LoD Come Back!!!
Ok, i am tired of everyone complaining about people like me who say that DmC Dante look was based on Tameem or his ideas. Now i am not saying DmC Dante is entirely based off Tameem's thoughts or how he is as person. But things point to that he is the reason why DmC Dante looks like way he does.
Point 1 Tameem is a leader
He has power to decide what direction they will take on the game. And he has been the one who have represented Ninja theory ever since DmC was announced to Ninja theory.
Point 2 When Tameem speaks
Is he speaking for his whole team or only for himself? In a setence he said "I think" not "We". He keeps saying "I think". Should we expect that Ninja theory team have discuessed things throughly? If they have - how come Tameem who represents the team keep using "i think".
Other times when he speaks he uses the word "We" instead of "I". And Tameem's vocabulary and speech is pretty good - surely he isn't making a mistake when he uses "I think". Because that's probably HIS thoughts.
Point 3 "What was cool back then isn't cool no more"
How did Tameem or if he's speaking for everyone in his team come to conclusion that the stuff that was used in DMC 1 isn't no longer cool. Blade inspiration, The music, etc
I fail to see how a heavy smoking and beat up street brawler any cool. You may say "CoolDemon but that's your subjective opinion". But then i will say - how is Tameems (if he speaks for himself) view of cool not subjective?
If your gonna try to find out what's cool nowdays you would have do to alot of research. Punk movement and smoking was things that were cool "back then". I swear finding a punk looking in country where i live or someone saying "I am cool because i smoke" is like finding a needle in a haystack.
So if i can't find neither easily - how is it something that should be considered cool?
Another thing Tameem said "The goal is to redefine DMC to be cool in context of when it was released".
Point 4 Tameem and his hair
I think Tameem deserves respect for caring about his hair and trying new hairstyles. But it's obvious that he is someone who thinks alot about his hair.
In this video:
Notice 1:18
2:06
He is touching his hair areas.
1:53 His hands is partially covered with his shirt. DmC Dante
And about DmC Dante's hair Tameem says that there is a reason for it. And that reason is highly assumed to be that Dante goes from black hair to white because of his demonic powers. How contradicting - i thought Dante was born with white hair and his father's human form included white hair and that is the reason.
Now in DmC it's because DmC Dante powers make his hair go white? Wow that's a awesome meaning/reason!
Point 5 The similarities
They both smoke and look alike, and are related to UK somehow.
Are all of this just coincedence?
I wouldn't say so. Because as i pointed out Tameem uses "we" (Point 2) when he talks about something he and his team has discuessed, and "I" when he talks about things he himself have thought of.
And when asked by a reporter how he felt about the negative critism towards DmC here is the reply:
Tameen looked at me a moment and took a drag of his cigarette. Then without blinking, and without pausing to exhale the smoke from his mouth he said, "I don't care."
Why did Tameem reply "I don't care"? I would say it's because he felt hurt because Dante looking like him wasn't a coincedence.
The british flag is totally unecessary. If it's there to show that DmC was made by the british studio Ninja theory - why put it on the cloth of the character?
And if DmC world isn't in somehow a representation of real world, that it's a fictional world, wouldn't then it be contradicting to add the flag into the world? Because how would the DmC characters then speak about the "flag" on Dante's character if DmC world is fictional and not a representation of real world?
Would the DmC character say "Oh Dante what's that "thing"(flag) on your jacket?"
Dante would reply "Oh it's the flag of UK".
Other character replies "UK what's that?"
Dante "Oh just a country"
The flag is unecessary. Should we then expect a new flag on the DMC characters's clothes everytime a new game is made by a new studio?
And has Ninja theory put british flag on clothing or headgears of Monkey, Trip or Nariko? I am guessing no.
And smoking is not cool - so why is DmC Dante smoking if they intended to "update" and make DMC and it's character cool again in context with the release or production year?
Not once have i heard someone say "Smoking is cool". And smoking is clearly something they made DmC Dante do because they thought it's cool.
I don't smoke and never have. But i respect that people smoke because just like me people have a addiction - a weakness. But what i don't like or find cool at all is when someone smokes and thinks it's positive or if they blew smoke in direction of a non smoker. Smoking isn't cool:
Point 6 The white hair issue
Even Capcom supported anime of DMC is contradicting DmC:
And if DmC Dante was supposed to be a totally new character then it's not necessary to explain why DmC Dante has black hair. Because that's what Tameem said "There isa reason why bla bla".
Not trying to discuss that "They are gonna replace DMC DAnte!" - that was discuessed and proven to be not the case. But just it's weird if DmC Dante is a new character why Tameem wants to explain why he has black hair and not white lol.
Now and then:
DmC Dante has been changed more so that he doesn't look like Tameem. But i believe that first time we saw DmC Dante it was a Tameem version.
A LOT of what you said is either irrelevant or has just as much of a chance of being the exact OPPOSITE of what you said. For example, when it comes to his hair, Tameem was probably very excited about getting the chance to carry on the torch of this amazing series, so he made his hair look like the redesigned Dante, to show his excitement and how much he wants to endorse the game. Nothing wrong there at all. Lots of game companies do that and similar things. Guess what, if Dave Jaffe decided to go on stage with a bald head and a giant red tattoo, we wouldn't be saying, "what an asshole, he totally made Kratos look like himself. This game sucks". Seriously, back off a bit there, because it seems as if you're misreading that. As for the "We" vs "I" thing, for all you know, NT reached a decision TOGETHER and he was showing his opinions as to how that decision was mutually reached. Another thing, we all know that it was CAPCOM who said they wanted to go in this kind of direction. Perhaps this was Tameem saying why he thinks CAPCOM made that decision. Again, towards the "cool" thing, that could very well have all been decisions made by the company as a whole instead of Tameem. You're making it sound like the man is a ****ing dictator, grow up. Let's see, ah the British Flag. We've been over this a hundred times, the flag is only there as an homage to where the company is from. Guess what, Kojima does this in Metal Gear and Inafune does it in Dead Rising. Get real man, you're making it sound like they're only doing this to **** people off. They just want to pay their respects to where they're from. That's like saying that anytime an easter egg is in a game, it makes the game worthless because it doesn't "fit" or the company is being arrogant. Want to know why Trip, Nariko, and Monkey don't have a Union Jack? It's because it wouldn't fit in the game universes they're from! You seem to be an intelligent person, do you really need someone to spell that out for you? Finally, as for Tameem saying he doesn't care, let's look at it this way. The man has a game that he is the director for. He has a ****ton more work to do on the game. Do you think he will respond by drastically changing **** that people are complaining about when they literally have no idea what's going on in the game? He is a man who doesn't let backlash get him down. Does that make him arrogant? No! Does it make him a prick? Hell NO! It makes him like everyone else, pushing through the bad and showing that it doesn't affect you. He is just trying to make an enjoyable game here, lay off a bit
