I have my reservations with that guy as well. As
someone else pointed to me before his works pretty much consist of dark and edgy and DMC is not that. If any knows the story of what got me into DMC they'll know that that is
exactly what I loved about DMC, that it wasn't that, so when all you do is this I tend to bite my nails in nervousness.
That's a bit harsh. There are a lot of good things about the show, though it does get a bit trigger happy with the blood and gore and there are some less than poignant aspects. There were some definite highlights, even if you had to sit through a lot of pointlessness.
Well, that in itself is not exactly a good point of debate since
no one in any form of entertainment talks like people do in real life because dramatic arts require a more theatrical presentation, but I do agree that the dialogue was not particularly appealing. It was rather sloppy at parts so I agree that that wasn't the shows strongest point. I could go into more detail on this but let's just say I agree that the dialogue wasn't good but not for that reason.
I don't either but if you didn't like the Berserker anime from a few years ago then you can blame the director of both since it seems like he stepped on it with that franchise, too.
I also agree but, again, not for the same reasons. I've stated my concerns before and I think that Castlevania was good. Very flawed but ultimately good. I especially liked the final fight and how it all turned out. But I also don't think that this is the kind of storytelling that would fit with DMC. I also don't want a shared universe for these properties. I debated against it for DMC and Bayonetta so I most definitely don't want it for DMC and Castlevania. So it's not the quality I have an issue against, though I don't particularly think it was the greatest, rather that it qualifies as good and when the rest is pretty much all garbage good enough feels like pure platinum, it's the incompatibility that has me concerned.
What am I listening to?
