I love that his moveset has remained almost entirely unchanged for 10 years. A few moves got fleshed out by the power of newer engines but ultimately its the same thing. You can see it as him moving closer to perfecting what he is good at, while Dante you basically have to relearn every game.
@damsen978 Have you played any DMC game besides DMC3 and 5? Dante doesn't even have the Rebellion in DMC1, he starts with the Force Edge, which becomes the Sparda. He then also grabs Alestor and Ifrit, both of which only appear in DMC1. In DMC 2 he has the Rebellion for the first time (in order of release) and also has Vendetta and Merciless, two swords that also never appear again In 3 he picks up Nevan and Agni and Rudra, which are never seen again, and Beowulf and Cerberus. The former is never used by Dante ever again, and neither is the latter though a better version of the same idea pops up later. In DMC 4 Dante gets Gilgamesh and Lucifer, and while Gilgamesh's basic idea gets carried over to DMC5 neither weapon actually does. Finally, in DMC5, Dante gets the Sparda back, and gets the Devil Sword Dante as basically an upgraded version of the Rebellion. He picks up better Cerberus and Balrog as a better Gilgamesh, but also picks up Cavalier. Overall, in 5 games Dante uses 17 different melee weapons, but I could see that technically argued down to 14. Meanwhile Vergil has only every had 3 melee weapons. Dante also equips 12 total different firearms.
He's not wrong in that Dante does retain more than half of his moves throughout the series. There's DMC1 Dante (and Nelo Angelo), and then there's post-2 Dante who always has e&i, c-α, a greave (Ifrit is still my favorite), a Rebellion or sub (1's moveset descended to Dante, Vergil, and Trish), wacky guns and weapons, and 4 styles + bonus. You do have to learn new weapons and moves but it's part of the charm 🧿 and depth. Personally I like Trish and Vergil the best because they remind me of dmc1 Dante's moveset the most, and BtL is such a power trip it's impossible to not feel good playing as V Vergil
3: He was a lot clunkier to play 4: Got a little easier to play with it didn't feel like he was wearing Lead Boots 5: I AM THE STORM THAT IS APPROACHING
@@ryanfarrelly4647 Understandable since DMC4’s biggest issue is that virtually every enemy was designed with Nero’s snatch ability in mind. Makes playing as anyone that isn’t Nero a slog
More like 3: He was fairly balanced yet still powerful enough to style with. 4: He went way off the deep end with instant judgement cuts, a level 3 charge with Beowulf, Spiral swords that dont vanish after firing more. Insane movement trick mechanics and a sword rain that stuns everyone. 5: He he. We will make him even more broken by giving him more nuke moves like Judgement cut end and 3 different devil triggers.
Vergil is the perfect example of what trauma, loneliness, and a sense of abandonment can do to a person. No amount of power he acquires can fill the void in his heart created on that day as a child.
@@sipenarekbecha7193 DMC4 DLC (as in the two cutscenes of Vergil walking in and then out of Fortuna city) are EXTREMELY OBVIOUSLY before DMC3. So DMC3 happens like a year after that shit, and then we all know 5 is the latest
DMC4 just had better VFX in general, like they were straight out of your favourite shounen anime. There's mods to try and make them look like DMC4 but it doesn't hit the same.
When it comes to all 3 interations of the Judgement Cut in all of it's appearences i'll forever have a soft spot for the one in DMC 3. Idk why but the sound it does when it goes off is just pleasure to my ears.
The best is 3, Vergil's skill with the katana is noticeable, but his inflated ego is also noticeable. His lack of aptitude with his demonic power and his simple but effective blows... Playable Vergil in 3 is the exact Vergil of the story, the only moment that Vergil had an advantage over Dante before the fruit in DMC5, and even then after that he returned to stay behind Dante. Playing with him at 3, his ability to subdue almost everything becomes clear. These details in DMC3 are insane... If Vergil fought with as many demons and trained his skills as Dante, with the fruit he would become God... or rather, the devil himself.
Eh true, I like how the combos of his being much more aggressive than Dante's. Which you can turn him as a aggressive combo machine with right stuff if I remember?
Uhh, I don't think the movesets in DMC obey real world physics like that. I mean...last time I checked, people don't float in place when they shoot a firearm or swing a weapon around while in mid-air.
The audio levels are VERY spiky in this video. When showing them each individually, it's too quiet. But when showing all three it once it's DEAFENINGLY loud.
4's art style always seemed a bit extra stylized to me, very Caucasoid with large bodies and limbs. Not surprised that Bayonetta was likely developed by teams in contact with each other
2:10 alone the effects and his coat in DMC4 are way cooler! Everything sounds in DMC4 more aggressive, and "punchy". Love the art work in DMC4! Photorealistic graphics are sometimes not always "better". DMC4 has a unique "style". And I love it. But overall 5 is the better game, no doubt. 7:18 here you can clearly see all the SFX and VFX of Vergils weapons in DMC4. Moves like "Lunar Phase" in DT feeling more powerful and it goes even for a bit longer the whole move. Overall every move Vergil does in DMC4 feels more aggressive and sounds more "punchy". Thats why there are some mods for DMC5 where you can have all the DMC4 SFX and VFX, his voice lines and even his look from 4! Give me all the new moves from 5 and add them to 4 and im happy. :D
DMC3 is the first game in Dantes timeline but not in Vergil's if you play as vergil in DMC 4 you are playing before Neros birth, women in red is Neros mother
To me, the best design was 4, 3 is the most iconic, but 5 just fckd up the hair and gave him a way too stranger jaw but hes attire in 5 is definetely a better outfit than the other ones
Anyone else feel like dmc 5 vergil's sounds are just so lackluster, like mirage edge and yamato feel like they have no impact in 5. Even the summoned swords, idk why they toned it down so much it felt so good in 4.
I'm not the biggest fan of vergil apperance & styling in DMC5, I think my favorite is of DMC4, ironically the only game of the 3 that he makes no cannon appearance in the story.
Vergil looked so young in DMC3. A real teenager. In DMC4 he looks a bit older, even DMC4 Vergil is younger than DMC3 Vergil.I also like his Outfit way more in 3&4.
The one in 3 still feels the most powerful to me, has the most force. The one in 4 feels like dancing somehow, while 5 is in between, not so dedicated to using the most force. My most favorite is 3.
3SE got the best moveset, nothing will ever top Aerial Rave & Rising Sun (& Upper Slash) 4SE movement was the greatest improvement, LOOK HOW FAST HE IS (I genuinely wish 3SE rapid slash and 4SE rapid slash were 2 different moves) 5SE would’ve been peak Vergil if he had 3SE moveset (plus the Devastation moves)
Dmc4 is good Gameplay and mechanics in dmc5 is above anything on the planet. But dmc3 is such a polished game in every aspect even to todays standards that i still think its the top one
Vergil really should have had his own campaign even if it was just a few levels like in DmC. Just playing him in a non-canon playthrough doesn't do him justice.
I have to say Dmc 3 Vergil moves set is still the best for me. He does quick and powerful katana slashes with ease. He also slashes with yamato looks more stylish in 3. They feel like they have more impact with the sound design, the slash effects and instantly make light enemies fly like leaves. In 4 and 5 his yamoto moves lost the power impact even though they are faster. I miss yamoto back plus attack, attack. Such a cool attack animation. He also sheathed yamoto cooler in dmc3 if watch his attack animations.
Funfact about 3, Vergil's taunt is infinite. If you taunt and just don't do anything, your DT will infinitely build, provided there are enemies in the vicinity.
anyone can tell me anything but dmc3 vergil was definitely the best looking after all he was the youngest version he looks way better than dmc4 and dmc5 vergil.
I know DMC4 is technically the youngest, but I swear, the face model looks to be a similar age to a DMC4 Dante. This would be a complain, but I prefer it this way to be consistent with his brother.

Looking back at DMC4, it looked so good for it's time, given it was made 2007 and remastered for 2015 on ps4 it holds up
"Anyway I like the flying move of sin dt", it's kinda like useful for breaking urizen shield , breaking the legs of Gilgamesh and chasing Artemis.
