    One thing I liked is how you noticed how a lot of bosses "reminded you of Nelo Angelo" when its all but confirmed that he was Vergil (Under the control pf Mundus) and any similar fights are either because they used Nelo as a "Baseline" (Proto Angelos in 5, and the Angel Soldiers in 4), or because Vergil and Dante cause that much of a ripple in the storyline
    That and fights that are like PvP are cool af

  • @espurrseyes42

    Another note on Nero DT: While it doesn't have Poise in 4 (pretty sure it does in 5), it DOES cancel whatever animation you're doing on activation while also giving you some iFrames. Whereas Dante's doesn't interrupt whatever he was doing at the time of activation. This can be used to do things like invul through the start of that big AoE attack Agnus does before using well-timed Table Hoppers to dodge through the rest of it.

    • @book1840
      @book1840 10 днів тому +2

      DMC4 Nero's DT does stagger/launch enemies up in the air upon activation just like neutral DT in 5.
      It's actually the best/quickest way to create an opening for buster on elite enemies like Frost and Angelos. While also help stun bosses faster than other moves. It also stop bosses' charge/grab attacks as well.

    Dmc 3 is hard, but it always feels really fair and less demanding than 1. If you have the switch version you can play in free sryle mode and play as LORE ACCURATE DANTE and are able to switch between all 4 styles and every gun and devil arm you currently have.
    Swordmaster is how you unlock Dante's coolest moves and decimate every enemy's health dignity.
    Gunslinger lets you eviscerate foes with stylish ranged options.
    Trickster opens Dante's third eye and dark Souls dodging skills as well as unlocks the ability to quote fist of the north star by teleporting ABOVE your enemies at level 3 and shouting "Death from above".
    Then while I would say Royal Guard bends every enemy over and nsfw's them, the style revolves around TAKING hits by perfectly blocking them to TAKE 0 DAMAGE and save the pain for your enemies with a release. Royal Release is just same day shipping for that pain.
    Quicksilver is Dante quoting JoJo's for shits and giggles.
    Doppelganger lets you spit roast everything with your wide array of devils arms. By locking yourself into a move with a long animation and summoning Doppel to do something on another button you can obliterate whole rooms. Try using Kalina Ann's hysterics then switch to Doppel and have 'im rock out on neavan with her only non-swordmaster crazy combo and you have a killer room nuke.
    Also you can CHARGE Dante's activation of Devil Trigger by holding the button to EXPLODE ON RELEASE. THIS IS YOUR STRONGEST ATTACK AND KILLING 3 TO 4 FODDER DEMONS WITH IT YOU GET AN INSTANT SSS RANK. ALL YOU NEED TO UNLOCK THIS POWER IS AT LEAST 1 PURPLE ORB AND WITH ALL 7 DANTE IS A WALKING ATOM BOMB.
    Btw almost every boss is weak to Cerberus.
    The only exceptions are hell vanguards who're weak to beowulfe,
    there's also Jester, Rudra, Vergil, Beowulfe and Arkham who have NO elemental weakness,
    Heart of Leviathan who's weak to Neavan,
    Cerberus who is weak to Agni and Rudra,
    and then there's Doppelganger who's weak to beowulfe.
    No joke, Gigapede, Agni, Neavan, Gheryon if it vaguely has fire or lightning it's weak to Cerberus.

    DMC5 is my game of the decade for the 2010's by a wide margin, but my main criticism of it is that Son of Sparda should have been the default difficulty. The difficulty of DMC1 and DMC3 is partially what made those games so addictive back in the day.

      I still got my ass kicked on some mission of the first playthrough of DMC 5 in Devil Hunter.
      And I am still getting it even more kicked now in sons of sparda.
      I recently did DMC 3 cerberus thinking I'd kick its ass. I beat it after 5 try, but that was because it did a forward dash attack, which I didn't dodge during phase 1. But it took so long to walk back that I was able to make it go 10% before it got to phase 2.
      It felt cheap.
      Anyway, i'm a sucker for Hard games as I challenge runs elden ring and Sekiro. (And not trivial ones. Stuff like +0 and rl1, 1AP, deathless... )
      Anyway, I think dmc 5 maybe should have had Sons of Sparda available for players of the franchise, Devil Hunter for complete newbs to the series (and action game in general lol) but still want a challenge and Human for those who are just that bad.

      agree but I wouldn't think making it a default difficulty is a good idea, but make it one of the starting choice would be great.
      One big problem with DMC series that ended up with reboot is due to how niche it is. Back when playing DMC3, I couldn't even beat first mini boss for countless attempt, doing that now with a more casual market will result losing in market share despite those players might like the game. Make it easier early on but harder later hit just the right spot to bring more casual players into this amazing genre

    Hearing this guy beat vergil with strategy in dmc3 got me tweaking. I always beat vergil by trying to damage him out of his DT, which if you didn't know, if you do more damage than he had before DT, his DT will cancel and go back to base.
    it makes the fight so much better because this is usually only possible using DT, which means you kind of DT clash against him like in the dmc5 vergil M20 fight. Instant cool points.

    As far as we know, Capcom developed DMC 2 almost right after DMC 1 to capitalize on the success.
    But they didn't even re-engage the DMC 1 dev team, didn't give the new team any references from the old game, the dev team was inexperienced with 3d games (the team came from the Arcade department of Capcom) and I think the unknown main dev didn't even like the Resident Evil-esque vision of DMC 1.
    I believe that only the Stinger animation was done around the time the unknown main dev left.
    Then comes the goat Hideaki Itsuno, and the rest is history.

      Despising DMC 2's difficulty equals the same rant on DMC 3 DMD as "hOw CaN yOu DiE oN dMd If EnEmIeS aRe WeAk" from the guy who only played Easy/Normal. Though, if you TRY to play DMC 2 on DMD as DMC, you will find yourself in more trouble than you can think about. Sure, regular arenas are just annoying by the waves of enemies and, mostly, the tedious stun system (yes, the one you see in DMC 3, 4, 5 is inherited from DMC 2), but bosses, hoo... aside Chopper, Jokatgulm, Oranguewhatthehellisthisname, Moth, Trismagia, Arius, the rest bosses are actually... fun. Seriously. Bosses require you to adapt and here's why:
      1. Infested Tank/Chopper - the game hints you to hit the eye, by showing it in the first place, hitting the eye boosts the damage by 3-4 times.
      2. Nefasturris (forgot the name, just a building) - kick jump, flying heart flex and climb on his head, ice & chrono heart to slow him down.
      3. Furiataurus - unironically teaches you to dodge by punishing both aggressive (rushing in blind with a sword) and passive (standing far away and mashing shoot button) styles of playing.
      4. Bolverk - my man is having a huge sword and Nelo Angelo's fighting style, basically, the first exam on how you dodge and adapt, either choice of hearts will work, but recommended to use a quick one for mobility.
      5. Pluton- (that one guy with big balls made out of steel, really) - same principle as Bolverk, but slower and more focused on not leaving in the same place.
      6. Phantom - worse version of DMC 1 boss, nothing to say.
      7. Argosax - well...
      8. The Despair Embodied - again, WITHOUT hesitation, I have to say, one of the best bosses in DMC, if IT had been added in either 3, 4 or 5, IT would have become the hardest boss, and that's not even a joke, as it may look like. Blud literally transforms the "mashy mashy gun shooter" into DMC even on Normal difficulty, being the first, if not the second, the third... the over 10+th death for all people going through DMC for the first time, even with 3, 4, 5 experience. This (wo)man will ignore your chrono heart like nothing, IT has 2 styles (man - fast and woman - with delay) of attacking and you have to actually pay attention to ITS body before IT teleports, has projectiles, has "acid rain" prototype, performs combos, shoots fireballs, on DMD IT'S not standing in place, always in motion, making you feel really dizzy. I must say, after beating IT, Vergil 3 will look more comfortable to play against, sure, you will die again, but at least your vestibular system will be fine.

    It’s so interesting to see the perspective of a noob.
    I wonder how the list would look if he started with a different game. Or course this can apply to any since you are a stranger only once.
    Tbh I’m surprised he even made a “deaths” video. I don’t remember death playing these outside the obvious Hell and Hell/DMD attempts. Modes made for players who are familiar since they take a long time to unlock.
    In my experience DMC1 has to be the hardest one, easily. It’s the game people give up on since Yellow orbs are checkpoints loading… and if you’re even more of a noob you could run out and now would repeat THE ENTIRE CHAPTER.
    Also it was cool to hear insane opinions. Like DMC DMC Vergil>>>>every boss from D1 to D4.
    Text doesn’t have emotion, but hearing that made me… HAPPY! I love unique takes. Even if it turns into an NPC opinion of “DMC3 Vergil/DMC5 Cavalry Angelo” after more exploration.

    Dmc1, I'm biased because HAVE YOU TRIED GETTING A SPECIAL BONUS ON STAGE 1 NORMAL DIFFICULTY FROM A FRESH SAVE!?!?
    In case you haven't, you need to beat the stage with 0 damage and 400 red orbs in under 6 minutes. There aren't enough orbs or secret caches to get by without killing enemies and you need to do so [STYLISH]-ly. And I mean you need to get lucky with enemy spawns to have red marionettes spawn because they're the tankiest and drop the most orbs, as well as get an S rank to get the most orbs. You lose your ranking in 2 seconds of not hitting something and with only 3 combos, high times, helm splitter and your guns which don't maintain style, that's harder than ANY OTHER DMC. You also can't get any new moves because they're locked behind Alastor in mission 2 with your devil trigger and the shotgun.
    I also forgot that you have to reset from a fresh save file EVERY TIME you fail and get hit, take too long or don't gather enough orbs.

    @senpafl4405 9 днів тому

    One thing I always loved about the series is how the game expects you to tactically use your super mode (Devil Trigger). Most action games are very sparse with the amount of energy they give for your super mode, as it's supposed to be used in a pinch. If you follow this principle in DMC, you'll get your arse kicked when going for those S-Ranks.
    DMC 1: The main strategy is the game is to find: 1. The enemies weak point/attack they are weak against and 2. Find a way to fill up the DT gauge and rip into your enemies. DMD is basically impossible to complete with abusing the hell out of your DT at every opportunity.
    DMC 3: Increase the stylish rank, weaken the enemies, increase your DT gauge and then, when you can hit the enemies the best, that is when you trigger DT explosion. That is how you have to play DMD, otherwise you never get more than a B-Rank.
    DMC 4: For Nero, you can use the DT as a defensive tool, as its activation nets you a short amount of I-frames and it's great for crowd control due to its stun capacities. And for Dante it is essential for mobility and high level gameplay and combos to master your DT (Guard Flying!!). And obviously the healing capabilities.
    DMC 5: V is unplayable without DT in DMD or HaH due to his pets dying and DT reviving them and keeping them alive, so getting DT as much as possible is a must. Dante can use the energy to go SDT and wipe out entire rooms in seconds. For Nero, you get to grab two enemies at once, improving CC and damage output.

    • @firehedgehog1446
      @firehedgehog1446 9 днів тому

      On top of your point about DMC3's DMD, that game gives you Super Dante by completing Very Hard, which means you could use Super Dante to go ham with DT in DMD mode with no consequences (By that I mean the game doesn't penalize your score for using it) (That is if you're an actually SANE person! & not one of those chest hair addicts who absolutely must make the game as difficult as they possibly can to prove that they're all hardcore & manly as if it's a badge of honor)

    • @Noctis37
      @Noctis37 9 днів тому

      V has infinite dodge using shadow and griffin's has long i-frames. And despite being able to attack from a distance, he's meant to fight mid range so the pets can position themselves near the enemy. You can still bully a proto angelo with V just like with the other characters.

    DMC 3 special edition was the first time i ever gave the games a chance bc i was like 16-17 with my mom at a thrift shop and it was one of like 4 games for ps2 the place had and was 5 bucks. I died, A LOT. I legit was soft locked at mission 3 bc i just could NOT kill that damn cerberus so i gave up on it. Then a little while later i had graduated from high school, i was living on campus at college, and i had alot of free time to kill and had played all my other games to death, so i decided hey i have high speed internet for the first time in my life, lemme look up some stuff for this game and once i realized i was legit playing on hard mode bc it was mislabeled , i was like ok, time to grind the first two missions for health upgrades and weapon upgrades for like two days straight lol. my first playthrough i think i legit had something like 150k red orbs by the time i fought agni and rudra bc i learned that ill need to repeat all the missions from the start 5-10 times in a row before moving onto the next one

    I can with confidence say that dmc3 dmd at first seems really difficult, and it would be if not for the super dante costume with which you can power through rooms of enemies. The only difficult fights for me are Beowulf and Vergil v3 as well as arkham. dmc2 dmd is nothing special until you get to the mission where you need to fight tris magia and the dude with wolves. I had to use trish and spam devil stars to defeat tris magia. Dmc5 i haven't gotten to dmd yet but i guess it's easy for missions where you don't play as V, and dmc1 beat my ass on normal more times that dmc3 and dmc2 ever did so i'm kinda avoiding playing it.

    DmC and DMC 5 shares a mechanic: enemies cannot start their aggressive attack phase if they are not in camera's view... to me: it's a stupid as shit mechanic and shouldn't be there since if I see an enemy and this guy goes off-screen for a second I should at least keep him in the back of my mind and jump randomly to avoid the possible threat... this is handholding
    anyway... fuck DmC, and it's lack of a decent lock on feature and shit mechanics and lack of directional inputs

    • @platinumconquest2365
      @platinumconquest2365 3 дні тому

      This mechanic was also present in DMC's 3 & 4. You can test this by either finding a restrictive camera angle facing a wall, or using mods that reduce the FOV. If enemies are not on screen, they will not attack you.
      I believe the only games in the franchise that didn't have this mechanic were DMC1 and maybe also DMC2.
      You may not have noticed because DMC's 3 & 4 had enemies that were more aggressive when they were on screen.
