About to play through the DMC games 1-4. I've played 3 and 4 quite a bit but only made it through half of 1 as a kid and never touched 2. Just figured I'd ask some questions before I started.
>DMC 1
-is there anything like cancelling combos or neat ways to break the game in the name of cuhrayzee?
>DMC 2
-same as the question for DMC 1
-is this game even worth playing? I've heard it was complete garbage but that was before DmC came out and maybe put it into perspective
9c83f9 No.13824138
DMC2 is easy as shit, but I'd say it's worth a playthrough on whatever the hardest default difficulty is. Even DMD mode is pathetic. I wouldn't go out of my way to obtain a copy, but if you have the HD collection, there is no reason not to give it a whirl.

>is there anything like cancelling combos or neat ways to break the game
Slash-canceling can be done with a quick analog rotation, it lets you reset your initial slash twice as quickly as normal.
Jump-canceling is possible with the shotgun.
If you're a pussy you'll make your way through the game by grenade-rolling, which is the granddaddy of the Kilgore Glitch.
You're not going to need most of this until Dante Must Die! anyway, and even then you should try to go without it.
>is this game even worth playing?
If only so you can tell other people that it isn't, sure.

DMC1 has the best atmosphere and style out of the franchise, it's a beautiful game that still looks great and even watching the cutscenes you can tell that a lot of love went into it.
The controls are unlike DMC3, it's a slower game that clearly inherits some stuff from its RE roots, its fun and challenging but it also ain't no DMC3. My personal favorite of the series. Also Dante is a pretty cool alpha dude and his character makes numales feel uncomfortable.

Sounds like 2 is worth playing one way or another.
And I appreciate the tips on 1. Might stay away from gernade rolling for at least one play through if it's that op, but that slash/jump cancelling sounds neat.

For sure. It's where the best parts of RE 3.5 went, the rest went to haunting ground which I hear isn't to shabby either.

There was actually this Podcast that got Ruben Langdon on. He talks about how when he was doing the recording for the DMC anime the dubbing company was actually getting shut down, they were just doing one take on everything, so he would intentionally mess up on bad takes so they were unusable to get them to let him do a better take.
Most of Dante's lines in the anime were probably Ruben just reading the line to get a feel for it and he was going to do a better second take, but they used the his first crummy one instead.

1 is pretty challenging, but a not-insignificant portion of that challenge comes from resident evil camera angles. Getting cuhrazy happens to a lower degree than 3 or 4 but IIRC you can break a combo by using your gun
2 suffers from some level design issues and reduced difficulty, but has a pretty cool last boss. Story-wise a number of people were upset about Dante's characterization: he decides to help based on the flip of a coin, but in a clever twist it's double-headed.

I see the anime as depicting Dante's avarage day to day demon hunting, which would be far more boring and easy compared to his adventures in the games.
It takes place after DMC1 so he has already surpassed Sparda by this point. Things would be pretty boring for him until he has mid life crisis and becomes a crazy cool uncle in DMC4.

It felt pretty comfy watching him just go on his regular everyday life. Some episodes like Rock Queen and Death Poker were really great standalones.

DMC2 is one of the few times when people really aren't exaggerating. It's a horrible game. I played all 4 games in a row back when the HD Collection came out, so I'm not speaking from childhood memories. If you do play it, you'll see the beginnings of things that were done way better in DMC3, such as Trickster wall running and Gunslinger twosome time. You'll also hear brand new sound effects that were abandoned, probably because the game did so poorly that Capcom didn't want people to remember anything about it during DMC3.

Every move is useful, really. Get Stinger as soon as possible, obviously, as well as Air Hike. Air Raid and Vortex are pretty overpowered but still very useful, especially if you're trying to beat a timer. Round Trip is the least useful ability but is very useful against the final boss' final form.
The only one of Ifrit's abilities that's not amazing is Meteor. The others are must-buy as soon as you can afford them, especially Inferno and Kick 13. Rolling Blaze is also useful against Griffon's second form.

If you want accurate results then the software mode in PCSX2 should fix most issues. The hardware renderer has a bunch of bugs and performance bottlenecks which make it looks weird and slow down on certain scenes.
RPCS3 is shaping up nicely with DMC HD collection running well enough. You'll need to wait a while for DMC3 to be playable though. Currently it freezes randomly which pretty much makes it unplayable.

1 and 2 are the best ones, I don't remember if you can cancel combos and break shit in 1 but in 2 you can and 2 honestly has more fun combat in my opinion but the two games are a little different in terms of combat and atmosphere anyway so it's purely subjective. I'd definitely recommend playing them especially if you hate the atmosphere and Dante in later games. 1 felt more like a blend of Dino Crisis and Resident Evil while 2 felt more like Ninja Gaiden this is going off my own memory years and years back though so keep that in mind

Well Patty would be far older by the time DMC4 happens. Part of me thinks shes near Nero's age depending on how far after the anime DMC4 takes place.

I've played most games on this list and it seems like it was actually made to prove our points (meaning us who say current video games are shit), you goddamn redditors from hell.
I'll admit there are a few decent titles on the lower ports/remakes part (nothing special), but most of the titles in the upper list are shit. Some are absolute irredeemable trash. Echo and Project Nimbus, seriously?

Empty Hero made himself a decent little series. He left out the parts of DMC4 being half finished and didn't put enough emphasis on the lack of a lock-on in DmC, but not bad.

Onions taste fine, but it's just weird to bite into a chunk of one. That's why all the examples of onions used in food have it mixed into the food in the form of powder, rather than being individual pieces (except onion rings, of course).

It has to be sliced extremely thin. Nothing is worse than chewing a thick chunk of mushroom on pizza.

I played through the whole trilogy about two months ago on the 360.
DMC1: Starts off Resi like with light puzzle elements, later more streamlined with annoying backtracking. Fighting is pretty restricted by the camera, the re-spawning enemies are frustrating and they recycle a lot of bosses. Still a decent game with a good story.
DMC2: Completely streamlined, very short, enemy designs don't quite fit the rest of the game (tanks and shit) and the camera angles were just pissing me off constantly. Felt rushed like hell.
DMC3: Here is where the fun starts. Bigger environments, more enemy variety, more puzzles and a fluid fighting system that just rocks. Also the upgrades are fun, Devil Trigger doesn't feel tacked on, going for the higher combo ratings is encouraged and the story /presentation goes full out. Highly recommended.

This is great, I played my at the time roomate's copy of this launch day and laughed our asses off at this DLC more than we did the main game.
How do you even manage to create a character as unlikable as Nu-Vergil? Donte was bad but even for how shit the game was he manged to become tolerable by the end, Vergin on the other hand was a Spoiled Rich Boy who hid behind his Secret Club the entire game and was just an overall coward who literally killed a unborn baby before the mother for no reason other than to be edgy and when nobody agreed with his batshit Ideals at the end literally went through mental gymnastics in DLC form to justify everything he just did. He's like Gabriel Belmont but with Zero redeeming traits.

Does it get that bad really fast?
I've only been playing for a week and only 4 hours at max per day, I can't believe pros/speedrunners get fucked so fast.
Maybe it's because I've not played anything that was truly intensive on my arms in months, and even then it was god hand, which outside of moving the right stick it's not that much of a button mashing game when you get experienced at it.

Usually when I get pains like that in my arms whats helps me is I start working out, but if you don't want to spend money on some dumbbells just do some push ups, and start stretching yours arms, wrists and hands.

Take this with as much salt as you like but someone leaked DMC 5 news

If this shit is true then that means there is less of a chance that Itsuno's game is being shown at PSX and now we have to wait until E3.
I know it's not Itsuno's fault, but this would mean I'v been blue balled about this announcement for a year now.

Use Ifrit, and use charged punches. With a full Devil Trigger you can have that bitch dead in about twenty seconds. If you haven't bought Rolilng Blaze, buy it, it's the best way to deal with the worms and with his side-spear attack.
If you've already broken his orbs in the first two fights you've made things more difficult so yourself, and there's no way to fix it, but using Air Raid is a safe way to deal damage from a distance, especially during the green orb version of the laser attack.
989d5c No.13882211
>>13882147
I broke his orb in the first two fights. Also, right after that last post I beat him in a surprising way. I did the Nelo Angelo fight, took out a quarter of his health then didn't have to worry about hitting the circle and could focus on wailing into him. Dunno why people recommend avoiding that fight.
b9a4e6 No.13882225
>>13882211
Do they? The repeat fights aren't that tough, they're always one difficulty setting lower than whatever you're on. It's probably because on Normal mode it takes longer to go in and do the repeat fight instead of just fighting Nightmare normally.
989d5c No.13882242
>>13882225
yeh, and that Nelo is particularly easy so it's crazy to see all the guides and tips recommending to avoid him.
also, as a quick side note, does Sparda do anything good? Feels like a worse version of Alastor.
b9a4e6 No.13882265
>>13882242
It has longer reach and slightly higher base damage than Alastor, and otherwise has the same moveset, excluding the DT moves. It has a different DT moveset which is only available on a specific mission. And you'll have to use it on the final boss anyway, so I hope you can make peace with it.
