No, of course not. If you want to play DmC, you can do that. I'm saying DMC and DmC do not have to be mutually exclusive. If you want a DmC series, that's fine with me. Don't want to play DMC5, then don't.
Glad that's solved.
And you're saying new Dante is exactly like DMC1 Dante? Please. You can have DmC Dante, as again, I never said ''you can only have DMC5 and no DmC2''. I will say, though, that DmC should never have existed in the first place. If DMC had continued, you wouldn't be so angry at the fans of DMC. And I and other people wouldn't be ****ed off at the series being rebooted. There would be no problem.
I probably wouldn't have if DMC4 didn't have such bad results in how it was made, rushed, and presented. If DMC4 was better at being a DMC game then yeah, I'd be fine with DMC5 and I would've been angry with the reboot right now. Come to think of it; if DMC4 was good, then the reboot wouldn't be here.
That's your opinion, not a fact. Don't give me the same **** as repeated over and over again, like ''DMC has to move with the times''. Who said it doesn't? And who are you to decide what ''the times'' are? Who are you to decide what's in vogue and what's not? Let the developer create games they want to create. Don't force them to comply with 'modern fashion'. Have you ever heard of Raphael Saadiq? He writes classic R&B music, and I and many people happen to prefer that over 'Snoop Lion (Snoop Dogg)', Usher and so on. He's been doing well since the late 1980s, so don't pretend people have to keep up with the 'modern standard'. There's nothing outdated about DMC, anyway. Or is this about DMC's anime style again? I hope you understand that what you like isn't the same as what the rest of the world likes.
Well the **** I'm repeating is the same **** that DMC3 had to do and DmC just does it to another level. DMC3 had to go with modern times and couldn't keep up with the gothic castles anymore (which I think is dumb because castles are always good) and Dante's style had to change from the suwave trench coat, to a J-rock styl trench coat. But yeah, it maybe what I like, but that doesn't mean I'm the only one. Also if you say "let the developers create what they want to" then why are you mad with DmC when developers were "creating what they wanted to"?
Of course they know that. But what makes today different from, say, 2008? There have always been games that had a better story than the DMC series. Just look at Metal Gear Solid 2, 3, and 4 and there you have it. Capcom didn't appear to care. Nor should they. If anything, games have gotten more focused on gameplay and less on cohesive and deep storytelling (Halo 4, CoD). It's not like the first Assassin's Creed was some sort of masterpiece either.
Asassin's Creed has a lot going for itself in terms of story. Its just hard to follow sometimes and pay attention to details without feeling like your reading a History textbook. But in terms of a story, AC has DMC pretty much beat.
The problem many people seem to have with DMC is that it allows for some parts of the story to remain a mystery, whereas most games nowadays chew out everything for you. I personally like that mystery, if done right. I have no problem with anime style games.
Nither do I, but only if those anime games are actually done right and are natural. case in point; No More Heroes. It did a great job in having that anime feel to it and had an interesting set of characters and situations come up. And it was funny unlike DMC4 is when they try to be funny. I have no problem with mystery, but DMC lacks the actual skill to have them, what with Nero's origin being explained in an art book instead of an actual game.
I don't know why you think that. DMC4 had pretty much the same gameplay as DMC3, only with the ability to switch between styles and weapons on the fly. It did very well, commercially, and I thought it was a very nice game. There have been many games that didn't revolutionize anything. Rather, they improved upon original concepts. Even games like Wing Commander. Those games still did very well.
But that's the thing. Maybe it's just me, but I've been playing DMC3 non stop and after a year of doing so, I got bored with its gameplay. That's obviously just me though, but my point is I just don't want to see the same old same old for a DMC5. Something different would be nice. One of the reasons I took a shine to DmC. It was different and had different feels to its gameplay which I liked. Though not perfect, felt nice.
Alright, that's your opinion. But I think you're going to have a hard time accepting many games, as a lot of games' sequels/prequels whatever, have similar gameplay. I could say Assassin's Creed would be pretty much lost on you, since the gameplay appears to be roughly the same each time.
Nope. Not true. AC1 is very different then AC2. And AC3 is even more different from the others with its gameplay and transversing. AC4 will most likely have something familiar to AC3 but hopefully will keep something from AC2.
You mean a pea shooter. I'll admit that Nero was supposed to be very similar to Dante, while being a new protagonist, so that people unfamiliar with DMC had something fresh to start with. Someone without a pre-established background story.
But that story wasn't properly explained and Nero was just a random person who came from know where as far as some people were concerned.
*nothing more than/nothing but
So sorry for my skills. I'm getting lessons for Christmas.^_^
You could argue that it wouldn't be DMC anymore if the gameplay kept changing. If we eventually got to drive a spaceship instead of controlling Dante, I definitely wouldn't call that Devil May Cry.
That's irrelevant as playing as a spaceship and playing as a character aren't the same thing.
What if there's nothing to expand to in terms of gameplay? Abandon the series? That sounds a bit unnecessary.
Then either end it, try to squeeze onne last game out (DMC4) or reboot it.
He can only do a three hit swing? That's news to me. I think you might be playing the game wrong, or not very well. Trolol.
The same old three hit slashes he does, the same old over head swing, same old high time, same old aerial rave. I just wanted different animations for that since I'm a bit of a sword style nip nicker.
Yeah, I agree. I'd say let them end the series if they're sick of it. Or let Ninja Theory take over and give DmC a different name.
"Devil's Never Cry"?
Heck yeah.
Cause Lord knows we've seen Capcom at its worst.
I wouldn't say DmC's gameplay is that different from DMC4's (it's mostly DMC4 Dante and Nero combined) but the rest I can agree with. Nobody said you couldn't have DmC2. Get it, play it, love it.
