You know, DmC Definitive Edition could have been just a port of the same exact game with the DLC for the PS4 and Xbox. Instead, it's something that they went back to and put some serious work in to. Giving people the options to do all the things people wanted to do, retuning the mechanics and overall gameplay, a bunch of new content, etc. etc.
Also, it's only going to be priced at about $40 at launch.
THAT'S how you do a port. They're actually giving a compelling argument to invest in another copy of the game which I wouldn't be getting if it was just the same thing. It's my biggest issue with the gaming industry and their idea of ports and HD remakes. Just a little polish and trying to sell people on the same stuff as if its worth it.
If the DMC 4 Special Edition seriously doesn't put forth an effort to actually improve on the game like the Definitive DmC is doing, then that will be just sad. And vanilla DmC is still a well made game in its own right that was still a fun Devil May Cry. This is just really getting better where it counts.
For some reason i feel like the old hairstyle and costumes are a bit out of place in this universe.
Welcome to exactly what Tameem said three years ago about why classic Dante would look silly in the urban context of DmC. The costumes look really cool and all, but from a narrative standpoint, they are really just too flamboyant
It's cool they gave those old school costumes for those who like them but personally i think i'm still going to stick with the 'original' in this one. For some reason i feel like the old hairstyle and costumes are a bit out of place in this universe(just like regular clothes would look weird in DMC IMO), reason why i've never used the DMC3 costume. I wish they gave Dante another 'normal' outfit. It suits him better IMO.... not a big deal at all though.
Do what first?My first thought upon seeing this on FB was: why the hell didn't they do this in the first place?
I wonder if they've changed any of the bosses and added the Dante boss to Vergils downfall.
As much as I would LOVE that, I doubt that'll happen. Unless they already had the material for it.
Is anyone else hoping for a DMC2 skin?I'm hoping that they'll include more than 2 skins, but I'm not crossing my fingers here. Here in the game industry, I'm tired of getting my hopes up. I'll just let 'em surprise me.
I don't mean to spread negativity here, but it seems that some people are throwing their complaints back in Capcom's face. Can't say I'm surprised though.
to which I say you can eat a whole ass.
Insane, isn't it? I've come to the conclusion that some people are 'offended' by the mere existence of this game because no matter what NT & Capcom do, it'll NEVER be enough. And those are supposedly the people developers/publishers should be listening to..... give me a goddamn break.I don't mean to spread negativity here, but it seems that some people are throwing their complaints back in Capcom's face. Can't say I'm surprised though.
As long as they keep their crap in DMC4 section i couldn't care less anyway.
Also I have been keeping a eye on these recent developments but have not been seeing much hate being thrown around here, where is all this hate located in the thread?
Maybe I missed it.
I've seen a lot of hate in Youtube and Silconera. Some people there actually STOPPED calling Capcom greedy bastards because of the DMC4:SE, but they talk sh!t about this game, even when they company listened.
