You play DMC for gameplay and that's what makes you a fan.
So you were never a fan of the character of Dante.
So, what you're saying is, you are mad at everyone who dislikes Dante publicly? That must suck for you.
I haven't asked you to choose between NeoDante and Original Dante because they are two different character. But what i don't get is why it's right to bash Dante just because your not a fan of him.
Because some people critizise what they don't like. Dante's character is lot of wasted potential and people tend to react in a negative fashion, when you make them pay money for a game, that is shortened by a quarter, because you are forced to skip the ridiculous cutscenes.
I am not saying that you said this but:
1) someone said because Dante cried for Vergil he's a brat.
How is "Nu-uh, I'm not crying, it's the rain, silly you *sniff*" not bratty?
2) someone said that he looks like a drag queen
That was my opinion. How is this bothering you so much...?
3) someone said he's a drama queen.
That must have stung.
I like all Dantes because despite DMC 2, 3 and 4 Dante's aren't exact copies of DMC 1 Dante - they preserve certain aspects of him.
Red coat, white hair, guns. That's about it. Except for DMC3&4, where you basically played the same Dante for two games.
The thing is those of you who aren't a fan of the character Dante, but are fan of gameplay of DMC , like NT's version of Dante, and go on bashing DMC Dante even though they are two different characters.
Ok, why does this even concern you? Why is no one entitled to their opinion?
If you like Ninja theory's version of Dante - fine by me. I don't give a dam.
Thank god, finally we get absolution for our sins. Seriously, why do you think we need your permission to like or dislike anything?
But don't go around insulting Dante when he is not the same character, and your not a fan.
Don't tell us what to do. No one is stopping you from hating on new Dante, yet you are being a little sensitive the second someone says "Dante is a faget, lolz".
There is difference between hating a character and not being a fan of it. Learn the difference.
That's the least clever/necessary sentence in this whole thread.
If I don't like a character, I reserve the right to make my opinion clear. For that matter: I think old Dante was one of the most horribly written characters ever. Even the goddamn Rayman had a nicer plot-curve than the garbage Capcom fed us in the last years.
