James Merrett of Game Muse writes "I don’t think I have ever seen the amount of hate that the new DMC game has been receiving because of the change of appearance in a single character in my full sixteen years of gaming"
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."
Me leaving it out should be telling of my thoughts on it. Better than 2 as a DMC game.
Still a good game though.
3,1,4,5 to me, never played 2. 5 gameplay is amazing but level design was really disappointing to me, just a bunch of plain arenas, the story felt like a worse written rehash of the 3rd and the charater models looked weird ( specially the ladies ). Another problem with 5 was that there was not enough content for 3 charaters so I could never really familiarize with any of them
2.
Dmc.

God DMC2 was an awful game.
And in case this isn't obvious it goes worst to best
Order changes depending on your focus. I tend to focus on gameplay/fun factor, so...
5, 3, 1, 4, 2.
I really didn't like 4 but commend Dante's weapon diversity. The retreading of old ground was pretty unacceptable to me.
But even then... Still more enjoyable than 2 for me
Two Devil May Cry games have been delisted on Steam. As shared on X, formerly Twitter, by Wario64, Devil May Cry 3 Special Edition and Devil May Cry 4 are no longer available to purchase.
Bless the adorably all digital future! When it comes to PC games its not as big of an issue because there should always be another way to access single player games, but still, I hate to see anything get delisted.
Well, DMC4 special edition has a lot of issues to run from Steam.
I have to get a modded executable to even be able to run the game on Windows 10.
Not sure if it is because the game runs in DirectX10 or what, but it sucks they have not even tried to fix it.
DMC4 Special Edition is not delisted, it was just the standard version, it has nothing to do with issues of performance or anything alike. Its just that Capcom probably do not want to sell the standard version, neither the standalone DMC3 version.
It's game time!, or is it hacking and slashing time? Doesn't matter! Enjoy the best hack and slash games on the Xbox 360
Ninja Gaiden 2 was never multiplat. NG Sigma 2 is a remixed game not the same game at all
Dante's inferno... such a great GoW inspired game. So sad the sequel was canned, it sounded like it was going to be even more epic than the first.
Yeap, classic GoW is still better mechanically. But the aesthetics and atmosphere of Dante's Inferno were just top-notch. Shame it never got a PC port, but at the very least is available on modern Xbox.
I just can’t get into the devil may cry series. In my opinion you never feel powerful in those games. The guns are pointless as they only serve to be a flashy part of a combo. DMC was the only one that I could tolerate long enough to beat.
Anyone who starts off their DmC article and/or review with "I don’t think I have ever seen the amount of hate that the new DMC game has been receiving because of the change of appearance in a single character in my full sixteen years of gaming" or any derivation of that, making the assumption that the problem is and has always only been Donte's appearance, instantly loses all credibility and is moved to the idiot pile of journalists. Don't bother clicking on this stupid story.
@MmaFan-Qc we all know DMC 3 was made by the same people that made DMC2 and it was hated on as well for being a downgrade, which is what this game is, but you have to understand im not hating just to hate or just because his hair is black thats a stupid reason not to buy a game but if a game is a complete downgrade from the past, and the company trash talks the FANS, the original creators, and the characters (Dante, Trish, Nero), and even trolls the original fanbase the ones that bought the DMC games and got it to where it is today then how does that company deserve money, you give me legit reasons for why i should buy the game over Bayonetta,MGR Revengeance(both of which were made by the original DMC creators) and God of War, because no one is crying, im just stating facts, that cannot be denied, NT try to pass the game off as something revolutionary and original, most of the weapons are uninspired knockoffs from other games or just plain boring, if i were to hate a game just because the character looks a little different then i wouldnt have bought and loved prince of persia 2008, and i wouldnt be so hyped for sly 4 or even the new tomb raider.
