It already exists.
No it doesn't. I only remember DMC1 and 3. Weird they skipped a number.
It's a taboo. Do not speak of it. Official story is this:
"DMC 2's alleged existence is a product of malicious rumors. Such a thing never existed."

They may be adding stealth in DmC?
And for the love of the real Sparda, don't let DmC2 come to light. Or if it does, hire a fucking decent writer.

Looks like it.
Though I'm not sure what they mean by "successful", it could just be that you're successful if you manage to ship a game.
Capcom? Hope not. All my last capcom games sucked(besides SSFIV)... DMC4, Lost Planet, DR2, RE6...
Ninja Theory in the other hand offered much more consistent (and modern) Enslaved, DmC.
If stealth is include, I hope new IP.

You fucking wish.
Nobody's asking for it, but if the game actually got made I'm sure we'd get a bunch of people who never gave a rat's ass about Strider coming out of the woodwork to tell long-time fans to fuck off and that the original series was shit anyway.
More like they have a way with hiring freelance writers who have a way with characters and stories. DmC is the only game they've written mostly on their own, with Alex Garland hired on as story supervisor. They do seem to have a genuine talent for visuals, but that alone doesn't go very far in making a good video game in my opinion. Let's hope a bit of the Dragon's Dogma team rubbed off on whoever's responsible for game mechanics at NT.

Love me some Ninja Theory. I'd be down for DMC2, Enslaved 2, or even a new awesome IP. They just have a way with characters and stories.

What if...Kojima got them to do the MGS1 remake? He said if he could find a passionate studio he'd do it...

Sure. Let's have some dMc2. The franchise is dead anyway.
If the goal is to make Capcom go bankrupt,.
Those elements were like in 90% of the big AAA games this generation though.

I agree. Enslaved was one of the hidden gems of this generation, and I enjoyed DMC even though it's not usually my thing.

I feel this image is relevant to any Ninja Theory thread:
I enjoyed DmC, but that is hilarious.
