DMC4 was one of the first games with a required install and people freaked the gently caress out over it.

DMC4SE looks a lot more appealing than any DmC game.

Now let's hope they put the HD collection on PC sometime.

It doesn't make it sound like you can play as Dante throughout the whole thing though? I guess the devil grabber is too important for that and Lady will get some grappling hook equivalent? I really prefer how Dante plays over Nero though I never could get the hang of Nero that's a shame though.

Yeah, i think the earlier article was mistaken or weirdly phrased. Sorry.

Did DmC Vergil have unique gameplay elements beyond what Vergil was capable of in DMC 3?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a2homPuDF6o&t=50s

they took the most interesting part of him from DmC which was him having 2 swords that instantly teleported him or the opponent next to each other while not affecting his actual motions allowing for really insane combos and radically speeding up the pace of combat with him

I was about to ask, are they removing the loving dice boards or doing anything else to the stages in the game? All these new features are awesome but doing something about it only being half a game stretched into a whole one would be even better.

I think those costumes are a pre-order bonus in Japan. Hopefully since it's digital only everywhere else they'll just be included in the base game, but I doubt there's anyone in this topic who isn't going to buy this on day one anyway.

Mandatory installs were already commonplace on the PS3. The issue was that DMC4 took twenty-five minutes to install and ended up not loading particularly faster than it does on 360.

No. I read it's coming to PC a few days (about 6-7) after releasing on consoles, but I can't find confirmation on the date.

The release dates are all from the Japanese trailer, all the American/European material still just says summer. Can't imagine the releases will be that different between regions though since it's digital only and all versions are bilingual.

Honestly I never really got the hate for the dice boards, sure they are never fun but once you know the snatch trick you can finish them in about a minute. What I really hate is the snatch platforming in the castle where if you are slightly off you hit the spikes in the roof.

What I Really hope they fix is the DX10 mode since Microsoft broke that with some upgrade.

I'm glad the release is a ways off because it means I can finish my current run without it feeling wasted.

Edit: Also if anyone thinks turbomode is too slow, I can recommend getting cheatengine and using the speedhack to turn up a bit, Just tried it with Bloody Palace and turbo and 5x speed and I had consistent S style rank until I got wrecked by a Faust at stage 13 and died. Maybe I'll try 2 or 3X next time because the wait moves are pretty hard to hit at 5.

I hated the rotating blades that are thankfully stopped when you get to playing as Dante.

It could well be boosted to DX 11 for the Special Edition release.

The end of the trailer credits Kazuma Kaneko/ATLUS, so I'm guessing he'll still have his DMC3 DT.
