What bosses should return.

[SpawnShooter]

To start something fresh, if this isn't the same story what bosses would you like to see make an appearance?

Maybe Berial would be cool, we were told he conquered the Fire Hell, maybe it can delve into that a bit more, alternatively Phantom had a awesome presence so it would be nice to see him updated if done well, maybe in a 3 encounter thing again.

 

[The crazy demon]

Considering for the designs of the enemy, white structure with a little appearence of a blob here and there, it would be nice to see Argosax or Mundus.

since this is his origin story, im thinking the bosses of 3 from cerberus to doppelganger.

 

[DreadnoughtDT]

Nightmare needs to come back. He'd fit right in, being techno-organic and whatnot.

Maybe a re-imagining of Arkham, he might control an organization trying to obtain demon powers or something, I felt they should of done a bit more with him in 3 because as a result he is so un-memorable and bland it's silly, and if they do, I hope when you fight him he's not just a blob anymore, maybe a 1 v 1 against Spardas image, like fighting Nelo Angelo or Credo.

 

[Vergil'sBitch]

Well, if Dante is going to be restrainted in some sort of institution (going by the 1st trailer), then maybe the return of Arkham as Head of the institution. (A diabloical scheme to get the power of Sparda by locking up the sons and torturing them.... mwhahahahahaha... *cough*)

 

[SpawnShooter]

^Maybe it's called Arkhams Asylum!

Bhwahaha, we have P.O.T.M!!

 

[Vergil'sBitch]

^Funnily enough, that did cross my mind

Maybe not an organization because they might be too unruly to control and he might prefer having two or 3 operatives that he picked and trained under his command. The thing that set Arkham apart from other villian's of the series that he was a trickster who did everything on his own pulling everyone strings by himself. When you consider wwhat he had to and what he was trying to pull off, its pretty daunting. plus, Arkham is trying to recreate sparda's path within him so having a couple of disciples seems right.

Nevan would be cool...lol I'm just kidding.
Gigapede lol.
Some bosses from DMC2 really should return in DMC because they surely have potential (lol that living chopter and tank) and this new atmosphere fits them quite well.
Some DMC1 bosses too, but other games I think not.
DMC3 bosses too realistic and organic and for DMC4 same thing.

 

[V's patron]

I dont mind the organic because it plays off well with inorganic and i dont want every demon to look like the marrionette mechanical mannequin things.
A little diversity goes a long way.

 

[Subject 64432B]

I wouldn't like to see Berial or Cerberus joining forces with marrionette mechanical.... things.
That would be ridiculous.
But that's just our differ in opinions.....

 

[V's patron]

Not joining forces but existing in the same world.
The organic demons could be regular demons while the mechanical marionettes could be human made demons or something.

 

[Subject 64432B]

We saw human made demons in DMC4, they looked nothing like these.
It's cool, I appreciate your opinion but regular demons just don't fit in for me sorry.

but those were demons made by an isolated group that avoided modern weapons and military equipment. so the fact that agnus based demons on armor and midevil weapons doesn't say anything about what other people would do. a person or group used to hi-tech things might make demons with a mechanical appearence.

on topic: Nightmare would fit the style of demon that has been shown and DMC3 bosses would fit the origin story thing. Vergil as a boss is very likely to happen.

I don't know but I think that these demons from the new trailer could be just a product of Dante's imagination and are related somehow to that psyhic evaluation treatment they are exposing him to.

Even though I do enjoy the cutscenes and I am sure that DMC has an excellent story etc, I am more of a gameplay kind of guy.

From DMC4 in terms of gameplay and mechanics I would say the best designed boss would have been sanctus or dagon. Not because of difficulty, but because being better at the game rewarded you more.

Credo was retardedly easy, you could do anything and easily beat him, dante was a retarded fight I only managed to beat him like 3 days ago with no damage, I think that even though he's cool, the fight was nearly impossible to do in any real stylish skillful manner. Killing the swords on agnus was too easy an exploit, and just an all round really easy boss fight. Bael you can kill in about 40s without even spamming a move. Agnus on mission 6 was boring and annoying.

Of course I still dislike a few things about the other bosses, dagon seems to becomed weakened almost randomly, and if he does the move where he spits out ice (but the completely instant one that he does immediately after you hit him) it's almost unavoidable unless you have DT with nero. Sanctus sometimes hits me cos as he CONSTANTLY FLIES AWAY the camera angle changes suddenly and i run into one of his little orbiting shield ball things.

In terms of what I found coolest, bael was really cool, and if for some reason the saviour got resurrected that would be sweet (if they upped the speed and power of it maybe).

Hey they always caused just animate a sparda statue because im sure there is tons of sparda statues around the world.

Or have you fight a vision/apparition of Sparda. I've always wanted to do a 1 on 1 with him, Arkham turning into that blob form severely disappointed me.

Darkslayer13 already said my counter argument.

Too combine his and your ideas, it could be that nightmare has come and infected dante, causing him various illusions based on past events because he sustains himself by absorbing dante's emotions/life force in a way similar to a parasite.
