Vergil's pathetic-ness. His own agenda now is so utterly stupid and embarrassing. He only wants to fight Dante because he believes Dante is stronger then him. While i did prefer his DLC to the main game, his reasoning in the end to go after Dante was so childish and idiotic.
I take issue with this because it's sort of utterly wrong. Vergil's agenda had next to nothing to do with Dante beating him. He ends up fighting Dante in DmC because of their wholly differing views, and in
Vergil's Downfall he's cutting all emotional ties so that petty things like love and emotions don't get in the way of his goal, which requires gaining power.
At no point is it really about him needing to overcome Dante because he beat him previously, or because he's stronger than Vergil. All Dante's victory over Vergil did was show Vergil that he needed more power and less friends if he was going to achieve his goal of taking his "rightful" place ruling over humans.
It feels odd to tell people they're wrong about something they feel, but...this is all based on incorrect facts it seems :/
Also, a QTE is a QTE, there's nothing else like it, because it's pretty cut and dry - all control is taken away from the player in order for them to continue the game using one well-timed button press (or jam). The gimmick in Vergil's fight isn't all that different from gimmicks seen all throughout the rest of DMC, but suffers only from some slightly bad conveyance - the only hint you get that you're going to need to kill him while DT'd is the fact that his Doppelganger bleeds Purple Orbs. The funny thing is, you talk about how that gimmick completely takes away any options for you as the player, when it really doesn't. You DT, and then you can do whatever moves you want - you aren't restricted at all other than needing to end the fight while in DT; just like needing Doppelganger to be in a spotlight, or Nevan's cloak to be down, Cerberus' ice armor to be gone. They're just simple, gimmicky restrictions put on the fights to make them slightly less "just hit this guy till he dies."
The 3 years of insults from Tameem to the moment it was released.
So tired of hearing this bullsh!t with no legitimate facts to back it up.
I'd also say that while you have the right to post where ever you want, that doesn't exclude you from getting flack, especially when you can't say anything
constructive to the actual discussion. You're really no different than MrRandomLulz and his stupid sh!t.
Well, till Dante gets Kat they shoot in f**in nowhere. So whom they were aiming? They are SWAT btw, they should kill Kat with 1 shot (she was not too far away from them) and then try to kill D&V. But it's impossible for them because of D&V regenaration. So here is one more question...why Mundus entrusted them exchange? They didn't protect Lilith, they didn't kill Kat and they can't do at least anything to Nephilims.
And then goes unexplained time slowing.
Yeah this scene is definitely worst.
You're still ignoring the whole point of not bothering with something that isn't a threat. Them not being able to hit Dante and Vergil (and Kat) is explained away by the sad magic of plot armor that
everything is guilty of, unless it's a maiming shot or the character has some other way of surviving the blow. The fact remains though, that they were still shooting at the two people with guns that were shooting at them, which is one of the most logical and procedural things to do - take out the threat before wasting resources on something incidental.
They didn't really even get a chance to protect Lilith, no one was expecting the captor hoping to make a trade to
kill their own leverage.
Also remember that they had no idea Vergil was a Nephilim, so by all accounts they were under the impression that at least one of them could be killed
Again, I'm not giving it a free pass, but we gotta remember that these guys were following a simple combat rule. Just because we would have done something differently doesn't make our idea somehow better :x
And I'd be happy with someone doing the same for me. There's been a few times when I've been disgruntled about something that's based solely on an incorrect/incomplete view or something. Knowing more of the "why" helps me understand it better, and possibly not be irate about it. Case in point: the Trade was full of some pretty heavy plot armor, and I've grown tired of it. However, because I know how most trained combatants handle firefights, I did not for a moment question why they didn't just blow Kat away when everything went sour.
