DmC: Devil May Cry had good ideas and I do think the gameplay is overall solid and at least better mechanically than DMC1 and DMC2. But it feels like they were making this reboot for all the wrong reasons, being that instead of trying to inject new life into a stale series, this instead feels like a desperate attempt to “Westernize” the series in order to give it more mass appeal due to its declining sales. Which of course blew up in their face, since it alienated their core fanbase, AKA a large chunk of the peeps who’d buy this game in the first place. And so despite tease of a sequel with the Vergil’s Awakening DLC, a follow-up to Donte’s game never came. And instead we eventually got DMC5, which entirely acts like the reboot never existed and is almost like an apology for it. So as much as a misguided dumpster fire as this game might’ve been, at the very least it didn’t lead to the series crashing and burning. Which unfortunately happens to too many franchises nowadays (re: any of Konami’s franchises.)

DMC 5 didnt apologize for DmC, it embrace it, because staff like it. There is a lot of takes in DMC 5 taken directly from DmC, specially Virgil moveset. And as said, DmC tries to be its own take at DMC with western ideas, which fits namco msrketing strategies,so i think that it has potential but has to refine more its ideas and separates itself more from the main line, so its has their own line.

@@ericquiabazza2608 I don't know who the first person that claimed that DMC4 Vergil got most of his moveset from DmC is, but it's both wrong and annoying. DMC4 Vergil got a grand total of 3 moves from DmC Vergil. That's right, 3. Everything else is either from DMC1, DMC3 or original (and of course, all this applies to DMC5 Vergil too since he's almost the same as DMC4 Vergil). So while DMC5 does take some very few inspirations from DmC (announcer, the void etc.) Vergil isn't, and has never been, one of them.

Personally, I find DMC2's Edgy Dante to be okay in theory The problem with DMC2 was that Dante didn't have anything interesting to bounce off of - unlike in DMCs 1 and 3-5 where the bosses (and Nero) all contrast or play off of his cockiness, DMC2 just doesn't have any good characters to interact with him - all the bosses are bland, Lucia is just...there...the best moment in the entire game is easily Argo going over-the-top "I was going to be a king!" where Dante just shoots him all "yeah? Here's your crown" Besides, this unintentionally sets a character arc with the other games - where Dante starts off a happy jackass, gets a bit somber after maybe losing Vergil, then depressed after more definitely losing Vergil, before cheering up once he has Nero and then gets all anxious when Vergil comes back DmC Donte on the other hand just has a terrible flavor of cockiness to him - he sounds more like a school bully trying to hurt people rather than have fun, on top of just reusing old swears (the infamous "f*ck you" scene comes to mind) instead of doing something creative and different (treating Cerberus like a pet dog, telling Agni and Rudra to stop talking, flirting with Nevan, getting Griffin to "flock off", complimenting Nelo Angelo on being honorable for not backstabbing him) Yeah, Donte just sounds more like a school bully who just got hurt and is trying to hurt people, and this actually makes me empathize with the bosses more than Donte Not helping is how the bosses are all either "dodge and kite until you can hit their weak spot" or copies of OG Vergil, but slower and now moans with every strike before making a rapist face at you

DMC2 Dante becomes much better if you remember he spends the whole game making important choices, like helping save the people to progress with the game, with the flip of a coin... That has two faces. Basically the whole game is him pretending he did not already plan to do it anyway while setting up a surprise running joke... That he ends up missing when people find out about.

The dmc reboot feels like the edgier version of metal gear rising mixed with dmc and if was the child of both of the games the fanbase would burn it to the ground. The donte in the reboot feels like the dmc 2 mixed with a chunk of metal gear rising with its politics and donte's personality. The reboot was fun but i missed the old dmc when it came out. The plot feels like a discounted version of mgr: revengeance.

I genuinely do believe the rumor that a lot of the changes Ninja Theory made to DmC were mandated by Capcom themselves. A lot of their games at the time were being forced through the "Western remake treatment" around this time. Another KZbinr called Matt McMuscles covered the development of some of these games, including this one, on his own channel as part of his ongoing "What Happened?" series. As for this game, I hated the character designs, character writing, and story in general, but I liked the level designs and some of the aspects of the gameplay. Overall, I did like the game, but I completely understood the hatred it got and so didn't defend it. It's the same reason why I don't really defend Saint's Row 4 unless the specific part that's being criticized is the gameplay.

The one thing I'll say in defense of DMC 2's Dante is he was griving over the lose of his brother Vergil (who we thought died in DMC 1), Trish leaving him & Lady nowhere to be seen. It was likely to much for Dante at once so he became cold & distance, but over the course of the game he did start to regain some of the old spark he had (keyword some). The problem of course is we wouldn't learn about his relationship with Vergil (he was just a boss in DMC 1) or even that Lady existed (his potential love interest) until DMC 3 so we had no context for this sudden change of attitude, which in my opinion hurts the game a lot. If the game was released after DMC3 (which would of been DMC2 & DMC2 becoming 3 instead) we'd have more understanding of why Dante is like this from the start.

Great video, loved it, I just thought I'd add onto to your brief mention of Vergil, since while the hat is most definitely...a choice, the way they went about "modernising" him is far worse. Firstly, making him the leader of an underground anonymous freedom fighter group is interesting, however we barely see him working as the leader. We see him talk big, but he barely does anything, to the point that I was surprised that Kat was the one getting kidnapped when she could teleport away...and Vergil could not. Secondly, we barely understand why he changes from "we have to save the humans from the evil Mundas" to "I want to rule over these weak humans with an iron fist". Like, he appears to be doing this due to what happened to his Mother, though that doesn't work all that well considering she was an angel and not a regular human. (seriously what purpose did the Nephilim thing serve other than showing that no one at Ninja Theory did any research) But then, right at the end, he suddenly starts acting slightly closer to how DMC3 Vergil was. Like, the fuck? And thirdly, cause I feel like this part isn't discussed as much...the bullet abortion. Right before the third act, without any proper reasoning and as the hostage exchange of Lilith for Kat is transpiring, Vergil aims at Lilith's back and shoots; blowing out her stomach and killing her demon fetus in the process. Then he shoots her in the head. This is why Mundas then goes ape shit and probably ends up killing a lot of people. Heck, he and Kat almost die trying to escape because of this reckless stunt. Pissing Mundas off literally ends up making things harder for them in the end! Soooo, yeah, Donte might be a shit attempt at rebooting a character, but Vergil just feels like both an insult to OG Vergil, a pale imitation of him, and a poorly written arsehole of a character.

The game have some good ideas like leveling up with skill points instead of red orbs, the angel weapons, the new options to play with guns and the accessibility. However, it's still rough in the edges. Also, Reboot Dante may have some good moments, but OG Dante can't be replaced by an edgy teen/young adult.

Now that we've got some time between when this game came out and today, I'll say that the game has some good points. Setpiece presentation is top notch, and the gameplay mechanics are legitimately good (to the point that Itsuno, who took up the DMC franchise as its director since DMC2, lifted some of that for DMC5's gameplay). The Director's Cut of the game also threw in a number of QoL improvements that made the game a lot more enjoyable (and the PC version afforded some very entertaining mods). But the rest of this game? Dogshit. Dated political themes, themes that were outright stolen from They Live, the edginess that made this game even more juvenile than the main series' humor, and a whole host of character and plot contrivances and "what were they thinking?!" moments brought this game low. The Vergil DLC for this game didn't help matters. Even if DmC's gameplay was more complex, it's no wonder why DMC fans flocked to Revengeance and shat on this game. And the fact that games journalists continued to defend this game with the most asinine justifications and arguments certainly didn't help its image. Not in a million years... would I regard this game in any light as positive as the rest of DMC.

the best thing by far about DmC is how much from this game made it into DMCV,the overall movement making platforming M U C H more smooth,overall animations (like simply moving and swinging blades around) also felt much more smooth making the flow of gameplay feel just right,the way effects look and are delivered mid gameplay/cutscenes with the more "realistic" style of graphics when put with everything i mentioned prior just fitted everything NICELY into a single pack its one of those rare cases where CAPCOM looked back at a old game and did what most companies and critics themseves tend to forget to do nowadays:_find in a overall BAD GAME what WORKS theres potential EVERYWHERE specially in old trash games and DmC is the perfect example of that,again,can't even IMAGINE how DMCV would have looked OR played without DmC

Fun fact: Donte looks a lot like the lead dev and fan antagonizer Tameem Antoniedes One thing that bugs me is that DmC defenders like to bring up "Capcom asked for the design" as a counterpoint, but when you look at the concept art, all the prototypes were such a diverse mix of cyberpunk and fantasy, with some that could actually fit in the "western" vision that Capcom wanted, but somehow they agreed on "dude wearing jacket" as the final design

A lot of the early concept arts involved a white haired dante with the signature red coat. from what it seems, ninja theory tried to make this dante a lot closer to the original until capcom told them to stay away from the original franchise as far as they can. even some cut dialogues from the game had the charm of the original dante to some sorts.

Idk, It did a pretty good job of taking the plots of DMC 1 through 3, and condensing it into a single story. Characters were a little bit dodgy, but the overall story holds up well enough in my opinion. It's just a grungier, dirtier take on Devil May Cry. And you can see how Hideaki Itsuno carried influences from DmC² onward into DMCV. The influences show. The style shows. I think it's a great show of how many people who play video games have Autism, that people reject DmC² so hard. The absolute rejection of change in any way, shape, or form betrays the underlying asperger syndrome of the core audience.

To put it in economic terms, it would be like if Nintendo one day just stopped their entire video game focus and went back to hanafuta cards. Everyone would hate it because it’s a betrayal of everything Nintendo has built. Not to mention that DMC squared diluted everyone down in order to rip off the ‘dystopia freedom fighters’ plot, including trashing fan favorites like Lady and Trish, and screwing over Dante and Vergil’s personalities.

Inwould say DMC has potential, as it takes a little more depth with its characters, something that 5 tries too, but most is on extra media, specially V having a manga. If DmC refines its ideas in place of just do a generic take (bosses need a little more imagination) it may become renown by its own name. Having combat being basicly the only conection to DMC original line.

I was still in high school when this game was first announced, and I vividly remember the hate people had towards it due to Dante's new appearance, the most notable complaint was his hair, which I thought was kind of childish. Bear in mind that this was before most of us found out that DmC was a reboot instead of a sequel, especially since some of the trailers online had the title of the video as "Devil May Cry 5" instead of "DmC Devil May Cry", so the I found the hate towards Dante's new appearance to be puzzling at the time. At the time when I thought this was the actual DMC5, the first trailer gave an indication that the Dante we would be playing as is not the real Dante, but an imposter, which is why he says "My name is Dante" in a voice we don't recognize as the real Dante's. Since that original trailer gave hints that "Dante" was undergoing some kind of psychological conditioning, my theory at the time was that Capcom was going for the initial concept of DMC4 where Nero was supposed to be a failed clone of Vergil rather than his biological son, but doing it for "Dante" instead, and the reason was that the demons decided to fight fire with fire and create a version of Dante that fought for them instead of against them, maybe even sending him out to kill the real Dante, and the reason he had black hair instead of white hair was because his demonic powers weren't fully grown yet but would turn white when they do as even in that first trailer you can see patches of white hair on him. I think if both Ninja Theory and Capcom ran with this concept as a spin-off storyline to the original series rather than the overall reboot we did get, it could've been both a great game and a great story, the story of a man created to be a dark replacement for a great hero. For the record, I actually like DmC for what it's worth, and it does do a few things better than the main series (Particularly the level design), but I don't blame people for hating this.

The whole DmC PR debacle was so _severely_ mishandled that I've come to develop a personal dislike for everything that company is involved with. Their reps at the time (Tameem Antoniades in particular) were such unbelievable pricks, they directly damaged their own reputation. Which is to say nothing about how painfully unlikeable and bland the game itself turned out to be. That Succubus cutscene is burned into my mind as the most irritatingly juvenile bit I've ever seen in a game.

There's also the boss battles which are lackluster(although if this Dante mocked them in a playful manner, it would've been very funny but no).

Ironically, Dante's redesign is one of the only things I found good about the game, especially when he regains his white hair. My problems are 1. Ninja Theory's being dull try hard Edgelords, calling Dante a "gay cowboy" and sending back death threats to old fans. 2. Vergil in general, I honestly believe a pineapple would have made a better plot twist villain. 3. Vergils downfall, although it gave us an original story, it was boring and didn't improve on Vergil as a character, which I honestly prefer how the normal SE does it. 4. There where better games that did edgy right, being No More Heroes, MadWorld, Bayonetta and Metal Gear Rising. 5. Kate was somehow more useless than Kyrie during DMC4, and that's saying something! 6. All enemies moved more predictable than the other instalments, with the exception of Dream Runner. 7. The story doesn't know when to be serious or when to be funny. 8. The soundtrack was butchered compared to the album versions. 9. Out of everything they changed why couldn't Vergil be on our side? Why did he need to become demon king, seriously back to the pineapple. 10. Angel and Devil Mode were useless style replacements. 11. All bosses sucked besides Bob.

I’ve come to notice that Vergil tends to be voice by former Power Ranger actors. In DMC 3 and 5, Vergil is voiced by Daniel Southworth who played Eric Meyers aka the Quantum Ranger from Time Force. The DMC reboot Vergil is voiced by David De Lautour who played RJ aka the Purple Wolf Ranger from Jungle Fury. Also something semi unrelated, Jill in Resident Evil 5 is voiced by Patricia Ja Lee who played both the Pink Turbo Ranger and Pink Space Ranger. And seeing Johnny Yong Bosch, a former Power Ranger actor, has voiced a lot of Capcom characters including Nero, I think that Capcom tends to use former Power Ranger actors as voice actors.

Hell last time I saw a half angel half demon was on Wattpad. And there's the whole narrative of Mundus was the most powerful demon so he is automatically the King which does the original a huge disservice. Old Mindus wasn't the strongest hell he was far from it. He rose to power through manipulation and making friends with the right people and undermining any problems that could rise up. Now thats a good villain. Not big power slimeball in the reboot.

Some of the designs are good(even though the creators did insult the OG designs) and the story is a mix bag. I enjoy certain characters like Phineas and the different take on the story of Dante and Virgil. However the game falls flat on the reasoning for all of this. In the original Devil May Cry, Mundus kill only Vergil(until we find out Dante kinda killed Vergil in 3) and now for some reason it was his mother now. Dante however didn't know about this until a flashback after he gain his angel powers(which still mixed on if they are either Half Demon/Half Angel or Demon/Human) with the Scythe. Also the excessive use of F*ck you was annoying.

I played the DLC for this game with Vergil and it was pretty interesting I do want to see sequel to it. I love original DMC game along with DMC3, I wasn't a fan of DMC4 at first but now became a huge fan of along with DMC5 which was so damn good.

I love this game but I understand the hate. The first time I saw that awful Tokyo game show trailer I knew I was gonna hate the game but my dad had gotten it for me anyway so I had to try it and it was (in my opinion) awesome. Absolutely not my fav DMC, but satisfied my cravings during the DMC drought. Good video though, you make fire content!

I enjoyed DmC when I first played through back when it came out. Even had a friend who enjoyed it as well. I thought the combat was also pretty fun if a little predictable at times. Later on, I grabbed it again with the definitive version. I still enjoyed it overall, but the writing and gameplay haven't aged as well. And they did swear too much. But I so think a lot of the visual design for the environments was great. Limbo itself was really neat with how it twists and distorts. I do think they should've kept the DmC Vergil as a good guy. It would've made it a bit more unique. Ah well.

I think I would've enjoyed the visual a bit more if the original game wasn't capped at 30 FPS, made things a bit too rugged for my tastes

Honestly dmc2 Dante > reboot Dante lmao Also one of my biggest pet peeves with this game beyond how dirty they did Dante and Vergil is Lilith. They took one of the most bad ass goddesses/demons (depends who you ask) from both paagn and Jewish mythology and ruined her (while I have no direct evidence they based the games Lilith off her real life mythology counter part it would be a pretty big coincedence if they didn't lmao.

As controversial as that game was, I actually enjoyed the game as a whole, the music was cool & matched the tone the game was trying to go for as well as introduced me to Combichrist, the gameplay was pretty great, the story was okay (it wasn’t good nor was it bad), & the voice acting was… meh. Other than that, I actually enjoyed it regardless of what people say as this was my introduction into the Devil May Cry universe, along with DMC4 SE. Also, everyone has their opinions. You stick with yours, I’ll stick to mine, & the rest of the viewers will stick to theirs. (P.S. if you happen to read this, I apologize for making you waste your time when you have other things to do)

Ah yes, I remember when this came out. I spent a good week replaying 4 before buying this and honestly? Game play could be fun, but whatever fun you had was bogged down by well...everything else. Also, I thought it was a mop head that flew onto Donte, but don't quote me on that.

I liked this one. Yeah its basically Ichigo Kurosaki in DMC it was still a interesting change for me. The music also killed. I could see him turn from the stuck up teen to the lovable dante we have now since there is a big age gap. At least it beat DMC 2 cause that Dante was a drone

If this game wasn’t called devil may cry it would’ve been received so much better. I genuinely enjoyed this game. I thought the gameplay was fun and the world design was genuinely interesting. I just didn’t like how they disrespected their legacy

A dumb idea, but it'd be cool for some multiverse shit where the og crew run into the DmC one. Donte is already a tiny bit reformed by the end of his game, maybe he could have a whole mentoring thing with the real Dante, I don't know what the plot would look like however, that shit sounds hard

I've heard the definitive edition is a major improvement to the game, which i believe. However like MangaKamen this was not the game I played on release and even more of a clown moment, the PC version is the vanilla version. I played the Reboot when i went through the franchise in highschool. I played them in release order and yeah they become my favorite games of all time. But when i got to this it was like hitting a brick wall. I had played the games back to back to back so i didn't have nostalgia i literally played them in the same year and even I didn't like DINO. DMC: devil may cry feels like it was made by 13 year olds trying to be adult because "IM NOT A KID ANYMORE I'M 13 I PLAY COD AND I WATCH HORROR MOVIES".

Dante was always edgy to me,they did make him edgier here but still it felt more realistic somehow,more grounded,felt like if demons existed,it would make sense that they'd take over the world that way and they'd keep their presence hidden. Also combat was great,switching weapons was amazingly fluid,and the music was top notch,the hate all came from Dante's design, personally I didn't hate it,and I'd like to see what they'd do with a sequel.

I find it funny how I never knew DMC 4 was even a thing. I always thought Nero was a new character in 5. Yes, even though it was called 5, I didn't know 4 existed until WELL AFTER 5 came out. I thought 5 was like them kinda acknowledging the reboots existence, but not giving it any canonicity. I don't know why I came up with that reason when a much more obvious answer was pretty much staring me in the face, but I still laugh when I think about it. Kinda like how I laugh at the idea of Virgil actually managing to have a kid even though there's not a real person in the world that would wanna have his kid outside of the weirdos that say they would even though they know they couldn't support it, and knowing that there's no way in hell Virgil would pay his child support.
