DMC (Devil May Cry Reboot)

[Kiarax]

Ssadistic...? Really?
Hands-on preview:

Sounds promising (although still a step back for most of us), I do like this too:

As your combo's rank increases from D to A to SSS the music intensifies - the guitar kicks in, then the drums, then the vocals. Combo-chasing isn't just about big scores; it's about screaming music giving you feedback every time you get that little bit better. Only the the best players care about that letter in the corner of the screen, but by tying that letter to the music Ninja Theory has made it worth chasing that SSS for even the least capable players. Fight well and you'll look /and sound/ like a badass.

It does seem like a step back, like I'm playing a more polished DMC1/2, lol. Hard to tell without actually playing it how it will handle, as I remember the previews/trailers from DMC3 and 4 looked nothing like the combo videos that came after.

Sound effects are really good... game looks totally cool and though I'll miss the old Dante, I think this one will grow on me

[Fairy-Killer]

The combat actually looks pretty solid. Hmm...

[KuroTsuki]

Definitely looking better. I'm just hoping you get a lot more moves than what was shown. It got a little repetitive after awhile.

I still can't get over his stupid face. Everything else seems okay.

[blindSharingan]

I was kinda feeling better about the game when I saw the newer trailer where he appears to have some of his old attitude but through that whole game play portion of the video he seems pretty flat and like it isn't there again.

[Kobb]

I admit I love how the world keeps shifting and changing around Dante. I'll probably end up buying it after seeing what kind reviews it gets.

Only minor thing that gets to me is the rating system reminds me of Tony Hawk games the way it's lettered.

[Arelian]

It still looks very slow, not very stylish, and the soundtrack sounds really boring. Loud, screaming vocals were kinda important to the overall feel of Devil May Cry, I always felt.

[Elcura]

Echoing pretty much what is said. The most interesting thing is the shifting world, it looks cool and would probably be a lot better in a different type of game. The combat looks solid technically (though hard to say without playing), but like it was said before, seems like a step back.

This game probably won't be as horrible as page 1 me would believe, but it'll still be terribly average, like DMC2 and all of NTs other IPs.

Style ranking controls the music now. If you have full SSS it has vocals and shit supposedly.

[Kerberoz]

Meh, not particularly disappointed in the soundtrack because I know full well that DMC3's will never be topped. Shit still automatically plays in my head when I'm doing something boring.

[Arelian]

THE TIME HAS COME AND SO HAVE I.

Anyways, it was just disappointing to hear the "dainty" clanks and clinks as Dante hit people with Rebellion instead of something crazy.

[Krandor]

Looks downright boring, which is not something I thought I would ever say about a DMC game.

[Oravis]

2 minutes into that video and I'm already annoyed. The style ranking reset really fast from A to D after not doing anything for a second... just like DMC 2. Unless it was just from taking that one little hit which is still stupid.

[Kuya]

I think that the worst part about that video was how pointy his elbows were.

Time actually doesn't make it go down in this one unlike the other games. It's just getting hit that does it.

Right now I am mostly just praying that harder difficulties increase the speed or at the very least, remove all the awful telegraphing of enemy attacks. They stand there doing some obvious animation for a full second or so from what we've seen so far. DMC always had small visual or audio cues for when enemies would attack, but they were never painfully obvious like this nor did they last as long (in most cases). Seems like the game is gonna be a total breeze if all the enemies in the game are like this.

A single hit has always caused style ranking to reset. At least I know that is the case in dmc1.
