5 Reasons Why the Devil May Cry Reboot Wont Suck
Words by Angelina Montanez

When Capcom unveiled the initial trailer for the Devil May Cry reboot, the dramatic redesign of Dante, for lack of better words, pissed off gamers. “Did they seriously just change his look? WTF!” “Is that a Backstreet Boys reject?” “F this, I’m not buying the game.” Those were the sentiments shared by loyal fans of the franchise. The outpour of criticism escalated further when developer Ninja Theory confirmed it was using the less-powerful Unreal Engine instead of Capcom’s MT Framework to take advantage of environmental animations, while working around lower frame rate speeds. Simply put: DmC earned a terrible rep before anyone could get a hands-on preview with the game.

Then word got out the title was actually really good. Early impressions raved over the game’s upgrades: including gameplay staples such as insane combo attacks and fast-paced action. A sigh of relief for many. But you’d be foolish to think the positives only stop there. So if you’re done holding a grudge against the publisher and developer for its bold moves, allow us to present you with 5 Reasons Why The Devil May Cry Reboot Won’t Suck.

    The game actually turned out to be really shitty, it was the same bullshit level after level, normal world,… Limbo, normal and then limbo, my personal opinion is a get classic game fans loved destroyed to bring people to a great series, the graphics were cutting it close to ps2 graphics, the game its self was a one day completion if you had nothing to do but play, vergils down fall was a hugh let down to those who pre ordered, hell they, re still having problems getting the redeem code to those who pre ordered not to mention the date keeps changing, the game wasn’t challenging at all, the look of the character dante (with his many changes in personality and hair color as you progressed) was really borning, there was no life or character to his clothing. And his DT mode made you stick to a very short time limited and air combat, all in all this game was a hugh let down and a waste of money, your report on reason as to why it may not suck is pointless to the end results, you spoke to soon the game sucked badly, capcom needs to say sorry for fans since they completly dis carded their true fans to bring in more non supporting fans to the series and as for nt lieing about how great of a game this would be needs to ne shhot or stay away from successful game titled and risk infecting them with their shitty game ideas, they failed with almost eh veryother game released, hell capcom do a prince of persia move and recover from this failure and relase another dmc with the real dante, not poser dante
