That picture answers your question. He ages as well. The thing is it's implied that he lost his brother and mother when he was 8 and when he fights Nelo Angelo he doesn't realize it's Vergil until he picks up Vergil's amulet after he beats him. Also when he's holding it you hear flashback audio of children's voices. That implies he hasn't seen his brother since they were kids and also that would explain why he couldn't recognize Nelo Angelo off the bat. Makes sense because he hasn't seen him in a very long time.The DMC3 manga revealed that Dante thought Vergil was dead too prior to them meeting up in the manga and even the demons thought Dante was the last survivor of the attack.
Whether the manga is still canon is debatable considering Dante mentions a reunion he and Vergil had a year ago (the same reunion in DMC3 manga and since the guy who wrote the DMC3 manga was Noboru Sugimara, the same guy who mostly wrote DMC1's plot, and the DMC1 novel Kamiya wrote was before DMC1 and it shows Vergil still alive as Gilver)....sooooooo was Vergil being captured and brain washed at age 8 ever the original plan?
Answer this question:
If Vergil was captured at age 8 and "fell to evil" says Trish so why does Nelo Angelo looks so old and not per say an a8 year old.
It stands. DMC 3 contradicts the established canon. This series is just riddled with plot holes and continuity issues.

Even though I agree, it would have been a shame if they wouldn't have made a brotherly conflict and fight in the DMC games so DMC 3 just gave us that amazing conflict between brothers.It needed one from the start,but it's better done at some point than never done.

Or the flashback just shows when they first got the amulets to show the importance of the amulets to the player.
Granted Nelo Angelo looks very different from Vergil from DMC3.
Plus even if Dante hadn't seen Vergil in 20 years the fact his face looks similar to his and the white hair might have been clues for Dante to assume "Hmm...geee this possessed guy looks kind of like me." The amulet was the ultimate proof that Nelo was Vergil.

The brother conflict already happened though. In DMC 1. Who knows what direction Kamiya would have taken with the plot. The Dante vs. Vergil aspect would have maybe never happened and we could have maybe had Dante fighting a brand new villain every go round. For some reason this plot always wants to revolve around Dante's family tree. And I would have preferred the series to go in new directions instead of pretty much copy and pasting Inuyasha's plot elements and creating a poor villain like Vergil. Yea, I never cared for Vergil. I always thought he couldn't fill a more generic spot in the cast and he wasn't very compelling. I've seen way better villains.

Not if Dante hadn't seen him for like 20 years like we were told. Some people look very drastically different from when they were kids and how they are now you know. Dante is justified in not thinking about the possibility at that moment.Or the flashback just shows when they first got the amulets to show the importance of the amulets to the player.

And think of when you were playing DMC 1. The amulets were LATER revealed to hold a special power of opening portals and sh!t. In the first game however the amulets were presented as kind of a family heirloom and that's pretty much it. So Dante discovering the amulet on Nelo Angelo after he beat him tells Dante it could be no one else besides Vergil because NO ONE else should have this amulet. That was the importance of the amulets in DMC 1.

Yes,but DMC 1 he wasn't the true Vergil,he was brainwashed,he didn't act on his own.
I,myself,enjoy family conflicts especially brotherly conflicts because it's more deep and twisted , it involves blood relations and it makes it more psychological and emotional rather than just...fighting without having any remorse if one is killed. Think of Dante killing any demon in DMC4.He wasn;t affected,but in DMC 3 he even shed tears for his brother,that's why I find it more intriguing.
But there are also other villains like in DMC 1 and 4. I just think Vergil makes a better one because it makes a difficult choice for Dante and tests his human side and also his powers since I think they're equal in these terms,so it's more challenging.It depends how it's pulled off.
What you said about being better ones,that is available for almost everything,there is always stuff that is better than the other.

I kinda share Chancey's dislike of Vergil as a villain, but mostly because it's more like opposing schools of thought clashing, not him being a real villain. He's got some qualities, but ultimately comes off as an anti-hero if anything to me.

Well maybe if the DmC sequel takes place after a few years from the first one, we may see Dante become more like the first one in spirit.

Actually in DMC1 didn't having both amulets allowed Dante to awaken Sparda's (the sword) full power and even allowed him to enter the Underworld?
So even in the first game they had supernatural properties.
IIRC, yea. That's a part of what I have come to respect about the first game when I look back; the implication that he needed certain items and coincidences to have a chance against Mundus.
Stylish Nero
We Dem Boys!!
Yeah now I think about it...how did Dante originally plan to get Mundus (he didn't know Vergil was there with the other amulet)?
Did he plan to just wait there until Mundus broke free and entered the Human World to fight him but didn't he go there to stop Mundus before he broke free.
