Also, have any nips managed to make V’s gameplay stylish yet? Not that he isn’t fun to play, it’d just be nice to see some high level play with his as he tends to feel a bit button mashy when compared to Dante and Nero.

Using the dual Kalina Ann makes Griffin and Shadow a cake walk. Once their taken care of you can pretty much go nuts on Nightmare without having to worry to much.

I've got a trial on the 29th so I'm not looking forward to time advancing, but it will be a nice reward for bearing it. I'm alternating between son of sparda stuck on the mission where V gets his pets back and going back to devil hunter for S ranks.

I wish I was a high-level player, having played the original DMC1 almost at launch, but I'm not. Doesn't keep me from loving me some DMC though.

Have the S-ranks up through M18 on DMD, should have it wrapped up tomorrow. You definitely have to self-challenge when it comes to ranks because the continue system is way too forgiving. I guess DMC4 and DMC3SE already established that, though.

I'm glad DMC5's DMD is tougher than DMC4's, but I still don't think they've really found a way to make the game challenging for Nero, if you have the slightest idea what you're doing you can absolutely annihilate everything. I think the only boss of his that got a noticeable difficulty bump was Artemis. Dante's missions are a bit tougher, but even then Urizen and King Cerberus weren't as tough as I was anticipating, I was pretty apprehensive going into those missions.

>>16290452

>I got my ass devastated by the Mallet Island Crew which I'm happy about, they were too easy on Devil Hunter.

An easy way to rack damage on Nightmare there is to wait until he tries to heal the other two, and then distort a Real Impact, it catches all three of them. You can go from there into SDT if you have it, and if Nightmare's in the right position you can even jump cancel out of SDT's cooldown.

>Also, have any nips managed to make V’s gameplay stylish yet?

Donguri's uploaded I think three combo mads and they all used the same V clip, which was just a simple juggle, so I think not.

Well, he seems to have no good means of cancellation, so I don't foresee any scenario where he has the same kind of depth as any other DMC character, but I could see how careful positioning and precise timing between Shadow and Griffin could allow for some style. I used to be frustrated that inputs didn't buffer during their spawning animations but I think they actually do, my inputs were just getting lost because I was trying to spam the input to get it in.

That said I just about drove myself nuts taking on Goliath with Shadow in M14 DMD, you really notice how uncooperative the summons are when there's only one out. If there really is no depth to V then he's a fucking weird inclusion in this game.

Isn't that self-evident though? He always was a completely alien sort of gameplay, it looked like it since his reveal, it played like it, it looked like it story wise, and he fucks off partway through the game to quit the bullshit and become Vergil. I understand the assumption that anyone in the series would be stylish, but if you're going to make someone be nothing but a strategist, V is how you'd do it. He has no pretense but to be a frail dweeb who offers an entirely different take on gameplay.

Right, that's what I meant by uncooperative, it's trivial to avoid getting stalemated but it's an absolute nightmare when Shadow runs away from the boss after a side dodge, only running back in exactly when the window for an attack is closing. You can kind of buy time by charging his spike attack during the dodge so that he'll be ready to use it by the time he runs to Goliath, but still, with that much input delay you may as well be sending the commands by semaphore.

>>16290544

>Isn't that self-evident though? He always was a completely alien sort of gameplay, it looked like it since his reveal

Well I avoided all trailers after the reveal, so it was a surprise to me. At least he's only required for four mandatory missions, but I can't say I understand his inclusion, even with your rationalization. I get that it's a reprieve pacing-wise between two high-octane characters and there are story contrivances as to why he plays the way he does, but he's still in the game fighting the same enemies as everyone else.

>>16290444 (checked)

I'm iffy at how this game handles difficulty and mission rankings. For one, it gives away S ranks too easily and dying doesn't penalize you much. If you revive once you'd get knocked down to A rank provided you didn't fuck up the mission, whereas in previous games dying meant a C-D rank. There was this one battle I had with Artemis on DMD, I died twice then revived with Red Orbs but the third time I said fuck it, abandon the mission and restarted from a checkpoint, I killed the boss and still got an S rank at the end, it gave me DmC flashbacks and I didn't like that one bit. This wouldn't bother me as much if this game had ranks above S like in DMC3 where getting SS meant not getting hit on top of finishing the mission fast and stylish.

That said, I'm quite pleased at how DMD plays, I'd say is the best DMD mode in all of the series, then again you can still brute force your way through most missions on DMD and still get S ranks, not the last 4 missions though you can't brute force those.

>>16290492

If you are DMC3-4 autist with hundreds of hours in those games getting carpal tunnel syndrome from learning how to do half decent combos like I did then you might not like how slow and floaty the combat feels at first glance, however, I think this change is for the better because it lowers the barrier of entry for air combos without sacrificing depth and depth is what this game has in spades. Other than that, what I pointed above and some minor personal gripes, DMC5 is top of its genre.

I like the "palate cleanser" theory, mainly because, on the first play through, I was getting stressed out, and his chapters were a nice breather, not too long, not too short, and the way he played wasn't too difficult or stressful to get A or higher with.

My only real complaint is, once you're comfortable with the changes, and Nero and Dante, and are ready to go into NG+ on a higher difficulties V's chapters sort of become groaners especially with the absence of Bloody palace at launch it's the main reason I stopped at SOS difficulty near chapter 14 or so, I can wait for bloody palace, and I know V's chapters are short enough, but after the first playthrough, they become less "relaxing diversions" and absolute pace killers.

I see the rationale behind his inclusion and his playstyle is fun enough, but they really should have made his missions optional on a second playthrough.

V has by far the most OONGA BOONGA gameplay of any videogame character that i ever played in my life.

Mashing 2 buttons while stretching my hands to walk around and what not isnt really that cool or crazy, but walking around reading a poem and getting SSS ranks BY OOGA CHACKA BUTTON MASH while Dante and Nero players have to struggle all over enemies for even an SS rank is fucking hilarious.

I bought the regular edition and I really enjoyed it. I have yet to finish DMD, but I have unlocked Vergil's EX and V's EX costumes somehow. Probably not going to S rank all mission, but I can try to some extent. I might buy the inevitable special edition when it comes out in roughly a year.

>>16290586

I made the first DMC5 thread when it was revealed at E3 and pretty much called it DmC2. I've since changed those thoughts. So I can understand why somebody would call it DmC2 on some level prior to release, but not now, when the game is already out for all to see.

Well, depends on the game, in some missions in DMC3SE you can still get the S rank on DMD after dying (as long as you're playing on Gold mode) and DMC4's the same. At least the results screen displays objective information you can use to gauge how well you did against the S rank, over 20,000 points in my experience, but it's a shame they didn't canonize it as an SS rank, since it's a matter of graphic design at that point.

>>16290588

Right, it's the same way I feel about the Arkham fight in DMC3. I get that it's an intentionally underwhelming fight, but when you have to take it seriously it's insufferable.

Nothing in DMC2 or 4 was as bad as every second Nico is on screen. Her and Nero are easily the worst parts story wise. The end is especially bad because they know it's garbage and just try to handwave it away. Like V's not that bad aside from whatever the fuck his final boss was, and I can't help but think they cut whatever it was supposed to be.

Also yes, fanservice is always shitty if it's nothing but fanservice for the sake of fanservice. You can easily cut out almost all of dante's scenes and lose nothing for the overall progression of the plot because he's almost entirely just fanservice. Which is awful because they forgot how to write him.

She's literally DmC level of writing. Like even early on she's awful and never gets better. Ignoring the teleporting car even though they make a point earlier that she can't drive to certain areas. The "up your butt" scene could be put word for word in DmC and fit with "squirrel semen" girl. It's the same shitty one off for "epic shock value laughs" that DmC did over and over again. Now DmC is way worse because it does this for the entire game and not just when one combo of characters is on screen.

about half way through SoS and it's pretty easy compared to the first run. haven't played DMC in awhile so i was a bit rusty.

difficulty is definitely less than DMC3. i remember being slaughtered by new bosses a dozen times before winning the first fight. that only really happened on vergil.

other than that the game is pretty much all i could have hoped for. just wish they had more music options and i didnt have to buy the few ones there with microtransaction bullshit instead of unlocking them.

Even at their best, souls games are hardly about fun. And Sekiro is…confusing in how much of a hot mess it is. It's a result of wanting to not make a souls game while still making a souls game, and apparently forgetting everything you learned along the way making souls games. I stopped being surprised by everyone's shit taste years ago, but this time around I genuinely can't comprehend how journos and normalfags can bring themselves to praise it. Liking it despite its flaws is one thing, but calling it good? Fuck no.

Yeah, that's a good way of putting it. I was really hoping they were going to make a more straight up action game and drop the Souls shit they have been known for for a decade now. To my surprise, they kept a good chunk of it in there and what new things there are are nothing special. Stealth and grapple hook gimmicks are fun for five minutes but then we have the gameplay. Its more of a chore than anything else, to the point I'm already sneaking and running past enemies to get to the damage sponge boss or mini boss.

You can spam parry when you need to with little punishment which I don't think is a good thing. If you're parrying and attacking bosses aggressively the fights are quick.

>>16291141

It's not even a matter of gitting gud. I've just seen posts talking about how pretty easy bosses like Lady Butterfly and Genichiro are bullshit when they're trying to play it like a Souls game and doing chip damage after a boss whiffs. Which makes them slower and harder than they're supposed to be. I think From did a poor job of really teaching how you're intended to fight them, especially when the first 'real' boss spends so much time running around and doing big telegraphed attacks that are more intuitive to dodge than parry.

Here's the thing, my first instinct was to parry Lady Butterfly, but even trying my best to get perfect parry, she just took less posture damage than me. So either you have to get perfect parries even better than the ones that send enemies reeling, my game is buggy for some reason (and hearing no lines of dialogue outside of cinematics, I fucking hope it is), or it's a badly designed game that wants you to play it one specific way that is not invited by the gameplay mechanics otherwise. I'm frankly insulted it is being touted as better than Nioh because it's by From.

Posture recovery is based on health remaining, so at full health it recovers quickly and then slower and slower as health goes down, and that applies to you too. Which can give the illusion that you'd be in a losing posture battle initially. If you keep on their ass you'll break their guard at something like 30-40% health from what I've seen. Just to be clear, I'm not defending the design. I'm with >>16291150 in that I like the overall feel From has with their games that I'll deal with the shallow combat to see it through.

>my game is buggy for some reason (and hearing no lines of dialogue outside of cinematics, I fucking hope it is)

I saw MP4 related, For fun I did the calculations. Adding up all the Red Orb DLC which you can only buy once each, you get 2,100,000 red orbs. This fully powered attack takes 150,000 orbs.

So if someone were to buy all the Red Orb DLC for $42, you can only use that attack 14 times. That's would be $3 per attack.

Strongly disagree, DMC4 probably has the highest technical skill ceiling but the campaign itself is stupidly easy. Partly due to how enemy DT works, partly due to what enemies are like and how few you fight at a time. In terms of difficulty I'd say it goes:

DmC < DMC2 < DMC4 < DMC5 < DMC1 < DMC3

Outside of bosses, I'd actually say that DmC is harder than DMC5. The (insanely stupid) red and blue mechanics are mainly to blame for that. Of course the bosses are almost trivially easy.

I replayed it a few weeks before DMC5 came out and the color coding's actually a lot less prevalent than I remember, but I don't think I could say any normal mob in DmC is harder than 5 when Aquila has a move that snatches literally every enemy in the room towards you. Maybe the Dreamrunners, but even then, the counter windows are a mile wide.

>Then again, DMC in general has never been a very hard game.

I don't know, I think DMD is genuinely challenging on its own, in 1 and 3 anyway. Maybe not so much if you're willing to scrub out continues and use items, so you're right on the second part.

You can Sky Star / Air Hike twice with the Summoned Swords out and three times in DT, right? Seems like that's snappy enough, although the coolest part of Guard Flying was the input itself. It seems like the combat engine does have some semblance of inertia, I was watching Donguri's earlier play and it looked like he was experimenting with tossing enemies from one side of the arena and catching them on the other.

Also it could be my imagination but it feels like Vergil is slightly easier on DMD than on SoS, for Nero anyway. The damage numbers are objectively higher but it feels like he's a little less aggressive. I want to try Vergil again as Dante without using SDT. Really I'd like to do the entire game like that at some point, it's a bad habit to use it as a panic button that halves the boss' HP.

That attack is Forward Gunslinger, it's called Red Hot Night, it's fully charged to level 4, and it's with Dr. Faust level 4.

DMC5 is the amalgamation of all ideas and plot lines for the entire series not just DMC3.

I don't blame people for liking 3 the most, but It gets on my nerves how people act like it's the only game in this series that exists.

There is just as much from DMC1 in 5 as 3, the Prequel novel respected DMC2's place in the series. Everything about Nero in 5 works because of what DMC4 setup. everything about V is turning the events of DMC1 into a character you can play as.

I think this might be what I'm getting at though. Controlling dante in 4 is much harder than controlling him in 3 and 5. Since the hardest levels in 4 are the dante levels I think 4 has the highest technical skill ceiling but honestly yea you are right the campaign isn't that hard and honestly it's a pretty shitty campaign anyway.

>>16291551

Nightmare is for people who rely on a devil trigger to save them from a shitty situation, forcing good players to expend it so they don't actively lose DT points. What you use DT on is powering up your pets, and then you mash your trick button to smack the enemies until they start attacking, then you dodge away and you're right there to start attacking again.

>>16292327

The mode requires you do do shit like bait out fights and use dodges more than just walking in and shooting things, since when everything dies in one hit you are getting about 2 style points on hit. An S rank HoH requires you to be playing a very sturdy royal guard and only using a just release at max power. Anything less and you'll eat shit and the enemies won't give you enough style.

>>16292483

>no costumes other than Ex-costume

HOH is one difficulty that should've been left on the cutting room floor because it's a pain in the ass to get good ranks on it and it makes the game a cake walk. HAH shouldn't be a difficulty but a modifier i.e once you beat DMD you unlock HAH modifier for all other difficulties and if you beat the mission with it you'd get another S added to your rank. They could even implement Must Style Mode as another modifier so you'd get SSS.

Kind of, although they're more chicken and don't parry you as aggressively. Dreamrunners were the only DmC enemies I even came close to liking, so that was nice to see.

>3 enemies in the game that become invulnerable and teleport around/float to places where you can't do damage to them

Yeah, once you get to DMD those Lusachias are absolutely panic-inducing since they're way harder to stagger and harass you with projectiles relentlessly. I like the idea of those sort of supplemental enemy types, though, a Hell Judecca in a mob keeps things lively.

>>16293880

>Wew just beat Vergil on SoS with Dante. Had to cheese the fuck out of it at the end with Summon Round Trips though. Still got my S.

Congrats, it was nice to see how much more subtly aggressive they made him, it was a very DMC3-style moment. Protip you can parry his summoned swords with Rolling Blaze, and when he goes into DT and uses the Blistering Swords formation you can use a dive kick to parry them all at once.

>Any advice for fighting SoS Vergil with Nero?

It's definitely harder to match him move for move without Dante's defensive options. I keep the pressure up while he's attacking with charged shots and summoned swords, and then punish after he's finished his combos, although on SoS and DMD you'll want to use either Caliber or Payline to close the gap since the timing is tighter. It seems like you can keep a juggle going longer if you keep hitting the Ex timings, but no promises there, that's just a theory. Don't forget to use your Devil Breakers' breakage moves, they're useful for a lot of situations in this fight. Gerbera's Petal Ray while the Doppelganger's out, Overture's mines when Vergil tries to set up a Judgment Cut, etc.

You can also Buster counter Vergil's dive move when he goes into his SDT form, it doesn't do much damage but it's very stylish and satisfying. If you want to be cheeky about it you can use Ragtime's breakage move to freeze time while he's diving towards you, you can still get the counter by Bustering him while time's frozen.

It's not too bad though. I love the game and I don't mind replaying through it again. On the bright side it seems to run a lot better now.

If you don't mind sharing your save file I only have one question: Have you S ranked all of DMD? I was recently trying to S rank all of it so I kinda don't want a save file that already has it done.

I actually have a Tweet now with over 100 likes basically saying while Devil May Cry is over the top, it's can also be subtle with it's story telling, at least it's subtle enough that the reputation of DMC is that it doesn't have a story at all.

It does get very annoying hen fighting many enemies at the same time, but on duels Sekiro's superb.

That's BS. You have an arsenal of skills at your disposal and you're saying this difficulty is good because you are forced to use one of those tools. By the way you can jump cancel, taunt, perfect dodge, parry and royal block to build your style without killing the enemies but it still shit because you're letting them dictate the pace of the fights and relying on that only works well with high tier enemies and bosses because they're actually aggressive. Heaven or Hell has been a shit difficulty since 4 and unless you're going for a self imposed challenge limiting your options is never a good thing in these kinds of games.

The strawberry sundaes are actually a nod to the prequel novel, which came out in Japan before Gintama was published in WSJ. But yeah, the DMC anime was clearly inspired by Gintama.

And just as an aside, it seems the novel has been brought back into canon thanks to the DMC5 prequel novel. Some things are retconned, like Gilver is now an Angelo Demon created from Vergil's combat data rather than Vergil himself, as was originally intended.

FWI, I am not really in favor of rampant misogynation but the constant unnecessary Wignat virtue signalinging is just as obnoxious as when leftist virtue signaling. Sometimes its best to just keep it to yourself. Over time there is going to be a growing number of people sick of how people like you always seem obsessed with interjecting the topic into everything. It's fucking cringe instead of crying about race, go to the gym, get fit and try find a wife. Be the change you wish to see in the world, stop bitching about what other people do.

I just think it would be a damn shame if DMC5 has literally every main character in the series except her.

The way I see it, is if Character DLC happened then Vergil, Lady, and Trish, are already a given since their models are already done, Lucia would be the only one that needs pointed out as something to add.

>DMC2 Phantom fight

That might've been the single most disappointing part of DMC2. I remember when he popped up out of nowhere, I was so excited because Phantom was great in DMC1, and I figured that this boss could be the saving grace of DMC2, even if it was weird that the first boss of the last game was showing up on the last stretch of this game. But no, he sucked just like everything else in the game. No banter, piss-easy, etc. Who the fuck thought DMC2 was a good idea?

DMC2 wasn't so much of an idea as it was as it was a Knee Jerk reaction to DMC1's success. DMC2 was approved to be made before DMC1 even hit over seas.

all of this flaws can be pinned on the higher ups rushing it out the door for a quick buck. since No one from Team Little Devils was even put on the DMC2 team, that Team had no idea what the hell they were doing, given the fact that DMC1 was revolutionary, If Itsuno wasn't made the replacement director in the last few months then DMC2 would have been an even bigger trainwreck.

The only thing they thought to do was to make it "Bigger" then DMC1 in the literal sense, Bigger environments, more playable characters, more bosses ect… I'm willing to bet the only reason Phantom even shows up in DMC2 is simply because they had his assets to reuse. when fighting Agrosax the Chaos, you can see DMC1 Griffon is with in the boss despite not being a boss previously in the game.

DMC1 Dante's costume is also in the game, and Trish reuses tons of the assets from DMC1 Dante's combat.

Allot of DMC2 is clearly them trying to hobble a game together despite not having a clear plan, funny enough I think thanks to the fact there are 2 campaigns, DMC2 actually has the most boss encounters in the series.

Well, maybe, Dante's and Lucia's campaigns are mostly unique but there are a few repeats. If you're counting minibosses DMC3 had 13, though, which is a pretty high bar.

Did you like that King Cerberus was a nod to Trismagia? I'd assume they tried to keep the DMC2 references a little more subtle.

This fucking fight in DMD is such a difficulty spike compared to SOS. I got stuck with AI controlled V at every attempt, and on this run he was ko'd within the first minute, leaving me to take on every Angelo solo. On the plus side, I got to take this screenshot

Seems like the best way to deal with them is, once all shield angelos have been dealt with, to parry his attacks. Otherwise he won't recoil when receiving damage once he enters his DT state. Also perhaps it is my imagination, but it feels like they took a lot more damage after being parried and knocked down. Or just equip a Buster Arm, activate DT and overcharge it, you will 1-hit kill it if it hasn't entered DT state yet.

>>16307650

>Seems like the best way to deal with them is, once all shield angelos have been dealt with, to parry his attacks.

That's right, it seems like he takes more damage after a parry than if you just wait for his recovery frames. You want to parry while the other ones are still out, though, if you parry Proto Angelo's charged sword it'll shatter all of the others' shields.

I think I might've found new tech for Dante, I say this because I haven't seen it used in the many Combo MADs I've watched.

Perform Air Mustang on an enemy and as soon as Dante starts the flip animation switch to Royal Guard, using it with air combos is somewhat tricky because of strict timing. You can also use Air Mustang Rainstorm.

Yeah. There's a bunch of cosmetic mods already available. Its hard to see in the original pic, but I'm using DMC4 Nero hair alongside it.

>>16307180

>>16307650

My main strategy was to take care of the smaller Angelos, build up DT from them, and hit wannabe-Nelo with Showdown and Buster. I think I screwed up the input on overcharging the arm and it played the normal animation, during which one of the smaller ones smacked me and broke it. After killing them, he pulled his Devil Trigger and the fight turned into a nightmare of me spamming Blue Rose charge shots, Showdowns, and the Devil Bringer arm. I'm trying to git gud with parrying as Nero, but I can never land on the right frame. I've had a much easier time with Dante though since Cerberus tends to always parry its first swing. I ended up JUST missing the S rank, so I'll have to play it through once more.

>>16308231

>I'm sure they doubled the enemy HP to account for co-op.

Thats what I was thinking. Proto Angelos get a defense buff from low health and DT, which when stacked results in a 4x defense buff. I don't have too much trouble typically, but this guy had higher HP and power due to being a boss, so he was the equivalent to fighting a tank with a rusty fork. I can only imagine what this fight is like as V solo. That said, it was fun getting my shit handed back to me by an enemy that wasn't a Fury. Definitely one of the most challenging parts in the game for me outside of Mission 19.

I've seen one YT video promoting that as the new Flying Guard, otherwise I don't think many people are aware of it.

They replace textures/models already in the game. The Devil Bringer mod, for example, has different files for choosing to replace every Devil Breaker in the game and your human arm, or just your human arm and leave the Breakers intact. I don't know if modders can add them in as standalone costumes alongside the already existing ones.

>>16309523

I'm pretty sure Matt Walker said no additional costumes since it took a ton of money to just produce the already existing costumes.

That kind of sounds like horseshit considering REmake 2 had a bunch of alternate costumes, though I'm not sure how different the two games' budgets are. Even if they're just texture swaps, it's a real shame that the only costumes in the game are pre-order DLC.

Damn near everything in the Deluxe edition should have been in the base game. DMCV is sparse when it comes to unlockables, especially when you compare it to the rest of the series. I shouldn't have to pay $20 for bonuses that would have been free in DMC4.

you had a shit v look what I did on one run on that level. I got paired with a shit tier nero so I just styled the fuck out of those guys(it's like they were made to be V jobbers)

Fighting them with nero is a bit harder but honestly once they are in the air the others can't do jack shit you just gotta juggle them till death also helps if you are charging the fuck out of your pistol.

That's not the Faust Hat, it's the Devil Sword Dante. Using it with Swordmaster gives you summoned swords that perform different attacks. The move was lock on + back + style

>>16309842

That's Capcom being lazy, they could use already existing materials from the clothing they have in the game and make something. Not everything has to be photo-scanned to look good. There's a guy making some decent skins for Resident Evil 2, let's hope it inspires modelers to do the same in DMC5 and I'd love for the guy who fixed the female faces in RE2 to take a shot at it too.

That was the same problem I had with V at first. You really have to totally slow your brain down and turn into a methodical machine before he'll click. Pay attention, hang back from the crowds prioritize and watch what you're locked on to and always have one AoE (Shadow's Hedgehog, Gryphon's lightning lines) charging and let it loose when you've got at least two enemies bunched together close enough you'll know it'll hit. Gryphon's forward on stick + attack charge/go for the eyes attack is also really really good and can lead into having most smaller enemies airbourne so you can let loose with Shadow's juggle combo but keep an eye on V while doing this to make sure that no demon rapes you while you're unaware.

DMCV being good despite the decaying industry just fills me with joy. Seeing one of my favorite game franchises reclaim its place in the spotlight after being sent to Capcom's chopping block is euphoric, not to mention the quality of DMC threads have gotten a lot better.

>>16310423

>someone else who finally understands V

We are two of soul

>>16310411

Think of Shadow and Griffon as extensions of V. Keep V off to the sidelines as best you can. You'll need to micromanage and strategize when playing as V. Dodge backwards to summon Griffon over to you, or to the sides to summon Shadow to you. If they're about to take a big hit, use this to get them out of harm's way. On DMD, limit your Devil Trigger usage until you're either cornered, have taken damage, or one of your summons is ko'd. Most people tend to just spam it with V, but relying entirely on Nightmare and invincible summons won't help you git gud with him. An easy strategy is to use charged attacks with Griffon while attacking enemies with Shadow. Shadow's moveset is pretty decent and Griffon's charged attacks are easy to execute. Alternatively, charging Shadow's Hedgehog heh will get the job done too. Once you figure out V, he becomes the most lovable character. The worst part about being a Vfag is knowing the character will never appear again.

SPLIT ITSELF IN TWOOOOO

>>16310463

I went into 5 with my Nero game being pretty strong but have lately gotten really bad with him again especially compared to my 4 Nero game. Most I can recommend is what Nero loses in the weapon variety of Dante he more than makes up for with the myriad of move variety, with one maneuver to suit almost any situation. Try and learn all his timing press combos off by heart, then try and splice revving into those combos and see if you can go for a Max-Act, don't forget about Calibre and Shuffle (or whatever the aerial back to forward on stick + attack move is), keep an eye on which Devil Breaker you've got and use them accordingly (Rawhide legitmately best on account of upgraded grabbing AND some of Nero's best possible crowd control) lay into enemies with some charge shots when you need a dose of style points or just what to chip away, quite frankly I don't use Blue Rose as much as I should as I'm more preferable to grabbing enemies and cutting them up. The biggest most glaring downside to Nero that is very apparent in 5 over 4 is his complete lack of very effective defensive moves compared to Dante, Table Hopper I find to be too obtuse to use effectively and most of the time I've used them I did so accidentally and no more is this point exemplified than against the last boss when you've also fought the same boss as Dante.

I have found you don't really need to be stylish with Nero to get points. I never really used his arms bar the Buster one and I mainly abused exceed and max exceed combos with him and got S ranks. His points seem to rely heavily on using exceed from what I have seen.

This is how I feel. I feel clunky like hellboy because no tricksteresque moves and I was talking about charging blue rose and max act but when you are playing DMD mode things become much more complicated to pull of timed acts when you are in the middle of fights. Table hopper is another thing like charging your sword mid fight that is a "hit it at this exact frame" kind of shit that goes one. You just have to be more passive with him and play defense alot. With V and Dante i'm mainly playing pure offense.

I posted my playthrough in the thread and mainly I just have trouble seriously styling in DMD mode with Nero.

I wouldn't necessarily say they have bad design but even on my first playthrough I did find myself wondering why so many of the new enemies were lizards. Off the top of my head there's the Riot, Fury, Behemoth and the Chaos. I'm convinced one of the enemy designers has a pet gecko or something.

I kind of wish 5's enemies were more inventive in general. The Hell Caina are like the Seven Hells, the Scudo/Proto Angelos are sort of analagous to Bianco/Alto Angelos (and Nelo of course), Nobodies are back, Sin Scissors are back, Flambats are essentially back and then a chunk of the new ones are vaguely similar-looking lizards. Although all the returning enemies have new tricks and you're fighting them with very different movesets, so I guess it isn't really that much of an issue.

I don't have any complaints in terms of actually fighting 5's enemies apart from the Fury and the Judecca, both of whom I find a bit restrictive and inconsistent. The rest I found pretty enjoyable apart from devil triggered Behemoths.

>I kind of wish 5's enemies were more inventive in general.

It is a shame that the enemy roster is mostly a greatest hits of the series, although they chose pretty solid entries. Those Pyrobats may look like Flambats but their moveset is actually a lot closer to the Plasmas' bat form in DMC1. As long as they're picking and choosing older enemies I wouldn't mind seeing some Fetishes or Arachne.

That said I'm not willing to pass judgment too quickly on the enemies, I would have had some harsh words to say about the enemy variety in DMC3 also but I've warmed up to it over time. 5's enemies don't seem to have any particular low points like Kyklops, OG Nobodies, the Fallen, chimeric enemies, etc. I guess there are those Furies.

>I don't have any complaints in terms of actually fighting 5's enemies apart from the Fury and the Judecca

I'm fine with Judecca since they always appear in a mob, the Furies are just awful. I'd rather fight a Blitz than a Fury, at least the Royal Guard strategy is more fun. And I'd rather fight three Shadows than a Blitz.

I also rescind my statement that nero did not get more depth; he certainly did, but the breakers as a system are kinda trashy and situational, as opposed to dante's stone-wall of a moveset that, when you get to the top of it, still grants more to see in the ways of improving and expanding

Not really new. Royal Revenge reflects any direct or indirect damage back to the enemy and it also works as an universal block/parry for everything and I do mean everything, even the gusts of wind done by Urizen.

You can skip them, in fact you can skip 99.9% of the cutscenes, the only "cutscene" you can't skip that I've found is the one at the start of the King Cerberus fight, when he does the explosion.

Bloody Palace is fun. Shame about the lack of co-op.

Bloody Palace update added nothing, it was already in the game accessible with a trainer and there's no difference.

What the fuck did Capcom do for a month?

Neither did I, the boss was on SoS.

Mark you're saying you spent literally every single gold orb the game gave for free in SoS? There's not even enough boss fights for that unless you actually died multiple times per boss like a fucking scrub

everyone and their mother swore there was a co-op, I guess that wasn't true?

data miners supposedly found "matchmaking settings" within the game's code so everyone assumed that bloody palace was delayed because they were making sure the online was going to work. Yet it's out and not a shred of evidence that there's coop.

Seriously Capcom, what the fuck are you doing?
