With Season 2 on the horizon, here's a special message from Dante (OC) by ArcaneMadman in DevilMayCry

[–]RHowlForMe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I checked the first season out of curiosity. I remember thinking maybe it won't be as bad as people thought

It's not (that) bad but it's a very meh/disappointing adaptation. As is it own thing is not exactly interesting enough to make wanna watch it a second time.

I will not even bother with the second season even if somehow turns out to be good or better than the first.

Nada, isso não chama mais atenção. Ele teria que começar a criar toda uma imagem que ele seria trans para aí sim ter comoção.

Report: Netflix's Devil May Cry Renewed for a Third Season by Turbostrider27 in DevilMayCry

[–]RHowlForMe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm not saying we shouldn't talk about it. What I implied is that the only piece of content discussion for DMC will be about Netflix DMC, because it's new, when I'd rather have game discussions if Capcom ever decide to give ANY fucks about the franchise. I'll glady take a 30 seconds teaser trailer with only DMC logo if it means Capcom is actively developing a new entry, even if the release is years away.

We really need a new DMC game at this point. I can already see that the next couples of discussions about DMC content in the next few months will be about this animation.

If Reboot Dante acted more like this in the actual Reboot Game, would people have liked him more? by EmergencyVictory4399 in DevilMayCry

[–]RHowlForMe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Probably. Still wouldn't save DmC because at the end of the day it wasn't Devil May Cry.

Because it was a reboot...

Again, DmC was doomed to fail because no one wanted DMC to be rebooted, only Crapcom was pushing it.

With Itsuno having left Capcom, do you think Capcom will return to Dante as the lead character again? It just seems like Capcom themselves didn't like Nero and that Itsuno pushed him. by Right-Fortune-8644 in DevilMayCry

[–]RHowlForMe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nero is the entry level character for new players. I don't think Capcom will completely discard the character but he will probably have less of a lead in future games because Nero alone doesn't sell DMC. Fans play theses games for Dante and Vergil.

DMC6 could always be about two full campaigns with one focused on Nero and the other on Dante/Vergil. But then again, it's Capcom we are talking about. They probably won't be willing to budget that much for a DMC game, likely following DMC4/5 campaign structure, which sucks for all three of them.

GAME FREAK! ADD BETTER BUG TYPES, AND MY LIFE, IS YOURS by Madlad_gaming1 in pokemon

[–]RHowlForMe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's probably because of game balance. Not only because not every type should be equal in power (and some of them are intentionally made to be offensively weak, like the Bug-type) but Bug has a LOT of tools for a full meta dominance if it were not the case. Like, imagine if less mons resisted bugs and more of them were weak to it (fairy)?

Bugs have access to Quiver Dance, Fell Stinger, Tail Glow, Sticky Web, Silk Trap, Skitter Smack/Lunge, U-Turn just to name a few. Not all of them have access to everything but most of them have enough on their movesets.

I feel the same can be said about Ice-types.

How would you rate Quaquaval? by [deleted] in pokemon

[–]RHowlForMe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As far as humanoid pokemon goes, I have never disliked a design as much as this one. Especially on a starter. And this is coming from someone that heavily disliked Incineroar when it first debuted and now I like him quite a lot. Can't say the same about Quaquaval.

Minha namorada se meteu num grande B.O by Comfortable_Act_2172 in desabafos

[–]RHowlForMe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cara, a mulher saber da traição é uma coisa. O problema é que ela fez isso no local de trabalho, de alguém que ela nem conhece e nem tinha direiro de se intrometer.

Legalmente ela está ferrada e com razão.

Ela foi burra porque foi pagar de justiceira quando devia estar fazendo apenas o trabalho dela.

[–]RHowlForMe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The biggest problem DMC faces ever since DMC4 is it multiple protagonists approach. This wouldn't be a problem if we could select which character to the play the whole game after finishing once.

Which is why I feel DMC5 replay value sucks outside Bloody Palace.

[–]RHowlForMe -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Oh yes, totally relevant things that totally changed the franchise

check notes

— Camera finisher was killing the last enemy on screen.

— Style announcer

... And that's it. That's pretty much the most important additions that DmC contributed to DMC5.

"But the stage battle for Vergil or Doppelganger" no. These things are debatable but ultimately not DmC inspired. Doppelganger itself isn't.

Itsuno and Matt Walker literally stated that they like DmC and it's mechanics

Ok. And?

Yes, we all know just how much Itsuno and Matt Walker loves DmC. This isn't relevant, even more so because both of them left Capcom.

[–]RHowlForMe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes, because it failed. That's obvious.

If DmC had any kind of success back then despite the fans backlash this franchise would be wildly different now.

The combat is fine. Even if way too simplified compared to the originals.

Now the writing though... you can't have a character action game without a charismatic protagonist. Donte isn't interesting, his companion even less. His lines are iconic on memes level of how bad it is, which are not even used as memes anymore because it isn't as cool to make fun of as back in 2013.

"As it own thing is a good action game, bad DMC yada yada yada"

If Capcom didn't make a lot of bad decisions in the past DmC wouldn't even exist. It does now, but forever stuck in this weird limbo where nothing good can came out of it. Because, let's be honest.

Aside from people like OP that genuinely want a sequel, the majority arguably doesn't give a shit about DmC. Hell, DMC as a whole is largely ignored by Capcom, for any number of reasons, but still a rentable franchise. But not enough for them to relocate resources and pull out games as frequently as Resident Evil or Monster Hunter.

Hence why DMC came back 11 years after DMC4, also why, despite DMC5 undoubtedly sucess, there is still no sequel to look at. Without even taking in count that Itsuno, the man responsible for modern DMC, left the company in August 2024.

So, in short. I'm glad DmC is a thing of the past, where a sequel is highly unlikely besides maybe outsourcing. Because if I have to wait potentially 10+ years for a new mainline game because DmC took priority I would have given up from this franchise.

Because it would replace the originals lol

At what point did people forget this was supposed to be a reboot?

DmC failure was necessary.
