As much as I see this game I keep thinking that this game isn't even close to Devil May Cry. It's not in the same universe, or with the same characters. Why even call it Devil May Cry if it's not even related? This character isn't Dante, doesn't look like Dante and isn't believable in the least. Why not just make a whole new game with a different character? They'd avoid all the flack and be able to do whatever they wanted.

New DmC: Devil May Cry gameplay [Dante Redesigned Again]

Well not yet anyway. He doesn't have his amulet either.
There is nothing DMC about this game. Like if they didn't explicitly said that this game is called DEVIL MAY CRY and the main guy's name is DANTE... no one would be confusing this with DMC.
Not hating just saying as it is.

'Dante's' new look is better than the drugged, emaciated look of before, but still offensive in a way. But I'll take these baby steps. Maybe I shouldn't give up on this just yet, lol.
That new artwork looks fantastic.
Not really sure how I feel about that gameplay footage. The animations still look overly long, similar to how they were in Heavenly Sword/Enslaved.
Still need a demo to properly judge how it will play. I remember thinking Enslaved looked decent in trailers until the demo came out and I found out that the combat was an unresponsive mess just like Heavenly Sword.

Hopefully Bayonetta 2 or a comparable Kamiya action game gets announced soon.

The redesign looks like a friend I have. Like, same face and hair. I mean, it's better than meth head 'Dante' but now I just think of my friend and not Dante. =/
Liking that pic with Dante and the rubble in the background.
Not liking the E&I redesigns (they look stupid) not liking the sound of there maybe only being 3 weapons (good, neutral and evil). Liking some of the effects like the scythe cutting through the air like it's swishing though a painting/ink or something.
In the end though it's still an NT game on UE3 so won't play anywhere as good as proper DMC. I still like the enemies designs though.

I would make this my avatar if it wasn't for Vergil's BIBLICAL return in UMVC3.

Hmmmmm.... thanks Konami, I would love a nice large helping of Unreal Jank with a side of Ninja Theory floaty controls and some franchise suicide for dessert.

Reach out and touch faith
if this gets Depeche Mode on the soundtrack then I'm fine with this parasitic studio taking over devil may cry.

But what about his return in a DMC game? I thought it was coming (hard), after DMC4.

Talking about Vergil, I wonder what he will be like/look like if he ever appears in DmC (*runs from Dahbomb*)

Was really impressed with the E3 trailer and this new one just confirms that I'm completely on board for this.

It could look worse. He could look like a character from one of the more recent FF's.
I hope this comes to the PC. I would prefer to play this at 60 fps.

Don't mistake a product with good gameplay and a Ninja Theory title.
none of ninja theory's games have been on PC, however a few Devil May Cry games have.
I was actually kinda excited by the first trailer. I mean I love DMC1 and 3, but a combination of actually inviting bold change, and having sorta moved on with Bayo, I liked that they were going nuts with the new one and reinterpreting the core components of the character. Now there's been so much backpedaling on the design, though, that he just kinda looks like a dude. At this point I dunno why they even bother keeping his hair from looking like old Dante's. They could basically just turn it white and everyone would be super comfortable all of a sudden. Sorta.. disappointingly comfortable.
As a game there's like a 4% chance this will scratch the fighting itch established fans of the franchise have anyway, so it's a pointless endeavour to make the character less upsettingly different from the original design. You'll just end up with an inferior action game and a sorta bland pseudo-new Dante instead of the crazy gleeful punk freakout the first trailer suggested.

yes. And seconded on that angel picture being pretty cool (despite the still stupid redesign on dante).
I was never a fan of the original Dante though so it's not that big a deal to me. I'm just pissed at who they handed the game over to.

According to posts so far, that is what's being suggested.
It all came together. This game deals with Hideki Kamiya's early years, kicking ass and seducing Angels. Then he wakes up and realizes he is japanese, and the only thing he has from a memento in his dreams will be all his stuff with british flags in it. He then proceeds to create DMC.
