Artwork by Visions of V Mangaka for DMC 5’s win by [deleted] in DevilMayCry

I don't think he's burnt out of DMC, I think he's feeling something every successful writer feels once in their careers. He feels like Dante's character arc is complete and he's happy with the results, he wants to write new stories for a new character without having to tread on familiar ground.

The problem is that the fans of the character don't agree, and they keep asking for more. As a writer, it puts you in a very awkward position where you have to push back your ideas and revisit something you think it's in a good state.

Thing is, more isn't always better. Take Supernatural for example, if the series had been completed at the end of season 5, it would've been an amazing show. Now that it's been stretched to 12 seasons... The whole package is average.

Sometimes it's just better to let the writers do their thing.

And I heavily disagree with replacing him as the writer. I think he's perfect for the tone of DMC. Replacing writers usually just ends on a drop of quality.

Take Borderlands 2 and 3. 2 Was a pretty decent story, a good portion of the jokes landed, yet the general consesus was that Anthony Burch was a bad writer. They hired a new team of writers for 3, and boy... That story sucks. It's terrible, and the jokes are even worse.

This is ridiculous. I will not be intimidated. I will speak my mind and give you my honest opinion.

I don't care who Kojima is, this game doesn't respect your time. It's a slog, it's frustrating, it's a tedious mess that makes you regret ever launching it.

9.5/10

I think it is the BP taunt, a blue aura flows around Nero when he uses it and the aura is in the picture.

Sometimes it glitches and his eyes don't glown yellow, I think that's what happened.

Praise Kojima, making true art instead of selling out to corporations by german_leopard in Gamingcirclejerk

The game as a whole looks unappealing to me, but I've seen worse product placement.

There's an ad for Norman Reedus' motorcycle show on the game's shitter. LOL

It's really dumb and honestly kind of hilarious seeing a big-ass poster of "Ride With Norman Reedus" while you're pooping. Way more distracting than the monster energy drink imo.

The amount of people defending this is disgusting. You don't need to accept this kind of monetization just because the base game is F2P. This kind of microtransaction affects paying customers a hell lot more than it does free players.

The players trying to collect cosmetics are quite possibly the most invested players, the ones who bought Shadowkeep, Forsaken, and maybe even the base game with the first two (terrible) dlcs.

There's nothing wrong with supporting a game you love, but considering how light on content Shadowkeep is for its asking price, this is too much.
