anyone playing this on PC? considering grabbing it there once i buy but my hardware is getting up there in age (i5-4460/gtx970). how forgiving is this one on requirements/specs?

[silverdragontyr]

I'm playing on PC with i7-7700k/GTX950. It has noticeable chugs during some cut scenes and textures could be better but gameplay has been seamless. I actually am looking at getting a new GPU but having difficulty making a decision what is good card to get that would be a good buy for longevity without breaking bank? (x080's lol)

Looks like Sony censored a scene on ps4 lol.

Japan can't handle violence and we can't handle sex, get your shit together world.

Anyway I'm about half way through and I'm very impressed by almost everything EXCEPT fucking auto assist why the fuck is it hard mapped to L3 I fucking hate it. Stop fucking my score over because auto assist accidentally turned on while I'm doing some shit.

Like who thought it was a good idea to have it hard mapped to the controller instead of just being an option you can turn on literally any time in the options menu.

edit: looks like it's tied to your camera reset trigger, so you can move it to L3 (which kinda sucks in a different way but is less triggering for me lol).

Spoiler: show

Devil Sword Dante holy shit, literally a bike, nah son, we have a MJ hat.

What is this game

[silverdragontyr]

Just beat it (first time) and I'd definitely put it up as best DMC game. Basically everything you loved about 3 and 4 plus new stuff.

Spoiler: show

Nero's DT looks awesome and is very fun. My only complaint is you don't get it until the end, but now I'm going through Son of Sparda with it and it's great. Really opens up Nero's gameplay too. Dante is basically a Red orb factory in this with Dr. Faust lol. Go to mission 13 which has tons of enemies and spam. You can easily get 100k+ per run.

[Insanecyclone]

Dr Faust is fucking hilarious when used correctly

[Elcura]

Finished this and started on SoS mode and I have to say this is easily one of my favourite DMC games ever.

Spoiler: show

I dunno what I liked more, Sin DT, Devil Sword Dante, Nero's DT, Dr. Faust, Double Kalina Ann, Cavalier or what like holy shit. This game just doesn't stop throwing new things at you until the very end. I supposed the only downside is that V doesn't really evolve past what he is, but considering I liked his gameplay a lot more than I thought I would I'm happy overall with all the characters. If they add Vergil (because I know he's playable lol) that'll be great. A Bloody Palace which I know is coming as well. I also hope they do more with Lady and Trish seeing as they were playable in DMC4SE so if they added them as well it'd be perfect.

The story was a lot better than I thought it would be. It was like a love letter to DMC 1 and 3 fans and while it's not even slightly original or surprising it's done well and actually acknowledges a lot of things and brings basically everyone into the mix. The characterisation is perfect and even Nico grew on me (and I fucking hated her when I first heard her) so that was a bonus. Her geeking out over Dante explains a lot about her and the dance scene was perfect.

There's this hilarious scene on the main menu after you beat the game with Vergil and Nero sitting in the DMC truck just both trying to out autism the other. And another with Dante and Vergil just chilling lol, it's details like that that I love in this game.

So yeah, if you like DMC (especially 1 and 3) you'll definitely like this. Amazing gameplay (turbo mode tho...), solid missions/bosses, great music and a fun story.

[Nitsuki]

Finished the game, game was absolutely perfect, everything i wanted in a DMC game.

[Obsidian]

Game checks off pretty much every box. Well worth the money. Only thing missing for me is

Spoiler: show

Playable Vergil

But that will probably come with a DLC so, pretty much perfect to me. Well worth the wait.

[Nitsuki]

Spoiler: show

I honestly thought in the final chapter where you are destroying the Qliphoth roots and demons, they would let you play as Vergil, my mind almost exploded in fanboyism, but damn no matter what it was satisfying

So hey. Throwing a debate out here into the wind. Don't really want to hear from randos about it, but BG is fam so lets do it. I am very much against the bullshit microtransactions making their way into singleplayer, and I'm semi annoyed that this game isn't getting any heat for it. From what I can see, it is the literal definition of pay-to-win. You buy abilities faster than normal, and infinite "retrys" if you die. Doesn't get any more blatant, to be honest.

Anyone have any opinions? If this happened in multiplayer, it'd be destroyed. Hell people damn near riot if cosmetics are priced too highly. Why are people letting it go here?

I love DMC, but couldn't support this release. I'll be buying it secondhand sometime down the line to SSStick it to the man (which if anyone wants to sell me their PS4 copy I'm down lol).

[chazzyphizzle]

for single player? i couldnt give less of a fuck if someone pays to do something i did for free lol

[Krandor]

If the game was restricting the amount of red orbs you earn to force people into the micro-transactions sure, but progression feels the same as other games and you can completely ignore them.

[Celeras]

You can completely ignore other peoples cosmetics in multiplayer games too. Whats the difference? Why is "that guy paid a ton to look cooler than me" an outrage, but "that guy paid to revive infinitely and unlock all my abilities" fine because its single player?

I'd obviously ignore them, but don't understand the principle.

[Drai]

Micro transactions for cosmetics or for single player shit is whatever, buying power in multiplayer games and games that have bs things like stamina that you can pay to refill are pure cancer, but yeah if people wanna buy shit in a single player game that doesn’t affect me idc.

[chazzyphizzle]

people that care about paying for cosmetics confuse me too so i dunno
