Due to DmC's bad sales......

They should do one more entry into this series, maybe address some of the issues that people had, and see how well it sells. THEN they can make the decision to continue.....the thing is, i doubt they are going to go back to old Dante. As much as people say they want it its unlikely that they will be returning to original series. They would have made DMC5 if they were interested in that. They would have let Ninja Theory use a version of old Dante if they were interested in that....if this doesn't do well the series is probably dead.

The reason? DmC is a Great game. if Dante's hair color and personalty were the only reasons it didnt sell well, there isn't much reason it continue, because the game play was solid.

The gameplay was mediocre,not so very much solid. Seeing as enemy step was beyond rushed,glitches with air gain and color coded enemies were in there,
Other than that,you're probably right. The gameplay was passable for playable though.

it wasn't an objectively bad game though
-good graphics
-good gameplay
-nice story
-replayability
these are all the factors of a good game, an 82/100=GOOD GAME, not great, but good, so no, they weren't overly praising it because they knew what bioware was going for, they knew what to expect, and they graded it accordingly instead of being completely subjective by saying
"DERP, NOT A CLONE OF DRAGON AGE 1, THEREFORE IT SUCKS, DERP" this isn't how you do a good review and until you realize that you will never be able to be taken seriously by gaming journalists, robert cram is a good example of someone who frequently gets annoyed at people who have never taken a journalism class pretending like they can objectively critique something in a critical way, and i'm sure in your mind you think you are being objective all the time but I can tell you, that its not true

Are you just lying through your teeth in an attempt to discredit those who work to make DmC lose a few more sales? I refuse to believe that anyone can still genuinely cling to the belief that DA2 has good anything.

because its not a clone of the first game, they did very well for an extremely short development period

You should probably relax. your attitude is way off. we get it,you hate DA2. no need to make others seem stupid for thinking otherwise.
I just think that it's funny that one of the loudest defenders of DmC is also a proud defender of Dragon Age 2. He might as well start praising Superman 64. But I suppose I should stop discussing DA2's (lack of) merits beyond just mentioning it, this is not a Bioware fan forum after all.

That's funny.

However,if you disagree with him and wish to share your opinion do it in a civil and respectable manner.
"DERP, NOT A CLONE OF DRAGON AGE 1, THEREFORE IT SUCKS, DERP"
Although he's guilty of the same thing. I wonder if he learned that creative writing skill at college.

"DERP, HAIR'S NOT WHITE, THEREFORE IT SUCKS, DERP" - according to him, literally every single complaint about DmC. It's hard to not become a little confrontational when forced to deal with arguments like this.

I'm forced to agree on that one. but you never have to respond in the first place.

Lack of response means that your opponents are allowed to dominate the discourse. I don't want people to think that all "haters" are whiny babies who can't deal with minor changes, and that's what can happen if nobody calls people like Alchemist out on their bullshit. Believe me, I don't enjoy talking with him. I'd rather play video games or watch gay porn, but he just keeps posting :(

And I'm 30. Want to make something of it?

Seriously, enough with the off-topic and pointless posts that you seem to make in every thread you encounter. Why don't you take some of your own advice and IGNORE people you cannot get along with? It would sure make my job easier...

Carry on, everyone.

why does everyone have to be so mad? its only a game
yea its a game and you'd have to wonder why people who are so proud of hating it flock to EVERY piece of positivity towards it
