Redundant titles really annoy me. Like the new Doctor Who logo where the Tardis becomes a big DW. We already know that DW stands for Doctor Who, you don't need to remind us. Ugh.
If that's aimed at me DmC: Devil May Cry is actually the title of the game. Yeah I know, it's dumb.
Yeah, I know that was the title of the game. My ire was pointed strictly at Ninja Theory. And at Doctor Who.

This reminded me 2 things.
1. To start another playthrough of DMC3.
2. Not to buy this blasphemous black hair Dante QQQQQQQQQ

Seriously though, that wasn't really a smart move. People just forgetting about the stupid changes and designs they make. They should've waited a bit more for this pathetic PR.

It's a shame it's not coming to the PC, because even if it's certainly not the most popular game in the series (heck, I even get the impression people despise this more than DMC2), it looks like it's going to be lots of fun, even if Dante wants to cut his veins at some point in the game.

so, KayGee, there's no hope of actually finding out what this game was like?
told you it was an arse-pull. this just shows the TRUE face of NT towards us gamers (which is ironic as it's us that pay their wages hah hah!! well, their not getting my cash)

i was actually going to say (2 months ago, but heck, i'm too lazy ^.0) that i saw the 'escape' and another dmc trailers on here and my first reaction was; i IMMEDIATLY HATED that girl (whoever she is/was) because all i could think while looking at her was "you watch she's going to be some soddin' love intrest/whinny partner (that you'll have to team-up with/help/escort)/ annoying-person-that-has-no-value/ or just there to ***** at you" (like that stupid telepathic gypsie in lords of shadow (i refuse to call THAT a castlevania game (and i'm not going to go into my reasons why otherwise i'll get kicked-off for ranting...angerly - seriously, all she did was telepathicly SHOUT AT YOU!! *i'mnotgoingtorant,i'mnotgoingtorant.deepbreath*))
also that dam-te's speed looks slightly faster then previous running-speeds and if he stood still would those buildings crush him ^.^ (and the person who designed that break-away floor was playing WAY TOO MUCH Tetris beforehand :D )
but i admit, it LOOKED fun (bare-in-mind i haven't played any games for quite awhile) but i still wasn't convinced
and i've recently (AFEW weeks back) read some YouTube comment about duh-te being an angel-devil hybrid!?? wha??
(and no matter what colour they do his hair (black/quick-flash of white) it still looks STUPID! that haircut is STUPID)

if NT wanted to do a DMC game then why don't they follow it on from DMC2 -before you rant hear me out-
DMC2 had an open ending- Dante went to hell and we don't really know if that was him that come back, all we heard was the bike, we didn't see him on it (for all we know it could have been Trish??)
and not to mention the biggest fact- he. went. to. hell!
that is a goldern oppatunaty right there! we don't know what hell looks like so it could be made up of a multitude of worlds, place, realities, dimensions and it'd FIT! there'd be no wrong way of doing it.
and we don't know HOW LONG Dante was in the underworld *hinthint*
so there's a whole host of new material/stories waiting to be explored here
but
if this path was ever taken by NT then they need to do these things RIGHT first
-DMC fans fell inlove with the model of Dante that was presented to them in DMC -(or DMC3 if you arrived to the party late ^.0) -(even if i thought his attitude was of a jerk i still thought he was a pretty cool character to play) so don't go changing that -it happened in DMC2 and not alot of fans liked that change (i did because i didn't like Dante's attitude and thought the more mature Dante was better but it wasn't as exciting or fast-paced as DMC which was a letdown)
-Dante has access to an arsonal of weaponry not just his handguns and some scythe/axe/whip/thingy, he has his pistols, other guns (shotgun, nightmare etc.) rebellion (swords of all shapes and strengths +speeds), gauntlets (which had hand-to-hand combat), Devil Trigger-enhanced moves, and this is before we get to DMC3!! (and 4!!) and because DMC2 comes, cronocly, last that means Dante has a WHOLE LOAD of diffrent weapons/moves/'magic' at his disposal. you can't just get rid of that!! (and you can't pull an amnesia-bull-pull like they did to kain in blood omen 2)
-his hair has to stay WHITE! and it has to be the equal of a mop dangling in his face!
-he is NOT GRUFF-VOICED!! (seriously why do all male characters now sound like they were voiced by the same grumpy guy??)
-he has ATTITUDE, you can give him a personality beyond his devil-may-care one but he still won't take no bull from anyone
-his entire desgin and the world he inhabits was desgined to be COOL and that in-turn made it FUN, Dante never took himself or anything else SERIOUSLY -which was how the developers of DMC wanted it (cool, stylish and fun). when you make it into a more REALISTIC game you destroy what it was originally ment to be
(you can tell i'm annoyed, i can't spell or type correctly when i am ^>^)

and i think my rant is over.... *scratches head*....

Omigawd!

Nho whyet hurrr.

Eeees nawt DANTAYYYY!

I'm looking forward to it, I hope we get some more gameplay footage out of this.
You do realize that the arguments against this game have gone WAY beyond the fact that he just has black hair, right? This isn't a devil may cry game because of so many other things that are wrong with the design, not just black hair. If anybody doesn't like the game just because of Dante's hair color, they're an idiot.

I don't like it because I actually have self respect, and I absolutely hate the way that NT has been treating us ever since this whole mess started. Let me ask you something: when is it okay for a developer to insult you on a personal level and laugh at your criticism? When is it okay to be completely and totally disrespected time and time again? I'm not buying their game because I actually have self respect and consumer standards, this has nothing to do with white hair.

But regardless, cry some moar?

The game looks good, I'm going to buy it. But please, do continue with your self respect and consumer standards. Because, put simply
... lol? What gameplay trailers have you been watching? To me, every time I watch one, it looks like they're throwing every western gaming cliche' in the book. If you want to buy the game, by all means, go right on ahead, I will not.

I do not like it when a developer insults me, plain and simple. And I will not support said developer.

What on earth are you talking about?


Yea, hover in the air melee combat, parallel universe fighting, ground falling away to herd the player.

They're not exactly typical western gameplay tropes. Infact all of them bring Bayonetta to mind.

Listen, don't buy the game if you don't want. But don't pretend your reasoning is any thing other than fan rage. As a game, it looks fun.
The difference in trailers can be summed up to personal opinion. I think it looks awfully cliche, personally. Even with your argument, it's saying that a new game in 2012 is trying to keep up with a game that came out 3 years ago (The lead designer of DMC came out and said that he was competing with Bayonetta)... Now that's really moving the industry forward, right there.

Anyway, I actually don't really care about DMC all that much, hell, the only DMC game I've ever played before this is 3, and that was on and off. I just don't like the people creating it that are acting like assholes to their consumers, that's the only thing that gets me upset about this whole thing. That's the same reason I refuse to by Twisted Metal, or any game that EA ever puts out these days.

Anyway, I guess it just comes down to agreeing to disagree. Have fun, and I hope that you enjoy the game.
