I agree about not adding Sparda. It would only complicate the messed up timeline anyways within the series. IF the game is based on "what fans want" then be prepared to possibly see that Nero makes it somewhere and dies...then poof, out comes Vergil in a blaze of glory. In all reality, hints that he's still alive in Nero somehow is enough. His "soul" resisdes in Yamato and guides Nero, possibly later in the DMC series, it corrupts him because the thirst for power dives too deep in the kid's soul to handle. Or that the Blade "talks" to him through his dreams and has flashbacks of Vergil as a child up to the tower incident. Wanting answers he goes to Dante...
Killing him off wouldn't be logical in Capcom's favour, now that we're curious to his past. It would result in a lot of angry fans...not to mention, now that Capcom introduced him they have lots of blanks to fill in with that kiddo. They can play off of the fact that he accepted he has sparta's blood, 1/4 or 3/4 demon whatever...they can play up his past in flashbacks as he travels somewhere with Dante or when he's on a mission from an anonymous tip.
The choices are almost endless...all in all, if Capcom decides to play God and bring Vergil back, it'd better be for a really damn good reason so it can satisfy most players. Sparda for no reason should appear...unless in a flashback, even then I don't know. STAY A LEGEND.
Edit: I 100% agree with LordOfDarkness...a game is meant to be fun, not to be argued to death about who's next to steal the spotlight. But you can't help the "what-ifs" after the game is finished. I'm certainly the same way, give me a good game and a controller and I'm all set. All in all, you said it yourself...prepare yourself for the better or the worst.
