That after 11 years and 2 games , I still can't warm to Nero as a character and I dunno why
He is still a bit whiny in v though so that might be it

Started watching Hellboy on Netflix.
The actor who played young professor Bruttenholm did a pretty good job.

He's a serviceable lead but not an exceptional one.

Only on Mission 4 right now but do you know what I like the most? The customize screen and main menu screens. I can sit in those screens for hours and just watch the characters move and make comments. It's strangely relaxing.
I betcha - you were checkin' Nico out, eh....? Eh...? *eyebrow with naughty look*
The amount of people faving and following my old DMC fanfics lately is embarrassing. Especially that one. :blush:

Yes, yes I am. But in my defense the game puts Nico in positions (and zooms in on said positions) that beg me to look.

At work loads of work to do but mainly thinking that I cant wait until I can fit in some gaming tomorrow.
Seem to spend most of my time in between when I can actually play researching, reading guides or watching YouTube videos on certain games these days.

So I'm playing DMC5 and the game switches me over to V. My first impressions went as followed:
"Wait... Is his shadow kitty the same Shadow from DMC1? So does that mean his bird is-" (Reads name of the bird) that is mother flippin' Griffin!" :jawdrop:
(Uses Nightmare for the first time)
"OmG it's... Not the giant gun from DMC1. Ah not a big deal... Wait am I controlling a giant monster?" (Cues the music of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers summoning their DinoZords) "We need Nightmare Power NOW!" (Nightmare crashes onto the scene)
Yum, just yum. :inlove:

Only devil may cry 5 could make me close down work for a week lol
Sickness , the plague , hurricanes can't get me to take time off, but DMC is special

I'm thinking how I really want to write a Devil May Cry 4 / Warhammer 40 000 crossover, but will likely never get around to writing it. Nero as a member of Inquisition, Dante a freelance demon hunter...
I have a bit of a soft spot for him though; probably because DMC4 is the game that got me into franchise.
I can respect that , I like his design and moveset etc , it's his personality and immature whining that get on my nerves
His va does a great job , but his delivery of the whiny dialogue just makes me cringe about Nero as a character

True enough, but wasn't he supposed to be cca 16 years old in DMC4? Though from what I have seen it doesn't seem he changed that much going to 5, which is a problem.
Yeah. I never had a problem with it in DMC4, because in that game - as I said, he is young, and neck-deep in s***, and the entire framework that had been giving him stability had just been shattered. In those circumstances, having him be composed would actually be immersion-breaking to me, so I never had problem with any of his apparent temper-tantrums, breakdowns etc., and never could really understand or agree with people who complained that he was whiny or immature. But by the time of DMC5, he had (presumably) had somewhat-stable life, relationship with Kyrie, and a job he apparently enjoys. He should have been far more mature and emotionally stable in DMC5, so giving him the exact same characterization as he had in DMC4 is illogical.
@Picard - Seems like Capcom has more of a problem with character development than they do with anything else. It’s a shame really.
I’m also thinking “How many of us cried like a middle-aged woman who just had her husband leave her and is being comforted by a huge tub of ice-cream and her friend whose life is equally as depressing as hers” when they got DMC 5?

@LordOfDarkness Tbf, I've been crying like that nonstop while playing, too, so...
