Is there any need for the boycott anymore?

Okami' was good in an 'artistic' way. Sort of like, one can't deny that classical music is good, but you can't make a Mozart music video and expect it to be popular. DmC is aiming for the mainstream audience which gives it more flexibility. More people can hate it vocally and it could still do well. It's like, I want to kick Justin Bieber in the balls as does seemingly EVERYONE in the world, but somehow, he sells records like crazy. Imagine if his music was good. So, with the type of audience this game will interest, there's much room for detractors, especially with how 'western' it is while still retaining deep combat. Anyone who has not played a Devil May Cry but would if it were more like, say God of War... Or didn't play Bayonetta because of how shallow and insipid it never cared to NOT be. Yeah, this game is shaping up to be the best of both worlds... Or so Capcom wants.

Honestly, if COD sells gangbusters every frickin' time just copy pasting even with much berating by seemingly everyone, then this has no reason not to.

loved that analogy Lol

Die hard DMC fanboys and fangirls.

I thought that was us?

I have thrown in my face several times that I cannot be a hardcore Devil May Cry fan, or a "true fan", and that I must hate the original Dante because I like the new Devil May Cry and the new Dante. There are people who think that you cannot like both, that you have to choose between them (and that you HAVE to choose the original, of course) or else you are simply not a real fan of the franchise. :/
Sounds stupid, huh?

No, we're more mature then that.
This is us.

this is them;

Yes, That's immature of me, but hey, it's kind of true.

That is one of the reasons why there is a huge conflict.Now if DmC is gonna be turned into a series,expect fanboys and fangirls from both sides having a ridiculous flame war.
We all love the internet but at the same time,we can also hate it.

I don't hate the internet, but the behaviour of people when on the internet can be a pain sometimes.

Sure does. Its all Devil May Cry and Dante in the end so its indeed possible to like both versions and be a loyal fan.

I think people are looking at it the wrong way because Im sure alot of people want to see a DMC 5...a sequel after two preferably....but with DmC being a reboot of the series...people think that the Original Dante is gone to be substituted for Dino...Dante in name only....if the game sells then they would make DmC 2 and DmC 3 and people can kiss DMC good bye...now if the game fails...then we have two possibilities....say good bye to DMC as a whole and they scrap the franchise or the make DMC 5...that is why people are hating on the game and throwing back and forth about that if your a fan you'll buy it or if your a fan you won't buy it and stuff....Me....I wanted a DMC after part 2 or a remake of part 2 after DMC 3..have I gotten it no...and now since DmC is being made...I guess I won't even see it....you see were im going with this....

Thats what worries me; if DmC fails, Capcom will most likely ditch DMC entirely. Hopefully the hd collection sells higher than DmC so they go back to old DMC. Note: I do like the new game.

Seeing how the HD collection didn't turn out to be all that popular, I highly doubt that Capcom will continue DMC after this new game fails. I don't see that happening, but still, it wouldn't be favourable for Capcom.

There are so many reasons I don't consider this a DMC game and when ever the name comes up it's no this new title that comes to mind it's the original and the same goes for Dante. That's me, if you like it that's great, it's your money spend it how you like. And that's all there is to it, unless you are going to ether buy it for someone else or pay them to not get it you don't get to tell people what to buy or how they should feel about it.

I'm in the same boat as ZeroLove here, I got chewed out because apparently I HAVE to choose or else I'm being indecisive.
