The supernatural war's stage is set.

[Chancey289]

So just thinking randomly again and seeing where could DmC possibly take us if it continues. I already said a while back how an insane broken Sparda could become the villain but replaying the end of DmC made something click in my head. The world of Limbo collapsed into the real world and now the like Dante said, "it's the beginning of the end for the demons."

In DmC it looks like the demons had the upper hand in this supernatural war and quite frankly they basically won because they were controlling the world. Angels are nowhere in sight in DmC because the demons must have figured out a way to take them out of the picture. When Dante and Vergil step in they upset this balance the demons established in their favor and completely broke it. Now demons aren't so safe or hidden anymore. DmC ends with much work still left to be done and the potential for Dante to become the Legendary Hero.

Sparda in the original series defeated Mundus's legion and defended humans in this massive supernatural battle. Look at DmC. With the demons foundation breaking from under them Dante and the angels who I assume stand for good can now figure out some way to fight back with Dante standing on the front line in a battle to take back the world. Dante then goes down in history as a Legendary Hero who helped defeat a legion of demons saving the world. Just like Sparda. Then the more I think about it the more I think a Devil May Cry game revolving around the idea of a massive battle happening can actually make a pretty freaking epic and fun video game. Definitely the Devil May Cry on its most massive scale. What do you think about my random ideas and speculation?

I thought this as well.

However, I don't think the angels would want to help a nephilim (An Angel AND demon) as he is tainted and not perfect like them. I always believe angels have this law where they are always right and humans are wrong in question.

But a way in a Devil May Cry game would definitely make for an interesting one.^_^

According to Phineas, Nephillim were once a thriving race and since one has literally defeated their most powerful enemy I don't think the Angels would really be so quick to dismiss Dante for that fact. But just the idea of Angels having prejudice against what Dante is could add an interesting story element. You can have quite a few angels iffy working with someone who shares the blood of their enemies. Especially if Sparda does become the villain it's not only working with someone who shares this taboo like existence but the son of the worst threat since Mundus.

Don't forget that the angels might also have harsh judgment on Dante because his mother, Eva, who was one of their own, betrayed them by falling in love with a demon (which is the reason, I'd assume, she gained the infamy of being a "whore", and I don't see how angels would see that any differently than what demons did).

So, in short, what angels might think is this: demon father + fallen angel "whore" mother = inpure and unholy child whom angels shall never associate with.

That too. All this sounds like a Devil May Cry I'd sign up for.

DmC: Devil May Cry takes place in one city right? Limbo City? Or am I just stupid? If Limbo City - yes, I know cities can be big - is one city of one whole world, but is controlled by demons . . . Then what about the other cities? Could we have angel controlled cities, other demon controlled cities, neutral cities?

So, sure, Limbo and the human world, for a lack of a better term, have crashed together and melded into each others arms like lovers. But does that affect the other cities in the world? And if demons are in the "real" world now because they lost a dimension - Limbo - to hide in, do angels have something like this? A dimension for them to hide in, away from their enemies or just because they want to. And what of Hell and Heaven? Are they another region of the world or do they just don't exist and humans, demons, and angels coexist together and separately?

At least in the DMC universe we knew there was a Hell, but at the same time, some demons were just running around and living with humans (and maybe angels) peacefully and not so peacefully. Yeah, plot holes in both universes.

Difference being Shin is that the original series never took any time to establish the world completely and just had you buy that this is the way the world is. DmC is just starting out and the subtle hints throughout the game really give the sense that there is more going on here than meets the eye. This is the chance to bring a story full circle unlike the unorganized canon of the previous games. Limbo City really acts like the HQ for this entire foundation because Mundus has basically set up shop there. But the little glimpses like Mundus's stats on his stocks around the office to other things really give the idea that the demons have a grip over the entire world.

Yeah, DMC was like, "Here ya go, demons and stuff." But it still left you wondering because of those plot holes.

DmC has it set that because we don't know the whole story, we are going to wonder what the hell is going on. Also, isn't Mundus one of the demon kings (don't remember what they're really called)? I don't really think that the others would just let one of them control a world rich in resources like that. Hey, who knows, it could be possible that Mundus controls everything and "shares" with the other kings or the other kings are just wimps or don't find anything beneficial from controlling humans and fighting against Mundus and each other. And maybe there could be a "benevolent" king.

Angels not controlling or doing anything to help or influence humans is pathetic in my opinion. Unless they're peacekeepers or whatever. But if they're an active force then what the hell are they doing? Playing it like the Cold War or something and staying incognito? Or they're just snooty jackasses who think they're above humans and demons and see no potential threat from them. That'll be an eye ripper when they're ravaged and rendered helpless.

If anything, like how I believe, angels and demons are just the same thing, minus the differences in abilities, appearance, and motives. They're just superhuman beings separated in appearance, abilities, and motives. Like the X-Men and Brotherhood of Mutants. Or the Justice League and Injustice League (or whatever they're called nowadays). Or Athenians and Spartans (strange analogy, but sort of fits their personalities, tactics, etc.).

I don't think plot hole is the right term to use here. Like I said there is still more to this story than what's presented so we can't chalk this up as a plot hole where in reality it could be purposely left out for potential sequels. I prefer stories that do stuff like this because I don't like it when stories come right out of the gate explaining everything not giving the audience enough credit to figure out stuff for themselves. Why waste time breaking down every little detail out the gate? The element of mystery adds fun to the speculation. Plus, I would rather spend more time hacking up demons than listening to a long monologue explaining every little thing. Plus when you think about it, the story revolves around Dante and the only one that who knows the full truth are people like Mundus and possibly Phineas because they were there. I'm pretty sure the threat of the present was more important than details of the past so you can't say this is some kind of weakness where in reality it gives it more substance. Would knowing every little detail of what happen in the past really matter to getting rid of Mundus as quickly as possible? Mundus's first priority was killing Dante and he wasn't going to pause for a little story time. Neither was Dante.
