DMC's Dante sequestered in a separate universe
Nov 2nd 2011 1:03PM (Joystiq)I don't understand how you consider yourself a fan of anything if you're pushing for such massively unwanted and unwarranted change. The novels weren't even that great and didn't really explain a lot of things. Also Vergil died in the first game in the series. It wasn't until the third game that it was really revealed how badass Vergil was. Nero was his stand-in in 4. Devil May Cry 2 was thrust way into the future of the series so fans' fears of the series' direction pretty much disappeared.
The story is actually really pretty solid for the B-movie writing and atmosphere, and it doesn't really contradict itself.
It's not like the game is played for the story anyway, it's just a backdrop for the intense style and action the game throws at you, and also for badass characters to get increasingly more badass, and get into badass conflicts wih other badasses.

Nov 2nd 2011 12:56PM (Joystiq)Well maybe, it's too early to tell for me. Some aspects I enjoy, like the combo action, but it seems slower and more God of War-y and less Devil May Cry.

Nov 2nd 2011 12:52PM (Joystiq)That seems to be the main problem fans of the series have as well.
I could have done without the meth addict-look and also the Tameem Antoniades self-insert.
But then Ninja Theory was like "btw we got writers from fanfiction.net to write for us" and told us Dante was Half-Angel, Half-Demon now. It was weird and they were constantly rage-baiting the fans and not giving an f.
But at least it finally registered with Capcom what was going on.

Nov 2nd 2011 12:44PM (Joystiq)You are one of the very few who think that. The story is pretty solid and still has room to grow, especially after 4. And every time a DMC article is posted you post in it and a bunch of the fans kick your "facts" in the dirt and say otherwise. I don't understand why you continuously talk down the main series of games and always talk up this wild reimagining of the DMC Universe.
