Dante because he is Al Dente

The one with dark clothing

I can't get fucking used to the Dante sword, it just changed some imputs but my stupid brain just want to play it like Rebellion and i end up fucking up all my combos

>>16240175

And that busted face. And that disgusting voice. And that annoying personality.

Dante because I really like the Cavaliere, but I really dislike V because shadow usually spawns in extremely retarded places and fucks up my directional input or or does the anti-air triangle combo against a ground target instead. It's a great idea and it feels amazing when it works out, but I don't feel 100% in charge the same way I do when I'm playing Nero or Dante.

>Who's your favorite character in this game in terms of gameplay?

Have to give it to Dante. Nero is great, best he's ever been, but his aerial options are just way too good, it makes it too easy to stay out of danger at all times. I feel like V has some bizarre input delay and no semblance of buffering, so a lot of the time my summons aren't doing what I want them to do, unless you just want to set and forget Shadow and Griffon to their Devil Trigger activities and just ride Nightmare.

How do the counters feel to everyone else? At a glance they seem too forgiving, since you'll get a lot of counters mid-combat accidentally, but trying to get them consistently on Vergil or Cavaliere Angelo is tougher than I expected. I've been practicing against Furies in the Void and it seems like Balrog's ignited fists are the snappiest way to get a counter, outside of just Guarding everything. Rolling Blaze also interrupts Furies' attacks, which is pretty safe.

>>16240175

The other outfit is more tolerable

>>16240230

What's the other outfit?

>>16240230

>>16240175

Her eyes look so damn weird without glasses

>>16240233

I can't promise anythng since I am very far behind my personal project schedule but I would like to try "de-making" her into a more DMC4 styled model, at least the face.

>>16240246

White hair with no glasses?

>>16240201

She's a half-breed as well right?

>>16240251

Nope, Agnus became artificial demon after he left them.

>>16240246

Lady's outfit 2 looks so much better than the default because of the black jacket, but those glasses make her Schwarzenegger-tier box head look even worse.

>>16240256

I meant of the Oil Drilling, Coal Burning variety.

>>16240230

The problem I had with V at first was that because I was always moving around to avoid attacks, my demons would always do the opposite of what I wanted them to. Once I figured that out, I became godly as V

>>16240246

I like how Donte's color palette looks better on the actual Dante than it does on Donte himself.

>>16240271

It's the longer hair that sells it

>>16240266

Apparently she isn't related by blood to the Goldsteins per se, her mother came from a second marriage to grampa Goldstein, I am not sure.

What the fuck was that ending about?

>>16240281

What part?

>>16240271

Because Dante is a good looking guy, while Donte was modeled off of a rat faced frog-greek-turksomething mutant.

>>16240281

theres 4 of them

>>16240270

How do you do that? I always send Griffon to his impending doom when i try to shoot and walk

>>16240271

He looks like a man, even if Donte didn't resemble a mexican he's got that soy slouch where you look like you're hunched over when you stand upright.

>>16240299

By not locking on to enemies

>>16240270

Right, I get that dodging cancels their attacks, and it's useful in the Geryon Knight fight to avoid getting stalemated, but that's not really what I meant. Unless you keep them very close to you, they'll be constantly despawning away from the enemies and respawning to get closer to V, right? And inputs get lost during those windows, so I'll find myself trying to do Skewer or Double Check and then take my attention off the spawn because I assume he's doing what I asked, and then look back to see that nothing's happened. I'm not seeing any great technical execution with that character, unless I'm missing something major.

>>16240306

Thanks anon ❤

>>16240201

That reminds me, does anyone know if the game has an active modding scene already? I've heard people have already done model swaps of characters and are working on releasing playable Vergil in some capacity. I'd love to see a DMC1 style Dante face and outfit in the future.

>>16240281

My initial reaction to the ending was disappointment; I was completely expecting some kind of Mundus revival or a more satisfying resolution to the Urizen conflict. That said, I don't hate the ending outright, and its clear they were aiming for a happy ending for Dante and Vergil's character arcs. the ending works a lot better when you realize Dante and Vergil can use Yamato to leave Hell at any moment and that they're only staying so they can fight and settle out their differences. Plus it ties in nicely with the beginning of the Divine Comedy through Vergil guiding Dante through the layers of Hell.

For vendetta.

>>16240341

Fuck the women in this game are ugly.

I like all three but V is my least favourite. Tough call between Dante and Nero. Dante obviously has all the weapons and guns and styles, but Nero is a bunch of fun despite having one weapon and gun.

>>16240349

Nero is fucking glorious in 5, it feels less stiffer and that aerial plunge with the sword is rad as fuck also being able to stay airborne longer with the taunt is a nice little touch

>>16240364

>working nigress

<imblying

Lay off the wacky tobaccy, anon.

>>16240332

Well V is for Vergil and Cyberpunk V some people think is a cyborg, version 5/V.

>>16240359

He's got a crazy amount of aerial control. Aerial Combo, Roulette Spin, Enemy Step, Double Jump, Flap Top, Taunt, Snatch, Calibur, Buster moves. Real good stuff.

>>16240281

DON'T YOU DARE SAY IT!

>>16240401

JACKPOT!

>tfw Dante's theme is still trash

It's okay, but I really do like it when you hit an S and you hear

>>16240425

It's really nice that crapcom gave out a free, denuvoless, version that also comes with all of the DLC, including the better music tracks, innit m8?

>>16240169

>Nightmare's out

>V still has black hair

>>16240328

>fight and settle out their differences

Except that would require ignoring that the 3rd fight with Vergil never happened in DMC3. And the bonus ending of DMC3 makes it clear that Vergil is more concerned with living up to his father's legacy. Really, having some other evil manipulate Vergil' into his current form in 5 would make more sense rather than "Vergil is still salty". Hell if they went with that, they could go back and remake DMC2, and change the plot to be about Dante trying to find Vergil and see if he could rescue him, like he tried to do at the end of the 3rd Vergil fight.

>>16240477

>May Kanker

>>16240482

Combine it with Balrog and Dante almost becomes a JoJo.

>>16240328

I actusllh sort of figured before it came out that if no major character dies, it would end with Dante and Vergil broing it up in hell while Nero becomes truely main character. I think this way does work bestl as it leaves the option if bringing them back whenever open, and the old "ETERNALLY BATTLING DEMONS WHILST TRAPPED IN HELL" ending is always somewhat satisfying. The ending was a little less climactic then i thoight though yeah. I fully expected a climactic battle against a big villian for them to work together against at some point, but I think I enjoy the Vergil fights more in terms of gameplay the I would a big clunky boss. As it is Nero's got his supporting cast built more solidly now, and they can add new arms to Nero for a sequel easily.

I still think Nero should have kids eventually. Twins would be funny.

Also Patty never got her date and is gonna be pissed.

>>16240482

i always piss away money when i use it, how do people say it prints money?

wow im exceptionally bad at this game. I dont remember sucking this much in 3 and 4

>>16240502

50k orbs? What do you need 30k orbs for? You're killing me, goy.

>>16240505

You have no excuse to suck, DMCV is by far the easiet DMC game to date.

>Best weapons

>Most mechanics

>Best mechanics

>Smoothest gameplay

As long as you just switch up weapons and combos constantly and do the most flashy shit once you hit A or S rank you'll be swimming in SS's or even SSS's.

>>16240503

Do the hat move, have Faust leveled up and then do the Gunslinger move.

>>16240504

>except for the bike

I love that thing. Its real slow so you have to make it count, but the Swordmaster moves are too damn fun.

>>16240477

Why does Nico make me want to pump her Jewess pussy full of my Aryan seed?

>>16240516

I dont really suck but I consider it bad especially after Chickeen boss and game tends to have those weird slow downs in middle of fights where it stays 60 fps but slows down to crawl.

>>16240532

Nico does look like trailer trash but they look nothing alike you dope.

So why does V look like Kylo Ren?

>>16240549

Looks more like Tetsuo to me

So I put hundreds of hours into the first one for the ps2, but once 2 was announced I never played the rest of the series.

What does 3, 4, and 5 introduce that is interesting and fun?

>>16240565

Watch some gameplay videos

I thought you were supposed to be able to cycle through demon breakers. Did I just imagine that or am I missing something?

>>16240572

are you at the start? because similar setup with bulldozer cpu and in later parts its not that good.

>>16240537

That happens when you clash with an enemy attack, parrying it.

It also happens twice during the final fight for dramatic value but that's it.

>>16240477

Is basically a recolor, can't believe they charge you for that.

>>16240580

At the start, yeah.

Got any benchmarks for later levels with a similar CPU?

>>16240576

So anons don't want to talk about video games on a video game board? Thanks Mark.

>>16240587

it tanks, extremely. into 20fps territory and I lowered what I could that cpu takes care of.

also some fights are impossible because of weird slow downs. >>16240537

>>16240143

>El Dante

>>16240601

Man, 3,4,5 have a shit ton of stuff that improved the gameplay, we can tell you a few things but you would need to see them in action.

>>16240611

Can you post your savefile for the level you're on where it tanks? I want to test it so I tune the settings I need.

>>16240579

You can use one of the Breakers to swap your order I think, but its Deluxe exclusive. Cycling through was not an option as they didn't want players getting complacent. They are a risk/reward type of deal and having control would mean you'd put the ones you're comfortable with away from danger. Its not very smooth and doesn't make sense of course, but from a gameplay perspective it changes things up a bit, especially compared to Dante who has total freedom with his arsenal and styles.

>>16240565

>What does 3, 4, and 5 introduce that is interesting and fun?

Humor.

Different fighting styles for Dante

Vergil

Nero

THE TIME HAS COME AND SO HAVE I

PULL MY DEVIL TRIGGER

>>16240611

>>16240624

Also, are you using the denuvo-less .exe or did you buy the game?

>>16240477

Much better

>>16240650

Ice Age brother.

>>16240650

Those fuckers and the spinning lizards are annoying.

>>16240633

denuvo less repack.

>>16240624

mission15 was worst for me but it was also in previous mission in that area and in the subway big open areas right before escalators.

>>16240650

Just fill his ass with some coyote love

>>16240650

Why do the DMC games always have to have one enemy type that is pure asspain to fight? The fucking angels that could throw explosive swords in DMC3, the electric fucklizard that causes your attacks to bounce until you pound his ass with bullets for two minutes straight, and now the Fury.

>>16240662

Can you post your savefile on Mediafire or something? I can't seem to find one that works

>>16240690

Go for a buster and hope for the best, I've found.

>>16240725

Get over yourself

>>16240690

Just keep air taunting until he gets tired.

If you're feeling ballzy I think you can counter him with Overture.

I wonder if you can counter it with rawhide.

I'll test it in a bit.

>>16240141

Dante, but V is fun too.

I like nero a lot. Mostly because of tomboy. Once you start hammering away with that thing it's insanely satisfying. It's almost like permanent sin devil trigger. Although it's impossible not to get hit if you get really going since the flames cover the enemies completely.

>>16240801

she actually looks pretty dame cute in that mocap pic.

>>16240725

>There has been allot of DMC5 threads

Yeah that tends to happen when People have be waited 11 years for a video game to come out, they kind of want to talk about it.

Did you also complain about the REmake 2 and KH3 threads.

>>16240841

>Spoiler that shit.

do not avert your gaze

>>16240846

Don't tell me what to do

Anyone else feel like directional commands are a bit weird in this game?

They feel kind of off on Dante and Nero, but it`s really noticeable on V, maybe because of his playstyle, it feels really hard to do inputs sometimes.

>>16240806

>>16240801

I'd still hit it.

Especially if she looks like how she does in her mocap pic and has a decent ass to back that up.

Or thats what I would have said if I didn't check out her instagram and see this abomination of a pic https://www.instagram.com/p/Bsl87fJAvUR/

>>16240915

Looks like a regular chick that doesn't work out

>>16240924

https://www.instagram.com/p/BlpXAX3APg_/

Would you fuck and nut in her belly flabs?

>>16240934

>>16240930

>>16240955

Dante was having fun getting beat up in DMC3, in this one he's actually shook about it

>>16240947

It's because she takes some good pictures with a photographer sometimes for modeling, and also bad pictures at times on purpose to appease the body positive SJW crowd. That's why she became semi famous.

That being said, she's leaning/bending instead of standing up straight which is why the rolls show up. Most girls' stomachs look like that, it's the average. I'm currently seeing a girl with a stomach like that, but better tits, much, much better ass and a better face so I'm not complaining.

>>16240967

V is more goth than emo

>>16240971

>I'm currently seeing a girl with a stomach like that, but better tits, much, much better ass and a better face so I'm not complaining.

Wow, how'd you manage to pull that off, normalfag?

Is 3dpd actually worth the money and time?

>>16240888

Only because the camera moves around, meaning you have to do the inputs relative to that. V's are annoying though.

>>16240982

Took some work, not gonna lie.

I sometimes think it's not worth it. Some girls are definitely lower maintenance than others, though, so it's up to luck or effort to find one that's easier to deal with. There are definitely some out there that don't require that much mental/financial effort, making the net gain positive.

>>16240572

I'm glad it works for you, mine is in slow motion

>>16240988

Why do so many demons have tails coming out of their back?

>>16240988 (checked)

Holy shit how do you use your stand arm and devil breaker at the same time like that?

I must have missed out on that mechanic at some point.

>>16240999 (fuckkin checked!)

Ah, makes sense.

Normalfag girls are usually always a pain to deal with an will hop on another guys cock as soon as she senses that you are not some kind of demi-god among men and just human being.

Tomboys actually have a soul and are people who I can actually talk to and kinda relate to and be myself around, generally they are also uncucked. They don't have shitty mainstream taste in everything like how other women have so when it comes to women, they are simply superior.

And fuck having to put work into getting a GF, I should just have to ask and BAM thats it, I fucking hate how everything has to be so complicated nowadays.

>>16240988

Its clear now why these guys don't show up until SoS or above, because of Nero's Bringer. Rawhide obviously works but no guarantee you'd be equipped to fight them without that Bringer.

>>16240999

>I sometimes think it's not worth it.

Probably isn't then.

>>16241022

Because it can be used like a normal sword too anon.

Did you forget literally every single other timeVergil stabbed someone in the DMC games?

>>16241022

Because Arkham was human not both

>>16241022

Same reason why not every Vergil slash opens a portal.

You gotta mean to use it, which is why Dante never absorbed anything when being stabbed by the rebellion before.

>>16240801

What's the point in even posting this? Trying to derail with bullshit? Someone ought to take your fucking eyes.

>>16240828

Yeah let's all react to the stupid fucking pictures and not talk about the game fuck you.

>>16241016

>Holy shit how do you use your stand arm and devil breaker at the same time like that?

Have you not beaten the game yet?

>>16241016

To be fair, it used to be more complicated in the past, there was more courting involved (unless you were boning some hippie/drug addict). Getting girls just to fuck is easier than ever now with dating apps (assuming you know how to take good pictures of yourself and dress decently), they're pretty much throwing themselves to you.

Since I'm mentioning dating apps, it's worth noting that, while they work for a fuck, you shouldn't formally date one that uses/has used one of those in the past since they're usually the sluttiest and trashiest ones.

Haven't used one myself but I know some who did, never ended up well for obvious reasons

>>16241052

Yeah I did, thats why I'm saying I must have missed that mechanic somehow.

I guess I'll check the in game tutorial thing on how to do it but it would have been nice for you to tell me how to do it instead of trying to waste my time.

>>16241085

Well first you have to go into the game's directory and delete the .exe, then you must dump a water bottle into your computer case.

>>16241060

>>16241016

>>16240999

Alright normalfag take this shit elsewhere

>>16240222

Honestly I find nero to be one of the easiest to use but hardest to master in terms of racking up stylish points. Without using his DT it's pretty hard to get SS combos even on hp sponges(you can juggle em all day and stay at s with nero) it's like you gotta use the charge shot whilst using max act like a god. Playing DMD mode so far and nero is just hard to play as V has HP problems and I haven't gotten to the dante levels yet.

>>16240399

Yea nero has aerial control but honestly dante's trickster moves are 10 times better. Being able to teleport in front of aerial enemies and away gives you so many options and you can jump cancel which gives you your dashes back so trickster just makes nero juggles look so shitty in comparison. Top tier nero play must involve a shit load of charging red queen and blue rose in order to get fucking STYLISH as hell. Not to mention that nero has no style switching and a worse devil trigger.

Why is Nico's lip sync so bad?

>>16240967

When I look at V I get NIN "The Perfect Drug" music video mixed with a Marylin Manson Music video. Like this guy said >>16240978 V is more goth than emo. You should probably watch "The Perfect Drug" video because the guy is running around with a vulture and cane(japs taking inspiration I think)

>>16240175

I haven't heard her Japanese VA yet. I didn't think I would like her but she sort of grew on me. Her voice, looks, and mannerisms match up really well with her all around character and it feels like they were just taking the piss with her. I'm not sure if fujoshi is the right word to describe her, but I hardly ever see females being the brash genius.

>>16241238

>tfw it was right trigger to grab demons with the stand arm this entire time

>tfw I missed an entire new mechanic because I thought it was exclusive to the final battle

>tfw probably never pressed right trigger the entire time while playing the game besides the final boss fight because I thought it was useless

Also thanks for the help you guys, really appreciated.

>>16241272

You can use that new buster during moves to do additional attacks, including during taunts, so Nero's air taunt can be used similar to Dante's rose if you time it right.

>>16240246

what's with El Donte new sword?

>>16241006

>I'm glad it works for you, mine is in slow motion

What's your setup? Is it even worse than mine?

>>16241272

>>16240516

>DMCV is by far the easiet DMC game to date.

You're telling me with a straight face you think that DMC5 is easier than DMC2, DMC4, and DmC? I said it last thread and I'll say it again, DMC4 on DMD is easier than DMC5 on DH.

>>16240747

>>16240988

Not the optimal way to do it, in my opinion, you want to use Ragtime's breaker move. It puts a Bangle of Time effect over the whole arena. You can even see the Fury during his dashes, it no longer teleports around.

>>16241336

>new sword

>>16241157

Because I think its the Japanese synching and watching those live action cutscenes, Nico was given a lot more dialogue than her Japanese version. So the VA had to cram in a lot more words.

>>16241382

Also, if DMC4 taught me anything, you can definitely buster counter those dash attacks, guarantee it.

>>16241385

>If only you knew how fucked everything is.

>>16241395

After seeing how bad RE7,RE2 and MHW looks like I kinda know how fucked everything else is tbh.

>>16241382

I was pretty surprised by how fucking hard DMD is in this game compared to 4. I managed to get halfway through DMD in 4 without breaking much sweat this time it's just batshit after level 3.

>>16241404

>After seeing how bad RE7,RE2 and MHW looks like

What drugs are you on?

>>16241404

A lot of the men look alright in RE engine, but something about the women just come out looking like garbage

>>16241452

I think it's easier to make men look good than women, cause they're supposed to have strong jawlines

>>16241315

I cant even see the enemies in my pictures because I'm always aerial powerbombing shit.

>>16241389

Buster doesn't seem to have as much detail as DMC4's.

I thought I'd be able to buster the spinning machines the quadruped boss launched at you but it did nothing.

>>16241381

You're running on a laptop with an integrated graphics card, that's your problem. The game is pretty GPU bound from what I've seen. Looks like most cheap discrete GPUs will do wonders.

Thanks for the answer. Been interested in keeping an eye on the performance.

>>16241473

>nipple tattoo.

Please stop.

>>16241484

Ah, what a shame. I tried it in The Void too and couldn't a buster counter to work. That's bizarre, though, I mean surely you're able to counter Artemis' diving attack, and maybe Goliath's projectiles.

>>16241490

>>16241381

>geforce 930m

Sorry, I didn't read this. You do have a discrete graphics card, it's just pretty weak.

>>16241473

Nice. We just need someone to get rid of the tattoos and send her and Lady's model off to the animators.

>>16240628

Yeah makes sense. Honestly, I find Dante pretty overwhelming with all the stuff he has. I had to put some weapons away because it just felt incredibly cluttered and I'm not comfortable juggling all those weapons yet.

>>16241686

those are well done, i always try work multiple powerbombs and other wrestling slams into my combos.

>>16241686

Because no one watches wrestling anymore anon.

>>16241716

Everyone remembers when it was big though.

Those were some of the best memes.

anyone playing on keyboard?

>getting through mob with SSS and no damage nets you 5200 style points

>getting through mob with SSS, dropping combo once nets 5400 style points

>getting through mob with SSS, but taking damage and dropping combo multiple times nets 5600

>finishing three enemies each with SSS drops style points 500

>finishing Fury with a D raises style points 600

I wish there were numbers on screen at all times because I just don't understand the ranking at all.

>>16241789

Try hooking cheatengine and looking for your style point total. Finding it might or might not be tedious, but once you have its address, you can follow the total as you fight

>Mission 5 DMD

Why in god's name would you pack so many lizards into a small hallway as the first god damn fight? pls help this is too much as V I have no defensive options to deal with 5 of these fucks ;_;

is something wrong with Reuben? I feel like he sounds way different in 5.

>>16241897

It's been 11 years anon. He's getting old

>>16241897

He is a little older and he is actually getting beaten up badly during DMCV, no longer a walk in the park.

>>16241880

>>16241972

Happened to come across this thread and was looking through it. Sorry my (1) post triggered your autism, but it seems you're not happy with anyone being slightly off-topic about this mediocre game

>>16241819

I don't know if I want to bother with that quite yet, but I may have figured it out, and if it's true then it makes sense why it would only calculate it at the end of the mission. I think what it judges is the time spent on each style rank. I tried the first mob of Mission 10 with the intention of keeping SSS as long as possible and got 6000+ points at the end. The next mob, I reached SSS and then used Quadruple S to finish off the remaining enemies as quickly as possible, and it dropped to 5200.

>>16241999

>DMCV

>Being anywhere close to mediocre

Okay anon, what game would you define to be a good game?

>>16242007

God Hand, Ys series, Monster hunter (up to 4U), Vanillaware's games, Dawn of War 1, Thief 1 and 2, MGR, Custom Robo, Doom, and of course DMC1, 3, and 4 to name a few.

That's actually much anon, thanks.

>>16241490

>>16241497

I fiddled with nvidia some more and it looks like the game is running really well now.

>>16242048

So that card can run it? That's impressive. Do you run the game on medium settings?

>>16242026

How the fuck do you consider DMC1 to be better than DMC5?

Although its still playable that game aged like cheese and is inferior to DMC5 in every way.

You better not be fucking nostalgic about the damn game, nostalgiafags deserve to be bullied.

>>16242072

Out of that list, that one bugged you the most? Granted, 1 is a bit of a stretch, but it doesn't hurt to remember the classics fondly anon.

>being this mad someone isn't sucking this game's dick without question

Why don't you come back after you get out of the honeymoon phase? It's best not to claim a game is the best one when you've only played it for a short time.

>>16240549

Same reason why Gloria looks like Lady Gaga. Some character aritst at Capcom is prophetic.

>>16241931

>lack of turbo

Someone on infernalworks posted a timescale cheat engine hack that might be able to implement something akin to turbo. I haven't personally tried it but it's worth looking into. It even works with the no denuvo exe.

https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/infernalworks/dmc5-timescale-ce-table-t3886.html

>>16240141

I'm awful at the game, partly because I'm a faggot who hasn't played the other games. Anyway V is easy mode. Button mash straight to SSS and never get hit because you're no where near the fight. Nero is the hardest of the main three, limited evasive moves and a smaller moveset as well. Without being able to cycle devil breakers manually (short of throwing them away) you are basically stuck with just one type, and I use Gerbera because it works as an air dodge. Dante has potential to be fun but controlling the styles with my 360 dpad makes me want to kill myself.

>>16242072

Ignore him, he derailed the last thread too.

>>16242094

>but it doesn't hurt to remember the classics fondly anon

Thats good enough of a reason for me, but I still find it strange how you think DMC is mediocre considering how much of a love letter to the seires it was and trying its best to go above and beyond at every single department.

I will just assume you're baiting.

You got me good though

>>16242119

I don't remember doing any of that or that thread getting derailed.

Probably a different guy or you're just delusional.

>>16242156

Did that poster not play on SoS mode or higher? Because they totally get more aggressive, and all enemy spawns are mostly remixed.

>>16242026

>MGR

Horribly rush to the end with a weapon changing system that is absolute ass

>Monster Hunter

The PS2 games are pretty shit and the series overall didn't get legitimately good until freedom unite and even that game had nightmare tier hitboxes

>Ys series

Guaranteed you never played the originals which sre pretty badly aged and the party based Ys titles have been middling at best coming from a guy who actually liked Ys 7

>Vanillaware games

Didn't good till Muramasa Rebirth. The original Odin Sphere and Princess Crown are just okay outside of the artstyle.

>DMC4

Unfinished with pretty boring levels outside of the Fortuna streets and is only good because of how mechanically sound the game is

>DMC1

Le nostalgia but nah fighting 4 bosses 3 times with gimped mechanics is totally 10/10. It's a great base but to say that it hasn't been beaten out by every DMC since 3 is stupid.

For the record I actually lile all of these games but to list these as good games and then say DMCV is mediocre compared to them is real fucking retarded. It beats out like half of this list and is on par with the rest.

>>16242199

Artemis's grab can be Exceeded throughout, btw, so it's possible to Max-Act it, too. Combined with DT damage I wouldn't be shocked if you could kill her with it.

>>16242193

The remakes of the original 2 Ys games are good.

>>16242199

I know you can throw Goliath into a building and make it collapse, was there anything special for the others? I remember Artemis' mostly being like the buster finisher on Echidna.

>>16242204

>>16242199

The Buster Arm is actually Noticeably Stronger then the Bringer ,so it's not pointless just so you know.

>>16242156

Oh fuck, I remember that guy.

He hates DMCV and thinks its fan-made-tier bad because it has fanservice in it.

What a fucking retard.

>>16242204

>>16242214

Oh, very nice. I figured it becoming useless didn’t matter to much considering all the other arm options but I’m glad they actually gave you a reason to still use it… now I’m gonna try it real quick.

>>16242205

Chalk it up to taste but bumper combat isn't for me. That aside the ORIGINAL Ys games aren't what you could call good until like Ys 6 Arc of Naphishtim, Oath in Felghana (the Ys 3 remake) is pretty good though.

Could I get some advice on the falling platform rooms in mission 8? No matter how fast I try and kill the enemies I take too long and the platform falls. I really want that blue orb piece.

>>16242199

I hope we get some more playable characters in it.

I need to try to do more with Nero's knuckle attacks, but it seems awkward that he has two abilities centered on timing just as he attacks an enemy.

>play as Dante

>lose rebellion in first mission

>get sparda for next

>two missions of sparda before I am using a third main sword

>Dante has differen't inputs and shreds differently than Rebellion/Sparda, but once you get used to them it feels like you have more options to fuck with

>DT gives you summoned swords on SM, all combos for every weapon were decidedly integrated

>tfw I know there's still a 4th weapon for me

I can't wait for cerberus, I saw they implemented the trick weapon from balrog into the concept of a three tier weapon with cerberus and it made me lose my shit; dante has so much going on that it's hard to understand how anyone could go back to playing one of the other two

>>16242307

Well it's possible to kill the enemies, but you can bypass the fight completely.

You can use Gerbera, Caliber and the Air Taunt for Distance, and even if you fall in you can use an Exceed level 3 High Roller to get all the way back up and also Wall Hike / Air Hike.

>>16242319

Fuck. All this time and I've thought that the goodies were red walled until I cleared the enemies.

>>16242313

It's interesting because despite all the options on offer it still seems like Dante is still a sluggish oddball—even in the hands of someone like Donguri, who's been known to have blindingly fast combos and tricky consecutive inputs. Compare his DMC4 gameplay and guard flying to his DMC5 combo MAD.

>>16242319

>>16242307

You can get to the blue orb one just by mashing with Gebera.

Do the enemies become more aggressive on later difficulties? They are still pretty tame on SoS though the bosses feel much more challenging now which is nice.

>>16242332

>watching dmc

LOL

>>16242334

Yeah but Caliber and Air taunt works just as well, if you don't have Gerbera equipped. Honestly Nero has so much Air control that I'v never felt the need to actually use Gerbera.

his Air Taunt is actually one of the most useful Moves in the entire series for me, not only is it more air time it's basically a free Exceed.

>>16242313

I really like how the New Devil Sword Dante just has air rave built in letting you have access to a simple air combo no matter what style you're playing on. It helped breal my habit of always being on swordmaster in DMC4.

>>16242343

DmC2 is not DmC.

>>16242350

FUCK OFF /vg/

>>16242350

And you have no value.

>>16242333

>dante feels sluggish

DMC5 is very sluggish, but compared to nero and V dante is a high octane and fun character.

>>16242368

>>16242393

Enjoy your casual sjw westernized garbage

Is it possible to kill Urizen with Nero in mission 8? I know you can kill him in the prologue and get the secret ending, I'm just not sure what happens if you're good enough to keep fighting Urizen form 2, I usually get creamed.

No. It's only possible in the prologue.

>>16242397

>DMC5 is very sluggish

I didn't notice any significant input delay and the only inputs I can't cancel are Balrog's ignited Swordmaster moves, so I don't really agree. They even removed some delays from DMC4, style-switching on the ground no longer has a delay. Can't chalk it up to memory, either, I replayed DMC3 and 4 for about 150 and 100 hours respectively last year, on Turbo.

>>16242400

Alright. Thanks for your input. Now fuck off back to /vg/.

>>16242409

I don't like /vg/ maybe you should go there and create DmC2 general?

>>16242346

>always being on SM

really you can have an easy time being on Sm and switching between RG and TS for speed and parrying purposes. It's not actually a terrible habit, it just means your center is damage and maneuvering>>16242400

becomes secondary.

>>16242400

>casual

I feel like DMC 5 is more accepting to newcomers, especially getting A rank on missions I die in and S in missions I don't, but the dante missions throw a shit ton of challenge by giving you tons of enemies that all don't stagger too much,

>>16242333

>>16242352

It’s a shame Brea is nowhere to be found. It’d be neat to see what she could do with the game.

>>16242405

>Is it possible to kill Urizen with Nero in mission 8?

Yes it is, I did the other day. you have to forgive my Jewtube link, I'm not good enough with Webm to make the fight 16mb and not make the quality look like shit.

>>16242482

Also when I was doing this fight, I noticed on Human your can gain DT when using it, if your agressive your DT a ridiculously long time.

On DMD you can't gain DT when using it like usual. haven't checked how it is on Devil Hunter or SOS yet,

>>16242474

And then make his VA a white guy. >>16241246

>>16241473

how to access this?

>>16242561

They're cheating a little with that one. It's from mission 4.

>>16242216

I see where he's coming from though, outside of like furies no normal enemies will ever really pose a threat unless you get really greedy with trying to speed up the combat. Speeding up the combat may or may not even hurt your rank with how arbitrary the style point system seems to be, where staying at SSS will sometimes result in lower points than being in S the entire time.

I don't see DMC5 lasting though, feels like there's not a whole lot of depth to any of the characters, and seeing people do combo videos only reinforces it. They're going to huck DLC at it to keep it alive, but that won't change the core.

It's 6/10 at best.

>>16242673

Is it just the hair that's changed?

Also, Lady fix when?

>>16242873

Charged Griffon lightning does decent damage to him. Try sniping him with Shadow's Skewer too.

>>16242873

One thing I found that helped immensely was utilizing the back and side dodges, to call back Griffon and Shadow. Just have to pick your timings to get the damage going.

>>16242888

(Checked)

There are face swaps around but they don't mesh well with the different body's facial animations. Kinda like the Nerdy stuff that one anon did back then.

>>16242482

impressive

>>16242994

Except that's not true, I've kept myself at SSS pretty much 90% of the time didn't get hit, and still had a lower style score than when I had an S rank for a majority and got hit 3 times. I swear speed is the most important factor in style score.

>>16242755

Why the fuck would it need to "last", nigger? This is a single player game. People will enjoy it, move on, then replaying it if the mood's right. The goal isn't player retention. Have the kikes already implanted the idea that games as a service is good into your brain?

>>16242530

>not utilizing the ex-act system.

Learning how exceed works would improve your game play significantly.

>>16243005

I can test it out in a bit but I feel like I already did it.

Yeah no that's just not possible, I remember vividly ending the first fight of M18 with a constant SSS and then my style points kept dropping down because I couldn't get it up to SSS again.

It's either time spent on rank or, more possibly, killing an enemy multiplies you on the enemy you killed with your current style rank.

>>16243024

It's to be noted though that I think it works differently for bosses, it seems to have a different way to rate you.

>>16243024

It's most assuredly not time spent on the rank.

>>16243014

Don't ask me ask capcom who's trying to make every game into an "experience"

>>16243055

On DMD? Not really, it's just about knowing when to Iframe and when.You have a surprisingly generous S rank requirement on him, so you can take your time if needed. It's a marathon not a sprint with him.

>>16243069

what frame rate is the game running on your toaster?

>>16242352

Perhaps. Like I mentioned in >>16242105 I think someone made a timescale hack that might emulate turbo mode. I haven't had a chance to check it yet.

>>16243161

I would guess so, mostly for reference like when you draw a (nonfeatured) nude layer of art first.

>>16240580

Actually anon it's only the scurv version that seems to have performance problems

>>16243166

>>16243161

Its not dev made, i found claire on nexusmods.

Only tangentially related but this topic doesn't deserve its own thread:

< > Can fans all look back and respect that DmC was a good game on its own merits just not a good Devil May Cry?

< > Conversely can DmC apologist realized that Tameem Antoniades did quite a bit to antagonize Loyal fans and deserves the hate?

< > Can DmC apologist realize the problems fans with the combat where legitimate concerns that where never fixed and that DmC was was technically inferior to DMC3 &4?

< > Can games journalist realize the aesthetics of DmC was somewhat of a strawman to ignore the real concerns of loyal fans?

< > Granting the unnecessary undignified jabs at fans thanks to Tameem's ego. Can fan's put aside their bias long enough to realize Donta actually has a character arc and is a much more noble character by the end of the game and that while mismanaged and had a few poor taste scenes it's not as bad as many like to hysterically cry?

< > Granted Lucia is sexy, can everyone at least agree that DMC2 is still the worst game in terms of game play?

< > other considerations I may have missed in favor of or against DmC

also:

THANK GOD FOR DMC5 aside from the microtransaction bullshit

>>16243237

Yeah I got that pic from Nexusmods too but it looks way too good to not actually be the original model.

>>16243247

which is why i was sorely dissapointed. Oh well. If theres a way to convert the RE2 model formats and all that id gladly fix her negroid lips and western facial structure but i dont have the autism to dig for it at the moment.

>>16243245

The final state of DmC is much improved and showed that the people behind it were able to at least recognize poor decisions and attempt to correct them. I always believed that DmC was a mediocre game betrayed by its license and writing/story, which turned it into a bad game overall. Yes, it's a poor Devil May Cry, but frankly, that's what it was trying to be, so that's how it is judged. Its license is core to the game. If it wasn't a DMC game, it wouldn't even exist, so trying to excise that is a poor argument.

Donte had enough character to be okay by the very end, to the point where him showing up as a jobber-ass demon hunter would have been totally okay. A schmuck that would have served a purpose similar to Crew Cut, someone to highlight Nero's persona and capability. Possibly even a joke playable character.

>>16243267

The only reason it’s improved in Definitive Edition is cause Itsuno worked on it.

>>16243191

Why on earth would you remap Dante's gun to R2 and Devil Trigger to X when it's DT that needs to be held?

>>16243150

It also worth mentioning that Donguri's playing without using DT in that video, which makes everything even slower. With the exception of the last bit, where he's using Swords Formation.

>>16243005

>I swear speed is the most important factor in style score.

Except that can't be true, because I know when I've tried to get the style to SSS and then ended the fight as quickly as possible it's been more of a detriment to the score than when I milked the enemies for style.

>>16243245

While it may not be it's fault, I can't forgive DmC's existence for how fucking divisive it is. Yes, the game is an okay hack n slash, but NT and Tameem deserved what they got for how they antagonized fans. That being said, Capcom isn't free of blame either because they WANTED the game to be so vastly different to the originals. NT originally wanted something closer to what the originals had on offer, but Capcom would only backpedal after seeing the fan reaction.

>>16243283

Funnily enough, Itsuno likes DmC. It's why Dante's EX outfit and Vergil's default outfit are based on DmC palettes. Probably explains why Vergil's boss fight is so similar to the one in DmC, just with a fraction of interrupting cutscenes, and the difficulty ramped up.

>>16243267

I don't think that DmC is that bad of a game honestly. Yeah sure it's a terrible DMC game but if it released as its own IP, I don't think that people would've disliked it as much as they do now. Also Donte's love interest was cute.

>>16243267

This might be sacrilege, but you see I knew about Devil May Cry games but DmC was the first game I honestly played so I didn't come into it with any bias and actually liked the game. Then I went back and played the other games and grew to appreciate why people hated DmC and learned about all the backstory with Tameem being a shithead.

The thing is, in terms of plot I kinda wanted to see where Donte was going next because I actually didn't hate the character and in my basic bitch understanding of the Classic games plot I could see how it could have been worked into a prequel where the Jerk would evolve into the Hero closer aliened with the character everyone loved.

That being said, my perspective has drastically changed after getting good at DMC4 and playing DMC3 and I fully respect that DmC was a unnecessary slap in the face to fans but their is this small part of me that wished it could have survived and became its own spin off series. And while the Characterization was not great the general demon cyberpunk aesthetic was sorta cool imho.

>>16243291

I can agree with that. Just looking back at old Jewtube video of e-celebirites defending Donte, or who the game ends with a middle finger is leaves a bad taste in everyone's moths. I just wish it could have existed without the baggage of trying to live in the shadows of a greater game.

>who

how*

>>16243245

>> Can fans all look back and respect that DmC was a good game on its own merits just not a good Devil May Cry?

No, no it wasn't. NT sure tried, but even with Capcom working double-time to fix everything for definitive edition, it's still a piece of shit.

I will hate and shit on NT till the day I fucking die.

>>16243291

>Itsuno likes DmC

He liked what they were trying to do. But the fact was that nearly everything about DmC was a trainwreck, to the point where even definitive edition is only really playable at best.

>>16243297

>Also Donte's love interest was cute.

She looks fucking hideous; easily as bad as DMC5's Trish.

There's something just wrong with her eyes, it's why her model got re-purposed into a fucking Tali face in sfm porn; it just doesn't look normal.

>>16243366

>She looks fucking hideous; easily as bad as DMC5's Trish.

I thing she's cute but I also think RE2 Claire is cute. Maybe I just have a fetish for weird looking faces.

>>16243366

>definitive edition

Best part is, they didn't even release that shit for PC, so anyone without a nogames4 or xbawks uno will never actually get to try the "playable" version.

Will he be DLC or part of the Bloody Palace update? That’s the question

>>16243463

>Dante: MUTHERRRR

>Vergil: DADDYYYYY

>Nero: FUCK YOU DEADBEAT DAD

>FALLEN TOGETHER

>>16243503

Featuring Bayonetta from Bayonetta.

I struggle with back and forward attacks, would editing sensitivity in game help?

>>16243556

Don't forget the "this game does not condone smoking" disclaimer from the start of the game.

>>16243611

It's also because Dante was originally invisioned as a hero who didn't need to swear or smoke to be cool.

>>16240141

im having a bit of trouble geting S rank with dante, the balrog is a bit more ortodoxe than im used to that kind of weapon

>>16241789

if i get it right

they removed the "time" as mesure at the end of the stage and instead add a mechanic that your total style points goes down as time passes

dante's favourite ost

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7HMF7vGt0bs

>>16243611

Doesn't Japan have a more prominent smoking culture than the US?

>>16243640

That doesn't seem right, although it is true beyond the first mob that every subsequent mob seems to lower the style points no matter what the performance is like. I guess the saving grace of this is that anyone with a poor rank could just get good, since the No Damage multiplier practically hands you the S rank.

>>16243654

Not necessarily, it's just that depiction of smoking tobacco is more strictly regulated in Japan to prevent children from getting into it

>>16242117

I lost my copy if DMC4 last gen after I beat Nero's story and be er picked it up again thus I never played 4 as Dante. I just got to play as Dante in 5 and it is fucking OVERWHELMING.

4 STYLES

4 WEAPONS

4 SUBWEAPONS

10^1000000 POSSIBLE MOVES

I dont know guys, what if I never go CUH-RAZY

>tfw I will never have the patience and skill to S rank the games

I'm pretty sure it is some kind of average when it comes to style points. As long as you keep high rank your stylish points will keep high. That is way small encounters with few enemies seem to actually hurt your score, as they usually die to fast or make its harder for the player to ramp up score fast enough to be at high rank from the beginning of the fight. Also, certains level have "checkpoints" which keep separated scores, usually one for the level and one for the boss. I'm no sure if the bonuses granted through the level count towards the final Rank. But in DMD as Nero I'm getting S in all levels, playing good enough to be in S/SS/SSS in almost all fights, and I notices in the levels i do best I get to 7000+ points. In contrast, I'm doing badly in V levels, getting hit, having Nightmare and Shadow in "stalemate" and having very inconsistent rank and at the end I have B or if lucky A. How long it takes to complete the level I'll say it has no effect, as I took my time exploring the level with Nero and still got good grades. It does give you a bonus at the end but as I say, I'm not sure if it actually contributes to your final score.

My wish is for Capcom to release a free DLC with a short Vergil Campaign, where you fight demons in the underworld together with Dante, we get a hint that Mundus is returning to finish the job, and the brothers decide that is time to go back home and warn Nero. Also it can be played fully coop with one player as Vergil and other as Dante. It would nicely wrap up the story, as it felt it still needed a final climax, as good as Verfil boss fight was.

V's taunts were great.

Okay, I'm sold on the timing thing, I was recording some footage to prove that it resulted in style point losses, but focusing on killing the enemies as quickly as possible has shown the greatest style point gains yet. First time I didn't lose points on the third mob of Mission 10.

>>16243015

Don't you mean MAX-Act?

>>16243937

Instant Rev is called EX-ACT. Max-act is when you have a skill so a perfectly time Ex-Act fill the full exceed meter.

>>16243919

so i was right but just a question

i was undert the impression that was the overall mission time, could it be is just the time you are fighting?

>>16244016

I get max-act very often, my revving is not perfect all the time though, at least not with all the attacks but you can see I use it there.

V on SoS makes me want to firebomb Capcom. I dread to think what DMD will be like.

>>16244071

oh sorry, I must not have been playing attention. I see I was mistaken upon watching a second time.

>>16244123

>not using the boomer byke

honestly I should do what you do and limit myself to get a better hand on the weapons, 4 at a time is still too much for me, pretty nicely done anon.

But yeah he gets some anti-air like an uppercut and a few other moves in phase 3, honestly m17 Urizen in DH is a complete joke, I spent the entire fight on his head JC Swordmaster and he just couldn't hit me.

>>16244200

Cavaliere is 2slow4me at the moment, although I don't really have an excuse for not using Faust or at least throwing Kalina Ann in the mix.

>I spent the entire fight on his head JC Swordmaster and he just couldn't hit me.

Felt the same way about King Cerberus except you can hover around the back of his neck to the same effect, although at least he resets his position relatively frequently.

>>16244106

If anything I tend to screw up when using Dante because I keep trying to rev up with him.

>>16244232

Cavaliere and Kalina Ann 1 and 2 are great. I likely launching a guy with Sparda/Rebellion/DSD, doing the Swordmaster aerial combo and then switching to Cavalieres aerial combo.

>>16244318

It feels like a shitload of effort and love was put into the game, what with Nero having a different animation and voice line for doing a buster on every single enemy, even though half the people that play the game will probably quit after the first run through.

>>16244432

Nero has an arm that imitates the buster, so you can hear those on your first play.

>>16244443

Both Behemoth and the demon made out of Lady have specific animations and lines for them, and you unlock the buster hand much further in the game.

>>16244432

For sure, hell, they even put extra work into the animations. For instance, try charging Nero’s gun with an arm that looks like it’d be hard to grip it with.

It was also neat how they saved an entire gimmick till the last level to be used in future play throughs. I think the last time I beat a game and quickly started it over was DaS. I don’t know what’s going on at capcom but I hope they stick with it.

>>16244510

Yeah, I know, he puts the gun under his arm and reloads one handed, and also there's an A (I think) rank taunt in which he spins the gun in his hand and instantly reloads empowered bullets.

>>16244510

Really feels like they give a shit about repeat play throughs

Good to see some companies actually understand what their core audience wants

>>16244069

>Proto Angelo's are an absolute slog to get through

I'm legitimately stuck on mission 7 for this exact reason. I REALLY don't like how these fuckers just seem to eat damage while refusing to go down. I'm at the point where I'm forced to train in the void so I can perfect parry all of the big sword guy's attacks as Nero which is a first for me. It's a mix between frustration, fun, and exhaustion I don't know how to feel.

>>16244561

Is that on DMD? I didn't have trouble with them on SoS. I've yet to try DMD though

oh man i'm laughing alot

>>16243378

Where did you see Dante do that in the game?

>>16242673

They really should have given Dante that face too now that I think about it. I used to think the opposite but it's grown on me.

>>16244448

Made me want an actual toku series based of dmc, it would be fun.

>>16244919

Not if you win during the Prologue and end the game in 5 mins.

>>16244602

DMD is quite the leap from SoS in terms of the health enemies have.

At least Itsuno brought the difficulty up here on DMD. Still a bit rude to not give you a green orb before a boss fight though.

>>16244657

It's just a matter of practice but when you combine his health with the amount of damage he can dish out it turns into a prolonged battle of not fucking up I'm not used to protracted fights on mooks in DMC games. That said the Riot enemies are probably worse since they'll ALWAYS spawn in groups on DMD and won't stop jumping at you.
