Honestly, I'm not sure about Dante either. I prefer DMC3 Dante over Nero but they squandered him in 4/anime. 5 brought him closer to how I felt in 3 but not enough to get super excited.

3/1 are good beginnings while 5 is a decent resolution to his story.

V/Vergil or someone new is where I'm leaning. They could change my mind on Nero- third times the charm but I'm not holding my breath. Honestly, V was wasted as Vergil's younger self. I'd switch him and Nero- V gets to be his own man while Nero is just younger Dante. Ironically he was more convincing and stood out while Nero didn't. Nero felt more of the same while V felt completely new/fresh. He was the tide that raised all boats- I wanted to see him with every character but Morrison/Patty. Hell, I wish he and Trish had a mission together- he made her less vague.
 
The only version of Dante I don't like personality wise is 2

1 was really good , the anime one sounded bored

3 was brilliant, 4 was a lot of fun and 5 was a mix of 1 and 4 so I loved him in 5 , he was fun but also more serious

Nero just annoys me , he has a lot of potential but he does so much whining and throwing a tantrum

He needs to grow up a lot
 
I find it laughable that nearly a year has passed, and a certain someone is still spouting B.S. that my critical review of their work was "slaughter without a hint of kindness or constructive criticism" and that it was based in jealousy. 1) I've never once felt the need to be savage in reviewing anyone's work, friend or otherwise, regardless of how much "better" they are doing than me or how much ass-kissing they're getting from other people, 2) I've got nothing to be jealous of, because while I have no delusions of grandeur, I'm confident enough in my own work to know I've actually put in the time and effort, and therefore haven't churned out a pile of burning garbage and 3) You must have some paper-thin skin if you think there wasn't an ounce of constructive criticism in there or that it was just a straight-up slaughter. Sweetheart, you don't even know the meaning of the word. You haven't had to deal with ****, and it shows.

But please, do go on assuming my criticism was based in jealousy. :rolleyes: It couldn't possibly be that I'm more learned in this particular field than you are, and therefore unable to ignore the number of GLARING errors contained throughout.

You do you, sook. Whatever helps you sleep at night. I take solace in the knowledge that a lot of impartial reviewers were a great deal more "savage" than you imagined me to be. Perhaps that will keep you humble.
 
Considering you are one of the most humble people I know , and have helped me with grammar and other aspects of fanfiction I have written

Mainly due to English being my second language , which I am grateful for by the way

I find it laughable that anyone thinks you are jealous , or that you would be malicious in your review and not constructive

If anyone is jealous in his scenario, it is the person doing the accusing


Anyway my rant is more simple , I am sick of having health issues lately , please can I have just one week where I fell healthy and feel my age lol
 
@ef9dante_oSsshea Thanks, Geoff. <3 This was definitely a hot-button moment for me, lol. It's not always possible, but I'm happy to help when I can, if I can. ^^ I'm sorry to hear you've been having health issues, though. :( Is it your back? I hope you're able to find some means of easing whatever pain you're in.
 
My back and my condition which is effecting my leg muscles too , plus I had blood tests done and have almost non existent vitamin d levels in my body so I was put on a supplement of altavita d3 for 6 weeks and made take 2 weeks off work to rest

I need to cut back my hours and get on top of my medication and health

The lack of sleep isn't helping me either
 
Like I've mentioned several times, I've got a bad alternating exotropia (an eye condition, one type of strabismus). I've had somewhat 6 surgeries in my life, but they've got no effect. Last time I was offered another surgery 3 years ago, but I rejected it, because the previous ones haven't succeeded either and I'm afraid of the risks.

Now I've got suspected pterygium in both of my eyes. It means I have to go to the surgery anyway. It has nothing to do with exotropia.

Talk about luck. :'(
 
That time of year when the tax man and the department of work and pensions wants all my information and they want it now.

But they want me to fill in forms that are about three billion pages long with the same questions repeated in slightly different ways to try and catch me out.

Here's the thing: to my knowledge, there is no cure for autism, developmental disabilities or learning disabilities. But please, by all means, make me fill out a week's worth of pointless forms so that a pencil pusher over in Wolverhampton can feel special.

If they take his disability allowance away, I will go absolutely ape.
 
There's a huge difference between something being fun and replayable and something being a f***ing chore.

DMC4 Mission 8 on DMD is something that's fun to replay over and over.
The Credo boss at the end of the level is like an orgasm at the end of a masturbation session, minus the after-fap guilt.

Being forced to get S rank on Hell and Hell in DMC5, especially after they made anal changes to how continues work is a f***ing chore.
Even if I feel happy about completing the challenge, it's more of a "phew, I'm glad I got that out of the way!" or "I'm never doing that s*** again".
 
No Moviebob, the original Sonic trilogy is not "decent". They're awesome platformers that stand next to the orinial Super Mario trilogy, you know-nothing-know-it-all, pompous contrarian. Do everyone favor, and stop trying to win street cred from the contranians or undermining other video games and their respective developers achievements.
 
FF7 Remake rumored to cost 60 ****ing euros per episode for a grand total of 120.

Smart, very ****ing smart. You pieces of ****. Are you ****ing kidding me, I refuse to believe there will be people actually buying them at full price. But the realist side of me already knows that the fanboys will flock to toss money at day 1, and there are already some people defending this bullcrap.

God forbid this becomes the standard practice with remakes.

Calm down. It is a rumor at this point.

If it comes real, then you can go angry. And I wouldn't either. We can agree that development cost money, even if it is a remake.

The game's development was pretty expensive for its time. I wouldn't be surprised if it is true with this remake. We're talking about a game that is very large scale. 3 disc remake? It's like you're asking for a development budget of over 60 Million. You know which game is about that much? GTA5.

If you think his takes on video games are bad, wait until you hear about how he thinks eugenics is a good idea and that it just "got a bad name" from the Nazis. (No joke.)

I'm well aware of that statement; he mentioned it in a video of his, in I want to say around 2012/2013. I know I stopped watching him around the time TMNT (2014) came out.
