DmC: Devil May Cry 2

[LordOfDarkness]

Okay so me and a friend of mine (awakewithoutsilence) are currently working on ideas for DmC 2.

I need some time to get things posted here so updates may be slow. We appreciate constructive criticism and feedback also thanks.

 

[LordOfDarkness]

The idea is to take the plot and continue it 3 months after where DmC left off. To begin with we have the military taking down demons and the general routine stuff. And all of humanity trying to survive etc since the aftermath of DmC. Dante is being his usual badass self but he's now running his own shop called Devil may Cry (This is basically The New Order's HQ) Dante gets a visit from a new face. A half human and half demon, called Lady. Dante learns about this Demon General that's running a casino in Town and is informed that he is a serious threat to humanity. This leads Dante to follow Lady who takes him to the demon where Dante spies and sees the demon speaking with his brother, Vergil. Dante hasn't seen his brother in 3 months. Later on he goes to the casino alone where he confronts the General. After an argument over what Vergil is up to breaks out, Dante kills all the demons all but the General. He demands to know where his brother is and what he's up to which he finds out that. Vergil has found a way into the true demon world (that being hell) but instead of following his brother he listens to Kat's pleas instead over his cell phone and decides to return back to DmC. When he arrives he learns of Lady's true motives, that she is hunting down her demon father Abrahm for the death of her human mother and fears that her power hungry father may be trying to gain more power if he were strong enough to create another Hell Gate. After talking to Kat and Phineas, Dante agrees that it may be beneficial if he were to tap into his Angel side. He discovers a new world called Purgatory where he seeks help from the Angels themselves. Dante soon realises that the Angels only ever held a truce with the Demons once over fears that a few new race creatures created by demons and fallen angels (Nephilims) would threaten their own individual existences.​

 

[LordOfDarkness]

From this Dante truly understands what Phineas really meant about Nephilims being hunted down, rounded up and killed. He sees that much like the human world and Limbo that even in the Angel Kingdom things are not as they seem. Determined to prove a point about his own race and in a daring attempt to help the human race, put a stop to his brothers plans and kill a demon that manifests an ancient power. Dante embarks on a journey that will define who he really is and what shapes his personality as he discovers the long forgotten civilisation of Purgatory where his Angel side truly awakens

DmC: Devil May Cry 2

Introduction

The human world, or Earth as we know it, has become infected. The outbreak, demons. The sky is now filled with darkness, it rains with malice. Humanity has little chance to defend itself against this war that he helped bring.

Dante.

A lone man wanders through some deserted street. There are posters all over the walls about how to protect yourself against a demon attack. Civilisation as we know it has gone. People are now hiding and fighting for their lives. The military are patrolling the streets and trying to clean up any demons still standing.

The man walks into a shop...

"Huh, I see you're still open for business? I could certainly do with a drink. All this madness can go to your head" the man says, letting out a little chuckle.

"You...you get out of my shop..." the shopkeep replies with serious distress as he points to a poster behind the till.

The poster is of Dante's face with the word 'Terrorist' written all over it with the Raptor News Network Company Logo brandished on it.

"That's real nice...So you think I'm a terrorist? Buddy, we're now living in the middle of a warzone and you think you only have me to worry about?".

A loud screeching cry comes from outside and gunfire sounds all around.

"Listen I just help supply people with food and water...I don't want any trouble" the shopkeep hesitates.

"Don't worry, you're not gonna get any".

The shop keeper has the radio turned on and we hear a radio broadcast.

"They just came from out of nowhere, these hideous monsters, and started attacking everyone around them. They didn't care at all. I was lucky to get out alive"

"It's been 3 months since the event everyone is now calling The Apocalypse. This local vicar has this to say"...

"...It's been a horrible turn of events. Yet it would seem that in religious terms this would indeed be a day of reckoning. We should all pray to God".

A few military troops storm into the shop and confront Dante and the shop keeper.

"Don't move, stay where you are!" they demand, their guns drawn.

"Hey, isn't that the?...".

"Doesn't matter, we haven't got time for that now. Demons have us pinned down in this area. We're not going anywhere until we get a call from back up".

"You guys are waiting for back up?" Dante asks. The troops shake their heads.

"You should of just asked. Your back ups right here" Dante answers, walking towards the door.

"HEY! HEY! You can't just walk out of here. It's the middle of a battlefield out there, you'll get yourself killed"

"Doubtful" Dante laughs.

"HEY!!! I'm ordering you to stay here!".

"Yeah? Well I'm not following orders".

"Ah forget it, let the terrorist die anyway".

Dante walks out of the shop looking ****ed off.

I like that it has great potential

 

[LordOfDarkness]

Thank you

 

[ef9dante_oSsshea]

Your welcome dude

 

[VOLPE]

Sounds like a great game and story line keep it up

 

[Ronin]

Will Dante gain some angel allies to help him? Maybe an old friend of Eva's?

 

[V's patron]

i would say just dont use lady.

better off to make a new character

I respect your opinion, but doesn't necessarily mean we are going to change what we have here. We're working on making this like the first DmC was (A reboot to the Devil May Cry Franchise) I know they added in Kat as a new character, but they needed to add a new character in there somewhere. We are going to add quite a few new characters along with old ones also. Plus with Lady we are going to refer to her as Mary in the story. Lady is just so old fans can recognise that that's who she is based off of.

Abrahm is to change the name of Arkham because we don't want everything kept the same. The difference with DMC Lady and our DmC's Mary is that Mary is half human and half demon. I'm pretty sure DMC Lady was just human.

We're not going so far as to shove Trish and Lucia in there. We probably won't really bother with Trish because we can't see how a character like her is really going to benefit and continue the story (At least from our point of view) and going into a character like Lucia would just be confusing at this point. Whereas with Lady she is the character that a lot of fans are currently asking whether or not she should be involved in DmC at some point and we are saying yes and implementing her into the story in this way.

I meant no disrespect, i'm just a little suspect of rebooting lady and arkham cause DMC3 was my first DMC game. I would just say make Abraham a trickster villain because on of the things i like about Arkham was that he was a trickster type character.

It would be interesting to see other psychics/witches in this world just to see how people would react to their presence.

No offence taken in the slightest. Just clarifying the issue. We will add in a few more mediums too.

 

[LordOfDarkness]

After Dante's Introduction the player will then assume the role of Dante. As you walk out of the shop (automatically done for you) you will enter into an empty street (The same one as in the Intro's Cutscene). You will notice a couple of demons that crawl out of the ground instantly reminding you they are Stygians. They are killed by gunfire from the soldiers.

Continue to walk to your left as a pile of built up burnt vehicles obstructs your path to the right. Dante will get a call from Kat on his cell phone which he will answer without any button prompt.

 

[LordOfDarkness]

The phone call dialogue is short but too the point.

"Kat, what have you got for me?".

"Give me a second. There's a large number of demons heading to your vicinity now. You need to stay undetected. Can you do that Dante?".

"I guess...But why would I need to?".

"Because attracting the attention of a crowd of demons will put those people you met in danger".

"****, how did you know about them?... "

There's a brief pause.

"Kat?"

"I don't even know how I know myself. Just promise me you'll stay out of trouble."

Dante hangs up with a smile on his face. "Oh I promise".

 

[The crazy demon]

Well after reading your summary i think something you should really add is more aggresive angels, i mean after Mundus world dominacion fell probably his angelic counterpart would send his boys to kill demons and probably help mankind.

But this would be bad for the nephilim because the angels would be hunting for them too.

Yeah thats definitely something we are going to add. A lot of the story is about Dante being a social outcast to have him question whether humanity is worth saving at all. You have a lot of the Angels turn a blind eye to humanity because of society's greed and sins. Then you have Dante being hunted because he is Nephilim. Vergil however hides behind his demonic heritage and chooses not to acknowledge his angelic roots almost in fear of what he might have to go through with the demons and angels being against him if they knew he was also Nephilim.

 

[The crazy demon]

Well i cant say more because i havent see more, but sounds good.

Start typing, i want MOAR power!

 

[VOLPE]

Cant wait to read more of this got a real knack for capturing the characters
