Allegedly, New Dante is going to appear in the upcoming "Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale" crossover game thing. This was apparently extracted from a beta. Dante is in red, Nariko - aka Kratos with tits - is in blue. Source: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=484424 Yeah...this game comes out in October, so we'll know then if it's being truthful, or a steaming heap of lies.

I could see New Dante being something Capcom told them to go with when they probably asked to use the the one from the PS2 games.

Most of those look like they are badly cropped using MSPaint or some such, very hard to believe. On the other hand I bet it will be immensely satisfying to kick new Dante's rear end with Raiden.

Sackboy is basically incarnate. I'm amused that they're basically going to use characters from a sorry rip-off of God of War (when Kratos is in this game), and what's looking to be a DMC-in-name-only, while Classic Dante is off on another crossover.

Kamiya is not the director of Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance. He has no involvement at all actually. Actually he might be credited as executive producer, like he is in Anarchy Reigns iirc. But that amounts to him looking up periodically from his manga and going "yea that looks pretty good" and then continuing to read said manga.

I just caught up with this thread. I gotta say, my opinion before this was "Okay Dante looks stupid, but hey, gameplay is what matters" Then I read 1/3 of the thread "Social-commentary. Really? In a DMC game? The one series where the answer to "Where is everyone" was "Who cares, murder demons better and faster now!" At 2/3 "...This doesn't look fun. DMC didn't take itself too seriously and was better off for it. This guy is the epitome of tryhard. And since when does Dante say "gently caress"?" At this point "Okay, so the boss basically looks like GoW with a more miserable dodge (and I hate GoW's dodge system) and combo system. But the backgrounds look cool." Pesky Splinter posted:Updated image for that Battle thing. I'm pretty sure this is a fake because there's some dissonance between having Cole, Ratchet, Sackboy and Daniel Forthesque in one game. I'm also kind of dubious about the whole idea of these characters in a mascot fighter (Super Smash bros this is not), but that's not a topic for this thread.

Yeah, I was indifferent to the character redesign and the tone change (i.e., xtreme fuckwords) and the social commentary idiocy. The other games had this really weird "Japanese anime fantasy pretends to be rock-and-roll but can't decide if that means 'metal' or 'punk'" thing going on that I never really got, so whatever. No great loss, just replacing one kind of middle-school cool with another. Everything about the gameplay that's come out in the past couple months has just looked terrible, though.

e;answered my own question Relating to the video, maybe I'm just over-analysing, but every encounter there only featured one or two enemies.

IIRC, Lilith supposedly mothers a race of demons or succubi or something, though that may have only been written about in the Shin Megami games, and I'm misremebering mythology. The gross bug thing is just called Poison. I wish they'd have given it a proper name, but hey ho. It's a previously unseen area - the slurm* factory. A previously unseen enemy (the big dude)**, and lots and lots of really tedious looking platforming. *gently caress whatever Ninja Theory call the drink - it's slurm. **Well, in action anyway, CA has been around for a while.

Yeah google said something about her being the mother of all succubus's, I was only curious because it turned up in Castlevania and I thought it seemed weird. Anyway, my enthusiasm for this game remains on its downward spiral and none of these videos seem to want to stop that, it just looks slow, which is one thing a DMC game should not be. And yeah, there was a lot of platforming looking sections that seem to be entirely dedicated to such, unless I'm misremembering previous iterations they didn't have much in the way of just platforming, mostly something to break up fight sequences, sometimes make a sequence harder. I'm looking at you, disappearing floor section in the forest To their credit, the game does look quite nice. Not really much better than 4 though, if at all. Which reminds me, I wonder if DmC will have some PC-only extras LDK-style.

That's really their sole forté, is that they can make their games look really nice. Unfortunately, they are usually so obsessed with the visuals that the gameplay suffers drastically. It'd be nice if they did put a LDK type thing for the PC, yeah. There's no telling what'd they do though, considering it took Capcom and NT long enough to even announce a PC version.

Ninja Theory are really trying to make this game suck, aren't they? I'd have thought that the first thing you'd do when making a DMC game would be to ensure that the fighting was fast-paced, but this still looks slow as hell. The political commentary aspect is still dumb, but I was at least hoping that the game could be half-way decent with the combat. Also, that trailer was super bad. At the very least, an action game should have an exciting trailer to get people pumped. It should be bombastic, over the top, in your face, that sort of thing. The music in this one had no force behind it, the camera cuts were too slow, the sword sound effects had no weight, the environment was same-y (possibly because it all took place in a slurm factory) and most of the time was spent watching Dante's arse slowly running or swinging though platforming bits. It shouldn't be hard to make a Devil May Cry game look fun, but somehow they failed at it. e: AccountingNightmare posted:Have they shown any boss besides the hideous worm thing yet? Given that the first boss happens 1/3rd of the way through the game, I don't think they have many more bosses to show aside from the worm one.
