@AmateurAnimations652 жыл бұрын
One of my favorite aspects about Vergil is, of all the video game characters I've ever played as, he's the only one that genuinely feels like he grows stronger and more powerful with each game he makes a playable appearance in. In most games that follow up a character's journey, the character doesn't really feel much stronger, it just feels like they pile on more weapons and powers while also taking some away. But with Vergil, he mostly has all the same weapons and powers, it's just they get fine tuned and perfected with each new appearance and gets a few new abilities. That's not to say other games or characters don't do this, it just feels more clear with Vergil to me. DMC3SE establishes the base line for his controls and moveset, from the 3 hit combo he keeps in all of his appearances to his iconic Judgement cut which at this point is just as iconic to vergil as the Yamato. It's ultimately a fairly limited moveset, but those limitations encourage creativity in using his abilities and weapons to the best of their ability. DmC may be infamous for just how bad it is especially in story, but it does add things to Vergil that would become staples in his gameplay from here on. Aside from tweaking his overall control a bit and giving him more combos to work with, it also introduces the Perfect Judgement Cut which, while a bit clunky in its first appearance would go on to be one of Vergil's most valuable tools in other appearances. It also introduces the embedded sword mechanic and giving Vergil doppelganger which he would bring back in 5. And for all the crap DmC understandably gets, it is to this day the only game to give Vergil a proper campaign. Not much of a campaign, but still, it's something. DMC4SE is where Vergil really started breaking the games he appears in. That's not to say he wasn't cool before, he was just a bit more balanced in 3 and DmC, but here, he just snaps the game in half. Aside from once again improving his controls, this game perfected the perfect judgement cut, gave his summoned swords a bit more utility, and introduced us to the concentration gauge which is just the perfect way to incorporate Vergil's character into his gameplay. It also gave us Judgement Cut End which just gives the finger to any enemy in Vergil's way. And finally, DMC5 perfected Vergil's control. From the amazing combos that make each weapon feel like an entire moveset on its own, to the ability to use three perfect judgement cuts back to back, to his little teleport dodges which are the perfect flexing tool for finessing demons, to Judgement Cut End somehow being even cooler along with three other super moves that just obliterate whatever fool stands before you, to having one of the coolest looking Devil Triggers in the series. This Vergil is for people who want to feel like a god among men, he just erases anyone that gets in his path, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Playing each of these appearances one after another gives you this feeling like you're actually watching Vergil's journey for power and seeing him go from just a badass swordsman, to one of the most broken videogame characters ever in the context of their own game, and whether you're the one in control or the one at the other end of his sword, you will remember the power of this motivated son of Sparda

Excellent video as always. One small correction though: Dante's royal guard in 5SE is always clearly telegraphed. When he's knocked away after a combo, he'd flash red, say "Royal Guard," and begin slowly walking toward you instead of running or teleporting. Then and only then does he use royal guard, so that's your cue to stop attacking and let him approach. And even if you accidentally attack him when he's in RG stance, his reflect can still be dodged with a timed trick dodge. It's such a good boss fight man

A lot of people have made the DMC Reboot canon in their own way, by either having DMC Dante be attempting to copy mainline Dante, or by it occurring in a parallel reality. After all, the MvC games, and Street Fighter 5 have shown that Capcom has a massive gaming universe/multiverse. I'd love it if reboot Dante got re-introduced to the mainline series. Obviously his name would need to change, but that could simply be him using a pseudonym. Maybe reboot Dante would go by Tony Redgrave (like mainline Dante did in his early years)

Two small things to mention about your segment of DMC5 SE 1. Vergil's Trick Dodge has longer recovery and gaps in i-frames by default, BUT if you time the dodge just before an attack hits, Vergil can chain multiple Trick Dodges with no gaps in i-frames, much like Nero's Table Hopper. Except unlike Nero, Vergil can chain as many dodges as he wants lol. Great for building Concentration and DT as well. 2. When fighting him as Vergil, Dante counterattacks with Royal Revenge, not Royal Release. And on top of it being possible to dodge the reprisal with good timing, the slowdown when Dante activates Royal Revenge helps telegraph the incoming attack. In some cases, you can even use it to your advantage by deliberately activating Dante's Royal Revenge and attacking after dodging it (though I don't think Dante will be in hitstun).

I just noticed and I am immediately obsessed with the Jackpot scene. Not only did Vergil DEFINITELY try to hit Dante to stop him, Dante knew that shit was coming and dodged it just ending it with both of them playing off the sudden violence so smoothly.

This video was worth the wait, thanks a bunch! I'm sure we don't need to wait another decade for a video game since DMC5 ended the saga and served as a finale which I'm fine with it ending the series(still no ladies night spin-off game but I guess I can try to be okay with it). The modders had already made PvP and literally everything to make the game look a lot better than Capcom's snarky decision-making, so there's no worries here. Vergil is truly a fan-favourite of the series with his technical gameplay as if you feel like Vergil, and 5 did a great job at that than in 3SE, in my opinion.

Aight you NEED to be made aware, as often as necessary, of the fact that 1hr+ of Vergil and DMC talk is a luscious treat for fans of the series. You have a way of working nuance into your delivery that prevents it from feeling like a copout and only makes me excited about the details you might've missed/skipped in your presentation. (e.g. your point on Royal Guard, which includes a special slowmo effect and is limited to the weaker version of Dante's gameplay for balance). And those 2 things are VERY praiseworthy.
@SomeAustrianGuy_3 жыл бұрын
I really can't describe how much I love Vergil. I always loved the more serious, brutal characters. From Aiden Pearce to Alex Mercer or from DoomGuy to Vergil, I love them all. Also, Vergil's moveset as a whole is just so goddamn satisfying, and as the man said himself, it just gets better after every entry. So, let's just put it like this, Dante may be the game's main character, but goddamn Vergil is the stories main character.

This was an incredible video. Really glad to see this series hadn't been quite over. Fantastic work across the board. Your editing proves itself top notch as usual. I don't really agree that concentration is a good mechanic tho, because intentionally whiffing attacks for stylish movement is something that is extremely fun to do and something which allows for a lot of creativity within DMC. Concentration punishes you for doing so. Also little correction. The Dante bossfight in 5 only has him do Royal Revenge. Royal Release would be unreactable and have him explode through you in an instant, most likely killing you in the process. Revenge in 5 you can relatively easily just dodge out of the way of, especially since anytime he's about to do it there's a big slowdown effect. It really isn't that bad. Personally I think it would have been cooler if he could also royal release you, as I believe he does in 4, but that'd just be unfair so nevermind. And quick tip. Trick cancels are good, but they still have traveltime and don't look too good. If you wanna repeatedly link Lunar Phase it's probably better to simply do it using JCs. Flows a lot more nicely

For avoiding getting clapped by Royal Guard release, when he says “Royal Guard” wait for him to strike than counter attack. If you do activate his release a well timed trick dodge will save you.

The best part about Bury the Light is that it’s what techno metal SHOULD’VE been instead of what it usually is. With the techno metal you find on KZbin and Spotify it’ll amount to a heavy guitar riff looped to some basic dubstep sound effects (which is not only lazy but contradictory to the metal half of the genre hybrid since metal is rooted in classical music inspired patters and arrangements). Bury the Light on the other hand decides to be a REAL song with a music structure and all (and a guitar solo for good measure)

@@ultimamage3 Those two have nothing to do with each other. How many characters did DMC2 have again? 3. How many does DMC5 have (for free)? 3. Would you look at that, it's the same amount. Massive difference being that all characters (including Vergil) are unique in their own way, unlike DMC2 where they're almost identical. Also, you're paying 5 bucks for new content that the devs worked on, it's a fair trade especially for 5 bucks. As for BP, you're being absurd. They obviously hadn't finished it by the time the game had to launch, so they delayed it till it was ready. Do you want unfinished/broken stuff or not? Cause most of us sure as hell don't.

@@zffrailgun1630 Someone pissed in your cereal or something? I still made a true statement. DMC2 is the last time there was a functioning Bloody Palace on disc _and_ you didn't have to _pay extra money_ to retread a campaign with a bonus character. You just unlocked Trish by playing and that was it. DMC3 Special Edition? Pay extra money for Vergil to repeat Dante's missions with two bonus cutscenes. DMC4 Special Edition? Pay extra money for Lady&Trish/Vergil to repeat Dante/Nero's missions with two bonus cutscenes. DMC5 Special Edition? Pay extra money for Vergil to repeat the cast's missions, with bonus cutscenes. DMC3 Special Edition is even the first and last time the Special Edition was built and released for the same console generation as the vanilla version. Every other SE was the next generation over. You can get pissed off and defensive about it to justify Capcom's nickel-and-diming the fanbase with content you can get from PC mods, but that doesn't make it any less true.
