Wow, that actually looked pretty neat. I'm getting a 'They Live' vibe from the alternate demon world, and the way it all warped was pretty cool.
So going into some sort of "Rage mode" makes him look like regular Dante?
I wonder if that was the idea all along, or a reaction to the outrage.
Regardless, game looks great, but I've been burned out on DMC ever since I played Bayonetta. This new one has to do alot to sway me over.

And by that I meant that I loved Bayonetta in a way that the previous DMCs looks like a tame version of the genre.

That was the plan all along. The developer has said that from the beginning, but of course blind fanboys don't care, or listen.
But this game does look great. I really can't wait for it.

It's almost as hilarious as the redesign of Nathan "Yo I seen some gritty shit and now I got dreadlocks" Spencer from Bionic Commando.
At this point, just give me the game already. I stopped caring. Looks so good.

Dante fanboy rage aside, I'm just not digging the vibe from the new character; with Dante's messed-up look and his patched up jacket (a UK flag? Really? Are we 60's punks now?), he just seems like the designers are trying too hard.
And to what Ren said I agree: Bayonetta perfected the DMC formula. I loved classic DMC, DMC3, and DMC4, but it needs new blood and I don't personally believe Ninja Theory is very qualified.

Saying this is a parallel universe actually makes me more angry. Just admit you want to change Dante's direction, it's fine.
Now, what I get from this trailer is that the game might be a little too serious. That and the music is better, haha.

That bit on "demons everywhere". Was that the kid from Breaking Bad? I like what I saw. The Colors and Shapes in the demon world seem to be a nice touch.
If I take my Devil May Cry fan hat off for a minute then this trailer doesn't look too bad. It just doesn't look anything at all like the Devil May Cry I'm a fan of. They should have abandoned the name altogether and called it something else.
Is it just my impression, or they altered emoDante's face traits from how it was in the previous trailers, so that now he looks "cuter" and more like the original one?
Voice is fucking horrible he sounds retarded, i still have no hope for this game and it has nothing to do with how dante looks, its to do with ninja theorys involvement, And ill admit enslaved was a good story but the gameplay was sub par, and dont even get me started on heavenly sword.
And whats with the emo'e music.

For the thousandth time - its not about the design. It's whether or not the Unreal engine can handle true 60fps fast paced combat that is unique to the series - other than controlled videos by the dev, this is yet to be seen.
If the fight mechanics are as deep as previous DMC games, then it will be welcome.
But for the record, a parallel universe is a pretty cheap cop-out.

Meh, still not overly interested. Ninja Theory still needs to prove to me they can release a solid game and all of Capcom's mind-boggling stupid reasons for this reboot have pushed this game down to rental status for me.
"Looks good" and "plays good" are two different things. Though I've learned long ago you don't look to Jim Sterling for sage and informed opinions when it comes to video games. Mix that with the fact Ninja Theory is nowhere near the caliber of developer of say Platinum Games, of which their game Bayonetta set the standard for third person action games. I'll believe it when I get my hands on a controller and play it.
@janodx
Love that song.
Also, this game looks alright. I'm not into arcadey action games so much, but if they release a demo I'd b happy to give it a bash. I liked the "you don't fuck with a god" line.

I couldn't care less about the aesthetics; the main character could be a fluffy bunny in a even more punk rock setting, but who cares, it's supposed to be am *action* game! And that's the problem...
It's 30fps, made by a dev that can't hold a steady framerate for crap, they implemented a completely floaty combat style that strips all semblance of frame-specific skill, and their excuse is the environment is the reason they had to slow the combat down.. Obviously they haven't seen Bayonetta's levels where you fight enemies on rocks in a hurricane, inside a water tornado, on a missile, and ask sorts of things being thrown around in real time.
Capcom's answer to the champion of technical action is to take their technical action serious and neuter it into a God of War, aesthetically focused, simplistic jack and slash. I imagine that would be akin to turning Forza out GT racing sims into simplistic arcade racers... Why do that to a series heralded for its precision?

Take away the connections to DMC and Dante. Does this game really look like anything special or just another been-there-done-that action game?
Face it Jim, the only reason this game even remotely excites you is because you find the tears of veteran DMC fans so delicious. If all the long-time DMC fans were raving about how awesome this game is, you'd be saying things like "Here's a new game that really is just an old game with different spray paint". This Contrarian card you keep playing is starting to get old and was never really that entertaining in the first place. Go back to the Sarcastic card.

The music was a little on the corny side, but this is some phenomenal voice acting for a Capcom game!
It looks really interesting.

I love the previous DMCs, even half of DMC 4 (the Nero half). This actually looks awesome, NT has the chops to make this game and I love the visuals and feel.
It looks even more adolescent than the previous games... I was already putting up with enough inane tonal choices in the previous games just for the quality gameplay... but I don't know if I can handle music and dialogue of that level of stupidity for an entire game this time around.
Not cuhraaaazy enough.
Seriously tho, it looks okay, but its certainly nothing spectacular either. We have better beat-em-ups than this.

They changed this, they changed that, boo hoo. The game looks tight as fuck with moving platforms, and a fresh combo system. Save your hating for after the game comes out and we know it's shit.
Looking forward to trying this out. Like how the world breaks apart and has subliminal messages. Very They Live meets Dark City.
Yes devil may cry fans, this game is not devil may cry 6. So i recommend you forget any complaints that amount to what you wanted from devil may cry 6. If capcom wanted devil may cry 6, they would have hired platinum. They didn't, so they didn't.
I think they are just trying to expand on the themes of demons into our personal "demons" so to speak. Pretty awesome trailer, cool voice, slow walk was a bit predictable.

yeah totally looks like "they live". oh no, wait, it doesn't at all, they just stole the subliminal message signs and rammed them into the game. it's okay though, the kind of people that are going to just love the cool new Dante will eat that shit up because they are too young to have seen "they live".
i'm going to continue to be outspoken about my dislike of the new Dante. still not feeling the design and now i don't like the voice either. SO SUE ME. the proof of the pudding is in the eating, but i'm already seeing Dante's stupid design and listening to his whiny voice. i've tasted some of this pudding and it tasted like SHIT.

+Combat looks alright.
+Platforming has been missed since the original DMC.
+/-The people showing up in the environment looks a lot like the way Bayonetta handled it in Purgatorio.

It's clear that you're not a fan, or even a spectator, because we would need a DMC5 before DMC6.
And no - they didn't hire Platinum for the same reason they hired the Canadian Studio to help with Dead Rising 2 - they want to increase their "western appeal". The long term effects of said strategy are yet to be seen.
