I was bored.
Didn't notice the thunder thighs before.

yeah this is an unassailable argument these days. Capcom started off real promising this gen too :/
Capcom started out my favorite third-party developer this generation.

And now...well...damn.

Resident Evil 5 came out and it's been a swift decline.

people often talk about story and graphics on this site more than gameplay. it's weird.
Maybe people would just rather be positive for once. We've dumped on this game for as long as we've known of its existence and this trailer offers very little to change anyone's mind about all the bad shit we've said about Ninja Theory, UE3 (30 fps), and the shitty character design. We've been there and done that at least half a dozen threads already. Until we've actually got it in our hands (not some brown-nosing member of the press') what more can we say about the gameplay? The angel picture on the other hand is at least something we can talk positively about in a DmC thread.
 
I'm so tired of everyone trashing Capcom. They've made some stupid moves lately but that doesn't negate the great/good games they've made this gen.

I have no comment on this game( I haven;t played it and I'm not good enough to spot framerate like that so yeah) but damn some people act like they haven't made any good games lately. Their fighting games are all on point and Monster Hunter Tri was awesome, Ghost Trick is the shit. Sure they're games have flaws but none of them are trash (not that I know of...I could be wrong).

Geez, I'm just tired of seeing so many troll post saying Capcom is the worst. They are the best 3rd part Japanese company ( and one of the top 3rd prt companies world wide).

I do too. I really don't understand the hate. I will admit it's not a great design, but it's by no means a horrible design like everyone is saying.
Acquiescence said:
Yeah same here. The first design where he recalled the lead singer of My Chemical Romance was disastrous, but I like what's been done with him now. Hopefully the remodelling is done and they'll leave him well enough alone now.
Brofist. But then again, I wasn't a part of hysteria surrounding the revelation of tameem Dante.

In any case, the more important issue is the 30fps rate, and NT just doesn't understand why it's so important in a fast paced melee combat game.
 
Gotta say, it looks better every time they release more media of it. However, as die hard DMC fan, I'm sad to see the absence of both the Stinger and Thousand Heart Stab so far. No other combination of moves in action game history has been able to top the bad assery of that combo.
 
looks good to me. but i just like a fun action game. i'm not a 60 fps move cancel 85 combo action dude. i still think the action genre needs better storytelling, or at least a more seamless way to progress through the game, as opposed to sitting through painfully dull and confusing cutscenes.
 
I don't see any difference. Old Dante looked kind of disfigured and so does this one. Now his hair is a little different.

He looks less of a meth addict, and he's been eating too.

yeah, i guess my comment doesn't make sense in a thread about a game that isn't out yet.

one other positive is that Capcom employees who worked on DMC in the past are helping with the gameplay. The game not being 60fps doesn't give me hope that it'll live up to Devil May Cry, but hey, it might be the best Ninja Theory game yet!

I'm not opposed to beautiful but shallow games (though Heavenly Sword and Enslaved are definitely too shallow.)

HALAL EDITION

Lol. You dont even need to hide dantes hand. You just have to change the finger position as to where its not making a symbol. Also, some ass and boob showing is okay, if other boxart that was allowed is to go by.

probably people who played Heavenly Sword/Enslaved

I was thinking more along the lines of die-hard DMC fans who refuse to keep an open mind and at least give the new direction a chance before just pre-maturely writing it off. I actually loved Heavenly Sword to death and thought Enslaved was decent. Overall, I really like Ninja Theory and am excited to see what they do with this. You never know, it might end up being fun. Which is all I really care about in the end.

The moment they give me a good reason to be hopeful I will be.

Thus far there hasn't been one. If by some miracle the game turns out to have combat on the Lvl of Devil May Cry 1/3/4 I will be more then happy to eat crow and admit I was wrong.

As it stands having a game at 30 by the team that made HS isn't something to be excited about and that has nothing to do with being a die hard DMC fan, it has everything to do with not letting someone who has released nothing above a mid tier product to me, get me hyped for a reboot I didn't want or ask for.

Capcom unity has the trailer up and it looks a lot smoother than the one linked here in the original post. Weird. Hm.

Yeah, it does. I'm hoping Gamersyde will upload the trailer. I don't really trust youtube to give an accurate representation of FPS.

Nope. No chance.

Even it is passable people will consider it a failure.

Heavenly Sword failed to meet expectations but wasn't a complete failure( mediocre for sure) but because it was supposed to be the shit people hate it.

Every game has to be near perfect for Gaf these days. No exceptions.

This game is doomed. Nothing NT can do will satisfy the fans which is sad but the way it is.\ for established series. (DMC3 and DMC4 are some of my favorite games of all time too)

Doomed or not, I think it is looking pretty slick. Looking forward to seeing more.
 
I think TruePrime's post is a good response to the claim that fans are somehow unpleasable.

People have been very clear about what would "satisfy" them from day one. Most people I've seen have been consistent: they haven't moved goal posts or changed their standard. They just want a game that matches the past entries. Wanting the game to meet the standards of the past games is a bare minimum not some unreachable goal of near perfection. And it is not at all an unreasonable standard to have.
 
It's amazing how much titties and ass can do to a man's hate. Hell, I don't even give a shit about dante anymore, just bring on more of those angels.

Folks here are extremely sensitive to his dietary and possible narcotic-related behaviors, apparently.

He looks very different. I think time has helped you to forget what the original concept looked like. Each new reveal of this game has changed Dante every time.

I'm kinda confused as to why people are going apeshit over the angel artwork. It's nice, but those angels aren't that fappable.

Oh please, has nothing to do with mind hive-gaf and all to do with

X developer is taking away features people like about Y series.

well technically it is. He just shares the name Dante
When I say "new series" I mean non-DMC related... in any fashion.

Not an ass man, eh? Don't feel bad, no ones perfect.

That's all fine and I agree but at least play it before condemning it. I thought Enslaved was gonna be trash from the trailers but then I played it and found it to be a solid if flawed game.

Give it a damn chance.
