Hypothethical question

Would people still feel the same way about this game is the original Dante was in it, look wise and persona?
 
So basically if everything about the game was the same, but you swapped out new Dante for the original Dante? If so I still wouldn't be crazy about it. Initially I would probably be more interested but given the lackluster trailers, NT/Capcom's rudeness, and the overall "meh" of the game in every aspect: probably not.
 
No.
I can't even imagine that.
Even if I try to, just looks silly in my head.
Although I would like to see that original Dante's costume unlocked after you beat the game.

EDIT: Oh I forgot how would people feel about the game....hmmm of course people would 100% approve this game if it was about original Dante.
 
Personally, I think people wouldn't moan half as loud, if it was about original Dante. Hell, if DMC3-Dante was in that setting, people would give sacrficing rituals to speed up the developement.
If TGS 2010 sported either DMC3 or 4-Dante, this wouldn't have happened. I am so sure of this, I would bet my balls on it, unfortunately, I have yet to invent the damn time-machine.
 
All that frameblah & other blah's are just layers covering the core "It's not dmc3/4 dante". If it was one of those ***** in DmC,this thread and many others won't exist in the first place.
 
it could've been worse... it could've been a WHOLE NEW character with no sign of dante...
personally because it's dante, i'm not bothered... it's the whole 'what will they do with Vergil' that bothers me

If TGS 2010 sported DMC3 or 4 Dante it would still be mediocre. Open your eyes, DmC "haters", "skeptics", "I don't give a damn about the game's existance" are not just mad about the horrible look. It's just one of many reasons to dislike DmC. Now proceed to cut your balls.

Please,spare me the melodrama. You & I both know the reason you hate DmC is cos you're afraid that DmC & DmC dante are gonna replace DMC & DMC dante. Deny it as much as you like but you want to see your beloved DMC dante again.
Technically: it's the looks,you want to see DMC LOOKing dante in more dmc related games. Simple as that.
@VB,you basically have an idea already of what they'll do to Vergil,unless dante & vergil are longer twins in DmC then you can remain skeptical of what they'd do to vergil but if not just picture DmC dante with a longer fully white hair(he's power hungry,so he probably greyed faster) and if you're lucky a blue coat & a katana,thats your vergil .

Foolishness.

1.I'm not afraid that DmC and DmC Dante will replace DMC and DMC Dante, in fact I anticipated long ago that it might happen sooner or later.

2. Nonsenses. You dare say that it's the look of the original Dante that I'm seeking. You're wrong and I will tell you why you failed with that statement. DMC3-4 look for Dante are lame and I have buy the games regardless. Simple as that.

3. It's absurd that you can know why I'm not going to buy the game, since you are not in my head.
 
I would have felt less uneasy in the beginning, but overall it wouldn't really matter to me. The best part about DMC is the stylish action and as long as the new Dante can dispatch foes as smoothly and as over-the-top-ly as old Dante then I'm still walking on sunshine. To me, a DMC with a new look is better than no DMC at all.
 
There's nothing wrong with wanting to get a Devil May Cry 5 with the original Dante instead of this new game with a new Dante. It is totally understandable why some fans are angry about all these changes, it's a beloved game series with beloved characters in them and now Capcom have changed all that, possibly permanently. It's not because Dante looks different, it's not because the gameplay has changed, it's because it is just not part of the original series. It's a whole new world, a new storyline, a new character. Yes, there are MANY things that are alike. The new Dante and the original Dante aren't that different from one another, the gameplay is in the same genre, the story might even be like the original one (though we don't know much about it yet), but it is just not THAT Dante, it is not THAT gameplay, it is not THAT story that we know from the original 4 games. That is why the fans are angry.

I think the new Devil May Cry looks good and I like the new Dante's look and all, but I also know that the new Devil May Cry is not the original Devil May Cry. It is like it, but it is not it. I'm just happy that there will be more Devil May Cry games for me to play, even if it isn't the Devil May Cry I have played before.

Oh, believe me, I am aware, that there are people who are truly sceptic (for whatever reason), but I still am sure, that if I toss a stone into the DMC-fanboy-community, I'll hit five guys, that are haters (yes, haters, not sceptics) because of the first impression TGS 2010 left. I've been on facebook for over seven months, discussing this very topic, and I have seen about three guys, that were capable of bringing up valid arguments, except "where is old Dante?".
My balls stay where they are.
 
I've thought about this before and I'm forced to say yes, I would like it more. This, however is not the case and the more I see of the game the less impress I am with what I see and I am force to say 'at first I would've been accepting, certainly more than I am now, but the more I see the less I like.' So even with a Dante that holds to the original the game isn't really delivering what was promised which is a vast improvement on the previous titles, so far this is more of the same.
 
The question is a bit weird imo. First of all DmC is in a totally different world. If the usual Dante appeared there it would be like he went a trip to another dimension, which could be weird/cool/boring/awesome - you decide. Pat/Cat/whatever her name is might not even exist in the game, certainly the police could never attain Dante no matter what they tried and so on.

Therefore, just by having the usual Dante there, the game would be a lot different. And yes, I'd prefer it. The usual Dante is one of my favorite characters ever, and same goes for the DMC universe, so if I had to choose between something I already know and love and something new, I'd of course be biased and choose the thing I have more experience with.

Yes, because we know that now, that it's an etirely new work, but imagine it was a year ago when we didn't know. At least I belive that is the implication behind this hypotetical senarion.

Then, the question would be meaningless - at least to me.

As I understand it, the point of the question is for some "haters" to admit that the number one reason they hate DmC, is because of the new Dante, even though the game might turn out to be great, but those haters won't even give it a chance.

If we know nothing about the game except that it's a Devil May Cry with a new Dante, I believe it is then that we could give it a chance. Thus making the question a bit unfair, as we would be throwing opinions about something we know nothing about, except the title.

Right now, that we are getting closer and closer to what the game will turn out to be, the question is more fair, as everyone has some idea about the game - at least gameplay.
 
I wouldn't put the original Dante into these settings with this storyline. It wouldn't make sense. However, if they made a new setting, but kept the idea of a city ruled by demons and a human girl hires the original Dante to come and help, that would work, but then it should happen in the same world as the 4 original games and not a whole new parallel/alternate world.
But that's kinda what Devil May Cry 2 is about, isn't it?

Isn't it obvious they are going to keep his white hair attitude suit and everything only they are going to make him more awesome by making him..... 1/4 penguin 1/4 monkey 1/4 human 1/4 demon :3
 
By original dante I guess you mean white hair and red coat, with one of the 4 personalities right?
If thats the case, I say no because DmC is an "origin" story, and there already is one, with the origiDante. Plus, DmC would seem more like another gun for hire story (which are the games that usually fail in story) and what is needed in dmc is closure. Im sure if dmc ended on a better note than dmc2, the reboot would of been met with more forgiving arms.
I think thats the reason MGRising had a better 1st impression. I think it has nothing to do with MGS, and with platinum games directing it, you can expect a less sophisticated story and a ton of cheesiness.
