Soon i'll have the classic DMC trilogy (livestream)

DMC2 was hard until I started playing it.
I tried to play it seriously then I understood how ****ed up it was and just maxed out Ebony & Ivory, best decision ever in a game.

Skill? What is this skill you speak of? Everyone knows that guns will be the only style you'll need in this game.
 
I didn't even write skill or mention skill. What are you talking about?

I'm just gonna come out and say it, I find DMC2 the hardest of the series when not trying to overuse guns. Some of the enemies are quite tricky (like the flying goats)

I think it's amongst the hardest because I have a hard time staying awake. But true that, they kinda made many flying enemies in the game, and with the aerial controls of your melee weapon being quite bad it's tough.
But that's like, artifical difficulty as people say. Fight birds only using earthquakes when you might as well throw things at them.
It's more like they built the game around the fact that you are going to be shooting, and you are going to be shooting alot. Like the infested helicopter, or the bosses which constantly uses pushback abilities as soon as you get close, or the massive space around most things.
So not using the guns wouldn't make the game hard, just more tedious or annoying.

Worst thing of all, style keeping is incredibly easy. Hit a sword combo, spam guns and keep your style at its level as long as your hitting something, walk to the next nearest enemy, dash in for a combo, then spam guns, never losing the current level of your style bar.
 
I never really found it hard, but just tedious.

DMC2, as Gorbashou said, prides itself on its gun play, and sword play is more of an accessory. But I also kinda liked that about DMC2. It didn't let you do aerial combos that easy and you had to be precise with those kicks and time them right. Its funny, cause I pretty much spammed those guns in DMD mode when i needed to, but mostly relied on my sword as much as I could.
 
When you get to DMC2, try the million stab pause combo in DT. But do it like this;
Attack > Attack > Pause/DT > Attack (Million stab) > Deactivate DT as soon as the attack animation starts
(I think it's two hits then pause, it might be three though but just use the same logic of DT out/in)
It's the most overpowered technique in the game ;)
