I find some Devil May Cry games which concentrate on another protagonist usually don't get much review as the rest like DMC4 with Nero or DMC2 with Lucia
Is this true ?

its mainly a gaming rule in general see if a game in a series comes with a protagonist that's not the one they learned to worship their will be as little reviews as possible

I think its a good idea to change main character after the first one ( for example Dante) appeared so many times (DMC 1, DMC 2, DMC3) but not leaving him completely, just give the main rule to someone else and tell a story which in smaller or bigger way has something to do with previous games. You can see the universe from some other perspective.

Resident evil is the same way if you look at it. First we see what Chris Jill went through, and then it's "Meanwhile, at the Hall of Justice!" And then we're introduced to Leon and Claire.

Still 100 times better than DMC2.

not 100 times given the next-gen graphics and advanced gameplay mechanics i cannot say that they were really trying to do anything good with DMC4 they just made it into a 13 yr old cheesefest
DMC 4 = DMC 2
both of the games were made with little or no creativity just passing on the stuff from the older games adding unwanted elements like cheesy graphics,cheesy dialog,unbearable Anime style love story,killing the appearance of dante

Gilver FTW!
The graphics were pretty good in both games for their time and the gameplay was pretty good (though not as good as DMC3's gameplay), this, in my opinion, makes it a lot better than DMC2.

okay the graphics were good but the gameplay wasn't "innovative" neither in DMC 4 or DMC 2
Because DMC 4 just copy/pasted the gameplay from DMC3 and also the "Devil bringer" is supposed to be a scrapped idea from DMC 3 so yeah both games have 0 creativity or innovation in terms of gameplay and they both have a bad story

DMC 4 was very fun to play and I dont know what do you mean saying that devil bringer was scrapped from DMC3. I spent more than 150h on DMC 4 and to this day i am still watching the cutscenes on you tube because they were great. Same goes to DMC3 ofc. so as we see everybody can have diffrent opinion.

I think im sort of dimensional traveller lol
Im rather disagreeing with you, me as an DMC veteran was been in awe on DMC4, i liked to use Devil Bringer for most time but always that was been an way to too easilly in game. I been rather Dante user In DMC4 as I call Nero an character for beginners.
Im on your side, I liked DMC 4 cutscenes as I have all on mine old PC, as game is only playable on mine Laptop PC for now :/, I don't remember mine records in DMC 4 but i had over 100 hours of gameplay too

Didn't i mention that Devil bringer was Supposed to be a scrapped idea from DMC 3 ?? making DMC 4 0% creative
Well TBH DB was just for gamers who weren't used to dante because after a while nero gets repetitive and boring but dante has so many moves to do

Dante was hard to play not only because you was forced to change styles during fight but also it seems like enemies were created for Nero's battle style. It was just less fun to fight with Dante for me but still fun

The game was, in fact, geared towards Nero.

That's the point which killed DMC 4

DMC4, to me, didn't do a very good job of introducing a new character. For one thing, Nero was introduced as any other punk anime kid, who talked a big game, but just didn't have the proper mentality to back it up. When I see him taunting demons, it's pretty much Dante's style of taunting. I mean look at DmC Dante's taunts. Yeah, he's cocky like the original Dante, but his taunts are more amateur and lacking in skill, but it's different. Not copy and paste one liners like Nero has from Original Dante.
The other thing that irked me was Dante in DMC4. Dante was so corny and a complete clown, that I just couldn't take him as a devil hunter seriously. He acted as if he didn't give a damn about anything, and focused on only looking cool and not really making me believe that this was the same Dante who defeated a demon God. (Mundus) His attire was just atrocious to me. The whole western look was unnecessary in my opinion and I wish they could have thought of something more fitting to him. The clothes by them self looks good, but when on Dante it looks...ugh.
And finally; adding Dante into DMC4 in general. Dante to me shouldn't have even been in DMC4 if they were trying to go for something new. Capcom should have just come clean and said Dante's tale is told, and there's nothing more to tell from him. Plus Dante wasn't much help to Nero besides a few times. If Dante wasn't playable or even in DMC4, then I think Nero wouldn't be so looked down upon and would have been given more a chance then Dante, and Nero would have a bit more access to more weapons and styles to use.
But that's what I think.

Here i'm backing up your statement :-
Dante was dressed up like a drag queen IMO and he behaved like a he's having MPD
In short they just dumped the Anime cheese in DMC 4 making it one wreck of a game

I can just go on but yeah you'd get my point Nero's a stereotype anime Character who whines a lot and looks pretty

And the sad part is that DMC4 could have been like this.
