You mean a free Mobil game there are many of aaa Mobil games for one buy and you get everything without 💩 in app purchases. Like alien isolation,hitman blood money ,resident evil 4 remake, resident evil village and many more.
That my friend is called bad combat design... See in the actual dmc games there is no cool down... Why ? Well that's cause the combat is so incredible that just spamming feels wrong due to how well your combos and moves flow into one another... So the stinger flows well into other moves and therefore the devs don't need to worry about us spamming it cause using all your other moves to combo with it just feels too good Having a cool down shows that the combos in this don't flow well if at all and so since there is no reason to use them people will just stinger spam
Stinger shouldn't even be a skill button. Dance Macabre should to save your screen. Stinger should be an infinite use "invisible skill". Something not on the list but useable(like Shin Akuma's Misogi bs)
I mean I get this comment but I think having him use beowulf would make sense for the boss cause the bosses weakness was shield breaking character and if they used the yamato version of Vergil it would have been pure overkill
I haven’t been following development very closely, so initially I didn’t really understand why everyone was disappointed with the final version, for a mobile version, I thought it looked great. Then I saw the final minute of the old gameplay. I now understand.
Well, they separated both Dante and Vergil into a few different characters. Example : if you managed to gacha vergil w/ beowulf, he is counted as 1 character and cannot switch weapons. It is basically just like what Hoyoverse did to their characters. And also, DMC verse got like 7 playable characters so far, they needed to expand the characters for gacha.
They utterly neutered the combat system to make way for a watered down pgr character swap and later someone is gonna stand in a boardroom being asking why the game had mediocre reception while lots of eye rolls were being had.
@@YasaiTsume Let's be honest, pgr takes from many games which is why it's great. Dmc has its own thing to begin with and is watered down from that. The switching is older than pgr. Much older.
some might have good expectation and some don't and that's crazy! but if that what you expected and like how the game work out i have nothing to judge and against you.
They most likely changed the combat system for monetary reasons rather than "accessibility", they want you to buy higher tier variants of the characters since they have more upgrades/abilities to use for actually good combos. I sort of expected they'd do something like this in the finalized version since it seems like the main goal of modern mobile games nowadays is entirely focused on trying to squeeze wallets rather than player satisfaction, but it's still really disappointing seeing this happen.
I just want they to give us a chance to get higher quality characters for free, with some effort ofc but not impossible to get by f2p. The mobile game industry makes a lot of money and they need investors for profit and making their other games better. I just want to at leas get what ordinary people will get in dmc5 as i love vergil but if he is paid character i won't buy it. I got pc DMC5 and will enjoy it there i don't pay for mobile games cos they aren't worth it...(i only have terraria who is game i have played for over 10years and its future complete game ever)
Sucks that the finalized version they went with is far different than the old beta version of the game. And the fact it's a mobile gacha, locking 3 different version of Vergil including Dante is a punch in a gut... makes me laugh ironically Really wish the combat system is the old one like in the final part of the video... but nope, even though it's still a dmc game for mobile P.S. the fact that the Rebellion looks more like it in the beta compare of the "victory blade" and you can shoot your guns in the beta... what a waste of cutting it off
I think I know why they replaced the weapon switching system with character switching since this will be another gacha game people will have to summon characters to play with their favorite devil arms,skins,weapons etc and that will cost real money or a lot of grinding thats how the gacha system works and its a fast cash grab easy...
up until the end i was "aren't you kind of to harsh" then i saw the combos at the end.... *they have to put those angi and rudra combos in dmc 6 NOW I NEED IT!*
Addition: Actually, they lock the "Rebellion" via weapon skin for his "Victory Blade". Same goes for Lady's SMG, Nero's "Red Queen" via skin, and Forced Edge. Which comes to mind, there are DMC1 and DMC2 Dante costume or skins in the previous beta. But for "mobile live service", yeah... who knows where they go now... spend that money and get a terrible gacha rate regardless
variants should be treated like skins and there should have not been variants with weapons being exclusive to the variants, it so sad that a company like this would want to put profit and minimize any fun to be had with this game.

I really thank Nelo, BeeG and Zen for showing an actual close-like DMC actual combat system tribute and showing how an actual DMC game should feel and look.
It’s so weird to see Raves pull towards the enemy, but maybe that’s necessary. Really it just feels like they missed the mark just barely. Like there’s accurate recreations of so many attacks and bosses here so someone clearly cared.
At first I was like it looks good for a dmc mobile game. Good for new players to taste dmc for the first time and maybe transition later. Then I saw the old combat and I was like oh...what happened here. Im guessing they wanted to make it easier for the newer players
@@darweath gacha for weapons instead of characters? although it would severely restrict character building, because there are not many options even right now(if you try to build a "team" with only nero variants, for example). If there was more content, it could be done.
Gotta get people to keep voicing their distaste for the gameplay, make sure the message gets across. And let 'em know their choice in va's in conjunction with the reused voice lines are a shit decision they need to address
I'll put this into the "I can't wait for people to get into the files and mod it to be better" catergory, or better yet, put them into the other games. I digress.
i'm still hoping out there, some mad lad actually ported the game to the beta version and can be played without login and having to use WiFi or Data for 24/7.
@@omegamagnus0657 yeah, HI3rd set the standard for mobile DMC type games, heck the control UI in DMC Peak of Combat reminds me a lot of HI3rd 4 action button scheme (evade, attack, weapon, ult or in APHO there is also jump button to replace weapon) and the character switching. PGR is pretty much a more polished version of HI3rd in terms of gameplay and graphics, and somehow that game still have a more interesting combat compared to whatever mess this is without having a jump button combo.
bro just showed with the ending the name was actually true. but damn they really dropped the ball on that one. i swear thats the revenge for buying DMC5 Vergil for like 2 bucks when on sale.
Honkai 3 has its own charm, do yell that was the very first 3D mobile graphics action game that time. But seeing dmc poc like this is heart breaking to what the hell we even waited patiently for?? For what? Garbage. Greed. Demolished. Rip
Its a super pedantic thing. But it bugs me that they have dante holster Ebony and Ivory in the wrong spots. He usually has Ebony of the left and Ivory on the right
Seeing what the old poc combat system was like I can understand the disappointment but at the end of the day I’m just hype for a dmc mobile game to be out
The combat is actually better than many mobile games recently tho. Stylish flashy aerial attack hasn't been that good on mobile since TOF or Hundred Souls
yea it is but coming from og dmc- dmc V and beta POC this just feels wrong i don't get why they ditched the old combat model, to me dmc was always the peak of hack n slash combat still is it's one of the only games after 100% completing 1-5 i still replay becauseof how open the combat is and how rewarding it is to pull of that sick sss combo after practicing each part of the combo, ik mobile controls have limitation but it think this could have been way better just going with old combat model
@@N1xkoi think they removed it cus they don’t want toddlers who can barely think complain about how hard it is to do combos so they made it simple and easy like the rest of hack and slash rpg games, that’s the only explanation i could think of other than something like small phone screens just being filled up with thousands of control buttons on their screen
Yes But it's still extremely done dirty compared to the old version and at this point isn't it better off to just go play pgr, since it currently has the best combat on mobile games
@@faz0ulzI can think of a better explanation. They simplified the gameplay on purpose to make the game harder, I know it sounds weird, making the game easier so it's actually harder, the point is, with a simplified gameplay, defeating a boss does not depends on your skill anymore, it's about grinding for XP levels and getting SSS tier characters from the gacha system, there is no way to play the game without paying now that the game is too hard for a free 2 play player. In other words, they made it pay2win
worst part: They absolutely could have combined these two factors, and everyone wouldn't care about the gacha as much. they even could have doubled enemy stats across the board, and combined both of your weapon's stats to make your player.
The live version sure does look disappointing for how long they were developing it versus other action gacha games we can play now, Kuro games leaving them all in the trash. Can't wait for wuthering waves to release.
Even Hoyoverse games give better character switch elements than this game. If you want fast phased timing, go to punishing gray raven or Honkai Impact 3rd. If you want mixing elements like a rogue scientist, go to Genshin Impact but don't pay attention to Spiral Abyss. Either way, these games would have better story telling than Peak of Combat I think.
@@Son0f-Sparda yeah, like they literally locked it behind the gacha system instead of making Vergil have it on default and the Vergil you got on early game is beowulf
ok after seeing this... i'm not wasting my time with this game, thank you. I was planning to play around in PoC, But i might as well play Skyrim with DmC mod as well.
actually dmc poc v1.0 can still be played as long as you have an account before the 2.0 update because here I can still play old combat v1.0 so you could say there are 2 versions of this game.
damn i remembered, somehow i was able to play the v1.0 because of though fake chinese random number generation, too bad i lost it. isn't there anyway to play it with a new account? i still have the game on but the server always full, like literally everything is full on RED server.
Kinda wish i still have the account because also did the same thing as arandomguy said, using fake chinese phone number to play the game. But now i lost it tbh.
I think i comment too much... but the more i realize as i keep watching this video and play the game myself, Nero (Free, purple Epic gacha grade) plays almost like the previous beta Dante of old POC combat system but being simplified with his Streak is dodge+attack, and can use his gun... unlike *ahem* Dante. Is it to soften the wound on what they've done or something? Meh... it's kinda not enough, if i'm being brutal about it. The fact that the battles is artificially increased in difficulty, even you got floored when the game said "Highly Difficult for you" and your characters under-levelled just goes to show. Doesn't help that each battles also timed, which is not helping other than add another artificial pressure (is what i feel) when compare to other DMC games. The game is still CBT, isn't it? But at this point, changing things back is not possible i imagine. You are not alone. I swear i'm also not feel motivated when i got to try Vergil (Devil Crusher) for a bit in that one fight against Phantom and realized "he's locked behind the paywall" I should also add some writing like yours in my player info lol "bring back the old combat system." I may edit the pinned comment, quiet the humble honor my comment got pinned by you, sir youtuber. You play really great and your game is stable, along you use the gamepad compare to me when i try play the game and suck at it big time. You should show this video in the game's discord server. What device are you playing it on? Scratch that, i cannot/isn't allowed to edit my comment that got pinned by you.
It's not only the difficulty that's artificial, it's also the combat system. When each move is given an individual button it makes button mashing a viable option and takes away the difficulty of executing moves consecutively -which is what makes combat interesting, fun and challenging in the first place-. Let's take dmc3 for an example, button mashing in dmc3 will probably end up bad since you most likely will be doing combo 1, stinger and million stabs randomly and not hitting anyone most of the time. Not to mention, you will not get a good style rank. In poc however, button mashing will execute different abilities, hit your enemies and get a good style rank. It will work as long as enemies you face aren't overleveled, which shows that combat being artificial is another reason why difficulty is artificial.
The beta had a combat system like dmc5 even a little better now you can't change weapons and theres cooldowns for almost everthing "What the hell is this?"
Games like these, makes me appreciate we got powerful handheld PC's nowadays like the Steam Deck or Rog Ally so we wouldn't have to deal with this type of mobile trash.
The style meter so wrong in this game. It suppose to be like this, defining the condition of the game: - Disappointing! - Crap! - Bad! - Ass! - Sad! - Shitty Sad! - So Shitty Sad!
I find it so weird how they hired a new VA for Dante in this game, but reuse DMC 5 Dante's grunts and such for fights, when they sound nothing alike lol
Watched this a while ago, but I watch this again discovering that Devil Crusher(Vergil) had an actual air kick combo... Way to dick me out on so many co-ops in which I had to basically watch people fight Nightmare Carus. And ineffectively hitting the Hellfilth's head. And y'know, just wanting an actual combo in *a series notorious for SSStylish combos*
I havent played POC yet since my device isnt compatible with the game (*cries in potato phone), but after seeing your gameplay, my personal opinion about this game: Plus point 1. The switching character feature actually dope, it remind me with Sonic frontiers where we can switch characters 2. THE MID AIR STINGER BUTTON!! OH GOSH!! This is kind of moveset i lowkey want in the og console/pc DMC game Bonus plus point: To be honest, Vergil protecting Dante from phantom are wholesome af, it seem like he realize Dante is the last family he had (beside Nero of course), and he decide to stop fighting him and try his best to become a good brother for him, say what you want, but im tired to see Vergil being depicted as a deadbeat man who dont care about his family and rather see them as an obstacle, while the truth Vergil probably want to change himself after all shenanigans in his life. Negative point 1. I dont like how they decide to remove Dante's iconic guns, like why? Those gun really help me much in combat 2. Dont get me wrong, i love beouwolf, but i personally annoyed with how they choose Beouwolf instead of Yamato as Vergil's basic and unlocked weapon, Yamato has become Vergil's character symbol, yet they choose to replace it, even lock it and turn it into some gacha object (Also, Beouwolf being called as Devil crusher 💀) 3. Pizza? As some energy recharge food? Seriously? 4. I dont think micro transaction and DMC pair would work, idk, but to see DMC became a gacha pay to win game.. it just weird for me. 5. I think this is the main problem of this game beside gacha, the point of the og DMC game is "Challenge" and "Creativity", the og game isnt affraid to torture the newbie player with some challenging challenging gameplay, the style indicator that is hard to be increased and will reset when you got hit by the enemy also told us to be creative and make it look easy when it comes to beat the enemy, this is what make DMC the hack n slash game i love and adore, that was something the old system manage to capture, but no, they instead choose to throw it away and instead did a pay to win move.. if the reason is to attract newbie who know nothing about DMC, arent that will cause shock culture when they found out the og DMC gameplay is actually dificult and hand torturing
Only if young Dante had his old DmC 3 system of combat voices and lines and everything of DMC 3 Dante bro has a mix of 3 and 5 of Dante in this as on young dante
Had a feeling it wasn't going to be that good, and lo' and behold, I tried a demo and felt immensely dissatisfied, especially when I realized it was a full gacha that locked characters, moves and weapons behind it. Forget this, I'll just play Dmc 1, 3, 4 and 5 again.
DMC: Piss of Combat: We decided to reduce the combos for more Gachas. PGR: Crimson Wave will have Combo Movesets, with no need of change to other characters to maximize the damage. Oh the only upside on the Piss of Combat is the music. Fire Inside is a banger.
I don’t mind, as someone who’s only played dmc3 (only 1-3 was on switch and I thought 3 was the easiest) at least there’s more mid air combat for rebellion than Ariel rave and helm breaker
@@user-qx1id1dt8xDMC 3 with some moveset from 4 and 5 which in alright with but the audacity to remove weapon switch is outrageous. Even if Dante has 2 weapons that's fine, after all DMC 3 Dante only had 2 weapons and guns and style switching on the fly was only implemented on the switch which is also understandable. They ruined the game
I was literally waiting for this game cause of how sick i was of genshin/honkai impact/tower of fantasy combat…. Guess im just waiting for an actual new dmc game then….
Knowing DMC but mobile being a gacha gives me whiplash despite playing too much gacha myself. I don’t even know what idea are they cooking to have the gacha work in the long term.
They knew what they were doing by locking Yamato virgil behind a paywall. I hope this game burns to the ground because they can't be doing DMC like this. •Locking literally combat styles behind a paywall •putting horrible time restrictions on story battles to force you to pony up more money in order to brute force it. (I've tried as a f2p as per usual some enemies will just become too tanks for you to kill even if you are a DMC messiah •the co-op would be funny if it didn't force you to have multiple characters just fully complete. • extreme dodge and lady having an actual air dash were probably the only 2 good things I can say about this game because after that it's just another *milk the IP for money* kind of game imo
i mean i guess we can’t really complain, it’s free and it’s a mobile game Edit: i just noticed when you get SSS rank it doesn’t say *Smokin’ Sexy Style!* so we definitely do have something to complain about

Really it just feels like they missed the mark just barely. Like there’s accurate recreations of so many attacks and bosses here so someone clearly cared.
The question is... who?
man, this is making _me_ cry
Player May Cry 😭💀
At first I was like it looks good for a dmc mobile game. Good for new players to taste dmc for the first time and maybe transition later. Then I saw the old combat and I was like oh...what happened here. Im guessing they wanted to make it easier for the newer players
Nah total bs. i dont buy that excuse at all
Old ver. just dont have many way to bait people to spend for ingame shit. so here we are

@@darweath gacha for weapons instead of characters? although it would severely restrict character building, because there are not many options even right now(if you try to build a "team" with only nero variants, for example). If there was more content, it could be done.

Gotta get people to keep voicing their distaste for the gameplay, make sure the message gets across. And let 'em know their choice in va's in conjunction with the reused voice lines are a shit decision they need to address
I'll put this into the "I can't wait for people to get into the files and mod it to be better" catergory, or better yet, put them into the other games. I digress.
i'm still hoping out there, some mad lad actually ported the game to the beta version and can be played without login and having to use WiFi or Data for 24/7.
@@ColorSettingsis there anything new I missed in these last months, and fanmade games perhaps?

Punishing Gray Raven really did put my mobile gaming expectations very high even though this is actually decent gameplay.
Not really, it's just a more refined version of hi3. ZZZ and Wuthering waves is going to have that ACTUAL dmc like combat that we all know and love
@@omegamagnus0657 ZZZ makes me yapping dawg 😭
@@omegamagnus0657 yeah, HI3rd set the standard for mobile DMC type games, heck the control UI in DMC Peak of Combat reminds me a lot of HI3rd 4 action button scheme (evade, attack, weapon, ult or in APHO there is also jump button to replace weapon) and the character switching.
PGR is pretty much a more polished version of HI3rd in terms of gameplay and graphics, and somehow that game still have a more interesting combat compared to whatever mess this is without having a jump button combo.
Now theyre getting a collab

اتفق معك
bro just showed with the ending the name was actually true.
but damn they really dropped the ball on that one.
i swear thats the revenge for buying DMC5 Vergil for like 2 bucks when on sale.
they literally downgraded the gameplay to HI3's level
Somehow, this makes sense in multiple levels
Let's be honest, the gameplay is better than hi3rd
Like ong, i miss the 1st version of this game
Honkai 3 has its own charm, do yell that was the very first 3D mobile graphics action game that time. But seeing dmc poc like this is heart breaking to what the hell we even waited patiently for?? For what? Garbage. Greed. Demolished.
Rip
at least hi3 has flashiness and some variation instead of this empty husk of dmc
Bro... that dodge attack was just APHO Adam's dodge attack~
And they had the audacity to put cooldown on stinger~!
that's crazy.
Damn. The best part of this whole project will probably remain Fire Inside. That song is fire
Its a super pedantic thing. But it bugs me that they have dante holster Ebony and Ivory in the wrong spots. He usually has Ebony of the left and Ivory on the right

Nah jk i get your point but its so irrelevant that it doesnt matter
I saw an ad for this early in the morning and thought I was hallucinating... wish that was the case.

What did you expect from a gacha cashgrab

Well there goes a perfectly good day ruined by...this... I have no words...
Seeing what the old poc combat system was like I can understand the disappointment but at the end of the day I’m just hype for a dmc mobile game to be out
peak is a strong word
literally
The extreme counter is literally the counter from honkai impact's APHO XD
Oh really? I didn't know that lol
POC's combat really downgraded to HI3's level of low
the irony of HI3,having character action gameplay inspired by Bayo/DMC having a better gameplay than POC
@@TheKenny2113 Ha(in Joe Swanson voice)
The combat is actually better than many mobile games recently tho. Stylish flashy aerial attack hasn't been that good on mobile since TOF or Hundred Souls
yea it is but coming from og dmc- dmc V and beta POC this just feels wrong i don't get why they ditched the old combat model, to me dmc was always the peak of hack n slash combat still is it's one of the only games after 100% completing 1-5 i still replay becauseof how open the combat is and how rewarding it is to pull of that sick sss combo after practicing each part of the combo, ik mobile controls have limitation but it think this could have been way better just going with old combat model
@@N1xkoi think they removed it cus they don’t want toddlers who can barely think complain about how hard it is to do combos so they made it simple and easy like the rest of hack and slash rpg games, that’s the only explanation i could think of other than something like small phone screens just being filled up with thousands of control buttons on their screen
Yes
But it's still extremely done dirty compared to the old version and at this point isn't it better off to just go play pgr, since it currently has the best combat on mobile games
@@faz0ulzI can think of a better explanation. They simplified the gameplay on purpose to make the game harder, I know it sounds weird, making the game easier so it's actually harder, the point is, with a simplified gameplay, defeating a boss does not depends on your skill anymore, it's about grinding for XP levels and getting SSS tier characters from the gacha system, there is no way to play the game without paying now that the game is too hard for a free 2 play player. In other words, they made it pay2win
@@Johnnymeloveo or instead you invest hundreds of hours into the game doing daily quests and whatnot.
worst part: They absolutely could have combined these two factors, and everyone wouldn't care about the gacha as much.
they even could have doubled enemy stats across the board, and combined both of your weapon's stats to make your player.
The live version sure does look disappointing for how long they were developing it versus other action gacha games we can play now, Kuro games leaving them all in the trash. Can't wait for wuthering waves to release.
the last clip is literally DMC:PoC but the combat is actually peak
NOOOO WHY DID THEY CHANGED ITTT IT LOOKED SO GOOD WHAT WERE THEY EVEN THINKING NOOOOOO
DMC Peak of Combat before release:🗿
DMC Peak of Combat now:💩

@@user-qx1id1dt8x Such as?
Punishing gray raven:
Even Hoyoverse games give better character switch elements than this game. If you want fast phased timing, go to punishing gray raven or Honkai Impact 3rd. If you want mixing elements like a rogue scientist, go to Genshin Impact but don't pay attention to Spiral Abyss. Either way, these games would have better story telling than Peak of Combat I think.
they made dante looks like anime 😭

@@Son0f-Sparda yeah, like they literally locked it behind the gacha system instead of making Vergil have it on default and the Vergil you got on early game is beowulf
ok after seeing this... i'm not wasting my time with this game, thank you.
I was planning to play around in PoC,
But i might as well play Skyrim with DmC mod as well.
btw just think if they added the character switch in the dmc 4 or dmc 5 it would be amazing
The HIIIIYAAAHH for stinger changed and it did not need to change…
After delay, delay and this what we got.....rip
actually dmc poc v1.0 can still be played as long as you have an account before the 2.0 update because here I can still play old combat v1.0 so you could say there are 2 versions of this game.
damn i remembered, somehow i was able to play the v1.0 because of though fake chinese random number generation, too bad i lost it.
isn't there anyway to play it with a new account? i still have the game on but the server always full, like literally everything is full on RED server.
@@arandomguy9413nope you cant create new one cause 1.0 dont update anymore
Kinda wish i still have the account because also did the same thing as arandomguy said, using fake chinese phone number to play the game. But now i lost it tbh.
wow the old system looked way better im impressed didnt think a moblie game was capable of that that old system should be the standard
Let's hope they bring back the old combat
we'll see give it a month
Ok but Air Million Stab is honestly sick af
true true
Made me realise how good of a fight the original Nevan is, especially with original voice actress for her.
I think i comment too much... but the more i realize as i keep watching this video and play the game myself, Nero (Free, purple Epic gacha grade) plays almost like the previous beta Dante of old POC combat system but being simplified with his Streak is dodge+attack, and can use his gun... unlike *ahem* Dante. Is it to soften the wound on what they've done or something? Meh... it's kinda not enough, if i'm being brutal about it.
The fact that the battles is artificially increased in difficulty, even you got floored when the game said "Highly Difficult for you" and your characters under-levelled just goes to show. Doesn't help that each battles also timed, which is not helping other than add another artificial pressure (is what i feel) when compare to other DMC games. The game is still CBT, isn't it? But at this point, changing things back is not possible i imagine.
You are not alone. I swear i'm also not feel motivated when i got to try Vergil (Devil Crusher) for a bit in that one fight against Phantom and realized "he's locked behind the paywall"
I should also add some writing like yours in my player info lol "bring back the old combat system."
I may edit the pinned comment, quiet the humble honor my comment got pinned by you, sir youtuber. You play really great and your game is stable, along you use the gamepad compare to me when i try play the game and suck at it big time. You should show this video in the game's discord server. What device are you playing it on?
Scratch that, i cannot/isn't allowed to edit my comment that got pinned by you.
It's not only the difficulty that's artificial, it's also the combat system. When each move is given an individual button it makes button mashing a viable option and takes away the difficulty of executing moves consecutively -which is what makes combat interesting, fun and challenging in the first place-. Let's take dmc3 for an example, button mashing in dmc3 will probably end up bad since you most likely will be doing combo 1, stinger and million stabs randomly and not hitting anyone most of the time. Not to mention, you will not get a good style rank. In poc however, button mashing will execute different abilities, hit your enemies and get a good style rank. It will work as long as enemies you face aren't overleveled, which shows that combat being artificial is another reason why difficulty is artificial.
This feels like "Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening" in an alternate universe where it wasn't a banger, sad to witness.
The beta had a combat system like dmc5 even a little better now you can't change weapons and theres cooldowns for almost everthing
"What the hell is this?"
I FORGIVE YOU FOR EVERYTHING X DIVE
Games like these, makes me appreciate we got powerful handheld PC's nowadays like the Steam Deck or Rog Ally so we wouldn't have to deal with this type of mobile trash.
Don't know why my first thought when seeing the HUD was: "crisis core remake"
it does have that kind of look
The style meter so wrong in this game. It suppose to be like this, defining the condition of the game:
- Disappointing!
- Crap!
- Bad!
- Ass!
- Sad!
- Shitty Sad!
- So Shitty Sad!
maybe they might re-decision on what they did, who knows.
It’s worth noting that it’s subtitle on the App Store is that it’s “the only licensed DMC game” as if there was no, such thing as one before
I find it so weird how they hired a new VA for Dante in this game, but reuse DMC 5 Dante's grunts and such for fights, when they sound nothing alike lol
Watched this a while ago, but I watch this again discovering that Devil Crusher(Vergil) had an actual air kick combo...
Way to dick me out on so many co-ops in which I had to basically watch people fight Nightmare Carus. And ineffectively hitting the Hellfilth's head. And y'know, just wanting an actual combo in *a series notorious for SSStylish combos*
I havent played POC yet since my device isnt compatible with the game (*cries in potato phone), but after seeing your gameplay, my personal opinion about this game:
Plus point
1. The switching character feature actually dope, it remind me with Sonic frontiers where we can switch characters
2. THE MID AIR STINGER BUTTON!! OH GOSH!! This is kind of moveset i lowkey want in the og console/pc DMC game
Bonus plus point: To be honest, Vergil protecting Dante from phantom are wholesome af, it seem like he realize Dante is the last family he had (beside Nero of course), and he decide to stop fighting him and try his best to become a good brother for him, say what you want, but im tired to see Vergil being depicted as a deadbeat man who dont care about his family and rather see them as an obstacle, while the truth Vergil probably want to change himself after all shenanigans in his life.
Negative point
1. I dont like how they decide to remove Dante's iconic guns, like why? Those gun really help me much in combat
2. Dont get me wrong, i love beouwolf, but i personally annoyed with how they choose Beouwolf instead of Yamato as Vergil's basic and unlocked weapon, Yamato has become Vergil's character symbol, yet they choose to replace it, even lock it and turn it into some gacha object (Also, Beouwolf being called as Devil crusher 💀)
3. Pizza? As some energy recharge food? Seriously?
4. I dont think micro transaction and DMC pair would work, idk, but to see DMC became a gacha pay to win game.. it just weird for me.
5. I think this is the main problem of this game beside gacha, the point of the og DMC game is "Challenge" and "Creativity", the og game isnt affraid to torture the newbie player with some challenging challenging gameplay, the style indicator that is hard to be increased and will reset when you got hit by the enemy also told us to be creative and make it look easy when it comes to beat the enemy, this is what make DMC the hack n slash game i love and adore, that was something the old system manage to capture, but no, they instead choose to throw it away and instead did a pay to win move.. if the reason is to attract newbie who know nothing about DMC, arent that will cause shock culture when they found out the og DMC gameplay is actually dificult and hand torturing
After vergil rescue dante in that cutscene. Dante literally next mission "where is vergil? i need to find him" unironically bruh moment
Only if young Dante had his old DmC 3 system of combat voices and lines and everything of DMC 3 Dante bro has a mix of 3 and 5 of Dante in this as on young dante
bro this is genshin may cry
PGR*
Devil may cry: old combat peaked
Had a feeling it wasn't going to be that good, and lo' and behold, I tried a demo and felt immensely dissatisfied, especially when I realized it was a full gacha that locked characters, moves and weapons behind it.
Forget this, I'll just play Dmc 1, 3, 4 and 5 again.
I'm honestly even disgusted to say but I'm pretty the reboot and 2 are way better than 'this'
DMC: Piss of Combat: We decided to reduce the combos for more Gachas.
PGR: Crimson Wave will have Combo Movesets, with no need of change to other characters to maximize the damage.
Oh the only upside on the Piss of Combat is the music. Fire Inside is a banger.
To think this game exists to flop months before release is beyond me.
This is worse than Megaman X dive 💀
THEY TOOK SO MUCH FROM US😭😭😭
This is feel more like DMC reboot combat
The reboot dmc definitely has better combat than this
@kira4138 Indeed It is far better than this But what i mean was how easy to do one combo in this game But yes Dmc reboot combat are FARRR BETTER
I don’t mind, as someone who’s only played dmc3 (only 1-3 was on switch and I thought 3 was the easiest) at least there’s more mid air combat for rebellion than Ariel rave and helm breaker
true.
This is just DMC3 with extra steps and no switching
@@user-qx1id1dt8xDMC 3 with some moveset from 4 and 5 which in alright with but the audacity to remove weapon switch is outrageous.
Even if Dante has 2 weapons that's fine, after all DMC 3 Dante only had 2 weapons and guns and style switching on the fly was only implemented on the switch which is also understandable.
They ruined the game
I actually got the game, gameplay is, Ok at best, but the fact I need to buy everything is crazy
you know something is wrong when playing vergil doesnt make you feel motivated
I was literally waiting for this game cause of how sick i was of genshin/honkai impact/tower of fantasy combat…. Guess im just waiting for an actual new dmc game then….
New combat system: God of war
Old combat system: Devil May Cry
Tf u have against God of war man 💀
I can’t stop hearing Dante say the N word.
You can have a tag team with two characters? The series finally caught up with Oneechanbara!
It honkai may cry 3 now
Knowing DMC but mobile being a gacha gives me whiplash despite playing too much gacha myself.
I don’t even know what idea are they cooking to have the gacha work in the long term.
They knew what they were doing by locking Yamato virgil behind a paywall. I hope this game burns to the ground because they can't be doing DMC like this.
•Locking literally combat styles behind a paywall
•putting horrible time restrictions on story battles to force you to pony up more money in order to brute force it. (I've tried as a f2p as per usual some enemies will just become too tanks for you to kill even if you are a DMC messiah
•the co-op would be funny if it didn't force you to have multiple characters just fully complete.
• extreme dodge and lady having an actual air dash were probably the only 2 good things I can say about this game because after that it's just another *milk the IP for money* kind of game imo
THEY fucking need to bring old combot
i mean i guess we can’t really complain, it’s free and it’s a mobile game
Edit: i just noticed when you get SSS rank it doesn’t say *Smokin’ Sexy Style!* so we definitely do have something to complain about
"it's free and it's a mobile game"
Pgr is standing there
