DmC 2 might not be from NT?

Adam D. Clark; he acted circles around everyone else. :ermm:

A shame no one even mentions him when praising DMC3. Goes to show that elitists almost always overlook good acting... even in the things they like. :/

And then say they can recognize good storytelling aspects. Ridiculous.

You mean Arkham, right? Good acting is subjective. Like of one actor's performance is not universal. I just happen to like Langdon best in DMC3. ^_^

I never said you weren't a good judge of acting. I was saying that they were.

And in your original post, you never mentioned RL's acting in the first place. I only brought it up because ADC needs more exposure due to his great acting.

Dante in DMC3? I thought that was Langdon? I didn't know he was in Street fighter. >_<

Sorry about that:blush:
And you're right that he does. I'm actually amazed he has that kind of voice range to be high pitched as Jester then all menacing as Arkham.

I love the 1st and 3rd games. They are a lot of fun to play and well made hack n slashers but I just don't care what they did to Dante. Dante in the 1st game was cocky but also more subtle. In 3 and 4 he was just this dude who spouted these really dumb one liners and quips that really weren't funny, just stupid. I don't really hate him per say, that's too strong a word but, I just don't find it entertaining. It's just stupid. Nothing more, nothing less.

Me too. I loved the atmosphere of DMC1, and the badassery of DMC3. Combine those, and wham. The result would be quite pleasing. I agree though. DMC1 Dante was a perfect mix of cocky and subtle. He only jokes when it's appropriate. He was mature, and I liked that. You have to remember though, DMC3 takes place ten years before the first game. So of course there's going to be a sense of immaturity in his character. He went from not giving a damn to becoming a selfless and hardened individual. To me, that's character development. Also, seeing as how Dante was pretty young in DMC3, his behavior seemed more acceptable.

Now, about DMC4 Dante, I understand where you're coming from. I didn't quite get how he went from a mature man (DMC1) back to a childlike persona. One of the reasons why I loved Dante in the first and third games was because his character oozed variety. You see Dante angry, sad, frustrated, etc. In DMC4, we don't get any of that. DMC3 Dante has more in common with DMC1 than you think. Just Saiyan. Mind you, I actually did enjoy his one liners in DMC3. They were clever.

He was Dante in 3. I just think the best Dante was from DMC 1.

But that doesn't make me a fan. Having my nostalgic heartstrings for the original inception of the character that started it all makes me less of a fan. I'm suppose to like the dorky unfunny try hard from DMC 3 and 4. Even though I still adored the 3rd game just as much as others in the series. Oh well.

That's a relief. I thought I'd got it wrong for a moment. :P

I know what you mean to be attached to the first. I like 3 best and then 1. Not sure why, I just do. As for 2...sometimes I forget about him>_< 4 was too much like a frat boy for my liking. :lol:

The only clever quip I actually liked from him was when he was mocking that giant demon dog about joining a dog show. That was actually rather clever and amusing. He also channeled Bruce before the fight. Everything else was pretty much a miss and came off more stupid than anything. Like remember the exchange with Agni and Rudra? I think it would have been better if Dante didn't say a word while they were arguing and maybe popped 2 shots off in their mouths.
 
Chibi Dante said:
Are you serious?

Well for me it was when I first saw DMC3.

Never seen so much arrogance and stupidity in one post. If DMC3 was uninteresting, why was it heralded as the best in the series?

That's opinion based. I still say DMC1 was the best, and so do others.

In DMC4, yeah, his character was lacking variety, but he was still endearing. I wanted DMC5 to return to the atmosphere of the first game while building upon DMC4's gameplay. I mean, you call yourself a veteran fan of DMC but I want to call BS so f*cking bad. You only like the first game, and hate everything else. You hate the characters, and gameplay is the only thing you care for. Hell you couldn't even get info on DMC4's gameplay right. People didn't become fans of DMC for JUST the gameplay. Story and characters played a big part in it too. Otherwise we wouldn't have DMC cosplayers, and DMC fanart.

Some actually did get into DMC for gameplay, but still don't like the characters or story. That's not unheard of. Yes there are obviously people who love DMC wholefully, but there are those who just liked gameplay and that's it.

I wouldn't call you a veteran. Sorry. You don't show enough support nor passion, which is usually what a veteran of any series would do.

That's messed up. You don't have to love the whole series to be called a veteran. I say that title itself is unnecessary since I didn't know there was a ranking system to being a fan.

What makes DmC Dante more interesting than badass Dante?

IIRC he's a 27 year old man (Because Tameem said Dante is like 14 years younger than him or something) and he lives in a trailer. Acts like a edgy child who hates his parents because they sent him to his room, punches bouncers and writes "**** You" in big letter on their clip board.



Says nothing witty Eg; **** you banter

Knocks people's drinks out of their hands because "Muh rebellious personality!"

Wet chunks

List goes on.

Wrong. He's a guy in his early twenties who has to deal with figuring out the true origin of who he is in a world against him, and joining a group lead by his brother, who has alter motives. He must also come to terms with his demonic and angelic heritage to stop a mad man demon king who's bent on controlling the world through cynical means.
Duh.

And I can say a lot about the past Dantes, but then I'd be criticized as "a Tameen lover" or "not a veteran fan". You people need to grow up. Seriously.

This guy pulls off the "Giant Douche" Personality better

Because he's trying to be like his favorite anime characters.

Travis wasn't raised with fighting Demons his whole life and tortured to never having a normal life. He just watched a lot of anime and wrestling tapes and decided "I need money. F*ck it, I'll be an assassin."

Wait he is in his mid 20s...thought he was a late teen or something (18/19) then his prickish/rebel behavior would've made more sense.

The same could be said for DMC3 Dante and his "Hey Lady's talking about her mom's death, let me laugh in her face while she does" attitude.
 
On the topic of voice of actors...if they do make a DmC2 I think its best to find a better replacement for Timmy Phillips...it doesn't have to be Reuben....it can be ANYONE because one Dante should be older so he should sound older.....maybe and two...Tim kind of sucks....I mean for the most part he sounds average...no wait out of all of the cast Dante's voice acting was the worst (not saying the others were bad no Phineas and Mundus were great especially Phineas). Its just Dante was either below average or terrible...it shows especially in scenes when Dante is either screaming or yelling (THANK GOD those scenes don't happen often). I mean when he screams/yells/or raises his voice...it sounds...oh so bad like the scene when he got Arbiter or when Vergil was sucked in Mundus and Dante screamed "VERGILL!!! AAAAAYYNNGGHHHH!!!." My reaction was wow...they managed to beat DMC1's "Fill your dark soul with LIIIIGHHTT!!!" in the bad voice acting.

I can't blame Tim, he probably would've sounded better in his natural British accent. I blame whoever at NT who chose a guy who has a pretty bad English accent. Even Reuben expressed interest in playing Dante. I don't know why Capcom didn't recommend him at first.

What? I liked those. A & R carried the comedy, while Dante was the straight man for once.

You know what...I actually can't remember much of what Dante said in DMC3:lol: It's been so long since I played the game. I liked the parts where he confronted Vergil....can't remember much else. :P
