Gameplay:

- Ability to play as Dante on all missions
- Unique and experimental weapons (Imagine a skateboard weapon lol)
- Return of free ride, wild stop, wall running
- Online Multiplayer for all missions and bloody palace after the main campaign is completed (I'm still ****ed off we didn't get true co-op in DMC5)
- Void mode but with more background options like in fighting game training modes with ability to fight bosses
- Make it hard to stay in the air. I really don't like how easy it is to stay in the air in DMC5. I think simplifying jump cancel was a bad idea, hitbox for it looks like DmC now.
- Make characters like Nero DLC. I'd personally like a Dante only game.
- Give Dante more styles like in DMC3, create new ones. We could have eight styles if it were made so that we have to double tap a d-pad button like in DMC4 for darkslayer
- Inverse rainstorm, and a rainstorm air stinger would be really cool, moves like that could be awesome to use

Story:

- I'd like to find out more about the relationship between Vergil & the woman he had a child with. Hopefully it was true love, not Vergil sleeping around. Many people may disagree, but I'd love a prequel to DMC3 where Dante is new to being a mercenary, how he got ebony and ivory, finding out vergil is alive, Vergil's love interest (well, I hope it was love and not just Vergil sleeping around), Tony Redgrave saga, how Dante dealt with the loss of his family. I wouldn't mind a Sparda prequel either. I don't play DMC for the story but I'd find these themes interesting. I don't want to play as an elderly Dante. Games based on the manga would be great too, DMC2 had some cool mangas.

Graphics And Artstyle:
Graphics are WAY MORE IMPORTANT than people think. I absolutely cannot stand how UGLY DMC5's levels are, and how odd some of the characters look. I loved the more anime mixed with some realism art-style of DMC4 and imagine if DMC5 had looked like this instead:

I love diverse, colourful environments. Many argue the series has had this problem before DMC5, but I'd disagree, I found all previous settings interesting, even DMC3. I don't know how, but they managed to make a grey tower very interesting to go through. However, I still believe DMC4 and DmC did it best.

what would be the other 4 styles?

I'm hoping Nero's mom is alive but not a good person. She doesn't need to be a villian but having her be a saint wouldn't be interesting. Having her be an uneasy ally to Nero in a future game would be great.

I'm always fond of more exploration into his Tony Redgrave days. It's a shame DMC has done very little with it so far.

@ef9dante_oSsshea
the circle button would be you summoning a pair of wolves while square and triangle would be your other moves/weapons.

Quicksilver, Doppelganger, Dual wielding style (Imagine having Rebellion in one hand and another weapon in the other hand) , and Kickboxing (or similar martial art) style similar to the moveset you get in DMC1/3 when you use round trip, or like in DMC2 as Trish when you place Sparda on the ground and get a hand to hand combat moveset.

To be honest, the whole Nero being the son of Vergil thing that Itsuno did was a terrible out of character idea. In my opinion, it would have been much better if maybe Vergil was trying to clone himself so he could have an army of clones, but every single cloning attempt failed.. at least that was what Vergil thought, but we find out Nero was the only successful attempt. it seems far more logical for that to be the case. However, he as a mother, and so I hope his mother is a good person who has a good explanation as to why she put Nero in an orphanage.

I disagree as I don't think I know vergil well enough to say that it's out of character.

Capcom's inability to explore Vergil well doesn't help. The actual prequel to 3 was a manga that's fine but forgettable.

I don't mind another origin for Nero as I found him uninspired as a character. There were better concepts and they chose the worst one.

I don't think Vergil is smart enough to clone himself but that's where Nero's mother could come in...;)

DMC has a case of the week premise common in TV shows like Supernatural. It is perfect for crossover games.

So a crossover with Ninja Gaiden, Bayonetta, Darksiders or Darkstalkers would be cool.

same with Resident Evil, Viewtiful Joe, Okami and God hand.

A 5th level for all of dante's styles, with new or longer attacks so it is changed up from 3, 4 and 5
 
Custom character creation

Re: Nero's Mom - Capcom doesn't care (and I don't know why anyone else doesn't think the same thing). It was just an NPC model with a cloth over her head. If they actually gave a damn about it, they would've made a bit more of an effort. They had enough time to think about it. Capcom just needed a quick shoe-in. The same goes with that stupid add on to the shoulders of Vergil's coat.

New protagonist are so rarely well done these days that I am far too afraid they'll mess it up. At best we'd get a character like Leon Kennedy (who is already pretty much Dante) , at worst we get a mouthy obese woman that has short dyed hair and makes reboot Dante look like a wholesome individual.

Custom character creation would be cool, DmC had something kind of like that for weapons where you could change the look of weapons. Hopefully Capcom don't use it as an excuse to have overpriced micro-transactions.

Nero's origins were so poorly done I am surprised Itsuno was not laughed out of the room, but I suppose people just trusted he could do no wrong due to the success of Devil May Cry 3. The idea of Vergil having a son is nonsensical to me. Nero being Dante's son would have made more sense.

@Vergil's Waifu
it's a hope I have because it's the only thing interesting about Nero left to explore.

@XELNAGATYLER
I'll take the risk as a future with only Nero as the playable protagonist is unappealing to me.

my dream pick would be a group like Penny Blood's cast of characters.



Matthew Farrell- a 29 year old Irish American private detective with the supernatural ability of Fusion. He inherited the ability to fuse with demons from his father and doesn't like it. A veteran of WW1 and works for the FBI on supernatural matters. He gets tasked with investigating an asylum at the beginning of the story.

outside of Fusion, he uses a mix of martial arts and a shotgun in battle.


Emilia Dawson- A 25 year old member of the UK secret service. She went missing after the UK ambassador to Japan was murdered.

She is also a cyborg which is what her playstyle is built around.



Suseri Otsuki- a teenage priestess that works for Kamizumi, the Japanese empire's monster extermination force.

uses magic mirrors in combat.


Vito Andolini- a 39 con artist with a dark past. Used to be a former member of the Hellounders and is on the run from them.

uses illusions in combat and can copy opponents moves.



Goliath- a robot created by Victor Frankenstein. He is over 100 years old but spent most of it enslaved by various forces, leaving him with a fear of trusting others.

his weapon is described as " round things".


Candy Nation- a private school student with an interest in suffrage rights.

Uses a hammer in fights.


Luca- a young man held captive in a castle because of his supernatural abilities. he could create shockwaves and transform into a wolf.



Roxanne- a jazz singer that is half human half vampire.

the cast of "Penny Blood"

I'd like a new character who's got vibes of Giorno Giovanna & Broly. Someone who'd be a partner/rival alongside Nero.

Plus Nero could use his own personal Devil Arm: A talking weapon since Agni & Rudra. But one who'll Nero respects and will have someone to talk to on the battlefield/hunt.

I can think of Nero's mother being Vergil's partner and traveled with him for some time before DMC3 if you want a believable relationship. So that would mean she wasn't living in Fortuna in first place, and this needs a reason why Vergil "dumped" her at Fortuna... Mmmm this is too much work nah Capcom would never

Before 5 released I theorised that the reason Vergil wanted power so much is because he couldn't defend his wife, he gave Nero the devil bringer arm and that Nero's DMC4 DT was Vergil's ghost somehow protecting Nero. I know it sounds cheesy, but cmon man, I was 14 at the time :P
 
I thought about having styles being a play style like 3 than a modifier like in 4.

I had a character that uses a spear and shield as well as a wolf summon. So that would be two styles-Centurion and Tamer.

Dante still could use all 4 styles on the fly but the new characters can't. It's a subtle character detail-Dante is Jack of all trades but a master of none. The new leads aren't gonna be as good so they compensate in others.

I'm more into RPGs so it was inspired by playing FF7R and GoW.
