Berial is pretty good, if a bit of a push-over
Echidna has too many forms, too many limitations and too much flying around

ROFL your posts are becoming a parody of themselves.
You can still use Nelo Angelo in DMC3 and the Vergil design is what he's supposed to look like ie he uses Yamato and is Dante's evil brother. Basically the only thing differentiate old Vergil and new Vergil (and DMC1 Vergil) is hairstyle.

They're cool, but it still amounts to big-ass demon that lumbers around and kind of attacks you here and there.

Yes, in the default configuration both triggers are used for dodge.
Dodge is both in RB and LB, precisely to avoid finger gymnastics.
Yeah you are right. I am dumb sorry.

well i agree.
in fact,dante as never been a single character...in all his incarnations has always been a slightly different character.the first dante is different in dmc2,the young dante is different than the previous 2,and in 4 i think they kinda misses the point of him,with all the musical stuff and such,it's like the 4th dante never grown up,while we've seen him already matured in the first dmc.
but all of these dante were still better than this...as i said,they missed the point of dante as a character,even if you are talking about the semi-serious dante of the first 2 games,or the silly campy dante of dmc 3 and 4,it's still bad,and it's still not dante

Glad I'm right, because hitting both shoulder buttons on the same side is indeed terrible.
This is Yamato?
No. But Yamato is a million times cooler than that giant sword.

Is jumping is still invincible on the way up?

Tensions are rising.
No that's some generic sword attached to the Nelo Angelo armor. Yamato is in DMC1 as an unlockable. Even the early concept images of Vergil has him carrying Yamato.This is Yamato?

Nelo Angelo is what he turns into after he gets beat and mind controlled by Mundus but that's not who he is.
I love the demo. I think the new Dante has a lot of charm as a character. I wouldn't mind having the old Dante's looks back, but this new one will fit in this universe just fine I think.
The demo played well and I always enjoy Ninja Theory's cut scenes and writing. Made a "must buy" impression on me.

I have also seen a "cool parry" in other footage so I guess there are two levels depending on timing.

I see. I edited my previous post but no one will see it so:
As suggested by another poster, the parry is just a normal attack performed at just the right time. It's not a unique command. In case anyone was wondering.
This is Yamato?
Nah, that's not Yamato. Never has been.
Have you ever unlocked the Legendary Dark Knight skin in DMC1?

Two things about that:
1. I can't hear what the hell they're saying; this 'demons' screams make it difficult to hear anything, even during that one grab animation/cutscene (his dialog and Dante's overlap)
2. The Boss HP is bad. From white to yellow to white again. I hope they fix this in the final game.
This much I will agree with. I never really cared for "Dante the Ninja Turtle" in DMC3. As far as I'm concerned, the last time we got to see Dante was in VJ1-PS2.
That said, the same reason I don't like DMC3 Dante is the same reason I don't like his DmC variant. They both come off as focus group-tested and trying to cater to what a mass market thinks as "cool", when what I loved about Kamiya's Dante (and later on, Viewtiful Joe and Bayonetta, as well), was that they were based on what Kamiya thought was "cool".

Let's not forget that Vergil in DMC3 uses some of the attacks from Nelo Angelo in DMC. I thought it was a cool thing and made the character more cohesive...

I thought you had to parry it by using both shoulder buttons? I'm going to try this out later on.
I don't want social commentary in DMC. When I rent this, I bet I'll enjoy the gameplay but despise the story and dialogue.
Lucifer fucking sucks. DMC4 Dante fucking sucks.
Seems some people see him as some sort of gonnagolistentolinkinpark emokid that cuts himself. The only explanation I have is that those people are legally blind and mostly deaf.

The sound is perfect in game. I heard every fuck clearly.

Yea man legally blind, how can people think that?
I'm taking Dante exactly how NT portrays him through there Vid Docs, character art, demos and interviews. It is, to me, an unappealing character. The character art of Dante screaming and inserting his finger into a stab wound is proof of this - that's not a self parody.
EDIT: image I'm referencing. This is the image of new Dante that I don't care for.

Is Vergil the Legendary Dark Knight?

I expressed pretty clearly why Dante doesn't resonate with me. But I am legally blind? Mostly deaf? Sorry you're right, I clearly didn't hear the last image I posted correctly.

But Nelo isn't kawaii enough.
Thank god for this.
He's the Legendary Dark Slayer.
Vergil is the Joker?
