The "official" reason as given by NT long ago, is "Demons", with them attempting to brainwash up with TV or something - I honestly don't know anymore. I don't even get why the demons supposedly run this city in secret. If they're in control of everyone, why bother keeping it quiet? The big problem that DmC is gonna face in terms of content is in about 10 years or so - it's going to feel dated as gently caress. All they need now are the members of Not-Anonymous to carry placards saying "Demons are the 1%, We are the 99%!", and bang! [e]: No problem. Not long to go now, is there, really. Just under three months. VVV Pesky Splinter fucked around with this message at 10:18 on Oct 15, 2012 |

60 FPS on the PC? Yeah, definitely something I'll pick up eventually. Does anyone wonder if NT is deliberately playing up the "edgy anti-authority punk" angle of the game? Bulletstorm came to mind: the ads for that were so dumb that come release day, there was a definite trend of people acknowledging that yeah, the game was full of ridiculously crass and stupid humour, but some of the characters stood out and the dramatic situations and ironies actually worked.

Stuff 'bout Mundus:quote:During the New York Comic Con, Capcom revealed the new demon king in DmC Devil May Cry: Mundus. Source: http://www.gamezone.com/products/dmc-devil-may-cry/news/mundus-announced-as-new-demon-king-in-dmc-devil-may-cry And now some videos where NT attempts to explain why old Dante is no longer cool, and what elements they created the reboot one from. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jUnoqcU2jgQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQxtmF1j8ig https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQMZim3mEWA It boils down to East vs West - East is more "visual", but rather old hat. How they can say that without shame, I don't know, considering that Heavenly Sword (from what little I know) is heavily based on Oriental designs, and that Enslaved is a (very) loose adaption of a pillar of Eastern literature. Dante's monologue of his history, basically needs to be set Linkin Park and oh gently caress, there is the image of him opening his chest to see his heart. HA HA HA ha haha...ha...ha. gently caress you NT. If I didn't know any better, or believed that you were capable of being that subtle, I would have said that this is a parody of a Batman Begins-esque reboots. But they unironically believe this poo poo. Holy loving christ. Pesky Splinter fucked around with this message at 22:46 on Oct 15, 2012 |

quote:"In the old Devil May Cry games, a lot of the action took place in a city called Limbo [sic] which combined fantasy with many elements in the European gothic genre," Funny, because I could have sworn Limbo was YOUR concept for the game. The old game's action took place on an island taken over by demons, an ancient tower, also partially held by demons, that acted as a gateway to the Demonic Realm, and the island-state of Fortuna, not Limbo.

I think the overall level and environmental design is pretty cool in this game, the political and social commentary aside. It reminds me of the hosed up otherworlds that you see at the end of DMC 1 & 3, and something that was sorely lacking in DMC 4 now that I think about it. Besides the inside of that big rear end statue I guess, but I'm not gonna count that because that's just a lame boss arena.

Uncle Wemus posted:Im too chicken to watch what they have to say about old Dante. Basically, that he looks too eastern and anime. And while that was cool then, it's not now. And then they talk about visual differences between East and West, crudely photoshop him into stills of western films as if trying to prove a point, and then attempt to define "cool" for the people of today, citing various musics and fashions as the inspiration for the look of the New Dante. And then they show that embarrassing video of Dante narrating his backstory. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FpAjA9V11Fo To sum it up: *Him outside an orphanage.  *Him with some swinging demon's head  *Him with a load of naked ladies (because, you know HE HAS SEX OMG AND SEE BEWBS AND BUTTS)  *Him fighting some riot police  *And, best of fuckin' all...him in front of a mirror with a whole in his chest, showing his heart, all the while why he narrates about how bad his childhood was, and how he's had to grow up to be what he is.  This is DmC: Devil may Cry in a nutshell. It is so Linkin Park, that you'd think they were joking. But they mean this, 100% sincerely. The art is nice though, but only in terms of technical proficiency. Pesky Splinter fucked around with this message at 00:38 on Oct 17, 2012 |

It's gonna be hard resisting the urge to snag that Vergil figure, because drat, it seems they've even added the detailing into Force Edge to have it better resemble the bit of inlay you can see upon it though Sparda in DMC4. If they only released a 'Corrupt' variant, it'd be worth the money for sure.

For those of you that can tolerate him, Angry Joe has an interview with Capcom about their upcoming games. I honestly can't stomach the guy, so can't offer any comment on the video. And here's the usual doublethink on Dante's backstory, from various people: "Very well put, but as you mentioned ripping open your chest is over the top and excessive which is exactly why I think they did it. They want Dante to retain a trait of over the topness, and ripping open your chest to see your heart is pretty over the top. Plus it's original, I can't say I've seen in a video game where the character rips open his chest just to see his human heart. But that's just my take on it, I find the action to be original, very emotional, and pretty badass." "I still dont think its emo though, if he did it a lot than it would be emo but if he only did it once out of curiosity than its understandable." "I wouldn't consider it "emo" because Dante is not cutting open his chest for attention like that of an "emo" person. He is cutting himself open to see if he's human or not, or at least that's what I get from the context of the picture." Oh, to be 12 again.

I'm just really disappointed that they're going with New Dante instead of Old Dante in Super PlayStation Smash Stars Brawl. I don't even really mind the new DmC game all that much, it's just the fact that Old Dante would have a lot more room for the developers to have fun. He has a rather large arsenal, and those lines imply that Old Dante was probably who they wanted to use. Like, if I had never played Devil May Cry, and you told me you were making a goofy fighting game featuring all of PlayStation's all-stars, and you held up a picture and description of both Old and New Dante, I'd pick Old Dante to be in the game without even thinking.
