Devil May Cry Producer Wants Dante to be Middle-Aged Hero on an Indiana Jones Adventure

They just don't know how character development works do they?
This might sound egotistical, but I, and some other writers here, can definitely write Dante better than any of them ever could.

Well, considering how the series ended up so far, this might be Capcom's best idea yet.
It'll be funny since since DMC3-DMC4-DmC was trying to make him youth friendly so it would a nice change of pace but isnt that what we got DMC2 since he could have been in his forties?
Plus with the inclusion of Nero in the old franchise there isn't a reason why we couldn't follow Dante in the later stages of his life. Then again would Dante suffer from old age? for all we know they could keep him eternally youthful.
just sayin

Wow...that's all I gotta say. nDante in his 40's and 50's seems...way too far off. Like at least his early 30s would've been better. 40 and 50 is WAAAY too far and puts too much space in between the first DmC and a sequel.
Like seriously Capcom? You ****ed up your Devil May Cry with too far time skips, please don't drag DmC into your mud.

40-50 year-old New Dante? No way...we just got introduced to the dude. We just witnessed his growth at the end of DmC. It's time to see him get the same progression that the Old Dante got from game to game, except with some level of consistency to show how he's maturing as a Devil Hunter. I mean, I thought the whole point of DmC was to show a younger and less experienced Dante...wouldn't a sequel show him in his mid-20's, with just a little more maturity?
Now, a 40-50's Old Dante? I'd be more than down with that. Maybe we'd finally get to see the character mature a bit. I doubt it, since the fanbase apparently reaches new levels of ecstasy while watching him act like a hyperactive man-child, but seeing him get some much-needed age and wisdom is exactly what the Old Dante needs. They kind of took baby steps towards that in DMC4, with Dante showing signs of a mentor-like character for Nero with his own share of veteran wisdom...but that was quickly undermined with the writer's attempt to make him "eccentric and fun-loving." :vomit:

People rag on the latest version of Dante for being juvenile, but the only version of Dante they like is the one that's about as juvenile as a 12 year old high on pixie stix.
...or this one, who's essentially a popped-collar fraternity doucheclown with a K-Pop Singer's taste in hairstyle, and an edge-lord's taste in clothing.
Oh no, he's far less juvenile. :shifty:
Isn't Dante in DmC actually supposed to already be in his mid-twenties?
Also, I don't entirely see what you mean about the Lucifer cutscene.
In what way?
Huh? I don't understand. It's just semi-long combed down white hair, a fairly nondescript pair of pants and boots, and the red jacket with attached holster.
So...they splitted fanbase with reboot, now they gonna split reboot fanbase in 2 with this?...I'm not entirely sure what exactly they are thinking.
They're not thinking. They haven't been thinking when it comes to the series for years - and yes, I'm talking pre-reboot.
1 Producer wants him to crossover with Bayonetta, another wants him to be a middle aged version of Indiana Jones, can we expect a 3rd Producer "wanting" Dante to be a cyborg in space fighting zombie dinosaurs in the next few days?
Another thing to take from this is a lot of people at Capcom are still "wanting" Devil May Cry, could be good news or bad news.

It's all the same producer, just different parts of the interview they are analyzing.
I wouldn't mind Dante in space, but I'd scream bloody murder if they made him a cyborg, cause it would be totally not Dante.

No DMC3 Dante was the anime style of cool, which is just all about taste. Personally I warmed up to DMC3 Dante about as much as I warmed up to anime cliches of what's cool...not by much but, meh, he does cool flips and **** so I don't mind it anymore.
I tried real hard to watch that scene again without cringing. It's not...horrible like I remembered, but I just don't like it as much. Plus he sounds like he has asthma throughout the entire game.
