General DMC 5 Discussion

That's unlikely, considering how close we are to release. If the game was over a year away, maybe, but 6 months probably won't allow for such a major change to the game, to replace and entire stage, the prologue, no less. There is still things that need to be done within that time so it's not as though they aren't still busy and chances are, with the release so close by, they will be showing off that footage before long, themselves.

Maybe so, but if it does happen... don't be surprised.

This poster is giving off an Infinity War type vibe from it but its mostly due to Nero's pose in the middle.

I guess the drill based DB moves I saw in the trailer are a different DB than the rocket/Punchline.

I hope that whip arm of Nero's will feel like the Dark Prince's Daggertail.

I think the Dr. Strange reference might be intentional.

Dr. Strange.....how so?

I was wrong. Since Dr. Strange is the one with the time stone and that's the time mechanic I thought it was him in that pose in the IW poster, but was actually IM on that spot.

aww they do care :0

Just...I love it. It's almost like...Ninja Theory wasn't responsible for everything that DmC was, and maybe...juuuust maybe, it was a good game~

Nothing about Kyrie yet!

Nothing about Kyrie yet!

Nero told her to "get back inside" in that announcement trailer, and she is dutifully waiting for the all clear. She's not keen on getting kidnapped again (or at least, just yet...).

 

[TWOxACROSS]

I was going to make a joke about the kitchen but, let's face it, Nero is too whipped to ever say something like that.

Well that looks nice. A breakdown of ways to get some sweet, sweet Red Orbs.

 

[Ronin]

Wonder if the Blue, Yellow & Gold Orbs are still around? White Orbs too?

Someone found a hidden area in the demo:

Holy Jesus ... They hid the area inside the demo version of the game! What will be in full ?!

I was going to post this but oh well!!

I heard the mission ranking system was more based around how Bayonetta does it which focuses more on just how you perform in fights and orbs you collect and less emphasis on time (THANK GOD). So like Bayonetta there could be hidden areas with extra fights in them to raise the mission rank.

In one of those rumors it says there will be some changes to the mission structure. I guess the ranking system and the hidden fights are one of them.

Not sure if this was posted already but just in case.

A deeper breakdown of Nero's combat. Sigh at that Devil Breaker section. Not only you can't switch DBs at will, but you can't even choose which one will be the next one when your current arm breaks.

That's even worse. That sounds like a wheel system.

 

[TWOxACROSS]

From that resetera thread.

This iiiis...pretty telling of what kinds of Breakers we get. We've got Ragtime; something that looks to affect the Red Queen and Exceed; Gerbera and its lasers; a classic Buster arm <3; the shocking Overture; ROKKETTO PANCHI; a drill(?); and a chain-blade kinda dealio?

I wonder how you actually decide what Breakers you get? Can you talk to Nico and you decide which kinds of Breakers you want her to scatter on the road ahead? Or will she toss out whichever ones she wants because "Screw you, asshole. Nico knows best."

 

[TWOxACROSS]

@TWOxACROSS Dude, I... posted that like 3 pages ago... sigh...

Apologies for not wading through 200+ posts as thoroughly.

 

[TWOxACROSS]

Ok... Just don't don't do it again.

Y'know what I really want a clean image of? That glamour shot of Nero in the loading screen, with the Red Queen and a Devil Break in the background. Some good detail on that. It seems like they're giving each character a specific little emblem. Nero has a heart with a rose and a hand, I think? I can't remember where I saw it now...

 

[Erian1Mortal]

Cleaner version of the pic of the controller.

Ok... Just don't don't do it again.

RS is also for Easy Automatic (Long Hold to activate)
LT is Exceed
RT is currently "Unused"
D-Pad is currently "Unused"

might want to add that

Anyway, if I remember right that image had the text on the black side of the screen. If I can find footage of the game in 4K I could easily doctor it out. The trick is finding the right footage and moment when there is very little text since the less there is the less likely it is to dip into the image.
