All the fuss about DmC wouldn't be there if they just made this a Spin-off

Capcom should have made this DmC a spin-off not reboot

  • Yes that's safe-play they should have done that since they know DMC2 exists :D

Or gave it an alternate title other than "Devil may cry"
Or just gave this DanteX a name of his own because he has nothing to do with the iconic name he's having he is a newcomer just like nero

THEN i promise NO single person on earth would disagree on this reboot or NT or capcom or all the fuss from 2009-2012 :(
 
A spin-off still leaves hope for another game in the main continuity, while a reboot does not.
Devil May Cry 4 left fans with tons of questions that have never been answered, and a reboot is pretty much a kick in the balls for all those fans. A spin-off would be okay, because it still leaves the opportunity that there will be a DMC5 game coming soon, kinda like how the RE series has so many spin-offs yet the main continuity is still running, but a reboot is just annoying and pointless.

That's my opinion at least.
 
To be honest, i rather see it as a new Ip rather than a spinoff as it would have more creative freedom.

plus I dont really want a spinoff as it would just be capcom hopscothing across the timeline to avoid cleaning up the mess they made.

I rather see a dmc5 that tries to answer questions.
 
using the term spin-off instead of reboot wouldn't really change anything about what the game is but the term spin-off implies that they will immediately go back to the original continuity while the term reboot implies that all future Devil May Cry games will be in the new continuity. since a lot of Devil May Cry fans are hostile towards this game and many of the ones that support it would still prefer DMC5 the term spin-off would probably have resulted in less of a negative reaction but there the reaction would not completely go away.
 
wait Shouldn't this be in the DmC section?
anyway yeah i prefer this would be a new ip
 
I guess this is a spin off. And there's no telling what will become of DMC in the future. Would any of you have preferred NT continuing the canon from DMC2 with the same style as their using for DmC? I'm saying Dante with white hair, old rebellion and ebony and ivory, red jacket.

Nope. It's better that DMC dies than Tameem is given the chance to make it's sequels.

I rather want DMC key members to work on a sequel to DMC, not NT. That includes Hideki Kamiya.
 
This is too close to not be a devil may cry. If this wasn't Devil May Cry, it'd be called a complete rip-off of DMC.
 
Well what's the point of it?
The reboot is happening, and I am positive the game will rock in it's own way. You have 4 games to look back to, maybe we'll get our own series.
If you don't want Dante to change, look in the other direction and pretend this isn't happening, but I assure you, this thing is as real as it gets and trying to get along with that thought is really everything that is left to you.

I went to PG site and checked out "Jobs", here is what it says:
Love making games without making compromises? Do you aggressively seek originality where others seek to copy? Do you want to be inspired by the talented creators around you? If so, PlatinumGames is the place for you

That bolded line is great.

Anyhow i am not a Kamiya fanboy - i think he seems like a cool game designer.
And he has had a major role in Dante's and DMC's creation.
So he and other key members should be among the top priority designers to HAVE in team when your gonna make a DMC game.

I think its because kamiya has earned a lot Rep+ for himself by making some really awesome games unlike Ninja theory which needs to prove themselves ! but this is still not so "great" even though i am impressed to see some new melee moves and "Rising rainstorm" in the trailers but they still aren't enough to distinguished themselves from DMC4 its still the same ketchup in a new bottle with little bit of vinegar :P
 
P* is too cheesy for me. Every single one of there games never take themselves seriously. The only good thing about P* is the gameplay, because its always fast and hectic.

It's stupid, that I am forced to answer this now, or look like a hypocrite.
Let's see, for Bayo:
- Gameplay
- cheesy talk
- Mechanics
- Quicksilver
- OTT ( I say idiotic) "stylish" action
- sexual innuendo

for Rising:
- gameplay (as far as we can tell from the one trailer we've got)
- OTT "stylish" action
- cheesy talk
- can't really say more for now, but this should suffice.
