Then better explain to me what I'm not getting. This is not a 'refuge for people who like DmC', it's just the DmC section. Everything that's related to DmC goes here. Because of that, I posted my comment here. It can't get any more logical than that.
Fine.
For the longest time, this DmC section
was the one place people who actually cared for the game could go. All the vitriol was so pervasive everywhere else, you couldn't express interest on YouTube, at GameFAQs, or most other Devil May Cry-related sites. Even NeoGAF was full of a lot of it. This community, however, didn't have its head so far up its butt, and while some members existed here who used to start sh!t in the section, people were mostly left to themselves and good discussions were plentiful - it's why I joined this place, because even most of the criticism was worthwhile.
That has since changed over the year since the game's release, but this is
still a place who really like DmC to feel comfortable. Some of are still somewhat gunshy about criticism, or just plain having to see people come in here to talk about what they don't like about DmC - it's a less evil version of the asshats who would follow DmC content just to sh!t on it.
Remember the joke about I made about going to Chicago and being surprised that people don't like the Packers? Maybe it's lost on you because you don't know football. The Green Bay Packers and the Chicago Bears have a rivalry, so you shouldn't be surprised to see people unhappy of a Packers fan in their city.
Similarly, why the hell would you be surprised your opinion is unpopular when you come here and surround yourself by people who love the game...?
The whole point of what I was getting as is how you said that "Not liking DmC is an unpopular opinion around here," where 'around here' I took to mean the DmC section of the forum (if that's not what you meant, then sorry). Again, of
course the opinion is unpopular in a place where
many people who love DmC congregate!
I don't care that you specifically posted this on the DmC Section. My problem with the location of the post is when you brought up how it's an unpopular opinion
here, on the section where DmC fans hang out.
Otherwise....
I think what he's saying is your opinion of disliking DmC is so unpopular because this is a DmC fan domain so of course people will disagree with you here.
Thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis.
"DmC fan domain" semantics aside, this particular section,
the DmC Section of the forum, is where people who like the game hang out. Don't be surprised to get the stink eye for not liking it.
