Thoughts of a Devil May Cry Fan

MTB: I’m not sure if this affects everyone, but have you ever had a friendship that was so amazing that you felt that it was destined to happen? It’s as if you guys were meant to be friends forever, like Double Dragon status. Then all things change. Whether it’s the times, priorities, or distance, the friendship isn’t what it used to be or it just flat-out ends. That’s what I feel about the new DmC.

of course, one is a video game and the other is a living human being.

Kran4133d ago (Edited 4133d ago )

Of course one can scream, rant and shout which will have no use whatsoever (because the game is already made and it'd be too late to change anything anyway even if NT cared) and the other can't.

No offence to the DMC fan but they might as well stop giving this game so much attention, because by the looks of things, NT won't change the game. It's like a petition. How many VG petitions have actually worked in the world? Probably very few. And probably even those petitions are such as "We want this game (timesplitters 4)" rather than "we don't want this game".

EDIT: GASP. Disagrees. I totally didn't see those coming :/

RyuX194133d ago (Edited 4133d ago )

It's not about wanting NT to change the game. The game is exactly what most people expected. What fans are doing is continuously expressing their distaste for this game. To show Capcom that what they did was wrong and to show the people that this could happen to you someday with a franchise that you love.

EDIT:

This article is a downer. I understand where he is coming from with his viewpoint, but it seems like he feels the game is okay because it's easier and more streamlined and that he is too old to be learning all the intricacies of the past games, but there are many players, including me, who are still young and still love the old franchise and did not experience the franchise like he did.

This New Dante will never be what Old Dante was to me.

Elda4133d ago

I enjoyed all DMC even though DMC 4 was a little boring but I'm not bitter,complaing or hating on the new DmC,I welcome this game as if I were just meeting a new friend.I enjoyed the demo & I'm quite sure I will enjoy the game,I'm looking forward to starting the new year with a good hack & slash game,Feb-MGSR & then Mar-GOW:A 2013 is starting out right for games!!

Omnislash4133d ago

Solution: DO NOT BUY THIS GAME.

Buy something else.
DmC is like Street Fighter the movie with Jean Claude Van Damme, a complete bastardization of the franchise.

wishingW3L4133d ago

now, when's that Raiden game coming out?

RyuX194133d ago

I'm trying not to even think about the game.

FFXVI’s Combat Proves It's Time For Another Capcom Remake

With Final Fantasy XVI committing fully to fast-paced action gameplay, it may finally be time for a new remake series of a classic Capcom franchise: Devil May Cry. As the franchise that essentially originated the particular style of 3D action combat that the upcoming Final Fantasy is making heavy use of, Devil May Cry could very well be due for a remake, or even a series of remakes, to address certain flaws and more dated aspects of its classic games, similarly to the popular modern remakes for Capcom's Resident Evil series.

How can combat from one franchise be proof for a subjective opinion on another?

SeTTriP363d ago

Makes no sense to me either

lucian229363d ago

why in the hell would we need a remake of devil may cry when devil may cry 5 was great? We just need devil may cry 6 ; not a remake, enough with the remakes

jambola363d ago

Yeah I mean, no insult to the franchise but it's not like the story or location of the first was so top tier that we need to go back to it

lucian229362d ago

yeah rather progress with story where it is

Pepsi_Man3000363d ago

I'd much prefer we get new games that have such combat. Enough with the remakes. At least move forward if you want more of the same series

Elda363d ago

No remakes. The next installment of DMC would suffice.

CrimsonWing69363d ago

Why not a sequel? Why do we run to "needs a Remake" all the time now. I'd rather have the original and then a brand new entry instead of the original and the original but remade.

It's Time for a New Mainline Devil May Cry Game

With DMC5's four-year anniversary passing and the increased relevance of its genre, now could be the best time for a new Devil May Cry game.

They are working on Dragons Dogma 2

BISHOP-BRASIL394d ago

Never heard about it, but boy do I hope you are right! Dragon's Dogma was great!

Was a very anticlimactic announcement, but it's official!

Gridknac395d ago

I am super surprised that a total remake of the first DMC, in the vein of the latest Resident Evil titles, hasn't been revealed.

MIDGETonSTILTS17395d ago

It was at least a decade between 4 and 5, so keep holding your breath ;)

cbuc1125394d ago (Edited 394d ago )

Exactly...these games don't come out often.

Furesis394d ago

Right, surely there wasn't anything else that was the cause for that...

FallenAngel1984394d ago

DmC released between those titles. Even if it’s its own continuity it still showed Capcom was interested in the series

Capcom is banging out the RE series. I would Love a new Onimusha and Power Stone from Capcom.

thejigisup394d ago

Well sh*t while we're at it let's get a remake of MvC2. Honestly Devil May Cry was one of my favorite games and I really didn't like the tonal shift too much as the series progressed. Now would be a good time to return to DMC 1 and do a soft reboot from there keeping the tone dark. I would also be 100% down for a game based on the story of Sparda.

Fable Co-Creator Says He 'Ripped Off' Devil May Cry to Create the Xbox RPG's World

Fable co-creator Dene Carter turned to Devil May Cry for an idea of scope when developing the 2004 hit action RPG.

CrimsonIdol526d ago

"Look to your peers", "stand on the shoulders of giants", "don't re-invent the wheel". Or in far more blunt down-to-earth British dev terminology: "rip it off" hahaha

Eonjay525d ago

I mean I agree with his sentiment of not reinventing the wheel. Imagine if every physicist, for example, had to derive the equations of relativity from scratch every time they were looking to make a discovery. We would never get anywhere. This isn't the same thing as straight up plagiarism of course.

CrimsonIdol525d ago

Oh yeah, I imagine there would be very few major games developed in the last 20 years that didn't copy things that worked from previous games in terms of structure and design. The blunt language just made me smile. And I guess opens him up to some click-bait titles.

XiNatsuDragnel526d ago

Study the other person's homework one could Say

Just here to read the comments of the people who obviously didn't actually read the article; just the headline.
