- The party gets crazy in this complete series review of the fabled Devil May Cry hack and slash series.
Check out lyberty5's channel, he helped make the great art and animation used in this video:

It’s weird coming back to this video now that he’s the biggest DMC fan in the world
I was just gonna comment that but you were year before me lol
I'd love GamingBrit to re-review DMC 1 and 3 with his now newfound appreciation of the series.
@@dazitmane8905 If youre a Patron, he reviewed the Switch port of 3 2 years ago
Especially if you're like me, who saw his dmc5 review first
@@dazitmane8905 If he doesn't do a dmc3 DMD S-rank no damage run with an analytical commentary in the vein of Matthewmatosis, I guess I'll have to do it
You can criticize Drew Coombs' voice acting in DMC1 all you like, but you have to admit that he put more emotion into his performance than a lot of people did at that time.
"I should've been to fill your dark soul with LIIIGHT!"
sounds like dmc4 dante if he was a smoker tbh i think drew was better as an older dante
Gervais PARKOO
Soul = Vag
Light = Semen
He's my favorite voice actor for Dante, wish Capcom would've kept him around.
@@gervaisparkoo3354 omg i forgot about that line until now. Lmao
The start of his never shutting the hell up about DMC phase.
The story goes that Capcom hadn't been expecting DMC1 to sell (like, at all), were surprised by the success and wanted a sequel chop-chop, so grabbed a random third-person action game they had in development and told the devs to stick Dante in it. DMC2 was originally a Tomb Raider knockoff starring Lucia, hence the emphasis on gun combat.
CruelestChris It all makes sense now! The funny thing is, is that I never even played DMC2 as a kid. I loved 1 loads but one day we saw DMC3 at the shop so we decided to get it. My dad must have never shown me 2 because it was on one of my memory cards and I found a copied disc version in the attic.
+Demon Rantz You've got a great dad.
Syrus7sk Thanks :) I still want to play 2 though to see how bad it truly was.
+Demon Rantz May Gos be with you through that journey.
***** Praise Gos.
Regarding the "things that would have made sense in the Japanese version" comment, you might be surprised to know that the Devil May Cry series was always voiced in English, even in Japan. Capcom had a thing for that; Resident Evil/Biohazard was also voiced in English. They just put Japanese subtitles in so non-English-speakers could understand.
That might sound a bit weird, but more Japanese folks have a working knowledge of English than native English-speakers have a working knowledge of Japanese. DMC didn't get Japanese voice actors until the twelve-episode anime, and the first game in the series to have Japanese acting, I believe, is DMC4: Special Edition.
The scene with Dante and Agnus doing the stage acting thing is actually making fun of the way Agnus acts so melodramatic and theatrical in every scene he's in. Pay attention to the way he moves and talks, he always acts like he's an actor on stage. Dante just rips into him for it... and Agnus plays along. Ha!
+The One True Nobody! Is sanity...the price to pay...for power!?
Same happened with God Hand as well.
Anecdote evidence is not evidence
Hey Lewis!
Good to see you here lewis, when DMC3 Will show up in The BSC?
Dante should open a bakery called "Devil Make Rye"
This is such a bad joke.......well done haha
If you go to Reddit sub DevilMayCry, I just posted your joke giving you credit random youtube viewer
Or “devil bake cry”
Late asf but I would’ve said devil may pie
Not Devil make pie?
Love how when you discuss "rewarding good skill" you show a shot of someone attacking a shadow with a melee weapon x3
It was his first time and to be honest I pretty much did the same thing, at least on the first one.
Say what you want about the script, DMC1's story falls into "so bad it's good" territory for me. Call it a guilty pleasure, but the awful corniness can make me smile even today.
Glad they improved it.
+Freedan
I feel the same way. :)
DANTE IS A TURTLE
@@stinkfinga4918 nah DMC 3 Dante is a top tier character
@@stinkfinga4918 pretty sure you just played the first 2 games and the reboot then, cause he’s straight up great in 3, 4, and 5. Even people who don’t like DMC cause they prefer something like Bayo instead agree on that lmao
Coming back to this video it's weird realizing you hadn't been playing this series your whole life
DMC4 seems short because it is. It's original allowed production time was cut.
+bluhmer1990 Yeah, this is completely untrue. DMC4 was in development for about three years. Development started in 2005, right after they finished DMC3.
Potidaon It's original production time got cut in half. That is a fact.
*****
Then provide a source.
+Potidaon its was still rushed
jaquan541 It was in development for almost three years. Development started just after development on DMC3 finished. If you want a source, check the 3142 art book. So, please explain, using a source, how DMC4 was rushed.
During the development of DmC, Alex Jones, the Capcom co-producer of the new DmC had the pleasure to tell us that he liked DMC2. That really makes you want to trust him now does it?
Wow, really?!? Can you point out the interview/article where Jones said it, I'm curious.
MegaNerd Zero
Ah, thanks!
But, he said it was fine, not that he liked it. Personally, I thought his statement came off as "Developer Courtesy" from his relationship with DMC staff, opposed to genuinely liking it.
Eh, I can understand it being interpreted either way.
I've seen fans defend DMC2. Hell, I've seen a multi-part vid defending DMC2 when the comparisons with DmC rolled around.
DantesLink
Thanks Zero for the link! ^_^ Regardless, it's probably not something Alex should have said considering he had hundreds of pissed off DMC fans to convince that he was doing a good job at the time. It just proves this game had the worst PR work ever.
I remember when DMC2 came out. I tried to comvince myself it was alright but even the young naive fan I was couldn't do that. ( :
MegaPhilX True, some sensitivity on the subject was needed. ;)
Looking back, it feels like even if developers did everything right in the PR department, it would of just equated to a band-aid on a bullet wound from the sheer amount of fall-out from the announcement trailer.
MegaNerd Zero I honestly think the biggest offense was the godawful boss designs. I mean, zombie helicopter is pretty much all I have to mention to explain why the game was so awful to me.
"Devil may Cry never made it into the Resident Evil because it had too much action to be considered a part of the franchise" hahaha that cracked me up.
What's really nuts is that the director of DMC2 and 3 is the same guy.
He must've REALLY done his homework inbetween games.
+Andy Actually, Itsuno (the director of DMC2, 3 and 4) only took over as director of DMC2 late in development after the original director quit.
He's an extremely talented developer, having worked on the Street Fighter Alpha series and CvS1, co-directed Rival Schools and Power Stone, and directed Star Gladiator, Power Stone 2, Project Justice, CvS2, One Piece Mansion and Auto Modellista before he started working on DMC2. So it's probably safe to say he is not to blame for DMC2 being as bad as it was.
+Potidaon Also Kamiya was glad Itsuno became director of the game, he hoped he could save the game from being complete crap.
how is such a thing even possible?
I didn't like 3 that much but I dislike 2. How one can even like 2, I do not know...
There wasn't a dmc2. The hell are you on about?
GamingBrit wasn't born a Devil May Cry fan? Wild
DmC: Devil May Cry development:
Capcom exec 1: "Hey Johnson, you know how we have this loveable, fan-favorite character, Dante?"
Capcom exec 2: "Why yes, of course, Harrison."
Capcom exec 1: "Let's fuck him up!"
Capcom exec 2: "....You, sir, deserve a promotion!"
+Silver Fang
GODDAMNIT HARRISON!
xD
A FUCKING MEN
DMC 1, 3 and 4 are the best, 2 desn't exist and the reboot is a fucking boot in the franchises balls
According to some sources, DMC 4 is only 45% complete.
Lucas Flocco it's a shame, because DMC 4 had an amazing combat system that had so much depth, and I was excited for the next game (to see more but in a complete game) until I saw DMC: devil may cry, and I knew that the perfect DMC game will not come...
Lucas Flocco Is that why you have to fight every both again another time?
@@dkkr7526 hmyes?
I’M SO FUCKING HYPED FOR DMC 5
What sources?
I didn't play until the HD trilogy came out, and boy, I consider picking it up as one of the best gaming choices I have ever made. I LOVE THESE GAMES.
Would you recommend it then? I'm having so much fun on DMC4 :)
Akatsubasa without a doubt
***** Did it aged well?
Akatsubasa I think so but I'm from the old school so graphics don't mean a lot to me
***** Actually I meant the overall experience but looks like it's fine. I'll probably buy it ;)
The ending though.
Anyway, I hope they learn from DMC4 and make this rumored DMC5 as great as 3 and as progressed as 4, but 10x better.
+Galdr Sadly if by rumors you mean that photo in which the actors of Dante and Nero wear mocap equipment that was possibly just for the new pachinko slot machine called Devil May Cry X Last Judgement.
TheAfallon No, it was another kind of rumor. I should probably find and link it where I found it. But it might be what you said, which would be pretty disappointing. I had read it [the rumor] last year on a site, after they released the SE for 4, if I'm not mistaken. I think I'll go find it and post again.
Edit: Yeah, I found where I was reading it.
attackofthefanboy.com/news/rumor-devil-may-cry-5-teased-in-dmc-4-special-edition/
I wasn't going to trust this until it was confirmed by Capcom, but ehh.
Capcom recently gave a vague answer regarding DMC5. They didn't confirm or deny it is being made. THERE IS STILL HOPE!
Yeah. I hope they have been working on it since last year. I would rather they work on it and flesh it out to be the game that it _deserves_ to be rather than, pardon my language, half-ass it. There should be no DLCs unless it's for maybe some add-ons to make the game better, rather than "this extra side story will tell another story!" sort of content. Everything, story-wise, should be obtainable/included in the full game; this way, the consumers won't feel cheated out of their money.
tl;dr version: I just want this to be a complete game and don't want this DMC5 to be like Sonic 06 (unfinished/rushed to meet deadline, etc.)
***** agreed. I want Dark Souls-Esque DLC. Hell, even DmC did it right with Vergil's downfall.
ik this vid is 2 years old but i just stumbled on it and it put a huge smile on my face, i really enjoy the personality you put into your views on a game.
The subtle witty humor is just fantastic.
+Jim DarkMagic 14:33 "Well, I'm sure nothing will go wrong today, then." (-Dante- Mysterious Assassin shoots pope)
XD
"subtle"
"witty"
Japan hard = Western Normal????!?!?!? They pulled a reverse Megaman 2. Well done Capcom. Well done
More like they pulled a Rocket Knight Adventures.
I think of it as pulling a Resident Evil. The US Normal mode is usually Japan's Hard (or "Advanced") mode.
MM2 while a good example gives you the option between Normal (actually a new Easy mode) and Difficult (Japan's difficulty).
That sort of thing actually isn't uncommon at all, especially in the past.
The West got the harder versions of BattleToads, Rocket Knight Adventures, Castlevania III, Ninja Gaiden III: The Ancient Ship of Doom, Contra Hard Corps, Dynamite Headdy, Streets of Rage 3, Resident Evil, and Donkey Kong Country.
Also, Devil May Cry 3 isn't the only game in the series with regional difficulty differences. The original Devil May Cry in the West has you dealing only 80% damage and taking an additional 20% damage from enemies on all modes. These differences are not present in the HD Collection. Might also be worth noting that the original's somewhat stupid control scheme was only present in the west iirc.
Infested Chopper the greatest boss fight In DMC history.
Said no one ever.
"Dante has of course to stop the demons entering the world and super pope piloting a giant statue" Is a great way to explain the story lmao
DMC3 ROCKS!!!!!
Hell yes it does, just finished it again last night
I don't feel the video made DMC3 justice - the environment was one of the best in the series, you can coop a boss, the addition of vergil and blood palace ..
DMC4 wasn't finished. Capcom rushed it out, which is why it has less content than previous titles.
Oh capcom. How I hate you.
Hopefully DMC4's Remaster will have that missing content added to it :D
While it was incomplete, it sold better then any DMC has ever sold, even surpassed DMC3.
*****
I'm not the one who's looking for other's mistake, bitch ass nigga.
+Dark Fire DMC 4 got rushed but not because of DmC
they were not working on DmC for 5 years
Strange, because the game doesn't really feel... "unfinished". It feels like the backtracking was decided on pretty early on during development. We get all the new cutscenes n shit after all and those can't be made during one weekend.
For what it's worth it's the most polished unfinished game of all time. :P
actually brit fyi, DMC4 funding got cut hence the 'not finishing the game' criticism
Really. Gonna need a source for that nigga.
STRING3R You could literally Google "DMC4 funding" and get thousands of sources in .3 seconds.
Victor Viridian i searched this quotes and all and got 7 results in .24 seconds
+STRING3R dumbass
Not quite. That one was a pretty good joke :P preety. And his computer/network was probably faster (back then at least).
DMC1 gets a lot better when you start digging into the scoring system and higher difficulty levels, which completely retool the game. Guns and your devil trigger become vital parts of your arsenal and learning how to keep that combo going by carefully controlling your and every enemy's placement feels amazing.
9:30 Oh my god! The nightmares!
I lost my shit laughing at this bit.
...and the reboot came...seriously capcom you had so many possiblities like I dont know!:
-explain and develop NERO and his connection with Vergil
-combine the awesome combat and moveset from dmc 3
-the style system in dmc4 + eventually improving the gamplay of nero
-the awesome graphism and soundtrack and not this...thing in DmC
-the dark atmosphere from dmc1
-or a prequel talking about sparda
-and eventually allowing lady to join into the fight (with a comback of trish as a playable character...
BUT NO lets act like TWATS and give the franchise to a C rank company with barely 2 game Under their belt...not even to mention how the story of those games wasnt completly written by themselves and they had to ask the help of some other people..
Well I cannot blame him for thinking that even tough I understand what you mean Virgil, I mean after having a dev saying so just "like that" in a game that barely talks about the character origins and a book insinuating things rather than say it, no wonder people don't know what to thing anymore...
So here is my speculation on what could have happen:
1) it's actually true and they planned it but screw up with the timeline ,just like they did with resident evil ( Wesker obtained his powers around the year 1999 if I am not mistaken so its impossible for Jake to have more than 14 years old since resident evil 6 took place in 2013...*unless he was born way before and got injected something by wesker)...
2) They didn't planed what they were doing and were flipfloping on the issue,that could be true considering that slash crapcom did on the budget and the time require for the development...
3) its not true but they wanted the raise contreversie and debate regarding that subject....
Sorry if my English is bad XD
Yeah thats true :)
Mr Josef I have had my share of speculations as to Nero's connection with Vergil. I heard they're developing a DMC 5 which goes back to the original storyline and not the shit reboot DmC. Maybe we can hope for some explanation there as well as some character building in Nero's part/
who knows maybe dmc4 SE might have the answers to our question
Just finished the first game. Had a lot of fun with it. Then realised I got pretty much all c and d ranks.. that hurt, but didn’t make me sad. It just encourages me to get better at the game which is something rare, when I finish a game I’m mostly content but I think I’ll keep at this one. Maybe some day I’ll be consistent enough to get a s rank on a mission lol.
Man, 8 years was a long time ago. At least we can appreciate Nero now.
Especially in 5. Boy gets his dues in 5.
The video that started it all
Devil May Cry: 4.5/5 (Amazing)
Devil May Cry 2: 2/5 (Bad)
Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening: 5/5 (Awesome)
Devil May Cry 4: 4/5 (Great)
DMC 4: 5/5
rmhanzel Dmc2 was fucking terrible. I actually gave the piece of shit a chance before judging it like other people and no matter how hard I tried to like it....it just fucking sucked. They had a few good elements integrated for sure but they took the cheap and lazy route to make a quick buck. Its funny because it looks like it'd be the first game release in the entire franchise from its shittier graphics and movement system. Don't even get me started on the awful combat, somehow it was worse than dmc1 in that area. I couldn't even finish the thing that's how stupid it was to me. I did like the DT customization that was definitely nice and the Majin form was pretty cool too actually. This game is just you shooting shitty enemies the entire game. I honestly wish they could go back and revamp everything and change some of the story along with the awful system to make it a worthy successor to 1 but it'll never happen and I'd rather see 5 anyway
DMC: 3/5
DMC2: 2/5
DMC3: 4.5/5
DMC4: 5/5
DmC: 3/5
I haven't played any DMC Games, but with 5 coming out, I might play them if I can get my hands on them. So from this video, here's impressions I'm getting from each :
DMC 1: Dated, but still holds up fairly well
DMC 2: Probably should skip it....
DMC 3: Seems like the best.
DMC 4: Seems worth a shot.
Are there any disagreements or suggestions?
If you can get over the outdated gameplay of 1 then play it but I just started with 3 and watched the cutscenes from 1
1:48 thats not lady. thats trish you silly goober
The only thing I can think of that could've made DMC3's opening cutscene better is if, at the end, Dante said something along the lines of "Sorry about earlier."
Lugbzurg Wouldn't it be later, chronologically?
+D MAS Dante can't know how good a game he is in, anyway. So it doesn't matter... However still it would've confused many people, including me - and could easily be taken out of context - something more thought-out, like a hint of DMC2 and then the line would have done the trick. Again, it would be rather unethical to have a pejorative innuendo towards the development team...
Ok, looking back at all this, and how I've seen people declare that DMC3 was essentially an "apology" for DMC2, it's interesting to note that the very first thing out of Dante's mouth is simply the word "Sorry". I wonder if that was intentional.
The irony is that Dante's temporary persona was Tony Redgrave
So glad you acknowledged that the platforming in 1 is utter, utter, UTTER crap. I just hate it so much. 3 is AWESOME, naturally. I lost interest in 1 half way, lost interest in 2 almost instantly but 3 kept it and continues to even after I've beaten the damn thing. Great review!
The thing with the recurring bosses in DMC1 was that
a) you always fought them in a different "arena"
b) they always used at least one new trick or attack
At least DMC2 introduced bloody palace mode and level select so that I dont have to worry about having to read a stupid collectibles guide and I can just focus on the game.
Am i the only one who *liked* the backtracking from DMC 4? Aside for the lvl 19 ofc.
Fighting the same bosses as Dante felt vastly different than doing that as Nero and gave us the opportunity to approach the bosses with both characters. In fact i was a bit dissapointed when i realized that the only way to fight Credo as Dante was to go through ~80lvl of Blood Palace.
Can't say I enjoyed the backtracking, mainly cause I didn't enjoy going through the levels the first time as Nero. Now, the combat is fantastic, needless to say, it's just that I felt like I was running through endless hallways most of the time before I could get to fight enemies.I don't mind the long walks every once in a while, but in 4 I felt they overdid it.
Aladelicous Well, that's not really a backtracking thing then, is it? More of a problem with level design itself.
Xqwzts Eh, the backtracking doesn't help. But yeah, the level design is the main culprit. I don't mind backtracking in plenty of other games.
***** That coming from a guy named "Aryan Soviet"? :D
***** Emmm, i didn't? You can actually check who gives thumb-ups under the comments mate. Sure, you propably need to finish pre-school education first but you'll get there eventually.
Seeing Charlie at this point not being great at DMC 4 gets me MOTIVATED to improve.
Happy to see someone noticed.
I feel old as shit because I still watch this 2012 video regularly
i love going back to see Brit's thoughts then to now!
I remember I never beat Dmc 2, because I got lost and didn't know where to go.
I like to show these video to friends just to e them understand how the process of entering DMC is so goddamn good. And then the wait becomes unbearable
The wildest thing about this video being 10 years old is that he has the exact same voice today
It's really weird now that this wasn't the first video on this channel considering it's relevance now.
this video got me into Devil May Cry - thank you
GamingBrit, this is some of your best work ive seen yet, you have just basically recited to me why I love this series and why I personally think it is the best set of action games ever. Thanks gamingbrit, you made my morning!
I'm still watching this whenever I restart the series
We have come full circle
“When you know what you do in devil may cry” *proceeds to attack shadow with a sword*
Capcom should sell DMC to Platinum Games, so that way DMC5 is in good hands and they don't make any more shitty titles like DmC.
the reason DmC was made was because capcom didn't really want to make anymore devil may cry games
theXtreme1man Exactly why Platinum Games should inherit the rights to the franchise.
eh. they can do whatever they please at this point
DUDE, I've been saying this for a while now! I'm glad someone agrees with me, and weirdly enough they COULD do it now! I don't know if people have been watching the Capcom news but they're in serious financial trouble, and might have to sell some IPs.
So yeah I know what you mean, someone should make like, a petition or a letter to them maybe I dunno.. Either way someone needs to take Capcom's good IPs away from them seeing as they have no idea how to treat them.
EntityDJI Jonah Drake
Eh...I think Nintendo should just buy Platinum Games,Sega,and Capcom,then they can give DMC to Platinum Games,and have Capcom focus on Monster Hunter and Street Fighter.
I laughed so hard during your review of 3...you know, every time you kept dying. XD That's me currently, on Hard Mode. And I agree; 2 is pretty terrible. But, that's because they had to do a rush job, and didn't have the financing (not to mention they switched from Hideki Kamiya to Hideaki Itsuno without giving him any time to get acquainted with the story, and such). He did well with 3 and 4, at least. ^^; 4 is my favourite (it's pretty damn close between it and 3). I do understand everyone's agitation at having to go through all the same levels with Dante that we do with Nero. Despite that, I still love it. However, I won't touch the reboot with a fifty-foot pole, never mind a ten-foot one. :/ I loved your review of that one, as well. I cracked up so hard.
What I loved about devil may cry is your progress as a player and if dmc 1 is your first dmc you get a more streamlined progression of your skills along with the game and future ones. Facing the spider boss the first time and dying over and over and then going and buying streak and just barely winning.. then coming back for another playthru after playing all the games and then annihilating that same spider boss that gave you problems before is now a cakewalk and it's all because you as a player improved your skills the game didn't level you up or increase your strength for you and that's s rare feeling in video games
"I JUST WANTED TO FILL YOUR SOUL WITH LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT" -Dante
I miss the Dante of DMC1, Itsuno deserves praise for putting the series “back on track” after 2 but I’ve been playing them all for the first time and the jump from 1 Dante to 3 Dante is absurd. I thought it was because he was young but it didn’t change after that. The presentation is also much different in what I’d call a lateral movement. Not what I was expecting after the amazing time I had in 1
This review is pretty dated (bad), id love to see this redone today 8 years later
that joke never gets old - 8:39
Every few weeks I always catch myself binging on GB's videos. Always entertaining and great to listen to.
That's a decade of DMC right there
9:30 Imagine an Apache losing to a pair of pistols.
I appreciate that the developers were at least trying to bring something new to the combat with Nero, but as a character, I can't say there's anything wrong with him, but that's about all I can say, he's just "meh", nothing to make him unlikable or annoying, but no personality traits to make him memorable.
The thing is, DMC4 is not bad it's actually pretty good, but feels it's lackin, we have this great gameplay mechanics but not much time and stages to use it; you can see how this game was probably really rushed in gameplay (Nero have little combo variety), in types of enemies, in the plot (they don't even say a fucking word about how Nero got his devil arm), and also in levels, I mean fuck, Dante doesn't even have levels of his own it's pretty much all Nero's levels backwards, I'm 100% someone upstairs made they just rush the fuck out of the game
What I think would have worked best with regards levels and using characters is that the game should have let the player use both Dante and Nero from the start like with X and Zero in X4 and 5, let them pick and choose who they want make the transition easier people not used to the traditional gameplay Dante brings.
They didn't have to rush it out but half way through development the funding got pulled.
I hate Nero personally, but I loved how he was this angsty kid whining about his girlfriend for half the game and then suddenly Uncle Dante completely hijacked the plot with his silliness.
6 years later
Holy shit I love Nero now.
I can tell the name change at the end of the first DMC was retconned
Every DMC fan could tell you what to do, so just make DMC 5 already, will ya Capcom?!
Dreams come true
Oyhhhhhbboy
Dmc1 will always be special because it holds something no othe dmc game does. And Thats resident evil atmosphere wich is one of the best if not the best atmosphere there is in a gaming franchise.
7:34 DMC2 is so awful when you try and start a new game it shoots itself...
I'm commenting because there are 999 comments and I have ocd.
Ha, I'm taking that away from you.
To be fair 4 isn't bad they just got alot of e money to make it cut at something like half way through the development of the game. Thanks Capcom for screwing your fans any way you can.
I've seen your DMC reviews countless times and always watching them when I have nothing else to watch. Damn I like them so much I would even enjoy remakes of the reviews because it's so well made, telling the truth about my most fav game and give me all the nostalgic feelings.
Keep going with the awesome reviews!
I'm doing the same ^^ I like those videos, this guy knows how to entertain and convince a public
That's actually kind of sweet. Honestly Devil May Cry, like the original game it amazes me how well it's aged and I think that's thanks to just how damn well the combat flows (and the awesome level design in the castle). Same goes for Devil May Cry 3, it's a non stop rollercoaster.
DMC 4 Special edition... it has to be an entire different video
+Isarrot it already is.......kinda
DMC3: "for Jesus's balls".
Pretty excellent, one ends excited.
The DmC end: I laughed my ass so hard
You have to admit, Magmoor Caverns have good music.
Thank God I played Dante's Awakening as a kid when I had peak reflexes. As an adult I wouldn't have the skill or patience to constantly play the entire level over after dying to a boss at the end. Glad they fixed that in the SE. Greatest action series of all time.
Ya'know someone's a casual ehen they die to the flying centipede demon lol
About to replay the series looks like it's time to hype up with this video again
Damn you really used to hate the series lmao, calling the story in 3 and 4 bad stories and somehow making even me not feel like playing DMC rn. Especially knowing how you eventually became a super fan for 4 and now 5
Dmc 4 made sense as far as dante fighting the same bosses. Nero wasn't powerful enough to destroy the demons, he was only able to best them and progress past them while dante was powerful enough to destroy them and close the hell gates.
I don't know! After playing DMC3 and 4 on turbo the entire time, dmc 1 feels so very very slow.
+Noble “Dedicated Dark” Alfred Yeah, even DMC2 is faster-paced.
D MAS DMC1 is still better, better than 4 too.
DMC 1 Is supposed to be resident evil 4. No shit the combat will be stiff.
The most annoying thing for me in dmc1 is Shadow and nightmare 3. The shadow are the most annoying enemies in the game. They have mostly undodge able attacks in the game. They show up early in the game and create a difficulty spike with their spear attacks. They're mostly unbeatable when their in a group.
So you didn't do the secret missions? Two of them had you fighting multiple shadows- I also approached a despondent catatonic state trying to kill them. It was an absolute shit. Nightmare was just that- a nightmare. Ugh. I wish the environments had been more interactive: some doors part of the scenery could be accessed. Loved 1, it was ace and wish they had done more with 4 and 2 well, we do not speak of it.
Git gud faget.
You know what's funny?Shadow is actually one of the easiest enemies lol
Blades and Frosts much more annoying than Shadows
I never understood why people say Nightmare 3 is hard, the only hard thing in the fight for me is his final form.
The Style system in DMC4 is pretty cool, but what if he had more styles than just four? And you could customize which four styles you used out of the styles you get, that would be pretty cool and would allow for people to play the game and go through it in their own unique way.
I love that idea...wish there was someone in capcom that would say *hey guys dont worry the original franchise isnt dead*
mamad dial They have.
DantesLink yeah well they said that the original dante will comeback in one way or another wich is pretty ambiguous if you ask...I just hope this is a dmc5 (the real thing)
With the trademark renewal and DMC4 director still very much interested, there is a chance!
DantesLink I hope too...
CAPCOM PLEASE STOP SCREWING AROUND FOR ONCE PLEASE...I promise you that if you release the dmc5 trailer...
people will scream ALL HAIL CAPCOM...
I enjoy the fact that when you praise something, it actually holds a lot weight from bashing other things so much. Very entertaining video, wonder how the eventual DmC review will go.
i was so young playing the first dmc that i used to be scared of the enemies ahaha so i would rush to kill enemies ahha
*"Menacing nearby Oxygen"* I'm dead
Why is your Devil May Cry 3 audio desyncing?
Rewatched this as your new DmC review is out. This video is still absolutely brilliant.
Wait so I was playing on hard mode on dmc3 the whole time?! I wonder how did i survive all those difficult bosses.
+Mykel Bertulano By getting good at the game
+Mykel Bertulano The Japanese were underestimating the west.
J.A.D. Or...overestimating, since people said it was so damn hard?
*shotgun downs 50 demons* need help dante *pulls out 556 Commando and caps 15 more*
Backtracking can be great. It was in DMC1.
Just discovered this channel. Excellent stuff.
Also, i think DMC2 sucked on purpose. Great marketing for someone thinking about the 3rd games release before it even started.
For instance, when i was a kid, i would always do really well on my report card for the 1 semester or whatever. Then, i would completely SLACK on the 2nd report card, KNOWING i would gt in trouble, but i was thinking about how my rewards would be so much on the 3rd report card because i thinking ahead. And it always worked, i would purposely fluctuate my grades so i could get what i wanted as long as i played it right
One of his best retrospectives
The only good thing that came out of dmc2 was the limited run diesel jacket I bought. Its so frikking awesome and unique. I feel like dante in it......the dmc2 dante 😩
I'm gonna play it just for Dante
The HD remasters dont give off that classic vibe of having dat low resolution, edge infested graphics of a good ol PS2 :3
Agreed...that's why when I play my PS2, I make sure it's on a TV from the times that the PS2 was around....like a Panasonic 32 inch TV....
Quesant Yeah lolol the jagged edges of the character models
Dafuq kind of nostalgic analogy is this?
I disagree. I really love the HD Collections on PS3. They really feel like enhanced PS2 games. Trust me, I understand where you're coming from and perhaps I'd stick with playing on PS2 if I had a standard definition TV, but I don't and they're tough to come by and insanely heavy. I still get nostalgic from playing something like the HD Collections, FF XII: Zodiac Age, or the PS2 games on PS4. Probably because PS2 era games are unique, creative, and awesome, generally speaking. Hell of a lot better than the 2 console generations we've had since, that's for sure.
the thing is, back in the days of non-flat TVs, games were made with certain properties of the displaying technology in mind. when you transfer it to digital, the game needs to be cleaned up and additional effects updated. So both versions end up ''fine'' (given the remaster wasn't a con job) - but there is a difference.
I prefer to play it on my PS2 on an old TV, and for everyone who would like to try it out, make sure the TV doesn't flicker, or change brightness randomly (it can cause headaches and/or strain your eyes badly).
I haven’t even played other dmcs (yet), but nearly platinumed the first one and oooh boy it’s so fucking good
12:34 Shawn Michaels? Lmao
DMC4 didn't suffer from lack of ideas, it suffered from lack of production time. Originally, Dante's path was gonna be a track through hell, where he would fight Pandora, Gilgamesh, and Lucifer, which is why his weapons have those names. But, deadline approached, and they ended up having to recycle all the shit they had just to finish the game.
Shame really, sounded like a cool idea.
That sounds really amazing. Just imagining bosses with those names gives me some cool images.
The audio in the Dante's Office scene in DMC3 is out of sync, and yes, it's infinitely infuriating.
the devil may cry series seems to excel heavily in a certain thing in each game
DMC1 has one of the best atmospheres in any game i've seen,
DMC2 is simply put one the most infamous ways on how not to make a sequal
3 has some of the best gameplay in any game, and is one of the hardest games ever
4 has some of the best graphics ever and dont seem to age at all
