Poll: The future of Devil May Cry

[Nathaniel Grey]

I have only ever played Devil May Cry through the demos. I've also seen most of Devil May Cry 3 through video. I've got no knowledge between the two gameplay wise, but personally I feel that they should keep improving on the new DMC then bringing back the old one. Plus I prefer the character model for dante than the old one.

I would like to see a DMC2, I found it odd Capcom went from 1 to 3.

Jokes aside I'd pick the series with a better Dante, better gameplay, and better writing. 3 actually had a decent story inbetween the moments of crazy, obviously it's not some deep artistic thing, but it was enough to give Dante daddy issues character development. 4's story is pretty bad, but the boss banter is the best in the series, the videos are posted often even in non-DMC topics because people find them entertaining. It's much better than FUCK YOUUUUAHHRGAPBBBHHHH. Not to mention since each fully capitalized DMC game improves over the next DMC5's gameplay should be even more amazing. I'd be happy if they mix 3's variety of weapons and styles with 4's ability to switch on the fly.

Dmc made young Dante a street punk which is a hell of a lot closer to how I've always imagined him. Dmc2 would give that universe a chance to grow and Dante to return to being the bad ass we all know and love from the original devil may cry series.

The wasn't much to DMC1 Dante's personality. He shittalked the bosses a bit and got a ham handed romantical scene with no character-building inbetween. DMC3+4 mostly improved on the shittalking and mixed it with some over the top personality traits. I don't see how that's a loss of all the cool points.

Maybe you could elaborate a bit on what points you found cool about DMC1 Dante. I'm not saying your opinion is wrong, i'm just interested why you prefer him.
