One Big Unpopular Opinion - DmC: Devil May Cry Retrospective & Review
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 вер 2024
- Surrounded by controversy and despised by many, DmC: Devil May Cry is a very divisive game. In this retrospective and review, I speak out on behalf of the countless fans who genuinely love this game, and give my reasons why this game is deserving of praise.
DmC: Devil May Cry is a reboot from Capcom's popular Devil May Cry series. The game features the series' signature combat mechanics, but deviates from the Japanese style of storytelling, in favour of a more westernized approach. This is one reason why there was a significant amount of backlash from some of the DMC community.
I take a look at everything this game has to offer (not the DLC) and judge it on it's own merits, as well as in comparison to the rest of the games in the Devil May Cry series.

I made this review for 2 reasons. First, I wanted to. And second, to give an argument against the countless negative reviews for DmC: Devil May Cry.
There's still so much I could say about this cracking game! But alas, there's only so much I can hold the average viewer's butt in their seats. I think the point comes across well enough.
I wanted to speak out on behalf of so many comments on UA-cam that praise this game. I feel, despite this video's title, that loving this game isn't going to be as unpopular as time goes on.
I hope you enjoyed this presentation. Please give the video a Thumbs Up if you did, and Subscribe! Check out my other videos. I upload all kinds of content!
See you all soon.
The soundtrack is best boi
Wow, in a sea of negative reviews that I will say mostly complained that it isn't like the mainline titles when that was the point, I find this!!
I feel relaxed being with calm and actual fans of this title.
@@xinyan4116 I'm glad 😊
Ninja Theory's best work in my opinion.
Devil May Cry V's producer actually wants Ninja Theory to make a sequel to this game and the series director wanted there to be one as well. I'd be 3000% down with that.
Having played all their known games I agree DmC is their best.
I'd play more of this, cause it's a good game. All the negative reviews say nothing about the gameplay, the story, the atmosphere. All of the negative reviews are about Dante's hair and attitude.
@@deathbykonami5487 exactly, people hate the game because it isn't "Devil May Cry." but it is soooo fucking good.
@@beardalaxy It's definitely good besides the fact that it's an alternate universe which makes sense why Dante seems like a rebel. I honestly hope it does get a sequel since the director of the main dmc games has left after making dmc 5 aka the last game of the main universe
No matter how much hate this game gets, I still love it. I'm glad to see someone actually say something positive about the game too. Great video.
Thank you my man. Glad you enjoyed 😁
Do my eyes deceive me? A positive review on DmC: Devil May Cry?
The soundtrack and artistic direction is definitely it's strongest suit. In my own personal take, I align with the reboot Dante as a character, tmi. In all seriousness, great video!!
Ikr there's few of these positive reviews out there for the game and that's exactly why I wanted to make this. I agree, the music is one of the best things about DmC!
Glad you enjoyed 😊✌
Having already played DMC 1-4, I just finished this game today for the first time and I absolutely loved it.
I find it comforting to be amongst DmC fans and level-headed critics.
People keep saying that it should be its own title and shouldn't share DMC but I see it being comparable with Final Fantasy with their standalone installment each time.
Granted, Final Fantasy are their own standalone installments. So if (and it's a big _if_) they do a sequel, DmC and DMC are standalone installments of the entire Devil May Cry franchise.
Rock on 😎
It's a solid game 👌
This is my favorite game of the franchise. Everyone tells me I have terrible taste.
Then tell them to piss off.
Fuck them, this game is awesome, and you have all the rights to like it. Personally it's not my favourite in the franchise because you know, DMC3 exists, but it's still in my top 10 favourite games just because how much I'm attached to it and how it is to replay
The fact that DMC 5 took some ideas from this game speaks volumes about how influential it was. The narrator for the style rank system, the name cards when enemies are introduced, the slow mo when killing the last enemy. There are many flourishes the DMC 5 devs implemented in their latest entry that were first introduced in DmC Devil May Cry. Rightly so, since these additions were some of the best things about DmC.
Thing is, DmC still does it better when it comes to the S-SSS style voice. You can't deny how badass SAVAGE sounded, or rewarding hearing SENSATIONAL was.
My biggest gripe however was the absence of taunts! With how good the animations are in DmC, can you imagine how good the taunts would have been.
The entire plot of 5 is directly tied to how DmC gave Vergil his own unique Devil Trigger allowing him to split himself.
Dantes alt colors in 4SE and 5 are the same as DmC Dante.
The Void? DmC.
Combo previews before purchase? DmC.
The world falling apart? DmC.
City atmosphere? DmC.
Slo-mo intro? DmC.
"Fuck you" to a boss? Yup, DmC.
It's sad we were supposed to get a sequel, Itsuno was so mad about it he almost quit. But it's clear he wanted to keep up a lot of what they were doing in honor of their efforts and in spite of how awful Capcom was for them to work for.
I love this game currently replaying it one of the most underrated in the series
I want to stress that this could have inspired dmc 5's improved aesthetic, also whenever I look at Nero with that short hair, he kinda reminds me of this DmC's Dante.
The devs absolutely took some inspiration from DmC 100%. I thought Nero looked a bit like DmC Dante, too!
Most people don't realize Nero and DmC Dante are effectively the same character. Same attitudes, same humor, same moves, both left handed, both short hair, and both were given a slo-mo intro.
It makes me sooooo happy to see people embrace and love this game just as much as i did. DMC 5 honestly just didnt have the same appeal to me.
Same. You're in good company 😄
I was so excited about 5 personally. Like I LOVE this reboot.
But anything from this whole franchise I'm open to play..but overall it just didn't hit that something y'know..
Anyway, much luck and love💜
Same here. I thought DMC5 would've been better but all it did was copy the reboot and try too hard to be an anime. I'm glad people are starting to appreciate the reboot - well, some people, to be precise.
The only thing that i missed from previous dmc's games was the Taunting button.
I think it has the most satisfying combat. Lots of the hate comes from the initial trailer of skinny, lethargic, drug addict Dante. Then they changed him but added the line about how he would never have white hair when the wig blows onto his head. Those people dismissed it out of hand
I've heard some lusicrous and idiotic reasons for hating this game. I think most of us have. Thanks for chipping in 🙂
@@EggOnBeansOnToast Yeah, some of the reasons are the level design, wich was improved in every single way for this reboot, or saying the story was bad.
How strange when they never say that when it comes to the other games, like 4 having bad level design or 5 having an atrocious writting and story, and having the most bland visual style of the series.
2024, and some people still can't cope with this game being actually enjoyable
The hate this game gets is an injustice. It was a dope reboot and it really sucks that people didn't embrace it. Honestly this Dante made the one seem corny. And as much as I enjoyed Devil May Cry V, I really do wish they would have kept up with this one as a parallel series but alas....the nerds have spoken.
"people don't share my opinion" = nerds
Well you never know, one of the creators of dmc 5 stated he wanted another dmc from ninja theory but with that company being bought by Microsoft its def unlikely
I think the reason DMC 5 being more colorful than previous og games was because of the reboot. Honestly i like the limbo dimension better compared to darker "demon overtake" on DMC 1-4.
@@Dan_Kanerva dude these people literally shit their pants and call bomb threats on the devs if their favorite characters hair color changes
@@Padlock_Steve ah yes, the backlash was because hair color. Not because they retconed the entire story, not because the dialog became SheHulk levels of bad, not because no lock on and terrible changes to combat, not because the low tier voice acting, not because tons of bugs, not because color coded enemies. NOPE, muh evil haters cuz hair color 😭😂
Can we talk about Dante's wardrobe? I LOVE his visual design
Is it your favourite in the series? What do you like about it?
@EggOnBeansOnToast hmm. Probably my favorite next to Nero's DMC4 and DMC5 wardrobes, and Vergil's wardrobes.
I like the grungy kinda punk aesthetic it has. Also a sucker for jeans and the coat looks pretty cool. Especially once you beat the game and unlock the white haired version
Nice. Did you know the U.K flag on Dante's sleeve was something Ninja Theory added as a small nod to their U.K based production offices? I had previoisly often wondered why the flag was on his coat.
This is the only DMC game I've played as the others never appealed to me enough to try them. I would love to see a sequel to it and see what direction it goes.
Although the overall tone is different if you liked DmC I think you would Like DMC 5. It's a fantastic game, and I'm saying this as someone who likes both games.
@@Specuh it's on sale now so I'm thinking about it. But the fan base of the mainline series are such whiners I don't even want to bother. DmC now that's a game I enjoyed enough to double dip with the Definitive Edition of it.
However the real reason is I looked up clips and it seems the camera is static and the levels are all grimy demon world areas. DmC had great Limbo locations with a few grimy levels
@@UA-camCensors And yet it's Ninja Theory, those who made DmC, who insulted the original series and the fanbase. If they just offered their take as an alternative version of the Devil May Cry world, I promise you most people wouldn't have had a problem.
"the _others never appealed to me enough to try_ them" . BUT THIS ONE DID? what are you, a Wattpad reading pre-teen?
Same here.
I didn’t know there was controversy over this game? I just bought it again and think it’s one of the best also the Combichrist soundtrack is amazing.
Oh, yes. Big controversy all round. But it doesn't change the fact that it's still a killer game.
It’s a shame. As I was playing the other day, it was just a nice reminder of how good the gaming industry was. This game was so damn unique. Ahh well
Just found this out a few hours ago myself. Played the game when it came out and loved it.
@@crzychill7623 same, loved it then, loved it more now.
Bro I couldn't agree MORE.....
Best game I played on PS3 and PS4
"He's a FAR more fleshed out character in THIS game than he ever was prior." Jesus Christ! It's so validating to hear this said out loud.
Yet FAR less likeable.
@@ElvenRaptor speak for yourself. donte way more interesting than dante imo.
@@TripleEightssYet his game couldn't even break a million in 2013 despite having the whole year to do so. Meanwhile, Dante has a whole game series dedicated to him. So, I speak for the majority of the entire fanbase.
@@ElvenRaptor I would've expected that "majority" to stop bitching and whining by now, 2024, but I guess I was wrong. It's obvious by this point that the average dmc fan of your "majority" just can't handle a game without the white hair Dante being their sexual fantasy.
That, or since, well, Devil may cry players, are not used to see a character evolving, you know, not being one dimensional, something classic Dante has yet to achieve since the very first game...
@@ViJolt28469 Very strange that you put 'majority" in quotations like my claim is false when the game sales back up statement.
Also, thank you for telling me that you've played any of the Classic DMC games.
I really love this game, it's the only dmc game I'm playing over and over (almost) and a big part of that is the music.. Combichrist killing it
Incredible music! Glad you enjoy 😉
love this game.
It was a great game, just completely missed the atmosphere of the series. I wish Capcom continued this series alongside the main titles. If it didn't try to REPLACE the OGs, it would be well received for sure.
It should've been a spin-off, so much wasted potential.
Capcom did want to continue it. So did Itsuno. Ninja Theory bailed on them because they were awful to work with and are the reason behind the changes most people hate on them for.
You know, I like that you pointed out that game play because as a new fan of the franchise I have a hard time playing the games and consistently pulling A all the way to SSS stylish ranks unless I'm playing as Vergil.
I play on pc with controller and the game is so smooth and I love it. I wouldn't call the stylish system in DmC Devil May Cry "easy", rather more accessible. Which I personally like
Yeah, same. Its accessible but there's room to pull off some tougher, more stylish combos.
@@EggOnBeansOnToast agreed. I like to pair combos of Osiris with Aquila.
I tried playing the special edition of devil may cry 3 and the game wouldn't let me change the controls. Every time I did, the game told me that the controls needed to be remapped, even though I just did that! I couldn't leave the controls menu until I reset the controls to the default controls, the same kind of controls where the shoot button is the I key. But with DmC I'm not even sure If I had to change the controls.
I've being playing it for a week on PS3 now, loving it. I love the voice acting, the visual aesthetics, the witty dialogue, and of course, the godly soundtrack.
Amen! Glad you're enjoying it 😊
@@EggOnBeansOnToast I'm going to get it for PC, too. You know, I thought of something else after you mentioned the facial expressions being spot on, another point I wholeheartedly agree on - a 2017 game like "Mass Effect: Andromeda" failed miserably to do what this 2013 game did splendidly.
@@gotinogaden Oh wow the Mass effect 3 was in 2017 and even DmC holds much better today, even with just the tweaks needed to put it on current and new gen today🤣
I love this video!!!❤️
My personal thoughts:
I loved Dmc and although the story wasn’t perfect the gameplay, graphics, and soundtrack were AMAZING! I thoroughly enjoyed switching between my weapons (going from Rebellion to Osiris to Eryx) and putting them together to form long combos that end with that flashy slow mow. It’s badass and with the metal behind it you feel like a true devil-hunter lol. I wish the characters had more emotional depth but with the clashing viewpoints of Ninja Theory and Capcom they couldn’t really make the game theirs (if that makes any sense) which led to the story not being god-tier. If the story had some more moments (cutscene wise) it would give Dante, Vergil, and Kat more of a connection leading to Dante’s maturity at the end of the game. Thank you for reading this far lmao have a good day
if DmC was called literally anything else, like Nephilim or even DMC: Black, and was treated like a spin-off series rather than reboot i guarantee you people wouldn’t have been so harsh on the game.
DmC is great through-and-through, it’s a shame we’ll never see the end of the trilogy.
I like the game but I understand how some were upset it was replacing the original series. I wouldn’t mind if it continues as an alternative spin-off
If Devil May Cry is Tobey Maguire Spider-Man the DmC Dante is the Andrew Garfield Spider-Man… it’s the same just in an alternate reality… aside from the developer’s antics… the game is great and an awesome realistic depiction of the genre.
This game was the first one that felt like a film. Devil May Cry 3 -5 felt like an epic anime.
Took the words out of my mouth! I used to be very upset with Spider-Man 4 getting cancelled and rebooted but after giving TASM1 a chance, I really enjoyed the new suit and Andrew's performance that I had watched the deleted scenes and played the tie-in game. As for DmC, I was very curious why a game would get so much hate when I hated DMC4 for making Nero who was very unlikeable to me in terms of personality and gameplay, so I tried the reboot and I enjoyed that too. DmC Dante was more grounded and relatable compared to Nero and comparing him with mainline Dante would seem unfair imo and managed to find purpose and responsibility within Kat, a human who wasn't as useless as Kyrie and wasn't made for decorated fanservice.
DMC3 had a bit of anime vibes but 4 and 5 went too far and turned it into a gimmicky shonen anime that targeted a younger demographic, unfortunately. That's Capcom for you.
I want this reboot to continue
I must add regarding the way people viewed the process and opinions of the NT development. So many say they were being mean towards the predecessor titles and have gay jokes against it, whilst many in the reboot defend that NT maintains that they like the predecessors but they have opinions regarding such issues DMC was riddled then.
I don't know 😥 for me personally the devs were much more disrespected on than any of the miscommunication that happened.
I hope for this title's sequel. I'll be honest I quite like Vergil's version here.
Cheers, Lisa. The back and forth between some of the fans and NT were quite close to the knuckle. But, I agree with you.
And I, also prefer Virgil in DmC. I think the cast in the reboot are simply more fleshed out ✌️
NT didn't really have a choice. They wanted to make Dante closer to how he was in the first game, it was Capcom that forced their hand in that, among other things they were wrongly ridiculed for. You can see their early concepts are 100% original Dante. Then they get weirder and weirder and further from the source as per Capcoms demands.
A sequel was indeed good for the go. We were seriously gonna get one, but... due to the problems they had working with Capcom (and likely needless backlash from losers in the community who tried to boycott it) they decided to quit working with Capcom.
Itsuno, the director since 2, was also going to quit because of it. Capcom has never been a deserving owner to DMC.
@@stinkfinga4918 Oh that is so sad. Ninja Theory deserves so much better. Well they did win an award for Hellblade part 1. But a DmC sequel is what I wish too
This is my favorite DMC game super fun and hilarious
This games along with many others was made in an attempt to get Western sales cause Japanese sales were down. This game was also where there was death threats going on. Also Capcom has history of doing spinoff and redirection. Their plan was to run both. They literally doing this with Resident Evil where the new ones are first person while the other is over the shoulder.. This game also show a younger Dante but got push up in age. The problem is they should had kept the casual plans but made it harder. They should had kept the original plans. They should had went for thirty missions instead due to the fact they combine all the manga and games into this reboot.
My question is why does Dante look like Machine Gun Kelly 😭
I understand that since the punk rock look is all about going against conventions during its peak, like the uneven shortened hair, wilder colorful hair and spikes.
But Dante's a real punk, whilst Kelly's a Hollyweird Blood-drinking poser with a bad and questionable history. No demon needs to make shit up about Kelly🤢
I like this game and I don't mind emo dante
I like this one a lot too. I like the chemistry between Vergil and Dante once Dante becomes less of a punk. I like the 'twist' of Vergil seeking to rule Hell at the end too. The entire time you think he's your good hearted bro then nah. Was just manipulative. The OG DMC games never had these kind of story arcs. (I know these arcs are cliche but in a DMC game, it's worth noting)
This is somewhat unrelated I guess but I'm currently at this moment playing the Force Unleashed 1 (trying to clear my backlog) and the game very clearly had some influence from DMC1/3.
Thank you 😊 I love this game, flaws and all!!
Story: I was actually disappointed. Ninja Theory has great story telling points and showed so much in their current Senua game! I have a feeling Capcom's higher ups intervened too much and had little faith on both their own team and on NT. And that's sad. I love the main two characters, Dante and Kat, but I wished there were more emotional moments though. I can see there's a lot of baggage between these two, yet there's never any progression (not into romance, but I see them as kindred spirits). I guess it was supposed to be for a sequel, but we know there may never be 👀
Gameplay: it just works! I had finished it at the hardest and I understand it's also for newcomers. I missed the taunting though.
Music/Art: Chef's kiss 😘 just stellar! I don't understand how there aren't any metal/rock fans to this game that NEEDS a throbbing sound to pump us up!! People disliked DMC5 Subhuman, a theme for Dante, but it fits sooo well for him! The musicians clearly took notes from Combichrist and I feel people just deny it, didn't want to be associated with the reboot. And Noisia!! They made most of the ambient sounds that, if you told them it can be for Silent Hill or perhaps another industrial horror game, they'd be none the wiser. But it's for DmC and it works! I especially love Kat's Theme. What a somber sound, reflective of her character but also the deeply wounded themes amongst the characters!
Great video and a perspective about what the heck is Capcom on about these days. I have to say, I haven't seen much original titles on them, only sequels. It's not bad but how do we maintain a long series fresh? So sorry and TLDR, just stumbled upon the channel when you commented on one of the DmC cutscenes videos!
Hey, wow, thanks for this response!
It was good to read your opinion and points. I really think this game gets too much hate. But I get it.
I think for what they did, NT did a fantastic job. DmC Devil May Cry is my favourite entry next to the very first game.
To this day, I listen to the soundtrack every week when I go for my 4 hour walks. I really dig what those groups did.
Thanks again for your comment 😁✌
@@beardalaxyTeam Ninja made Dead or Alive, not Ninja Theory.
We need a dmc multiverse
That would be wild. Honestly couldn't rule that out with the way games and movies are these days.
Read my mind pal like for years I sorta thought of that
I would honestly love to see DmC Dante and DMC Dante interact. I can already see them both cringing at each other.
can we just meme this game until we get the long awaited sequel? to this day I wonder what an angel trigger or Nephilim trigger would look like and with NT solid track record, they would absolutely smash the sequel. We could have a game that focuses on the emotional aspect between the two brothers. None of the mainline games showed me how close they were and Kat is an amazing addition. Solid video and keep it up. El donte el exterminador de demonios!
I like the idea you pose of focusing between the two brothers in a potential sequel. I think a lot of character development would do wonders. Thanks for that comment, dude 🙂
Yup really fun game,loved the combat,story and characters at best mediocre at worst cringe but art and aesthetic is on point,it just has it's own style which i respect
It was my first and my favorite DMC game. the gameplay's fast pace was a lot more enjoyable to me than the likes of DMC3, 4 or 1. and even considering the base game's flaws, such as no lock on and color coded enemies, the gameplay still kicks a lot of ass.
as for the story, i thought it was enjoyable as long as you don't take it seriously which you shouldn't, its devil may cry lol. the aesthetics and world building of the game was fantastic as much as it strayed forward from the original series, it had a lot of potential. i'm sure if capcom didn't force ninja theory that much we would have gotten a way better story than what was delivered (the concept arts leaned heavily towards the rebellious and psychology aspects of dante. the aesthetics were like the early 30/40's of Europe while at the same time it was modern. the character designs resembled the og counterparts while also staying different. like a samurai look for vergil and a detective look for dante)
the music really got me into the metal genre and i still listen to it from time to time. it was a really good starting point to get into the franchise and i hope someday we get a multiverse/crossover type of game between the two series or probably a sequel.
i really enjoyed your video and your point of view. it was a breath of fresh air.
Hey DonteXD, thanks for submitting your review. The game is fantastic!
Thank you for watching 😁✌
Thats exactly what im saying. Honestly I totally agree. Take the dialogue for example. I genuinely enjoy the dialogue because the game is over the top vulgar and grotesque and is fully aware of that. While the game doesnt take itself too seriously, it is able to pull off serious moments when they need to happen while still maintaining the humorous charm the game carried along with it the entire way. Comparing it to DMC 5, I feel that its edgy for the sake of being edgy while not poking fun at itself the way DmC did. Just my take on it.
@@MorphinGamingNot just that. It really freaks me out that some people, that "majority" some idiot wants me to believe, still say DmC dialogues were bad, while never mentioning it of 5.
In terms of characters, the reboot eats 5 and it's not even close.
Dante and Nero are fine, but V is just lame, Vergil is Vergil, he has not changed or evolved at all, and the other 3, Nico is just stupid, and makes me want to cut her in half with Red Queen every time she opens her mouth, Trish has like 2 lines in the whole game, and Lady is at best, as good as Quiet was in MGS5, if you know that game.
The villain? Vergil again, and that joke of Urizen before him.
But hey, for the "majority", the reboot is the weakest point for sure...
I know this is weird, but DmC: Dmc has my favorite control of Dante, especially combat. I like it much more than even the latest release DmC 5.
I guess this has to do with that this was my first Dmc game. Combos are more free flow, and changing weapons mid-combo is so easy and satisfying to do.
When I went back and play other older Dmc game, I found them extremely clunky.
Even in Dmc 5, I rarely switch weapons during my multiple play through, because the control scheme doesn't really encourage doing so, besides you also don't really need to. Technically you can do it, but it feel so weird to pull off.
Hey Elisti Agel,
No, I agree 100%. I've played most DmC games and found DmC to be the most flexible in terms of control and movement, just as you say.
I think DmC V caters more to the proper die hard/hardcore of fans, which is fine of course. But even with that being said, it wouldn't be where it is without the reboot.
Thanks for commenting, and I hope you enjoyed the video 🙃✌
I definitely prefer the original series (mainly 3, 4, and 5) but I honestly would rather a DmC 2 before a DMC 6. I still had a blast with this game, it had its issues, mainly with the story, but I would absolutely love to see a sequel to this game more refined and better handled. I think this game would have done incredibly if it didn’t have the Devil May Cry tag on it
REBOOT DANTE'S HAIRCUT IS ACTUALLY NOW MY SIGNATURE HAIRCUT.
I want his haircut so bad!
That's a gay ahh haircut
Man I never even finished DMC 5. DMC Devil May Cry had the best story, best Virgil, best villaon, best world. Let's be real: the other games didn't have a world, just levels. And peopled said bring Nero back. And I was like: please don't. Peope complained that Dante is whiney (??) in DMC Devil May Cry... and one of the first lines of Nero in DMC5 was: "HE SAID I WAS WEAK!". Damn that Nero kid is annoying.
Finish it. But I'm not saying this as a big fanboy lol
By comparison, from gameplay to visual looks, DmC did win me over. I perfectly knew it's different. I don't want it any other way. A d it seems Ninja Theory as a team stood their ground and decided to make their own games, even when they went to sign on to Microsoft.
But who knows, if Capcom will reach out to Microsoft for a sequel contract.
I actually never thought of it that way. I like both characters. But looking back yeah😂Nero to me is the one that keeps trying to look cool while hiding a more authentic guy
I've only now played this game in 2023 and i can honestly say it's incredible
Welcome to the fandom! It's a cracking game, for sure 👌
OMG THANK YOU! I've played All the Devil May Cry Games and I was one of the few that felt DMC was very fresh and amazing. Its not perfect by any means, but its not a steaming pile like most Devil May Cry fans claim. I loved it and even re bought the game on PC and PS4.
You are welcome 😊 It truly is a great game!
This game has one of the best hack n slash control schemes i've ever had fun with! I've played DMC 3, and DMC 5...but this one's combat is on another level! Really wish they continued.
i love all things devil may cry including this i actually had respect for them releasing there own version of dante but i always knew they would bring back the classic
I'm playing this game again in 2023 I love this game,and the story and the skills and the art its amazing, I will be happy to see DMC 2
Hey found your channel on Reddit! Super cool content man, you've got a good voice for these kinda stuff. Keep it up! I just started as well
Hey, jamseylau,
Cheers bud. Appreciate the kind words. Good luck to ya 🤘
I was a hater of this game when it came out but after playing it i came to really enjoy it. I liked the reboot Dante i wasn't a big fan of Vergil though but i had already started theorizing that kat would me reboot neros mom based off of a comic
First thanks for the vidéo i play this game in 2013-2014 in a arcarde in my homeland Gabon "Africa" i was a teen and it's was the 3rd dmc for me and i'm not afraid of said that it's my top 3 dmc game damn what a nostalgia my first game on xbox 360 it's a shame that people hate that beautiful game really it's make me sad 😢 sometimes
Glad you enjoyed the video. It's a great game! ✌️
The amount of people who dismiss the story in this game because they are used to being spoon fed the story arch half way through every game with character ques. I don't think they understand that this story is being told completely from the perspective of Dante himself. So the game doesn't give you any hints as to which direction it is really going until Dante himself actually arrives there. You actually have to play through the game to get the full story instead of figuring it out long before the story reaches that conclusion itself. And it forces you to actually pay attention to the story or you wont understand what is happening.
Very true. Great points!
The 'community' will never admit it because it's their favorite game in the series, but DMC3: Dante's Awakening is actually the first reboot of the series.
Prepare yourselves...
Despite it being sold as a prequel, it's the first game to change the story as well as Dantes characteristics. People argue that it's because he was still a teenager, but his persona from the first game is never seen again. He remains the same character he was in 3 for the rest of the series. It had the highest marketing budget and was accompanied with a manga and anime series to try and stimulate hype. Dante in 3 became the definitive rendition of the character thereafter.
In the first game its said he lost his mother and brother 20 years prior, leaving Dante as the sole survivor. He is a devil hunter not for fun, but because he is on a path for vengance.
His only confirmed age in the games is between 20-30 in DMC1 (most sources say approximately 28). If he loses his family 20 years earlier, it means DMC3 takes place when he was around 8 years old...
Of course, this is not the only problem. Its detailed in the enemy files that Nelo Angelo is the possesed soul of Vergil... because he originally died as a child. However at the end of 3, Vergil challenges Mundus and losses, corrupting him, and ultimately turning him into Nelo Angelo which he is only seen as in 1 (and a special costume in 3). No matter which route you go, Vergil is defeated for good in 1, as his amulet falls into Dantes hands and he dissipates into nothing, unlike when you defeat him twice before and he just whisps away to retreat. Mundus also confirms that Vergil is defeated.
Yet, he pops up inexplicably in DMC4SE, and is the main villain in 5.
So what gives with such blatant errors in continuity? Why exactly did Dante forget the anime sword fights he and his brother would have throughout their lives?
Better yet... where did Rebellion come from? Dantes own signature sword? In 1 his signature weapons are his handguns, Ebony & Ivory.
I'll fucking tell you, it all came from Itsunos asshole when Capcom gave him the game to direct instead of the people who actually created it. He didnt know wtf do to and thats why 2 is the entry you're not supposed to play. No, the community says you have to play 3, 1 (if you want), 4, and 5. Why? Because they dont want to admit 3 changes everything making the first game one big plot hole. It is a reboot that changes Dante, changes Vergil, and changes the story itself, not at all unlike the SECOND reboot, DmC.
I will say 5 tries to remedy this by explaining Vergil had Shadow, Griffon, and Nightmare as his handlers while he tried to gain that elusive 'more power' hes always after. What ACTUALLY happened was his mom simply thought Vergil was already dead so only Dante was saved. Of course, none of this is ever mentioned in their anime sword fights in 3, theyre simply rivals who forgot the plot. Ones good, ones bad... why? Cuz its a goddamn reboot and Itsuno never knew wtf he was doing with the story.
Enter Nero. How does he exist? Dunno. Who did Vergil bang to create him? Dunno. Maybe they'll cover it in DMC6 now that Nero is effectively the main character since 4, because contrary to popular belief, no one liked Dante in 3 at the time it was released. Ruben Langdon himself has confirmed this.
If youve made it this far, understand this lengthy comment exists to remind you there really is no 'canon continuity in the DMC series. Literally everything is up in the air as the games go on. Not only that, but that the entire reason DMC5 exists is not because DmC was a failed reboot, its because Ninja Theory refused Capcoms request to make a sequel and signed a contract with Microsoft. DmC2 had a green light, both Capcom and Itsuno wanted it, but because of Capcom not allowing Ninja Theory to have creative freedom, they bailed for another company.
The problems Ninja Theory went through are the same problems people have with DmC. They wanted to retain Dantes appearance and attitude from 1, Capcom said no dice, make everything as far removed from the original vision as possible. Make color coded enemies. Hes half angel half devil. Give Vergil a derby.
Its on record Itsuno was so upset with how Capcom handled DmC that he threatened to quit the company as well, so they folded and said he could make one more and have full creative freedom.
No matter what the cringey and braindead community states as fact, DmC is a fucking great game, and a great Devil May Cry game with the best atmosphere, and the best soundtrack. If Capcom suits werent so fucking dumb, we'd likely have TWO more games instead of a half assed special edition of 4, and DMC5 at this point.
Thank you for your time... and enjoy the diamond the community forced in the rough that is DmC: Devil May Cry
Jesus, nice read. You certainly know more than I do. Thanks for the time to write this!
I can't believe it. Ninja Theory is an indie company and needed financial support. But also they needed creative freedom.
I know they did say they thought they were gonna do dmc 5. They thought they were in collab to make a sequel.
I would've been just as excited. But you know what despite the big changes, it was those changes that just made DmC too unique. And a direction that was missed entirely.
I mostly agree with you. Over the years I came to realise that the original DMC is too goofy to be taken seriously... and the gameplay of this game... MmmmMmmmmm
DmC 2 yould be awesome. But it would probably be toned down because of the amount of backlash it got :/
This is my favourite and only canon DmC game.
Being frank as a fellow fan of this game I admit this has a solid mythos. The hardcore haters will excuse the "classic" but that series has been retconned so many times.
I love the dream runners to be honest
I think I just suck against them lol. Thanks for watching.
@EggOnBeansOnToast They're a pain in groups and don't get me started on if there's a witch, but if you're struggling with finding openings, you can actually shoot them with ebony and ivory to get them in their deflect animation and then demon pull them to stagger them. Thanks for responding, though. It's always cool seeing creators willing to interact with their audience
Thanks for the tip! I'll try to remember this on my next run 👌
I bought the definitive edition this year and loving it, I played 10 years ago, five years ago and will play it again !!
Got the game couple of days ago and I was surprised by how pleasant my experience was.
My first game in the series was 3 and I loved it despite me being 12 at the time and playing in easy mode, later when I turned 15 a couple of months ago I got 5 and it was as good as everyone said it was but not as good as 3.
So now I was scared since I wanted to try it out since I first heard about it but when I got it...holy hell it's underrated! It has its fair share of problems and the story was...well, I'm not going to say it's worst than 2 but it ain't winning any awards but the gameplay surprised me, took getting used but it's fast, it's fluid, and it feels great! The animations especially with Dante are something I enjoy due to it shows how inexperienced he is. He stumbles after putting weight into his attacks, nearly falling after doing Streak, I love it!
The music, my favorite part of this game is fucking amazing! Introduced me to Combichrist and Noisia one of the best soundtracks in the series. (second going to 5, first going to 3.)
The environment is like something out of an acid trip, seriously I can't get over how nice no GORGEOUS they look. Especially in the area, Dante gets Ophion.
The dialogue is (in my opinion) so bad it's amazing like Holy hell the writers must've gotten a raise for how amazing the writing is. It's bad yet it fits with the personality of the game, especially with Dante. With each line it makes me howl like a hyena but some lines make me happy, like Dante and Vergin's interactions. They act like brothers albeit on the final mission while a fun fight Vergin's change to being evil felt shoved in like it they couldn't think of anything else.
My real negatives are, that the concepts being wasted originally Dante was going to have both a Devil and Angel trigger presumably via the same way you activate Devil and Angel mode that would've made Dante's Devil trigger interesting to me.
The face models need to be sculpted like sculpted especially Vergin's.
Kat didn't do anything here, compared to Lady and Trish to me she just felt like a background character waiting for Dante.
Sparda wasn't who he was, instead of being the legendary black knight who sealed hell, he's just a demon who fell in love with an angel with no cool moments, no parts of his story even being revealed.
And finally, Vergin himself. While Dante was able to grow on me throughout the game Vergin made me distance him. Instead of being the cool and collected badass, he was in the other games, here he jumps to conclusions, makes irrational decisions, and trys to justify his actions. I'm not saying Vergil is honorable but he knew what he was doing and he didn't care that's what made his character appeal to me, he didn't care about honor, he wanted power and he was going to have it. Vergin quite literally listens to a figment of his imagination kinda (Vergil's Downfall) and then jumps to conclusions stating that Eva loved Dante more than him while taunting her with his amulet taken from Dante's hollow self.
I give a solid 7.5/10 as its own game, as a DMC game 5/10.
@CelesteLunaR53L Exactly! Vergil 's plot twist should've been better written or scraped and it looked like thet were going to, but Capcom had to be Capcom I guess. Huh, so much wasted potential here.
I unironically love this game. There were so many creative ideas poured into it. Had a blast playing it.
Based🏆
This is my favorite Devil May Cry game. I have played the series since the ps2 and I was one who criticized the game back in the day and skipped it. Then I got this game in a sale and wow. Everything about the this game is fantastic. The combat, the story, the environments. Wow. Second favorite is the original game for similar reason and on third place being the third game. So you are not alone. If this game was called something other than DMC, it would be an all time classic.
this is my favorte devil may cry game many may not agree with me but I want a sequal because at the end of vergils dlc it left us on a cliffhanger
We were gonna get one. Capcom gave it the green light. Itsuno tried to persuade Ninja Theory, but due entirely to Capcoms management in creative freedom, Ninja Theory bailed on Capcom entirely and signed a contract with Microsoft for future endeavors.
Sadly, DmC is a one and done project.
A positive DmC review? No wonder this one's just got under 500 likes. ^^
No, seriously, this is a fair review. I liked DMC1 when it came out (despite the most nightmarish enemy of the whole franchise: the camera), I hated DMC2 (because it sucked balls), DMC3 seemed to go in the right direction but turned out to be too damn hard for a filthy casual like me, and DMC4 was just... meh and didn't appeal to me. What they all had in common was a metric shit ton of cringe. OG Dante was such a cardboard cutout juvenile power fantasy and got showered with love by the fandom, but DmC's cringy, angsty Dante was considered sacrilege?
I vastly prefer the western take on the mythology, I love the art design, I like the level design (and I hate the design of the normal enemies, but hey, there's always something), I like the accessability. Since the first one, DMC hasn't worked for me, but this one did in spades. It's perfectly okay for reviewers to say the original series appeals more to their personal tastes, but DmC's been done dirty.
Hey, glad you enjoyed the video. DmC is a great game. I agree with the hypocrisy regarding Dante's character. He's more fleshed out in DmC, too imo. ✌️
You are truly among the underground, a haven of misfits with opinions that don't jump on bandwagons.
Um ur welcome i guess idk
I think DmC is one of the good games in the series we shouldn't be comparing as a game its good and fun
Its better than dmc1,2, 4 by a long shot and stands toe to toe with dmcv imo
I bought this game on 360 on release day when I was in high school, I now own and have beaten it on Xbox 360, PS3, Steam, Xbox Series X and PS5. I LOVE this game and will always be my top favorite DMC game.
Everyone that bitched about this game Just Looks Stupid Now. And we didn't get to see the full vision because of them and it still is Fuxking Amazing . Mundus is Amazing , everything feels personal and the They Live aspect is So Damn Cool . And seeing Vergil and Dante work together was amazing and it feels like a prequel more than a elseworlds story
I did enjoy the reboot although there were things I could've done without; One of those things being the infamous sniper rifle scene 😛😂.
Wait, the sniper rifle scene? The trade between Kat and Lillith? That bit?
@@EggOnBeansOnToast Yeah, that one
What was wrong with it?
@@EggOnBeansOnToast I just found it sorta gross. But other than that, I pretty much enjoyed NT's take on DMC
Ah, I get you. Understandable. Pretty grim. Thanks for clarifying 🙂👌
So refreshing to see DmC getting the respect it deserves. Props bro
Personally I wouldn't mind a sequel to this game but separate to the main series, I wanna see what NT can do with more weapons, better graphics and even an actual demon form for dantes DT (maybe something similar to mundus) and maybe they could even have Dante slowly evolve into more of his classic self with the humor, since reboot Dante still takes everything so seriously outside of the odd joke...maybe even an introduction of a reboot lady/Trish or even (since its a reboot they can do whatever) Lucia since she only appears in dmc2...It'd give something for even the reboots haters to like about it "I hate the dmc reboot but atleast it has lucia"
I do enjoy this game wish it didn't focus so hard on being a gritty reboot, story wise rating i give it a 3.5 out of 5. I like how this vergil is more open about his trauma and I like how in the dlc it looked like he was becoming more like his or vergil would have been cool to see his story progression open to closed off. While on vergil went from blinded by trauma to having his eyes opened. I didn't like this version of dante felt like they focused way to hard on making him the exact opposite of what he was and what every bit of edgy cinema. Thought was cool but I liked some things about him but it was mostly a nope from me maybe he would have been better in the sequels.
Oh but the opposite was for me. If anything it reminded me of 3 though if I were to compare that Dante in 3 was much edgier and on top of that cheesy as well.
I quite like this Dante but I admit I quite like Vergil's complex villainy in the reboot. He stands much apart than the predecessor which is surprising.
@@Lisa-em6vt true it is similar to three just felt that dante still had enough charisma to be likable but I still enjoyed the story
Hate me if you need to, but i love this DmC. The Combat feels awesome and since i played it, i discovered Combichrist for myself
Nah, you're good here, dude 👍
@@EggOnBeansOnToast awesome
There's a game in this genre from 2022 by name of Soulstice that has some combat inspirations from DmC: DMC (also DMC5 and Bayonetta). Tone and art direction is more like Darksiders, while the music is more like... distorted techno with choral elements.
Got some rough parts admittedly, like some enemy types and pacing, but it's well worth checking out.
Seven weapons total that have their own purposes and utility, for example. They'll always be available at any moment by just tapping a D-pad button (Left, Right and Up) once or twice.
Just over twenty different enemy types. There's about three stinkers but the rest range from "alright" to "fairly tough" and "pretty good!". In this vein, bosses are solid as well.
Plus, *really* good story and good writing.
Happy 10th anniversary for this game. It is a blast to play🥳
What a cool name!!
Good analysis too
Haha. Cheers bud. Appreciate it! Glad you enjoyed 🙂
I love the franchise. But the reboot managed to scratch an itch. It's too bad it got cut short.
I respectfully disagree with a few statements in this review, while I still like the game, I'll always prefer the main universe Dante (he has a lot more depth than you give him credit for, and a lot more depth than DmC dante). And the character themes from 5 are in my main playlist.
I absolutely hate the ending twist though, I liked Vergil and the ending felt like character assassination.
Oh, and I want DmC to coexist with the main series, like I said, I like the game
We all have our preferences, it's all good. I, in turn, respect yours. Thanks for watching.
came back to watch this awesome retrospective i got bored of starfield so i purchased dmc definitive for 7 bucks imagine this is what people thought was a bad game LOOOOOOOOL
Hey, glad you enjoyed the video. DmC is a great game!
This gs actually my 3rd favorite DMC game and was interesting in it when it was announced since I am a DMC fan and when I played it i actually loved it and had a blast with it and still do my only complaint is we won't get a sequel. All the games are silly and not serious and the gameplay in all of the games arg just so satisfying.
Closest thing to a DmC sequel that I can think of, gameplay-wise at least, is Soulstice from 2022.
Got some rough spots but can definitely recommend looking into it.
This game made me love hack and slash games. I got good enough to finish it's max difficulty back in 2013. I've recently picked it up again on steam and man did it feel good to play again (although I do find it strange that the definitive edition isn't on PC). Like hell this time around I'm actually having so much fun fighting the dream runners because I realized part of the key is to rush them and time your hits appropriately. you can smack them out of the air when they come out of that portal. I will say I'm kind of happy I missed most of the marketing back in the day and found it through an Xbox demo after playing devil may cry 4. Because that original trailer did not do the game any favors.
As a massive fan of the series, who initially hated the idea that the reboot existed, after giving it a try I actually really liked it. Yeah the writing is somewhat corny but after a while I kinda found it endearing in a way 😂. It may never happen but I wish there was a sequel to the reboot. Just keeping this and the original series separated
I think a rebooted series is fair. But would it sell to Capcom's standards?
@@EggOnBeansOnToast it depends on what the standards are, if they expect it to sell somewhat similar to the original series then it's a mistake. The reboot sold over 1.3 million copies which is not bad at all but I think Capcom was expecting around the 2 mil mark
I think it's too much of a risk for them, but I would always hope, regardless. It may even do far better than DmC. Only time will tell ✌️
Wish Phil would give Capcom the 💰 so Ninja Theory could make DmC 2 and maybe release it on Nintendo too, so Capcom would be more open to it.
My first dmc game to play
It's my favorite
Sorry but dmc5 is not my cup of tea same goes to 1 2 3 4 they didn't click with me
Fun fact reboot Dante look like me with out facial hair 😅
Thanks for sharing. I also like the first game but DmC wins overall for me, too ✌️
How 🔥HOT🔥 are you💖
Thus is my take I think Ninja theory made the best DMC combat system ever even comparing the newest one it is still the best to me it's so free it's the only way to explain it
I don't talk about the story because that is subjective subject so I won't mention it
But the characters wise Dante is my favourite character ever and I love him and I didn't hate this version of him I just thought it was a fun new take on him like an asshole version and I liked it this comes from a Huge Dante fan
Agree 100% 👍 🙆♂️
This is why PR is important, if NT never mess with the fans and be more humble, who knows this game might be seen differently. You always can say a disagreement in more polite way you know
They honestly had every right to. It wasn't their decision to make the changes that people were going over the top to cry about, they just teased the people complaining instead of taking it to heart, and the complainers did the opposite.
Like, be honest with yourself. Look at Dante in 3 and tell me he would exist outside a bar in Tokyo. Look at Dante in 4 and tell me he doesn't look like a gay cowboy with that tiny head.
It's not like they could talk shit about Capcom and say 'yeah wasn't our intention, blame Capcom', they'd never get work again lol
They were sent death threats.
And sorry but those "fans" have been disrespectful and have been living proof of dying internet media literacy since early 2010.
They've notoriously pointed that NT is homophobic, all the while hypocritically saying reboot Dante is gay.
The infamously misread presentation about them crying "Oh Ninja Theory is saying Dante is gay" is actually talking about the word Western.
And what's more, the presentation itself is ABOUT REBOOT Dante.
...so in a way, the presenter himself have been joking THEIR reboot Dante is probably gay.
But the haters willfully ignored and misread everything. And I bet you they won't even bother researching it. It's publicly available btw
@@stinkfinga4918 reboot Dante looks like he just came back from a pride parade
I have complex feelings about this game the same way I do about the 1998 Godzilla movie. It'll probably like that 'til the end of days.
First Devil may Cry game I ever played and easily in my top 3 along with DMC 3 and 5, I understand why people don’t like it, because it’s cringe and gritty and not as “fun” as the others but to me that’s what it’s supposed to be, it doesn’t take itself seriously, in fact it constantly leans into the cringe. I would love a sequel to this game however I don’t think it’ll happen which dose make me sad, but maybe if we can get five then we can get a sequel to this one, and maybe just maybe devils, do actually cry
I feel like the main reason why people really hated this game is that it represented an existential threat to the old dmc games. Imo, knowing capcom's weird thinking of making their games more western back then, if the game was popular enough, it would have replaced the mainline series. I feel like people would have been way less angry if both series could have just coexisted.
I personally like this game, it's actually what got me into devil may cry in the first place, just kind of sucks it had to be a dmc reboot instead of like a spinoff or something.
Exactly. I hear it all the time. The threat that this interpretation would be how it is going forward. I completely understand it.
The game is awesome, regardless imo. Thanks for your comment 🙂
I come back here for both the humor and an honest review of this game. And a positive one at that🎉
I agree with you that this game's soundtrack is the best in the series and Combichrist gained a new fan when I beat this game.
Yeah the battle and boss themes in the other games are great but I feel like the music in this game truly added to its overall experience and personality
Yeah, the music is killer. There are little nods to the original game, which I like, but the original OST is just great. Thanks for commenting.
This is one of those times when "fans" of the hobby let us all down. The backlash at Ninja Theory was disgusting and what makes it a hundred times worse is that "DmC" isnt bad... Far from it... It's one of the best entries.
Totally agree
Yes 💯
I will always love this game
Same
Definitely the most polarizing game in the series. It's not my favourite one, because the colour coded enemies, lack of a lock on and being 30 fps really soured things for me. And while yes, the definitive edition fixed those, for me the damage was already done. The lack of taunting and the much smaller move list also hurt it for me.
Saying that though, I still had plenty of fun with game. Aquila is my favourite among the weapons in the game. It has a spin to win and those are always fun. Plus the nightclub level was bonkers and by far the best level in the game in my opinion. Another plus was being able to try out a new move before you bought it and having that carry over into 5 was by far the best thing that 5 took from the reboot.
As for the characters and writing, I wasn't really a fan. There were some parts that got a slight chuckle out of me, but those were few and far between. Plus, Dante's snarkyness felt a little too forced at times. I don't really have any examples of what I mean by that since I haven't played it in years. As for Vergil, I really didn't like him. He seemed, I dunno, whiney at times. He didn't have that same intimidating presence that OG Vergil has.
Turning Mundus into an evil business man was pretty funny though and Bob Barbas had some great interactions with Dante in the boss fight.
As for Kat though, I have zero opinion or her. She was honestly pretty forgettable to me.
So in conclusion, while I had a lot fun with DmC, I am so happy the OG DMC is back. I missed my wacky woohoo pizza man. And while I wouldn't be against a sequel to the reboot, I would much rather Capcom remade Devil May Cry 2 so they can fix all of the issues with it and give the combat system of 3, 4 and 5.
Hey, I appreciate this level-headed response. I'm happy you enjoyed parts of it, at least. And a remake to 2 seems like a good warranted idea.
@@EggOnBeansOnToast When it comes to action games, I'm usually pretty easy to please. If DmC was a new IP I, and likely many other Devil May Cry fans would have liked it a lot more.
Finally someone who loves this game just as much as me
I shall definitely try it now...
Danny my man this video is about to become 10k and after all these years.
It's both a sad state regarding haters, but also I feel like so many are just coming around because haters and their sh1t online are just toxic😂
DmC gg💯
Thanks, buddy. I'm glad to be a part of the "opposition" and highlight this game's strengths, as well as its weaknesses. It's not a perfect game, but it sure is entertaining 😀
@@EggOnBeansOnToast Yaahh good game🎮🔥
It's 10k now😭💛 So happy for Danny
Best DMC ever made. Great story and characters, amazing mission design and the soundtrack is beyond insane. Only the combat isn't quite as deep as it should've been.
My fave dante design is DMC2, my fave from the series is DMC 3 and DmC. Haven't tried V, DmC made me lost appetite to the original and i'm still desperately waiting for this game's sequel, or at least a spiritual successor from NT.
Finally, even how much i like the original dmc, i prefer music on dmc reboot more and levels on dmc reboot is actually better compared to original.
I played the reboot just to experience how bad it is (i actually hated it when i try to played it). But throughout midgame i realized, its actually a great game with just a Devil May Cry's title name!!
With the new dmc 5 been created, it might make me forgive the reboot. But now, i didn't mind if Ninja Theory make a sequel but as long its a parallel universe.
It's always been a parallel universe. It's been its own continuity from the start.
I particularly never understood how vitriolic the hatred is for this game. When all of the first four games have been so different from one another.
And so inconsistent anyway from the very beginning.
DMC overall was not much on Capcom's eyes, which is unfair. Trying to reboot it had been both a business and artistic endeavor.
And despite being its only title DmC manages to at least have a semblance of a cohesive timeline and narrative.
DMC has been vague, has non-canon and retconned stuff.
DMC overall as a franchise really is just a combat game.
That's it's best merit, aside from a fantasy machismo character that's also notoriously been retconned via DMC 3 because of Reuben Langdon.
I do understand DMC has potential to be deep, but that's not its point nor its goal, which is too bad.
I like it it was just different 2 the one's that went b4 !.
No doubt, gameplay is on point. Story is ehhhhhhhhh, characters are meh, mundus wasn’t even that much of a threat
Good level design, and I liked the bargas boss fight.
And the music?
@@EggOnBeansOnToast it fits the attitude of the game, although no track in particular can immediately come to mind
Ah. The music is one of my personal favourite things about the game. Thanks for taking the time to comment 🙂
And mundus in the og was a threat bro be serious we see him at the very end
