in this incarnation was completely different. Some even went on to call him a wuss. he leads the order and works around with people. But by the end , we see that vergil is all on his own. He feels betrayed by his "comrades". This angers him and he decides to always work alone. This falls in line with classic Vergil who preferred to remain alone and only collaborated with people who could be of use (Arkham). In his mind Dante has betrayed him. This fact keeps burning into him as he begins to hate his brother. Slowly due to all the wrath, he succumbs to his demonic side and starts to embrace it. He then believes that it's pointless to fight for the humans and the demon blood runs far too deep within.

And hence, Classic Vergil comes into play . ( With more backstory this time round)

I gotta agree, NT gave us a pretty good backstory for DMC3 XD

They gave us a reason why the world could be randomly overrun by demons and towers come out of the ground (since Limbo collapsed with the human world). Why Vergil and Dante don't get along too well. And finally, they gave Vergil some reason to want power as opposed to just wanting it for the sake of having it.

If anything, here are some of the things that definitely make this a different universe/storyline: Dante didn't know about Mundus in DMC1 and he beat the crap out of him already in DmC. Kat being a good friend of Dante, but she's a new character, never mentioned in the other games. Dante not being half-human anymore, obviously.

I can definitely see DmC2 turning out to be a pretty legit remake of DMC3.
