DMC3 has literally the best cutscenes in the history of videogames, what the gently caress are you talking about?

I like that they've got the convenient strawman of getting to pretend that all of the fan outrage is because of Dante's character redesign, and not because Ninja Theory's games both control terribly and have pathetically terrible combat.

I'm sure this'll be the best game Ninja Theory has ever made, but it's also going to be the second worst Devil May Cry game ever made.

Well, if Vergil is in this game he can't possibly be any more cliche or terrible than he was in DMC3, so that's fine by me.

He was awesome in DMC3 because he was ridiculously fun to fight against and that's literally the only thing that matters.

Brand recognition.

I couldn't care less how serious/cliche/corny the plot is or how different Dante 2.0 looks and acts from the original, if the combat feels like a DMC game it's fine by me, and it looks like it's getting pretty close.

It really doesn't, though. The sheer amount of hangtime in the air, half the framerate, and the jankier quality of the animations suggests that it won't be nearly as polished. It only looks like it's 'getting pretty close' because there's a large and varied moveset and because there's a lot of enemy juggling.
