The good and the bad

[darkslayer13]

Now i called the trigger based on how it seems. It can´t be a Devil or Demon trigger because demons form don´t include clothes (and they certainly don´t become red) or white hair as their demonic trait.

The best option to call it is Dante trigger because the idea with the white hair and red jacket is to make fans realize "OMG it´s classic Dante!!". Hence why i believe Dante trigger is the most suitable name.
The second to that comes Saiyan trigger because Goku´s hair changed when he transformed, and he also got new clothes (Super saiyan 4).
Then comes a new term called "Punk Trigger" which is just a random name i put considering DmC is a punk themed game. This name has nothing to do with the look of the transformation (so not a good term).

Then you can make generic names such as :

Crazy Trigger
Brutal Trigger
Rage trigger (DmC Dante looked really angry with his mouth opened and eyes closed)


I can only tell you that white hair and red jacket is not a Devil trigger.
I can also tell you that since DmC Dante is half angel i expect a Angel form/mode which will be more than appropriate to call a "Angel trigger".

And here´s my idea for Angel and Devil trigger (based on which stance your on):
Angel trigger: alot faster attacks.
Devil trigger (assuming demonic transformation): heavy damage trigger.

This builds on the concept of angel stance weapons being fast and Devil stance being slow but heavy hitter.

EDIT:
My idea about Angel and Devil trigger is great Should get paid for that!

The rule is it has to be descriptive and not stupid.

Dante Trigger: Stupid, he is always Dante.
Saiyan Trigger: Stupid, he is not a Saiyan.
Punk Trigger: Stupid, he is always a punk.
Names like this work as fan nicknames but are can't be the official name of anything that is supposed to be taken seriously.

Crazy Trigger: not descriptive as far as we know Dante is sane.
Brutal Trigger: not descriptive Dante does not become any more brutal when using it.
Rage Trigger: not desciptive this is ridiculously generic

Devil Trigger: very descriptive, preexisting term. Less descriptive if you ignore previous games but demonic power is still involved so it is still the most descriptive non-idiotic name avalible)

The rule is it has to be descriptive and not stupid.

Dante Trigger: Stupid, he is always Dante. He is always Dante but he is not DMC Dante which is what the transformation of the "DT" of DmC is.
Saiyan Trigger: Stupid, he is not a Saiyan. Let´s make him saiyan then joking.
Punk Trigger: Stupid, he is always a punk. Well trigger is a power boost, so Punk trigger means...
Names like this work as fan nicknames but are can't be the official name of anything that is supposed to be taken seriously.
I ain´t going to argue with that as what you say is right, but don´t expect me to take a "DT" that´s not a DT seriously either.

Crazy Trigger: not descriptive as far as we know Dante is sane. Crazy as in "This Party is getting Crazy!".
Brutal Trigger: not descriptive Dante does not become any more brutal when using it. He hits more damage no?
Rage Trigger: not desciptive this is ridiculously generic You can help me come up with a better name for the power boost then

Devil Trigger: very descriptive, preexisting term. Less descriptive if you ignore previous games but demonic power is still involved so it is still the most descriptive non-idiotic name avalible)
Bush is also a term that is very descriptive, but you won´t see me pointing at a tree and say "That bush is beautiful".
If you want to talk about non-idiotic things then calling a transformation that makes DmC Dante look like original Dante isn´t what we should pick as the topic.

Like I said, just abandon the 'Blabla Trigger'. It doesn't need to have the word 'Trigger' in it. Once you eliminate that, something better is bound to follow.

 

[darkslayer13]

the name Devil Trigger isn't ideal but it is the preexisting term and there isn't really anything better

fan nicknames have to sound similar to the official term or no one will know what you are talking about and none of us work at Ninja Theory so we can't change the official term.

True, but why would Ninja Theory hang on to the old 'Something Trigger'? Somebody should tell them that it isn't necessary to call it that. But you're right, of course. For the sake of the forums, it's best to use the Trigger word in conjunction with the other word.

Ninja Theory uses the term Devil Trigger because it works. the fact that it doesn't 100% fit doesn't make it worth their time to find a new name when they could be improving something more important.

As far as i am concerned DmC appeals to a different group than already DMC fans.

They are aiming at western gamers first and DMC fans second.


But hey if you think coming up with name for a power boost takes time then you don´t know what your talking about.

Til day i die i will continue saying "That is not a Devil trigger" that´s for sure And i have explained many times why it is not.

I hope you understand that

 

[Razyel]

Does anyone really care what they call it ?

 

[TyIquan_DmC]

It's Devil Trigger. It worked for Nero who didn't turn into a demon, it works here.

The appearance was never the point anyway, so whatever.

 

[Zilla]

I say We call it; 'Inner Demon-like Thing Making an Abrupt Appearance'. IDTMAA.

Sure to catch on.

You don´t know what your talking about, please don´t make me elaborate why i say this.
Instead go to DMC wiki and read up on DT and Nero.

@ Zilla:
Glad someone is bold enough to admit calling it DT isn´t suitable.

IDTMAA it is until NT comes up with a real devil trigger or a suitable name for the trigger.

 

[Sparda's rejected son]

There is still a very long wait for before DMC's release and I wanted to share what aspects of the game has got me excited and what is setting me off :

THE GOOD:


-Dante looks good: He actually does!! he isn't the Emo fag shown in TGS but a completely different character and I have no complains about him




- The combat seems to be good and free flowing according to many sources:


-Good music so far :
Combichrist - Never surrender
Sent to destroy



-Stunning Graphics: NT has given us some great backgrounds and facial expressions of the characters
-A badass boss battle gameplay footage: So we can expect all the boss battles to be epic

THE BAD:- The Devil trigger : This is'nt really bad but it really isn't a DT is it? To me it's like quicksilver with enemies floating in the air-Too much Satire: I dont know about u but I wanted DmC to have minimum involvement with politics and stuff.
Dialogue : Dante's dialogues are downright cheesy sometimes

"I'm gonna come over there and rip you apart"
"I'm Dante and you can call me Dante the demon killer"
These are just some of the aspects of the game and I may have missed out some so please Feel free to add to what has been written and i'll update it.
So what have u got to say on which aspects of the game has got u excited and which hasn't?

I agree 100%

. Why did I quote all of this to say so little? Good question...

That is the worst fan nickname ever and it is still and always will be Devil Trigger even if you refuse to use the proper term. It doesn't matter why you don't like the term it's NT's game they decide what to call things in it. ( BTW thinking up a name that isn't stupid takes a bit of effort but you wouldn't know that because you do not have the ability to create anything. You just whine about how things others create don't match your idiotic idea of the way things should be)

now now darkslayer play nice. Mcid is only saying that they dont like the DT. while i think its fine and dont see the problem. i mean it IS devil trigger. not transform into a demon trigger. the point of it was accessing your inner demon. new dante just change his apperance that much when he does it. but still even if you disagree i respect your right to do so.

so BOTH of you calm down and settle this without resorting to the lowest denominator.

The only one that doesn't know what they're talking about is you. You're simply making stuff up to suit your view of separating this game from the others.

 

[Tosto]

The Good:
-A fresh start to tell a more coherent story.
-The re-imaging of one of my favorite videogame franchises.
-Awesome Combat and Boss battles.
-Better platforming.
-More combo possibilities.
-No QTEs.

The Bad (or more like concerns):
-I would really like some epic music like the theme for the final boss battle in DMC3.
-While I don't mind the cursing, I really hope its not overdone.
-I hope Dante and Virgil are still twins.

As for all this talk about what the DT is or isn't suppose to be, I think its up to NT what it is. It's a reboot, so not everything is gonna be the same as it was in the original. As far as I'm concerned, if Dante doesn't thansform into a demon right off the bat that doesn't mean he wont have some sort of physical change. Maybe not as drastic as in the original canon but sup'm you'll see and know, "that's not human." I'm sure NT knows what they're doing so that means sometimes we have to be patient. I mean, you wanna play the game with all the story and plot twist given to you before you even start? The game is looking very promising so instead of flaming about it, you can at least say "I'll just wait and see."

 

[Zilla]

That is the worst fan nickname ever

You cut Me deep, man. I put at least 10 seconds of thought into coming up with that.

If you want to call a pear for apple then be my guest. All i am doing is pointing out that it´s wrong, that a pear is a pear and you know it based on the fruit´s appearance and taste.

Let me give you example of a whiner since you like to point at me and say i am one:
EXAMPLE
"DT sucks, it´s not a DT".

That is what a whiners comment would be, he or she says the DT sucks without elaborating on WHY he or she thinks because the whiners intention is not to explain him/herself in a logical manner. I have explained myself many times with many repeating illustrations to make you understand why i look at that power boost transformation that is called a "DT" is not a DT.

Looking past the thought of me being a whiner, i pointed out the best name for the trigger (a trigger = power boost in DMC serie ) would be Dante trigger. Is it stupid? Perhaps? But isn´t that what the trigger transformation is? A transformation that makes DmC Dante resemblance Dante from DMC aka original Dante?
And i REALLY can´t think of a better name for the DmC trigger (because it´s a trigger = power boost) than Dante trigger. I don´t think Zilla´s name for the DmC trigger is a good one, it´s far from what i would call great,but at least he knows that DmC trigger is not a Devil trigger. And that is why i replied to him in such positive way (not because of the name he made for DmC trigger).

Go back and read my posts in this thread, if i have not elaborated on why i say DmC trigger is not a Devil trigger, then feel free to call me a whiner But if i have elaborated to make my point clear, then please don´t call me that.

The only one that doesn't know what they're talking about is you. You're simply making stuff up to suit your view of separating this game from the others.

Devil triggers of DMC (Point #1: Proving the look of Devil trigger is what made them Devil):

POINT #2 Proving Nero´s Devil trigger has Devil to it, and why:

3:39 Nero´s takes on a Demonic form (Demonic red eye being most obvious)

And Nero is a descendent of Sparda according to Sanctus.
Nero needed Yamato to awaken his demonic form. He had demon blood in him that was very faint or sealed off because he wash´t a direct descendent of Sparda like Dante or Vergil.
That is why he told Dante "I need it/that" referring to Yamato.

Now i don´t know how Nero can be a Sparda descent but that´s what DMC 4 logic states so, and even if he wash´t Nero still takes on a demonic form by help of Yamato.

 

[TyIquan_DmC]

That didnt prove anything. We all know Nero has demonic blood. No one is doubting that. But his actual appearance didn't change. He didn't look like a demon. Therefore, looking like a demon is not a requirement of DT. Simply unleashing that power is.
