People say the story is bad but don't know the story. How can one criticize something if they don't know what it is. If you can't understand the story in fundamental level of being able to understand why Donte acts the way he acts. Understanding that at age 7 he lost his parents, his mother was seemingly killed in front of him, His memories wiped and hunted by demons ever since. If you can play the game and actually learn something maybe you'll see a solid story that could of had some changes in terms of Vergils Character. Understanding why Vergil seemingly had no form of humanity. Understand both brothers aren't human what so ever, that's very important to consider because Donte isn't human and he had a intensely traumatic child hood and yet he only became an asshole? Why is that? And Vergil seemingly went through the same thing yet Became so different its like he voided out humanity. Donte lived amongst humans ...the bad ones and still some how adopted human characteristics. If you can understand this then you know I just gave you a compelling story that is what you call Ninja Theory's Devil May Cry. The introduction to Vergil character is lacking depth because why is Vergil so cold and calculated and at the end we see he respects humans like mere pets to him. Vergil seemingly accepted that he isn't human and he himself is voided of any for of Humanity. The question is why. That right there is an example of good criticism because the only problem with Ninja Theory's Devil May Cry is Vergils Character and his back story leading to The End its unexplained. So if you read this you know very well that most criticism about ninja Theory is simply nostalgia cope and no one actually gives this game fair criticism its just hate because its not the original. Everyone knows the combat is solid yet no one knowledgeable of the story.
