DmC's Gaming Sins

Because this guy kind of sucked at it... had some good points but some of it was really shallow. With that said, I shall present to you:

EVERYTHING WRONG WITH DmC IN X NUMBER OF POSTS OR LESS

Opening Scene and Credits:
  • Barack Obama is already blamed for the economy. +1 sin
  • Mundus is a rather cliche' villain. +1 sin
  • Lilith is not really subtle about being a b*tch now is she? +1sin
  • Thank you, Mundus for not letting her finish that sentence. -1 sin
  • It would take the Hunters about 14 years to find Dante and, by the way, there's only one Hunter. +2 sins
  • Mundus has a penchant for ripping chests open (as you will see later). +1 sin
  • The only angels we see are strippers. +1 sin
  • Scratch that, they're actually demons. +1 sin.
  • Our first example of Dante being a douche. +1 sin

  • How the hell did his coat get up there? +1 sin
  • Unnecessarily implied sex scene. +1 sin
Mission 1:
  • While it is understandable that the Order is supposed to be inspired by the group Anonymous, the mask does make it a little bit too obvious. +1 sin
  • Oh, look it's Bill O'Reilly! +1 sin
  • Bob suggests illegal means of killing someone despite being against the death penalty. +1 sin
  • Dante has a hangover and he keeps drinking. +1 sin
  • Where the hell did Kat come from? +1 sin
  • Awkward nudity. +1 sin
  • Careless? He was being an idiot! +1 sin
  • "DAaaaAAAaaaNTE..." Subtitle-f*ck-uppery. +1 sin
  • "He is dragging you into Limbo." No dip, sherlock. +1 sin
  • Wait, can't Kat just mark a way out like she does for the rest of the game? +1 sin
  • "****, back in Limbo." She just said that. +1 sin
  • "Bad day for a hangover." Aren't you an angel- demon hybrid? How come alcohol actually affects you? +1 sin
  • "Get your filthy f*cking claw off my trailer!" It's a grappling hook. +1 sin
  • I ain't gonna lie, Dante putting his clothes back on was probably the coolest part of this game. -1 sin
  • Dante, you just lost your house, how are you not upset about that? +1 sin
  • "Time for a little Rebellion." Okay, I know bad puns are a part of Dante's character but they could have at least improved on that. +1 sin
  • "You wanna fight?" Noooo... They shake want to shake your hand. +1 sin
  • "Kill..." You know, Mr. Limbo, you are the world itself. You could... I don't know... put a hole underneath his feet and let him drop? +1 sin.
  • "Who said that?" You couldn't recognize her voice? You just heard it like two minutes ago. +1 sin
  • "No escape..." I don't see you trying hard to make it so. +1 sin
  • But in all serious, the dock's destruction was wonderfully done. -1 sin
  • "Ebony, Ivory, I missed you girls." Wow... you even rebooted the guns' gender. That's some hardcore rebooting. -1 sin (
  • "Target practice. Right on cue." Didn't you just have target practice with the Hunter two seconds ago? +1 sin
  • Seriously, Dante, do you not recognize that girl's voice? I know it's been about ten minutes but sheesh you don't have to point your guns at her. +1 sin
  • "I am not a demon!" He can see that. +1 sin
  • "How come I can see you clearly?" Weren't you paying attention during the first few seconds of you entering Limbo? She was right there next to you! +1 sin
  • And no one in the background finds it odd that she's talking to herself? +1 sin
  • "And if I pull the trigger?" Why would you!? +1 sin
  • "I want to help." You ain't really doin' a good job so far. +1 sin
  • "I don't need your help." You really don't. +1 sin
  • "The Hunter has dragged you into Limbo." We know that! +1 sin
  • "I can get you out." Didn't you say he had to fight his way out? +1 sin
  • "I've been down here before." Didn't learn a thing about how to not get back in there, did you? +1 sin
  • "You fight whatever sh*t- sucking demon dragged you in here." Or you could have the psychic spray your way out. +1 sin
  • "You don't want to fight the Hunter." No, I don't, are you going to change the situation? No? I still have to fight him? Okay. +1 sin
  • "Where'd she go?" Thanks, Kat, you're a wonderful help! +1 sin
  • "Death.." What about it? +1 sin
  • Obvious gameplay hint. +1 sin
  • "Is that my coat? How did it get up there?" That's what I'm wondering. +1 sin
  • "Sweet." I concur. -1 sin
  • Wait, we get to see the Ferris Wheel get jacked up but the rest of the pier is fine? +1 sin
  • Why is Hunter aiming at the ground? +1 sin
  • "Hey! Through here!" Where the hell have you been? +1 sin
  • Why didn't you just put your hand through the mirror like you did the wall? +1 sin
  • "Hey! Get back here!" Why? +1 sin
  • "Stop..." Now you tell him to stop? You haven't made much of an effort to make him do so. +1 sin
  • Oh, and obvious gameplay hint. +1 sin
  • "Not a million years." Not if extra costumes have anything to do about it! And ironic foreshadowing, nice! -2 sins
  • "That won't work." "Why not?" Take a freakin' guess! +1 sin
  • "He's bulletproof." No sh*t! +1 sin
  • "Trap him..." Isn't that your job? +1 sin
  • Why did you wait until now to throw the magic malatov at him? +1 sin
  • "Hunters are brutal fighters." "So am I." You trip every time you swing your sword. I wouldn't exactly call you "brutal". +1 sin
  • "Dante, can you still hear me?" You're screaming loud enough. +1 sin
  • "Attack it's face!" Duuuuhhh! +1 sin
  • "Oh you feel it now, don't you?" You never slashed his face, just shot at it. I'm surprised you didn't think to do that the first time or just realized he was bulletproof. +1 sin
  • "Now use your guns to shoot him down!" I sware Kat if you speak one more piece of obvious informaton...
  • "That's it. It's working." At least you helped in a substantial way this time.
  • "Do you f*cking demons even feel pain?" He's freakin' falling to the ground! What else would he be feeling!? Ectasy!? +1 sin
  • "I helped you back there." Not that it much of a difference. +1 sin
  • "I didn't ask for your help." Nope but you still needed it. +1 sin
  • So you're just going to get in anyways? What was the point in arguing back? +1 sin
  • "Something to do with that masked freak on the net?" And the news. +1 sin
  • "That's my boss." Yes, just give out sacred information to someone you just met. +1 sin
  • "We're just receiving reports..." You're receiving them now? What happened to your "eye in the sky"? +1 sin
  • "We have your scent, Son of Sparda." Yeah but you still don't know where he is or what he does despite all the resources you have at your disposal. +1 sin
  • "Not what I was expecting." "That's the idea." It sure is, ain't it? +1 sin
  • "The demons are amongst us Dante..." Oh gosh... Who wrote her script? +1 sin
  • "The world is asleep, brainwashed, and helpless." Cliche'. Again, I understand the inspiration but they aren't really being original about it. +1 sin
  • "Defence? You got no chance." Have you done any better? +1 sin
  • "... pop stars..." I knew it! +1 sin
  • Another sign of Dante's douchiness, him shrugging off an appraised greeting. +1 sin
  • Awkward silence. +1 sin
  • "Your point?" Dante does not hold the concept of implied relationships between two events. +1 sin
  • "Meningitis is a human affliction. You are not human, Dante." Foresahdowing! -1 sin
  • "Rewind a bit- who are you again?" No need to get sassy. +1 sin
  • "I established the Order to find a way to fight the demons." Woah, woah, woah. Didn't some early info on the Order say that it was some millennia old? +1 sin
  • "What else were you planning on doing with your life?" Question of the motherf*cking day! -1 sin
  • "If you want to leave- turn your back one me, I'm powerless to stop you. But you'll be making a grave mistake. Not just for yourself, but for mankind." Another piece of foreshadowing! -1 sin
  • "Mankind?" "Yes!" "What makes you think I give a ****?" Well f*ck you too, Dante. +1 sin
Mission 2:
  • The sign says Paradise but everything is in ruins. Nice bit of contradictory setting. -1 sin
  • How does she get all those ingredients? Especially squirrel semen?
  • "I like it rough." Again, NT could have really... really... improved on the puns. +2 sins (the extra one for the awkwardness)
  • Kat's kind of cute. -1 sin
  • "Who is that?" Wait, are those kids holograms? Flashbacks? What the hell's going on? +1 sin
  • Doctor who sequence? -1 sin!
  • Again, what are the holograms he keeps seeing? +1 sin
  • "Stop him..." Why? He was literally standing still for what seemed like minutes. You could have killed him then. +1 sin
  • Now that I think about it, why does Dante remember his mom but not his dad? +1 sin
  • "A blue rose..." DMC 4 reference? -1 sin
  • Like I said, Mundus has a penchant for ripping out chests. +1 sin
  • "I will never forget what he did to her." Correction: Now, you won't forget. +1 sin
  • "... hid us safely amongst the humans..." Well he did for Vergil. You got screwed over. +1 sin
  • "Above all, I want to know who is responsible for all this." You should know by now right? He literally owns everything! His face should have popped up in the news, right? You're telling me that the biggest bank CEO doesn't make headlines? +1 sin
 
That is, easily, one of the longest lists I've ever seen and you are on mission 2.... that's 10%.
 
:banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead:
Really? It's May 2014 and this video and most of the comments still show how butt-hurt some people are...
You think the game is s**t, we get it!!!!:facepalm:
 
LOL, this is excellent! :P This must've taken some time to make.
This just *again* shows how terrible the writing is. No need to be butthurt about it, though. It's only meant as a joke, it's not a personal attack on anyone.

Yeah, I was planning on doing this in one post initially. Then the "sins" just kept coming so I gave up on that idea.

:banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead:
Really? It's May 2014 and this video and most of the comments still show how butt-hurt some people are...

Yep.

LOL, this is excellent! :P This must've taken some time to make.

About two hours.

This just *again* shows how terrible the writing is. No need to be butthurt about it, though. It's only meant as a joke, it's not a personal attack on anyone.

Actually, your statement is kind of right. Some parts of the script are rather repetitive and inconsistent which is the major reason why I'm doing this. Still, it had its golden moments.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'll continue on two mission 3:
  • "There have always been angels; there have always been demons. And they have always been at war." According to Phineas, this isn't true. +1
  • "Nine millenia ago..." Nine, instead of 2? Not necessarily a wrong but they essentially just made the time gap larger. +1 sin
  • "His blood brother..." Blood brother? What do you mean "blood brother"? Like are they siblings by blood or is it a symbolic relationship? +1 sin
  • "Sparda..." Ah, a modicum of intelligence. -1 sin
  • "The secret union between an angel and demon was inconceivable." According to Phineas, this isn't true. +1 sin
  • "Because according to legend the only beings that can slay a demon king are nephilim..." Considering the process to do it, anyone can do it as long as they got Yamato. +1 sin
  • "Those hybrids now exist..." According to Phineas, this isn't true. +1 sin
  • "... and each had been hidden well." Not really, one was hidden well, the other not so much. +1 sin
  • Okay, I have to make the complaint about the graffiti. It's nice, it really is, but if you're going to tell the story through graffiti, at least get rid of Dante and Vergil. There's really no need for them to be there. And who painted the graffiti anyway? Whoever did isn't making the twins' story any subtler. +1 sin
  • "The Rebellion for Dante, the Yamato for Vergil." No one finds it odd that Vergil is talking about himself and Dante in the third person as if he is some separate narrator? +1 sin
  • "Daaaannnntttteee..." So Spotters are zombies? +1 sin
  • Vergil just killed a person. +1 sin
  • "You're being dragged into Limbo!" We can see that. +1 sin
  • "Trap him..." Again, that's your job. +1 sin
  • Okay, Mr. Limbo, when I said to put a hole under his feet, I didn't mean to crush the entire road two seconds before he even gets there. +1 sin
  • "Another blue rose?" Why is this one floating in a light? +1 sin
  • "Silver Sacks..." Who named the bank "sacks"?
  • "Through debt, he controls everything." Mundus said that. +1 sin
  • "... the world is a factory farm..." Like in all "anti- establishment" movies. +1 sin
  • "... a global network of CCTV cameras, satellites, and spies." Yet they couldn't find Dante for how long? +1 sin
  • "It's lobotomy in a can." This is odd. What about other drinks? +1 sin
  • By the way, nice shot, Dante. -1 sin
  • "That's the Hell Gate." DMC 4 reference? -1 sin
  • Now that I think about it, the Order is a DMC 4 reference too. -1 sin
  • "But if we get him away from the Hell Gate, our swords will do the rest." So how are you being Nephilim important in this process? +1 sin
  • "... we do that by p*ssing him off." Sounds like a good plan. Tick off the most powerful being in the planet. +1 sin
  • Again, Dante shows some intelligence. He didn't even need to be told that Virility and Raptor have to be destroyed to get Mundus mad. -1 sin
 
OOOoo Oooo do DMC 1-4 next!
Nope. He won't...DmC is the only game in the series that'll get any kind of criticism for its writing and plot inconsistencies. Because, you know, the other games were just impeccable when it came to those things....

I concur. The original series was way too perfect for me to do DMC 1- 4. So much so, that I have to do it anyways because even they were so perfect that their perfections became imperfections.
 
Well then this thread is now boring. It has no variety at all.

I'm out.

I barely started. I do have 17 more missions to go and it's kind of hard to be witty when the game improves upon itself as it continues. For example, I seriously enjoyed Vergil's exposition during Mission 3 because I thought the graffiti was a nice touch and help give a visual build on what Vergil was saying. For me to make fun of it was rather hard to do.

If you don't like it then that's fine, just know that it's really hard trying to keep this up.

At least Cinema Sins are funny and actually make some real points you know.

Ummm... I'm actually basing this on GamingSins because he doesn't make any real points either. I'm just trying to do it better.

Lol the originals are perfect? DMC2's gameplay that's complete ass, DMC3's retcons, DMC4, the entire game, DMC1's pointless underwater stage.

You do realize that we're joking, right?

Now, if you don't mind me continuing, Mission 4:
  • "They're aware of you now Dante..." Does that really need to be said? +1 sin
  • "... so stay low." Oh geez... +1 sin
  • "It'll kill ya." Random douchiness. +1 sin
  • "Don't draw attention!" It's not like anybody but the demons give sh*t. +1 sin
  • "...Daaaannnntteee..." Well, stealth mode's over. +1 sin
  • "Oh c'mon!" Don't complain! You got yourself into this! +1 sin
  • "Kat, they dragged me into Limbo." "What? How?" He was holding one of the demon's ha- He got freakin' caught! How else? +1 sin
  • "They must have been looking out for you." No sh*t, sherlock! He's a wanted criminal! +1 sin
  • "Hey, snake- eye!" You called? +1 sin
  • "No..." Umm... was that supposed to be a threat? Nothing death- related? Just... "no"? +1 sin
  • Again, Mr. Limbo, I'm pretty sure you're supposed to collapse everything while he is standing in that area, not before. +1 sin
  • "Whoah! Some doesn't want me here!" You think? And who spells "Whoah" with an h? +2 sins
  • "The city itself is trying to stop you." Thank you, Ms. Obvious. +1 sin
  • "Come closer..." Now you're just being creepy. +1 sin
  • "What the hell?" Get it! Because it's a demon and he's in Limbo which is basically close to hell and... oh, he wasn't making a pun this time? Oh... my bad. +1 sin (for me, not the game)
  • "Die..." How many times have you asked to do that already? +1 sin
  • You know, I think Dante looks cool every time he lands. -1 sin
  • Oh look, this enemy's color- coded... What? You expected this to be a sin? Ha! DMC 1 had enemies that were impervious to sword attacks (with the exception of their core inside the shield)! These guys aren't as hard. I find this a rather good challenge. What do you mean it "limits" combos? Negro, grow some balls and get some skills! If you can't do combos with one weapon, you don't deserve to play any DMC! +1 sin for you for being a whiner.
  • "Never seen a witch use a spray can before." Ain't she supposed to be psychic? +1 sin
  • "Well, spells can take hours, if not days, to prepare. So why not can it for instant use later." So she's a psychic witch? That's pretty freakin' cool! -1 sin
  • "Instead of focusing on the nightmares." Awww... Kat's so tragic... and so cute... She's so... Katwaiiiiiii! -1 sin
  • "Sh*t. Cops." What cops? +1 sin
  • "Kill Dante..." You can participate instead of making orders, Mr. Limbo. +1 sin
  • "Crush him..." Wait, are you telling yourself that or someone else? +1 sin
  • "Fall..." But you're not even trying to make him... +1 sin
  • "Dante..." Yes? +1 sin
  • "Stop..." You say that while making the floor slanted so he can slide down? (Funny enough, in a demo of the same scene, Limbo says "F*ck you" instead of "Stop". Why they took that out I'll never know.) +1 sin
  • Oh look, it's Cartman from Hell! +1 sin
  • "Who invited you, fat a$$?" Oh, insulting him because he's fat, huh? How rude. +1 sin
  • "The fatter they are... the harder they fall." Yeah... that was... that was totally clever. +1 sin
  • Trippiest sequence in the game. -1 sin
  • "It just seemed to drag forever... Church." You b*stard! You insulted my religion! +1 sin
  • Wait why did part of the church collapse? +1 sin
  • "The police have released footage..." Limbo City Police are rather quick to release info. Wish real world police was like that. -1 sin
  • "He goes by the name of Dante." That's his only name. +1 sin
  • "Remember this face, people." I know the fat guy won't forget.
  • "If you see him, inform the police immediately, but do not approach." Didn't you tell people to "illegally shoot" him since you don't like the death penalty? +1 sin
  • "He has a history..." Well, you work fast. You "just found out" the guy's name and you already know his criminal background? That's some good reporting, Bob. -1 sin
  • Bob Barbas is so ugly close- up... +1 sin
 
Ummm... I'm actually basing this on GamingSins because he doesn't make any real points either. I'm just trying to do it better.

Except CinemaSins actually does make valid points betwixt his peppered-in jokes. A lot of your lists are made up of stuff that just...isn't funny, requires you to not pay attention.

"How'd his coat get up there?" The strippers threw it over the ferris wheel and it got caught in another car. Simple.
 
I like what you're doing. Not exactly CinemaSins quality, but it was okay. You do make a few invalid points though, that are perfectly explained in the game. Might wanna pay some more attention.

That video, though. I stopped watching it as soon as he gave the game 9,000 sins for existing. It was a clear indicator he was the captain of the DmC hate bandwagon.
 
We could only look at the negative things about these posts, or we could just... you know... enjoy the humor and not deliberately start a flame war about it. It took a lot of time to make, have some respect. Apparently it's not allowed to make jokes about DmC without criticizing the other Devil May Cry games beforehand :facepalm: Seriously. Though, to be fair, some of the things on the list are not that funny, no. And stuff like ''who writes woa as whoah'' is just weird. I'm pretty sure most people write it with an 'h' at the end.

This I agree! DMC3's sole redeeming quality was its gameplay, nothing else... I like its SE over the original...

Now that you made a fair point on DMC1's underwater stage, I think you're saying that these are unnecessary, right?

*Counter-rant sarcasm mode on*
After agreeing with DarkSlayerZero here, I'd like to say that the video maker is completely biased kissing the "original" DMC's @$$! That is not even considered original anymore! If he thinks DmC isn't original, think again!!
Not gonna bother this $#!+! So nope! Not watching from someone so damn one-sided! He has completely drowned in nothing but his own self-beliefs, an example of the kind of human being I despise!

So in that note, may I also add that Hideki Kamiya stole ideas from Classic Castlevania and that DMC4 is just a rushed, half-assed, watered down and poorly made version of DMC3 whose level design is so damn lazy it's just Dante going through Nero's path COMPLETELY BACKWARDS? ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! Gameplay and replay value are great and all, but the rest of its other aspects? JUST. F'N. NO!
What Kamiya stole from Castlevania: The Gothic themes (especially in the castle), the original intentions for DMC after DMC2 (which Dante was supposed to be replaced by the generation after him, until DMC3 came in; Nero could've been in that role instead of being a complete emotional punk bishounen Ichigo Kurosaki expy shouting his cardboard cut-out girlfriend's name working for a religions organization), the supernatural abilities, the parallelism between Sparda and Mundus, and Leon Belmont and Mathias Cronqvist AKA Dracula prior to the start of their respective game...
People tell me to research, but some of this "research" are missing some things out or just completely biased as F|_|C|<!
*Counter-rant sarcasm mode off*

I'll agree with some things though:
  • I ain't gonna lie, Dante putting his clothes back on was probably the coolest part of this game. -1 sin
  • Sweet -1 sin
And that's about it... I hardly agree on the rest...

Those posts made me do a counter-rant full of sarcasm, see? But they're not replying to you there.

Now most people are becoming illiterate in spelling...?

These posts are not even funny! I see absolutely no humor in it at all! None at all! All of these are just calling out the "blind DmC buttsmoochers" when he's a complete DMC buttsmoocher himself! HYPOCRISY AT ITS FINEST! :banghead:

After reading these posts, it just saddens me... It made my disenfranchisement, disillusionment, and disassociation towards DMC grow... :frown:

This is all coming from a guy completely walking the border between AKA the middle ground forging my own path. Yet I still get insulted?
Didn't this vid maker know about the DMC manga and anime? Dante drinks! And in the manga, Dante got drunk himself! :facepalm:

My God! What a sad era! First I gave away all my DMC games for my PS3 (DMC HD Collection, DMC4, and DmC) to my cousins, then I decided to take a visit here and I read this?! Guess I made a mistake on coming here as I am inactive here as of late... >.<

I'm sorry...

Wow, I don't see why people are getting so upset about this. Those posts are just meant to be funny - Railazel doesn't even hate DmC, as far as I know. At least, not to the point of needing to hate on it every few posts. We can stay stuck in this mentality of DMC vs DmC (which you are contributing to with such a comment), or we could just have a laugh about how DmC is ridiculously bad at times, just like the DMC games were.
Also, what you're saying there is not sarcasm, it's just anger.

"The fatter they are... the harder they fall." Yeah... that was... that was totally clever. +1 sin
"The city itself is trying to stop you." Thank you, Ms. Obvious. +1 sin


This type of stuff is good, it's true, and it's simple fun. We really need to learn to take a joke. And if you've got feedback for the TS, then provide it in a respectful way.
You're not the only one ''walking the border between AKA the middle ground forging your own path''. Everybody walks their own path - not one of us is special in that regard. I see what you're implying: that maybe TS is not following his own path and he's just 'following the herd', but how do we differentiate between those who dislike DmC for valid personal reasons and those who just want to belong to a group? At this point in this thread, we can't.
Besides, you can make fun of things if you want. You can be biased. If he indeed likes DMC but dislikes DmC, that's his prerogative. There's nothing inherently wrong with it, so long as he has good reasons for it. Don't want to hear his jokes, don't follow this thread. Not everything has to become a debate.

Now, bring on the goodness :P
