Disappointing DT?

Its funny because all the DTs changed overall in design making them look almost nothing alike over time. His DT in one was 2 things but ultimatly looked very insect like. 2 and 4 look more alike but 4 has the strange face plate over his eyes and no wings. 3 ok lets get this straight I enjoyed 3 for all it was but besides what I hate now the designs for DT in that game do not match at all. This is due in part to shin megamis cameo of dante (from 2) in his game. So they let him design the DT for 3 which while on there own look nice they really dont match DMC3s artstyle or anything imo.

As for DmC hes learning about his heritage in DmCs universe and gains his strength so I dont believe that its his final form.
True. I love the DMC4 devil trigger because he has power glowing from his chest. Much like Ganon in TP.
Vergils Devil Trigger I was never really a fan of. The design just.....eh.

I generally dislike Vergil's design in DMC3. But yeah, the DMC3 DT's look rather strange. I prefer the more original demonic looking DT's. Not much for the insectoid design.

VW, you have strong opinions and you hold on to them. I can respect that. But why the unnecessary name-calling and the degrading comments?

Passive Aggressive the game.

I think we can all agree that this DT just seems like a baby step towards something else... hopefully.

They can if they wanna, i'm still going to standby what i've said.
In the original DevilMayCry the characters Dante, Vergil, Trish, Nero, & so-on came across as much more than human.
Here Cosplay Dante, CosplayVergil & so-on seem only slightly above human.
Therefore anything really demonic, angelic or mix of the two would seem far to overpowered for this character & game, so i'd save it for an over the top DevilMayCry 5.

I think of EmoMayCry's characters as your character in DarkSouls/Demon'Souls, Dante's inferno.
An average human with slightly above average abilities taking on very powerful creatures.
A God like devil trigger wouldn't fit well into it.

Emo May Cry? Are we still saying this even though there is not one single spec of the emo trend in this game? Never mind dont answer that I know where that answers gonna go. Especially with your talk of "real dmcs and over the top"

These characters still arent human at all. Vergil and Dante are both 2 characters from demonic and angelic bloodlines making them powerful in there own right. So saying slightly above human makes no sense. Also have you not read up on anything? Seeing as how the DT in this game is still all of dantes demonic power flowing from him. Hes gaining all of his demonic and angelic heritage from his bloodline. Unlocking alot of untapped power. Something DMC 3 dante did once his blood and rage were infused with rebellion awakening his devil power.

Darksouls and so on you were a hollow/undead human but all in all you gained strength from the souls of various things youve killed making you stronger than any human in general. Dantes inferno is the same thing a soul who gained powers from other souls so your comparison makes no sense. Especially with two of my other favorite games so saying "slightly above average abilities" makes not one lick of sense.

Just imagine this. In DMC 2 dante is still half human but is one of the most powerful beings in his realm. Even with his 2nd DT out of desperation. So if thats powerful just look at DmCs Dante and how at this young age his so strong when in his state creatures cant move simply because of the power he has.


Also all the hentai in your sig caught me off guard what with all the huge boobed women impossible clothing and queens blade..

I dislike the abbreviation in it's titles, like they're too lazy to come up with a decent subtitle to really make it it's own & too lazy to spell it out.

2. They're named after the originals but not as interesting, or appealing to me. And nowhere near as powerful.
They look as humans pretending to be much more than they are while worshipping the originals.
They cosplay as tribute to them lol.

CosplayDante looks like a depressed softcore punk musician that sits in dark corners & cuts himself just to feel pain when he's not playing guitar alone in the dark.
EmoMayCry.

That's rather narrowminded of you and a shallow observation you're making there. So it is not what you like, but that doesn't mean you should look down on it and make up silly names to degrade it. Hopefully you're better than that.

Definitely agreeing with the view that DmC's DT is merely a baby step to Dante's greater power. He's belived himself human for a long time, and when his power is just starting to bleed out, he's got a ways to go to develope it.

And hopefully your better than taking offence for something that's not targeted at you.

I'm not taking offence, I just want people to get along here and I know from experience that people making degrading comments about something they don't like in front of people who do like it usually ends up in flamewars. Show respect and you will gain respect. ^^

I'd save anything good for a Real DevilMayCry title, not this.

For the first time I played Devil May Cry 1 recently. Do you want to know what I thought about it, from someone who never played the originals before?

It felt like playing DmC like I did in the demo, but in an Resident Evil setting, with a hint of Clock Tower 3 (the locked doors). Far as I'm concerned after my little trip into that game, DmC IS Devil May Cry. There's no true game, and no true fans. That sort of talk is meaningless. And I can't help questioning in deep frustration why many like yourselves must spill rage on DmC, when as far as gameplay goes, it's being true to it.

Stop being judgemental about a game because the protagonist is being built from the ground up. Just because DMC3 Dante was already set in his ways with what he wanted to do, doesn't mean this version of Dante has to be that way straight away too. Or have you never heard of the words 'character development'.

*gasp* you've played Clock tower 3?! have you played Haunting grounds, Demento?

Yes =D I nearly completed the whole game the first time I got it. I still have it now. And I love Haunting Ground! The gameplay for that was enjoyable. I've replayed it a whole bunch of times.

Haunting grounds is one of my favorite survival horror games by capcom! its cool that it was a build for RE4 and was originally going to be Clock tower 4 :D im a HUGE survival horror fan i've nearly collected all of the main ones people have heard of and trying to get all the underrated ones

be loyal to what matters
I agree with Vampirewicked on the whole abbreviations thing as it feels lazy and uninspired.

on topic- I do think his new DT is not as cool as the others but I have more of a problem with the idea that we need this big explanation as to why he has white hair.

Alittleacorn you just reminded me of all the hours I wasted playing demo cds back when I had a ps1 and ps2. While playing the Ps2 demo of shinobi all day. Then the first time I played DMC and Castlevania LOI.

Thanks :p

It was a build for Resident Evil 4? o.o I knew about it originally being a Clock Tower game but not that =D

And I'm only played the third Clock Tower game, I'm not sure if the earlier ones came out over here or not.

i know that 1 and 2 did but im don't think first fear did which is basically the one i want because its 2D instead of 3D and no terrible voice actors im also wondering when remothered will come out :/

That was the direction NT wanted to take though. As you put Dante, Vergil, Trish and friends all had that ....out of reality touch. This new DmC has real world themes within it that we, as humans in todays society, can relate.

It's not supposed to be a cosplay Dante but a "what if Dante was the son of an Angel and Demon but living in a cosmopolitan city in a crap-shack wearing vest and jeans with a coat"? He is someone you could find out on the street. Compared to Vergil who has the upper-class look who is well mannered and presents himself with class. This works with the current theme of the game; that we have been enslaved by bankers and are constantly being surveilled by cameras. Vergil and The Order is clearly on the same level of Anonymous. I'm sure that's what everyone was thinking when they saw that trailer and heard that dialogue. It's a more ground-in-reality type game that we can relate but again is also DMC by having demons with chainsaws come after you. Having DmCs theme with happy-people like DMC4 wouldn't fit. So you have to create characters that reflect the situation. Vergil being the one to address the corruption and Dante being the little guy being called a terrorist.

That's just how I see it. Far from EmoMayCry but this is a reboot to be viewed from a "What-if" angle, rather than "this is the next step". The entire DMC(1-4) series in general is a "what-if" scenario of Dante Aligheris 'A Divine Comedy'
Capcom: What is we took the names of Dante, Vergil, Nelo Angelo etc and made them into badarse dudes with hair, swift attacks and stylish moves?
NT: What if we took the names of Dante, Vergil and Mundus but modernised A Divine Comedy/DMC to reflect our own society?
VisceralGames: What if we took Dante and have him kill Death(I know...). Virgil is who guides and narrates the story while Dante is saving Beatrice from Lucifer
Having said that, this is still a DMC game and we should have some of the leftovers like taunting. The main point of DMC is the combat, but NT have given us a story that we can actually get invested in. I don't think it's right that combat has been watered down but in the area that lacks it's been made up for in story. DmC still has a lot of potential on release with the weapons and new tech we'll all find.

Edit: Oh and damn right about stating your point regardless of who gets offended, geez.
