Maybe not a troll. Maybe it was an early plot idea that was stopped early on in the game's production.What. I can't see anything.
I sense a troll.
I don't see anything...though.Maybe not a troll. Maybe it was an early plot idea that was stopped early on in the game's production.
You're lucky. I can't see ANYTHING.I don't see anything...though.
Oh only one picture!
I see a Chinese kid happy about his meal.You're lucky. I can't see ANYTHING.
THANK YOU, still i don't understand what they are saying.Copy image url in a new tab. The pictures here are probably an anti-hotlink measure.
Yep, just seen it and yes, Nero and Vergil are father and son:blink:
I can, you have to copy/paste the link. I'll have it better translated, but the problem is still...Vergil would have been nine when Nero was conceived, because DMC4 is by the director's statement ten years after DMC3, when the Twins were 19, and Dante was NOT in his 40/50s in DMC4. The only way it works is if it turns out that Nero has no actual parents and is a "son" in the same way Kid from Chrono Cross was Schala's daughter; spiritually cloned/split off. Even then, that is horrible storytelling and I can see WHY it was dropped from the story totally and why only Bingo still pushed it.
Also, shouldn't this be in DMC4 or DMC GENERAL, not DmC?
It just seems so un-Vergil like. In the book, isn't mentioned that a prostitute was Nero's mother or something? If Vergil was going to have a kid, why would he choose a prostitute to be the mother. Besides, he seemed more into gaining power than doing that, and why wouldn't he have stuck around to raise the kid, at least to teach it how to use its demonic power. It just doesn't add up character wise.Ahh, nothing to be surprised about. We've known that this was a plot-thread that was cut from the game since the Deadly Fortune graphic novel. Dante hints to it in-game anyway, "about the [Yamato] staying in the family" and then leaving it with Nero.
Possible age discrepancies aside, this has always been a strong theory, even if many fans don't like it. And for what it is worth, the timeline has always been kind of fuzzy, so they could have retcon the amount of time that passed in-between the games.

It's not about DmC Vergil, this is DMC3 Vergil. I was just going by what was said about the book.I don't think it is a prostitute. "prostitute" refers to the mysterious background of Nero's mother. I guess she cannot accept his son and abandoned him. I guess Kat is Nero's mother. Maybe, Vergil raped her in revenge of Dante.
