Stylish Nero's Future Version of DmC2 (Characters)

Stylish Nero

We Dem Boys!!
Okay my strong goal is to become a game designer but work for my own dev team and me and a couple friends agreed to form a dev team after college and start small and work our way up (we even have a couple titles planned out) as we get new workers and get bigger.

I still don't know much about making games so I'm going to college to major in that and learn more.

With DmC's future unknown I decided or thought hey what if DmC goes on say a 5-10 year hiatus or enough time for my team to get big enough for say Capcom to hire us to make a DmC2. Now I decided to put myself as director and thought how I would make DmC and here it is.

This isn't like most DmC2 predictions where its people thinking how DmC2 should turn out but still wants NT as the main directors....NOOO...this is DmC2 not made by NT but DmC2 made by (I can't insert our companies name because I promised my friend to avoid it being stolen and licensed). This time I'm going in depth with even the gameplay, stage design, and more outside just story and characters. Also since this could potentially happen (well maybe) I won't go into detail about everything (especially story) and say it could happen.

Okay the 5 sections are characters, story, gameplay, enemies, and stage/settings.

A. Characters.

In this game will feature Dante, Nero, Phineas, Lucia, Arius, Trish (now renamed Beatrice), Argosax, Jester, Matier, and one angel character known as Sariel (the angel of guidance)Kat will be left out for cost purposes and due to so much characters I don't see much use for her. Vergil will explain later.

Dante: This time we will feature Dante but he will be redesigned to look more like this. This looks drastically similar to one old concept art for DmC Dante but a slight change up on the coat and well a more DMC like hairstyle or a long version of the hair in white hair DmC Dante costume. Okay other than that he is pretty similar to SMT Dante or lets say a more younger version of SMT Dante in terms of personality. He turned the old wrecked Order base into his demon hunting shop (Devil May Cry) and he takes jobs to hunt demons and is drastically similar to his DMC1 Dante in this regards (he isn't like DMC3 Dante nor is he a lazy slouch like DMC anime and 4 Dante) for he is more enthusiastic about taking jobs and really enjoys his job. He buys stuff with his money earned such as a motorcycle, drumset, guitars, and even a large wide plasma screen TV and surround stereo so he can watch his shows and keep an eye out on the news for demonic activity. He even has a room to hide his extra stuff like his motorcycle, any items he gets, weapons, he even has a weapon making room where he makes or customize his weapons, and whatnot and other miscellaneous uses. A bathroom and a bedroom. He even has some extra guestrooms. Kat sends him stuff like food, special packages such as treats, candy, flowers, and friendly stuff as well as messages telling him to do well (she is away somewhere doing God knows what). However, despite living a good life and being a renowned devil hunter and having fun hunting demons he not only misses his family but seems to notice he is becoming less human every day and his demon side is overcoming/corrupting his angel side and he might become full demon as he notices everything he looks himself in the mirror and he soon notices he is losing the ability to feel certain emotions such as love and sympathy. One day on the news he noticed something really odd (will go into that later) and gets a call from someone pertaining to what he saw on the news. This kickstarts his new adventure. PS. This time Dante is voiced by either Troy Baker or Robin Atkin Downes (thought I was going to pick Tim Phillips....pffffttt get out of here:troll:)

Nero: This Nero is more of a street punk who is a lot like DmC Dante when he was young minus being tortured. Nero is a cambion this time around (like everyone has been saying) but he doesn't have his demonic arm (yet) but his arm is experiencing rather odd abnormalities such as intense pain and glowing symbols. He is a runaway from Fortuna City who Dante finds on the streets of Ouroborous City (on his mission). He is 13 years old and is rather brash as he reminds Dante of himself when he was young. He is very reckless but shows that he cares a lot, he even tells Dante about this girl he likes (Kyrie) and he wants to get strong to protect her by joining a demon hunting organization (will get into that later). He too is an orphan and doesn't know who is parents are (will get into that later) and he doesn't know if he is a cambion but displays inhuman strength that even surpasses Dante and has abnormally white hair. He is voiced by Johnny Yong Bosch for he can play a youth voice really well (play Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Storm 3 as Yagura in English and you'll see).

Lucia: In this one she is half angel and half human (don't know what to call her since NT f*cked up the names) and is a Vie de Marli which are a faction of human agents assigned by the angels to help aid them in the battle/war against the demons. This faction consists of mainly cambions and nephilim as well as half angels and half humans (mainly supernatural human beings who joined this cause for the sake o mankind) and they fought outside the perimeters of Limbo City (usually in more open space areas like in the middle east, Africa, and even down south to avoid getting humans involved much so highly populated areas were ultimately avoided) and that is why you didn't see angels in DmC. However most of the Vie de Marli were eradicated during the wars over the centuries and the angels mostly fled since demons had the upper hand apparently. Only a few remain. She is rather serious and can be very cold and even full of herself and thinks she do everything on her own without anyone's help especially a man's (cough*Dante*cough) and dislikes people looking down on her. She can be very fierce and battle hungry. She is voiced by....I don't know.

Phineas: He is back and is freed but with nowhere to go lives with Dante in his shop in one of his own room that he customized and decorated to suit his character. He tends to be a word of wisdom for Dante and gives him advice but usually Dante never knows he is there since Phineas is rather quiet and Phineas never leaves his room and only on a few rare occasions but he does somehow plays the role as a source of information for Dante and somehow gets info from somewhere that helps out Dante. He even likes kids (Nero) and can even be a good baby sitter for Nero when Dante doesn't want him around and even helps Nero realize his demonic heritage and potential (just like Dante) and he begins to talks about the precious thing about humanity to Nero and tells Nero how Dante envies him since he can easily feel emotions like love and hope while Dante is slowly becoming more and more demon as he gets stronger. Phineas almost knows everything and can even be a good source on anything demonic and angelic. Same dude voices Phineas no need to change him.

Trish/Beatrice: Now renamed Beatrice is a full demon like Lilith and a former mistress of Mundus but she ditched him because she felt that he didn't love her but just wanted her to birth his next Overlord so he tossed her aside for his other whores (Lilith). Unlike Lilith is she quite beautiful for she coincidentally resembles Eva in a humanoid like form (she might have curly red hair or not) but has a secret demonic form that works like a Devil Trigger where she changed some key features to unleash her true power. I'm still debating if she is blonde like old Trish or a red head to resemble DmC Eva as she serves as a proxy love interest for Dante and for him to embrace his demon side if he ever wants to find happiness with himself. She is rather mysterious and isn't shown that often (she comes in mid-way into the story) and just walks aloft and is usually alone contemplating things. Believe it or not she is like Phineas (a demon with a heart or isn't like other demons for she can feel compassion and love) but even as a demon all she wants is love whether its from a demon, human, or angel) and through her Dante can soon understand why Sparda betrayed his demon followers....okay if anything Dante sees Sparda more in her than Eva (soooo.....blonde it is...Lucia can be the red head that reminds him of his mother). However, Beatrice is a succubus (nothing like Poison) where she takes the form of the person of a beautiful women to seduce men so her finding love would be rather difficult as she can never find a suitable human male (cause well they're either weak or she has to hide the fact she is a demon) and well all demon males are power hungry mongrels and angel males don't want anything to do with her leaving her to Dante and Arius (will explain that later). She can fight (will explain that later) but I have no idea who should voice her.

Arius: The main villain of DmC2 is a rich human business man who was a former Order scientist/researcher/sorceror who left a bit before the story of DmC started and prior to DmC2 started up a rich business known as Ouroborous Co. which is a multi-billion dollar corporation engaged in creating various weapons and products meant for dealing with the supernatural since due to the events of DmC and since people now know about demons, he uses people's hysteria and rising interests in demons to make a quick profit and quickly rise to the business ladder. He left the Order because he felt the fight against the demons were pointless and he only joined to gain info on them via the Order to somehow to gain an advantage and strive in this demon runned world. After leaving the Order he also gained some loans from Mundus to kickstart a company and played by the demons rule but on their terms so he formed an alliance with them almost like a collaborator but due to his rather powerful sorcery and alchemy skills he even rivaled many strong demons and Mundus considered a worthy asset in the future so he decided to help him out. With Mundus's fall and the exposure of demons he used that to his advantage to make Ouroborous the way it is now and turned a rather a poor city that was totally bankrupted and financially ruined by the demons (you can say like Detroit or any poor city in the US) and helped improved it (into Ouroborous City) with his business that strongly strive. He not only was a powerful human sorcerer but a genius business man and scientist and researcher who used his knowledge he earned from the Order to help in his research and experiments. Ouroborous City is also the last human settlement for demons since well they're basically being hunted by devil hunters and a lot of people in Ouroborous city is a demon in disguise as some of the humans were captured by Arius and his demonic goons and altered and experimented on and either became failed experiments or became his demonic pawns or minions. The demons that works for Arius are usually his creations or under his control and has even the demons fooled into thinking he is protecting them when he is just using them and even gaining from profits from making tools designed to find and kill them (well demons outside of Ouroborous City but the demons in Ouroborous City don't know that). A lot of recent Devil Hunting corporations uses and buys Ouroborous tech and weaponry to hunt down demons but Dante...so Dante has some competition. Even with his new found wealth and power he wants to expand his own empire turning it into a monopoly and even desires immortality but he knows that one day all the demons in the human world will one day disappear so he desires to use an ultimate power (will explain what that is later) to ensure his business strives forever and if he does run out on demons to kill he even contemplates hunting angels as a profit. He also has a strong goal to eliminate any Devil Hunter that doesn't buy his equipment (Dante). He is very manipulative, cruel, and lacks zero compassion and humanity. When he was younger he lost a loved one, a wife, to demons and blamed both demons and angels (angels for their incompetence for not doing their job) as well as the weakness of humans and human emotion so he discards all emotion for the sake of research, money, power, and eternal life. Unbeknownst to him he is being used by............... I have no idea who should voice him....got any clues.

Jester: In this one Jester and Arkham are 2 separate entities. Jester is a clown like demon that works for Arius and is full aware of his plans but he doesn't care as long as he has fun. He is quite sadistic and loves to party. He is a mixture of the old Jester and DMC3/4 Dante. He was once a surviving Nephilim who turned into a full demon abandoning all sense of emotions craving only death, murder, destruction, and agony of others for his own sick sadistic thrills and desires. He represents what Dante could become as he relates to Dante as he was once like him and tried to fight his metamorphosis but soon began to embrace his demonic and destructive urges and Dante will eventually do the same. He is rather very powerful because of being a fully evolved demon from a nephilim (I saw how Vergil became more powerful through some unknown corruption process in VD and thought hey a Nephilim becomes more powerful as they become a full fledged corrupted demon that can even rival a demon king in power. It better explains what the hell happens in VD). He takes everything as a joke and at Ouroborous Co he serves as the tour guide and even mascot as he gives people tours of the building and company and even city as well. He is a big iconic mascot in the city and even around some parts of the world. He even owns his Saturday morning cartoon for kids so you an see his face everywhere. Teaching kids one laughter a day is a good medicine so laugh boys and girls. He can be very annoying and even very creepy and etc. I was thinking reuse Jester's old voice or Mark Hamil.

Matier: This granny is still Lucia's adoptive grandmother and Vie de Marli as well as a human with some demonic blood in her veins and gifted by the angels with a long life (150 years) to train other Vie de Marli and even adopt them to train them just like Lucia who she found. Despite not being related to Matier she treats Lucia like a granddaughter and Lucia vice versa. She taught Lucia of her angelic heritage and helped her honed her abilities. She is very nice and old so you get the drift but can be very grumpy, strict, and kickass. So she is like the badass grandma that can usually whips manners into Dante and Nero when they act up and can relate well to Phineas. She leaves her little home/orphanage on the small beach island (Dumary Island and Dumary Manor) to help Dante in Ouroborous. She once met Sparda and when he was a demon general before meeting Eva he was a kind and compassionate demon and she even knew Eva as well as Lucia reminds her of Eva. I got no voice either.

Argosax: In this one he/she/it is a nephilim....the first and ultimate nephilim. Argosax plays a big role in Arius plans since nephilim has the abilities to crossover from the human world and demon world (says Phineas) so Arius wants to use that ability to help him with his business but Argosax has powers that even surpasses Mundus's...however it hasn't mature yet. Argosax was a nephilim of the first demon king or the one before Mundus and a captured angel that this demon king raped and impregnated and gave birth to Argosax whose duty was to take over as the new ruler of the demon world and end the war between the demons and angels but Mundus killed his father and took over and soon imprisoned Argosax deep down in one of his prisons for Nephilim. Argosax is androgynous in nature so its both male and female and can change between sex and has a more physical appearance (still demonic with some angelic features) this time around. It is rather emotionless due to being sealed away it never realized its full potential until recently being freed by Arius who found it after Mundus's downfall and experimented on it to awaken its full potential (become full demon) and use its power to achieve immortal and use it as a powerful infinite power source. Due to Mundus its growth was stopped or halted at young age so it behaves like a child and doesn't speak because it never learned. Mundus to avoid Argosax being a treat didn't allow him to grow up, isolating him from everyone, and having him locked away made him unable to adapt and Mundus tried to killing him but Argosax was practically indestructible so he sealed his physical body in a series of seals that looks like that huge mush in DMC2 Argosax and the only way to break these seals are through the Arcanas/seals to awaken Argosax from his confinement and have it realize its true power. It doesn't speak so it doesn't need a voice.

Sariel: Okay a new character. He is an angel character who is a high ranking general but who was an angel who somewhat respected Sparda but dislikes all demons and even hates Eva or thinks lowly of her for well banging a demon and having nephilim children. He is the angel of guidance so he guides on the battlefield and is a great leader and tactician as he fought Sparda plenty of times and considers him a worthy rival but he also believe or not is aiding Arius in his schemes or is manipulating him. His main goals are still unknown even to me at this point but I'm still working on it (I'm thinking he wants to obtain Argosax's power so he can overthrow the current leader and become the new leader of the angels and even rule the demons and humans). He is quite powerful and even rivals Dante's power and even wants to see if Dante has surpassed his father. He even has some connection to Vergil. He is potentially the true villain of this game. I got Nolan North....but I feel I can do better.

Finally.....Vergil only appears as a quick (hidden) boss fight as he appears all corrupted and stuff. After beating the game and unlocking some stuff he appears as a bonus boss fight (similar to say the Henri boss fight in NMH or Rodin in Bayonetta). Before the fight he reveals a shocking plot twist (not going to reveal it) and the 2 fight as Dante now knows Vergil is completely corrupted.

Okay that was long and will cover say Gameplay and/or Story in another thread most likely at another time.
 
So basically a DMC5.

Oh gee I didn't know Vergil, Arius, & Jester were still alive. Lucia is half angel half human now why I never. Trish was renamed Beatrice since when? Wait why is Nero younger now? How does Dante know Phineas? Egad! Angels where? Why is Dante turning into a full demon?

My yes your right it seems more like a sequel to DMC than one to DmC. I know right:P

You got Gypped Jones! :troll:

 
great. i can see where you're going with this, but please, don't make the same mistake NT made. you might have been one of those who felt betrayed when DmC came out, but don't alienate fans of DmC like NT did with the reboot. if you're going to stick with the continuity of DmC, some things should be changed slightly. but thats just my 2 cents on your game. great job though

Oh please I wasn't betrayed I was DISAPPOINTED

Disappointed in a game I was hyped up for disappointed me on all levels (maybe not level design and some degree art) but yeah.

I only hated the game after I played it. I was dead excited for it.....excited for nothing.

Oh please its not like I changed anything major. The mythos and everything is the same. Its not like I chose Reuben Langdon to play Dante now did I. No I chose 2 optional voice actors who I think are FAR SUPERIOR voice actors than Tim Phillips and can pull of Dante pretty well hell I even advocate for Troy or Robin to even play DMC Dante (after DMC2) cause I feel that Reuben (like he said) would have trouble voicing a more serious or mature Dante than party boys DMC3/4 Dante (I mean he can do DMC1 and anime Dante pretty well too). I even think Robin and Troy are better voice actors than Reuben too.

Well since I live in America its still being made by a Western developer so what is the problem?

i feel as if you were taking what i was saying a bit too...harshly. let me rephrase in the best way i can. too many classic characters are in your sequel. a lot of great plot points, but (from what i tried to envision your game as) it feels too much like a classic DMC game and not a DmC game. ok? i still haven't heard about your gameplay and designs yet.

But what is a DmC game?

I thought DmC was also DMC and the 2 can correlate and people have made threads of characters from DMC that they would like rebooted.

Geez I guess I should mention all the bosses are new character (well not the main ones) plus I didn't cover the 3 elemental angels (Ramiel, Nathaniel, and Sachiel) who are bosses that are relevant to the plot.

I mean since when did the past DMC games had rape, Nephilim (half angels, half human), and I thought it was a reboot if it was an whole other game series that has nothing in common with Devil May Cry so why is it called Devil May Cry.

So how does it feel too much like a DMC game and not like a DmC game?

Granted I really don't care. I care about making a great sequel to DmC, a reboot about DmC. I mean I thought Capcom wanted to appeal to the old fanbase too.

Plus as a game designer you don't make games for the fans, you make it as you see fit...isn't that what Tameem said "You shouldn't make games for the fans" or something.

My yes your right it seems more like a sequel to DMC than one to DmC. I know right:P


Considering no one wants to believe Vergil is dead, you could bring him back to life. Arius could have returned from the dead due to controlling the arcana temporarily, just to bring back Arakam and Jester as separate beings.

True Lucia being half angel would be odd, but then again so was the fact that her DT was more an angel then a demon. Besides I doubt many would care since DMC2 seems to have been skipped over so if anything, she could say she's part demon but she was actually thrown away because she was half angel.

Trish being renamed isn't too odd. People can change their names.

Nero being young = Age spell?:lol:

Dante could have known a guy name Phinias from years ago. even back before DMC3.

This wouldn't be too odd since if there's demons, there's obviously angels.

Why is he? Seems like he's throwing away what shed of his other half he's trying to hold on to. I always feel like Dante's human side isn't regarded enough since he's a giant beetle power ranger in DMC3.

But this just observing is all. No meaning to offend.

i'm no game designer. i'm just a writer. and i get that completely. if i'm not making sense tell me, i'm not myself right now. but the whole DMC game is this and a DmC game is that, i find that kind of stupid myself, but to avoid conflict i just go with it. but they're really the same thing and something extremely different to me.
 
I thought we were discussing your game, not the difference between DmC and DMC.

Point but many people here assumes that with the end of DmC and Dante's hair turning white is him turning into the old Dante or even how Alex Jones as how DmC is just a retelling of Dante's origin stories of he becomes the iconic Devil Hunter.

I mean I thought my game was a natural evolution of that process but all the while continuing with a high quality storytelling that improves and adds more to the DmC mythos and world that DmC fans love.

Hey I can make a thread about my Hypothetical DMC5 and you'll see its not as similar to the DMCs before but noone would care since DMC is a diseased dog and any idea will help it while DmC is a fresh new born in which it must be kept cherished and filter out any idea that doesn't seem its style just cause that is how NT did it so the other game must be exactly like it to.
 
I thought it was a good start. i would lean more towards Troy baker as Dante and Robin Atkin Downes as Sparda.

I would probably explain Kat's absence. Only problem i had was that your dante doesnt really fit where the ending of the first game leaves him so i would still deal with the fall-out of that end because that ending is a game changer inhistory and shouldnt be forgotten like temen-ni-gru in the old games.

Funny. I love how Alex Jones seems to think "Look his hair's white! He'll turn into his old self now!" Really? White hair does not suddenly make him old Dante.

I mean I thought my game was a natural evolution of that process but all the while continuing with a high quality storytelling that improves and adds more to the DmC mythos and world that DmC fans love.

But you're adding way too many characters into one game. You got to be a bit more natural with the character adding. Also, this Dante shouldn't don the red coat right out of the first game. That's just appeasing to a fanbase, not making a good game. He should get it for a more symbolic reason like "he wears a red coat because it reminds him of his mother." or "his coat turned red from the blood of his demon enemies." As for characters, I'm kid of sad at the fact Kat's not in it. I actually liked Kat, she didn't need to be a fem fatele the entire game.

Yeah, that's how I see it. Only to me, DmC is that baby already wearing piercing on their ears and has a fohawk.

Well I was going to mention that the game takes place 3-5 years after DmC so a lot of time has passed and I can't spend too much time (in cutscenes).

Well I guess I wasn't clear about Dante being envious of Nero due to Nero being part human, something Dante wished his was (reference to the ending of DmC when Vergil told he could never be human since he never was human) since after Kat left to do her own thing Dante began to feel alone and not have much to any human interaction anymore and due to his dedication of slaying demons all he ever does is kill demons and soon he realized he is becoming more demonic as time passes as his demon side is corrupting his angel half.

Plus this relates back to how DmC never explored his angel half at all and since the game is well called Devil May Cry I used that as a way to explain it wasn't explained at all as a way to signify the angel half was never relevant and tie the 2 warring races together as how in the old DMC and well......religion a demon was just a corrupted angel and what if a plot point in DmC was Dante or nephilim's angel becomes corrupted allowing them to fully realize their full power and surpass even a demon king and this also explains why Mundus were afraid of Nephilims and how they were the only ones who can kill him apparently despite not being shown a more interesting feat of the Nephilim (especially through Dante and Vergil) that can slay Mundus and uses Argosax as how this prime hysteria started.

Okay, that sounds good. But you should also explain Kat's absence as Kat has a large fanbase, and you'll have to explain that. I also like your interpretation of Dante being jealous of Nero. But as DmC has shown, you don't have to be human to have human emotions. Such as its been for Sparda, and it should be the same for Dante. Still I think its a good internal struggle.

Yeah that sounds good. It would give more to the Angel exploration.
 
Yeah, that's how I see it. Only to me, DmC is that baby already wearing piercing on their ears and has a fohawk.

You know I only add in like new 6 characters (I don't really count Argosax and Vergil isn't part of the main story).

Plus outside the evil trio (Arius, Jester, and Sariel) which I though a human, demon, and angel as villains was cool and could spice things up a bit.

Plus Lucia....is a playable character outside Dante she is there and I need a love interest (Beatrice) and a character Dante can relate to (Nero). I even want Nero to assume the role of Raiden from MGS as a more rookie guy who wants to be like Dante and admire him so him becoming well Nero is more natural and expected. Matier is rather important to Lucia's character arc and even plays a role in Dante's as well.

You see all these characters are neccessary or that is how made it.

Yeah I see that. I think that's nice for Nero and Dante. Nero wants to be like Dante and be strong, but all along, Dante wanted to be like Nero in having a small shed of humanity in him.

I can't take Jester as serious for a demon villain as I just see him as comic relief.

I don't think you should make so many characters playable as its going to get a bit confusing with gameplay aspects if they all play differently and need different strategical tech.

As for Beatrice, will she be taking the exact roll as Trish as in will she look like Dante's mother? If so, that's where Dante could finally get his red coat if using the "red reminds me of my mother" theory I thought of.
 
Yeah that sounds good. It would give more to the Angel exploration.

Yeah I was mostly paying attention to VD on how Vergil apparently became corrupted to gain more power due to the fact he cut all ties to human world and tossed aside his emotions so I used that as a plot point as a total corruption of nephilims = gain more power = losing human emotions. Lets not forget Dante went berserk and was about to kill off his own brother if it wasn't for Kat. Kat allowed him to find his inner humanity or emotional ties but with her gone it begins to struggle and its a reference to how DMC Dante felt extremely lonely when he lived alone before meeting Trish and when she left fell into depression again.

However, Dante as a high leveled and maturing nephilim is undergoing a selective process is which he is becoming more demonic as his demon side is taking over his angel side and corrupting him into a full blown and OP demon (similar to what happened to Vergil but slower) and a negative side effect is him slowly losing his humanity but that is why Lucia, Matier, Nero, Phineas, and Beatrice are there to help Dante overcome this internal battle and they each represent a form of human interaction for Dante: Lucia (a sister...pride/respect), Nero (a brother...protection), Beatrice (a potential lover....love), Matier (a grandmother...humor), and Phineas (uncle...compassion) all attributes average demons lack. Then you have Jester who is also there for the LOLs but to serve as the opposite role of these characters to make Dante's struggle all the more harder, to break him physically (because he is no joker, he too is a nephilim who fully undergoed the process) and mentally (to show Dante what he will or might become...a demon).

Also, what you said about demons can have emotion too that is what Beatrice is there for too as she examplifies Sparda to Dante and why a demon would want love. She is more comparable to Sparda than the previous Trish was comparable to Eva.

The strongest themes in my game are emotions and bonds and how they can overcome any struggle.

Also Sariel is to express how even angels can be as heartless and uncompassionate as humans and demons.

Hmm, interesting. Sounds good so far.
