You're wrong. Totally wrong. DMC was the greatest thing since Ben & Jerry's. And Vergil is not generic. He's a very special character who totally did not rip off of Sephiroth, Sessoramu, and Vergil from Static Shock (come on, they both wear blue trench coats and have spiky hair...though I'm sure that time it may have been pure coincidence...still, the point stands).
Oh, and even a little from Richter Belmont (he also had a blue trench coat (in the official art work, anyway) and had a rapid-slash dash move--I say it counts.)
So yes. I'm right. You're wrong. Old Vergil rules. New Vergil sucks. :troll:
And what do you mean "sinking ship"?? A few leaks here and there....and an iceberg.... never hurt anybody! Just slap some duct tape on it like Capcom usually does and it'll be as good as new! Or DMC4. Whichever is more believable.
"Vezlid"?? More like...."Vex....lid".... because you vex ...people. (vex = agitate) And it had a very deep story! Aspiring writers of today can learn a thing or two from the paper-thin plot. Sure, you could put the whole thing on a menu at Denny's, but that doesn't mean it was anything less than spectacular. It's quality, not quantity.
And don't tell me that the old DMC series had neither, because then it would be obvious that you have no idea what you're talking about. Just let the the old fanboys like me wallow in our delusions of grandeur and we'll keep ignoring your valid, well-thought out arguments.
Honestly...some people...
