Dear Ninja Theory:
I, Zack, am a fan of the Devil May Cry games. I like the varied weapons and how the ability to choose between different kinds of “devil arms” and guns allows for a surprisingly deep combat system. I like the cinematics, so lost in their ridiculousness that they eschew any kind of pretension and try to hurl as much fun, stylish, sword-swingingly, pistol-blazingly awesome stuff at the screen as they can. I like Dante a heck of a lot; in practice his actions are a wonderful mixture of camp and awesomeness, but now and then the occasional stop to consider his half-demon, half-human heritage makes him if not relatable, then at least endearing.
I am not going to sugarcoat this. I do not believe that you are the developers right for this franchise.
It's been six years since Capcom dropped Devil May Cry 5, but it's still more than worth replaying in 2025 thanks to its rich gameplay.
Because the anime is on Netflix and we gotta ride that DMC in the news again wave.
It’s been sitting in my backlog for a while now. One of the first games I wanted to try for this current gen due to the long load times of previous gen. I’ll get around to it soon!
One of the best, stylish, and fun action slasher on the system. You definitely should get to it, as soon as you can.
The DMC5 team went on to make Dragons Dogma 2, the DMC director (3,4,5) left capcom to make an action game at another studio and the rumor is that a DMC remake is next...so i wouldn't hold my breath on DMC6.
Everytime its on sale I think about buying it but never do. I only played the orginal and somr of 3 so I guess that's part of it.
"Introducing Muse, a new kind of generative AI model that lets you play and create. From developer ideation to one day supporting game preservation, Muse holds potential to unlock new possibilities." so says Microsoft
Absolutely slimy to use game preservation as a thinly-veiled excuse to continue peddling generative AI garbage. 😡
MUSE
Massive Unmitigated Suspension for Employees.
Lets get this straight. When they say its to asisst creators, they mean assist executive managment. Tell me this, if companies stop paying real people to do real work, who is going to be able to buy anyone else's AI generated products in the first place?
You're definitely preaching to the choir. If you read my own version of the news (it's in the alt sources), it's one of the few times I took the fuc*ing gloves on. I was pissed all day after reading this crap.
Microsoft's latest push into mediocrity and billions wasted. I do wonder if Microsoft will eventually meet the same fate as Intel.
They need to replace Xbox execs with generative AI. It'll do less damage than Phil and the gang for sure
> a first of its kind generative AI model trained on Ninja Theory’s multiplayer battle arena game, Bleeding Edge
Yikes
This is a "Coming soon" from their gaming copilot thingy they're so proud of https://www.youtube.com/wat...
Dunno, feels and looks awful to me
And they didn't explain how they're planning to preserve older games, just some world salad
> To imagine that beloved games lost to time and hardware advancement could one day be played on any screen with Xbox is an exciting possibility for us
This doesn't explain anything. How can they run the older games without hardware it's tied to? Magic?
Whole article actually feels like a world salad galore. Did they use AI to write this?
P. S.: Calling it «Muse» is disgusting.
At Xbox we shit on our employees and our customers. Now who is going to buy this nearly no effort game?
Steam's Summer Sale looks primed for Steam Deck players - with a huge collection of titles on offer for the handheld.
increase the frame-rate and add resets. This is the least they can do... Even a jump cancel would do it to combat those retarded canned combos. DMC was good because you could make original combos thanks to the resets.
A little humility would hurt as well. NT's arrogance is half the reason why I'll pass on DMC. The other half happens to be my personal ban on all EA Japan (also known as Capcom) games....
NT and Capcom deserve each other and they deserve a nice healthy failure for crapping on fans...
I'd rather play another DMC with Nero as the protagonist than play a reboot because reboots never really beat the original.
