DmC: Devil May Cry

It's OK, I guess. I enjoyed it for what it was but didn't find it to be overly enjoyable or even memorable. I guess I'd still recommend it to fans of the series and genre alike.

It's a good game so far, except for the new Dante and his personality, the characters, and the story was not interesting.

What I didn't like was the poor controls and the frame rate. When you purchase the stinger move, it's supposed to be R1+ triangle just like the previous games. But nope, for this game it's left analong stick up, up and triangle. What were they thinking? Again, the controls are so bad, and the frame rate is the worst.

I recommend playing the Definitive Edition on PS4/Xbox One. It has 60fps, rebalanced and retuned gameplay, 1080p, new game modes, better controls, and it's WAY better than the PS3 version. And that's because PS3 is an overrated console. Play the Definitive Edition instead of the original, pretend it doesn't exist.

I don't get it, is it really every game series have crazy fans who's aggressively refuse to accept any major differences to their favourite game series? Why there is so many negative reviews? Everyone whining like this game called DMC 5, but it's not, this is just a reimagining of the series, like a spin-off or something, why taking this that serious?

Game looking good, average plot, and FUN gameplay, various enemies and fighting styles, one con is that it's not hard in some moments, more casual or arcade style maybe. I liked all hard boss fights in the previous games, but I got some fun playing this more casual one as well, so I don't see the problem here

Good graphics and gameplay, but the characters and story is a shell of its former self. Basically, they sonic boom the characters enough said.

This is one of those games that I always wanted to play, but didn't get around to playing when it first came out. It's now 2021 and I am playing this game for the first time. I was a big fan of the first three original Devil May Cry games on PS2 and I never played Devil May Cry 4 mainly as I never got around to play it and it's trailers did not appeal to me too much even till this day.

This DMC "reboot" however, is a very, VERY challenging game to play. Like DMC 3 this is a very hard game to get through. Even in normal mode. If you're just looking to play for fun, try it on easy "human" mode, which is still not so easy as you may think. As the old DMC games before this, this game is all about the button smashing and combat style. However, there are too many combos to remember and too many new actions to adapt to while playing through out this game.

This game can get both repetitive and frustrating at the same time very quickly. It's the kind of game that you can play for an hour or hour and a half and you will feel like you have reached your limit of playing for each session and yet maybe later in the day or the next day you will be eager to get back to it for another hour or two if you can muster the will.

Aside from this, the visuals for this game stand out and it's quite a marvel for a game that came out back in 2013. The story itself is not so bad and it gives an interesting new take compared to the old DMC games before it. Still, there are a few aspects of the storytelling that may be hit and miss for many. I would not be surprised if some people gave up on this game along the way or just simply played it one time and never again afterwards. The game is just a very challenging one to get through and some bosses are not easy to figure out how to beat as it is. The story doesn't keep you as interested and you just want to play and get through the game instead of sitting through the story. Still, the story is not so bad if you give it a chance.

Overall, even though this is a very challenging game, this is a solid fun to play and beautiful game to look at. It may not be an easy game to play but it continues the traditional DMC games that were hard but worthwhile. This game is not for every one but if you enjoy the old DMC games or games like the Bayonetta series this might be down your alley. I rate it 7 out of 10 stars.
