I played DMC4 and I wanted to say that your vid is great; a lot of people think that action games are about turning your brain off and spamming buttons untill someone dies, and you trying to ”dissmiss” that idea is great because well you have a ton of depth in those games. If you want to see some really high level gameplay of DMC then you can show them Dongurii, it almost feels like Dante could fly in DMC4
Everyone says dmc4 is incomplete. I mean. Its got problems, but it is the complete package when it comes to combat. It is basically the perfect combat experience, or it was til dmc5. There are things that are better about dmc4. Dante is deep. And the skill required to play him properly in 4 is well above that of 5 imo.
Very few games have combat that flows the same way DMC5 does. Most combat systems either feel either kind of stiff and repetitive or just kind of simple and lets the difficulty do the heavy lifting. DMC5 has so much variety in how you can play, while also having insane and memorable boss fights, and still not make it feel overwhelming to the player. Not to mention how fun the characters and dialogue are, and how their personalities are reflected in the gameplay, which isn't something you see often.
To me combat with V is meh, with Nero is ok but with Dante.....maaan I was having so much fun. Next playthrough is with Vergil, had a hard time in his boss fight but shit was so 🔥
Yeah, V is probably (by a small margin) my least favorite of the three, but I still like his style. Nero gets a lot of points from me for having a grappling hook, which I friggin' love. Dante takes a while to learn, so the fact that you don't get to play him until almost halfway through the game kinda hurts, but that'll probably change on a second playthrough.
I think the series would receive a on of love if they just fully implemented co op. I mean seriously that would breathe a ton of life into the game. Running through the story with your friends creating combos would go so crazy. And I mean for every mission not 1 like in the base game. Come on that's so lame. Also make the bloody palace co op. Just dont give us the rewards since it would be easy. I mean seriously that's the BIGGEST missed opportunity in the game. You can make souls games where you give the bosses more health and more damage in co op. That and 2 other things. 1. Allowing us to play any character for any mission. I mean seriously replaying the same exact missions every time is pretty lame. Using dante in the early missions look like a ton of fun. Especially since they turned off the battle music in most of dante's missions when they could've just given the option to turn it on or off. 2. Give us more costumes. This is one fo the best looking games I've ever seen and it's the 5th in the franchise but no costumes? That's ridiculous. Even give us devil trigger costumes too. It would be really great. I have other ideas but this comment is too long but if we can really start a movement for the co op that would be great 😊
Yeah, I'm not big on co-op, but it'd definitely be popular if they put it in. It feels like most games incorporate some form of co-op these days; it's a little strange that DMC doesn't.
@decibelmax exactly. And the way it is in dmc5 as is tells me that they had the idea but it was scrapped. Cus in mission 13 and 7 you can fight alongside someone online. And let me tell u. It's super fun when both players know the characters. But doing a couch bloody palace would be so cool

I'll probably play DMC 4 at some point, I keep hearing good things about it.

just noticed that dmc5 is if scooby doo and breaking bad had a metal head baby
Once you see it, you can't unsee it.
You deserve way more subs! Nice review.
Thanks! I appreciate it.

main dev of DMC left capcom
Ah crud. They better not try to reboot it again with him gone : (
I think he was the combat designer in both dmc and DD 1&2
No dmc 6 i guess🥲

Why play some other games when you already own DMC5?
