Devil May Cry is my favorite Resident Evil 4

[@agamaz5650]

ahaha nice

[@StrawHatTony420]

I think you mean the FIRST resident evil.. re4 was an over-the-shoulder third person shooter. The original resident evils are the one's with those weird, retro camera angles

[@ihaveaplan.ijustneedmoney.9777]

@@StrawHatTony420 the idea of DMC was born from RE4. That's why DMC1 Dante resembles RE4 Leon, and both games take place in an island with gothic architecture.

[@spice1387]

Yes

[@janemaria8912]

@@StrawHatTony420 dmc used to be re4 but strayed to far from the source and became its own game

for those who havent played DMC1, this run makes the game look like a joke, its actually pretty hard

If Dante used a crowbar, the game could be called Devil May Pry.

It would've been called Devil May Life (Devil May Cry meets Half-Life).

Not even three minutes deep in the run and "That hasn't happened before". The meme is real, y'all.

GDQ special.

Crowd was great

[@ScabbyCrab]

I can't believe how sick this game looks for 2001!

[@StrawHatTony420]

Games used to be ahead of their times, instead of behind.

[@ShawnStovall]

I thought my computer crashed when the glitch happened at the beginning of the run. lol

[@ismaelgarcia3256]

Same here

[@eeJOKERee]

got baited too lol

[@XereX-Official]

exactly!! my heart stopped beating for a little bit!!

[@finnaboing]

if dante made a dessert it’d be called a “devil make pie”

[@finnaboing]

if dante worked at a laundromat, it’d be called “devil may dry”

[@rhen4short]

I love how the crowd screams with every Stinger that Dante does.

[@OneTrueBelmont]

Is Maxylobes wearing a Dante jacket? Nice!

[@Neurodivergent-j1f]

If Dante learned from Yoda, he’d hear: “Do or do not. There is no Devil May Try.”

[@Ekid]

I legit had no clue you didn't have to fight griffon in the courtyard lmao

[@motivatedposter3980]

If Dante was the more inquisitive type this game would be "devil asks why".

If Dante was looking for someone and became a detective then Devil May Spy

Same here lol have all 3 soundtrack saved to my Spotify and listen to them any time I'm playing a fighting/hack and slash game lmao

[@sharpester7277]

The first Devil May Cry Games voice acting may be Dull but the soundtrack is Awesome and the gameplay is Stylish.

[@xenowarrior282]

Story is alright, the art is good, gameplay is dated, and the soundtrack is pretty good

[@amarson2322]

dmc 1 is the best dmc to date, the atmosphere... they need to bring it back. Really dissapointed that other dmc’s are not well designed+atmosphere :/

[@dc7981]

@@amarson2322 Because DMC1 was gonna be a resi game. Plus it's a kamiya game too, DMC3 was basically a reboot that changed the series forever and focused solely on making the combat good. I wish kamiya made another game in this style

If Dante had to work at McDonald's, it would be "Devil May Fry"

the legendary cutscene makes me cry everytime

[@Axelman1234]

If you don't cry at that legendary cutscene, you feel nothing.

[@sirtacovi3262]

I played through this game blind about two days ago and when I reached the "legendary cutscene" I couldn't help but have the same reaction: "This is DEFINITELY a meme. There is no way this is not a meme. Also this is really sad????"

There's a DMC3 runner on the couch? Hopefully that means that wonderful game will eventually get its due at these events.

[@chaddoesthings6298]

your wish was granted

[@redshackles8892]

If Dante was a Lawyer, should the game be named "Devil May Lie"?. Now, out of jokes, that was some great run! Shoutouts to the best scene in the DMC franchise.

Fantastic game, Extraordinary atmosphere!

Even if DMC1 isn’t quite for me (I liked DMC3 and onward more), this run is still pretty cool to watch! Seeing someone blaze past sections I struggled with is pretty satisfying, too.

[@arthursnyder6935]

The s rank requirement for mission 22 (where you must fight Mundus) is adjusted for Dante Must Die mode due to the volcano part of his boss fight

I'm trying to platinum this game on PS4 and hopefully some of these strats help me out majorly

[@Takitibi]

This is a normal difficulty run, not DMD. DMD is alot different. DMD is not too hard, but you need to know some stuff in the game.

[@death_sh3ll]

never realized helm breaker makes so much damage

[@stupid2144]

I didn't know you could skip griffins first encounter

[@deadpoolchannel3353]

is that waifu sitting behind you who has done dmc 3 speedrun maybe he had done othef speedruns but i saw his dmc3 one

given its graphics it sure loads fast.

3:55 Wtf?!?!?!?!? Took me by surprise!

[@bittertree8936]

wow no applause at that irift platform shortcut :ooo ?!

[@theschmorgishboard]

So does Phantom take extra damage in his back?

[@Maxylobes]

THQ Russia When his tail emerges from his back, his weak spot is open. I dealt that amount of damage by doing a double jump off of his back, and then helm breaker (jump slash). Also works with Air Hike, just as long as it’s a double jump.

[@DiranJiru]

Watching him play this while got my booty kicked throughout it makes me feel like a newbie.

[@yowireafk1317]

Jackpot

[@LordZanas]

I must have missed something. Why is Helm Breaker doing so much damage?

[@Maxylobes]

Lord Zanas Helm Breaker does more damage off of a double jump.

[@8666]

the MI6 called and wanted to talk to dante. told him the devil may spy but he was sick of the puns and hung up

[@ihaveaplan.ijustneedmoney.9777]

The sequel to this game is Devil May Zwei

[@JakeHennett]

@17:25 You can skip that Griffon fight?

[@darrennew8211]

And if he did the whole run using only the crowbar, it would be Devil May Pry.

[@Neogears1312]

i'm surprised they didnt use a lot of tricks. you can jump on the bridge when you get struck by lightning and its faster than if you're on the ground.

[@Maxylobes]

I'm well aware of that. I actually pressed the jump button a couple of frames too late. Pretty minor. What other tricks are you talking about? I used just about every trick there is in the current Any% Normal route.

[@ArcRay20]

what even caused that "almost crash" near the beginning? i didnt know this game had any instability. edit: oh its on PC, that would explain it.

[@Maxylobes]

Arc Ray PC Version is actually really solid. It was the PC itself. Same thing happened in the Titanfall 2 run.

[@srcocomad]

Friendly reminder that Sparda fucking WOKE UP TO JUSTICE

[@CaaaCaaam]

If this game was about a demon who cried it would be called Devil May Cry... oh wait

[@BMANTIS1]

Does holy water do the same damage on dante must die mode?

[@OtakuManiacX]

*vote* DMC for best Resident Evil 4!!!

[@rhen4short]

25:24 Try spinning, that's a good trick!

[@MrPerritoman]

Is this HD collection? I have a problem with the cutscenes in this game. Is the port that bad? I mean, I perfectly run DMC5 but I got laggy cutscenes in DMC1

[@DarkWingSpartan]

If you're talking about the PC port, it has a few weird issues, but they can be fixed. Just make sure the game is actually using your graphics card and not integrated graphics (it defaults to the latter on a lot of computers).

[@NormalLee67]

Yeah HD collection can get audio desync in cutscenes, it is fixable though. Suggest googling troubleshooting solutions if you're still having the issue because what fixes it isn't always the same for everyone.
