YES.

#BROKEN Hasney 09-15-2010 02:40 PM

Still really concerned they've shipped this off to the dev of Heavenly Sword.

Fignuts 09-15-2010 02:57 PM

Oh god, he looks like a twilight fan.

Kalyx triaD 09-15-2010 03:17 PM

Fuck you too, Ninja Theory.

Hmmm, I wasn't overly impressed ith DMC 4 if I'm honest, yes it looked amazing. But I still think 3 was the best in the series.

I think DCM - Twilight, has some making up to do.

#BROKEN Hasney 09-15-2010 05:09 PM

I love DMC4 as well though.

But after this abortion, roll on Bayonetta 2 :heart:

#BROKEN Hasney 09-15-2010 05:20 PM

It's not even Devil May Cry 5 BTW, it's DmC. Another fucking reboot.

Kalyx triaD 09-15-2010 10:54 PM

Yeah, Bayonetta 2 needs to get revealed. Kamiya must be tripping right now.

Later, when the new Devil May Cry title was revealed, Inafune pointed out that the project is a combined effort, with work coming from their San Francisco office as well as the team at Ninja Theory. The game's trailer showed an obvious western influence, and it almost seemed like the presentation that followed it was in defensive mode. It seemed that Inafune and others on stage felt the need to hit home that DMC would have plenty of Japanese eyes on it at all times, going as far as to point out that plenty of airplane travel has already taken place for game planning meetings. Both Inafune and supervising director Hideaki Itsuno kept hitting home that this game would be the best of the east and west.
We shall see. I owe Itsuno that much.

Fignuts 09-15-2010 11:29 PM

To be fair, we haven't seen any actual gameplay, which is the important part. Not really right to nail them to the cross just yet.

Kalyx triaD 09-15-2010 11:55 PM

I dub thee correct, Fignuts, and will withhold further comment on the game as a whole until more is revealed. But as far as this new Dante goes, he can suck a cock. You wanna remix Dante for modern fare, fine (I have said ten years is decent 'reboot time' in the movie forum), what you don't do is fuck around with simple shit like white hair, red coat, and a ridiculous personality.

What we have here is literally some super-powered juvenile delinquent. And while I understand about waiting for gameplay, I just don't think NT can make a worthy DMC. They can only hope to develop something better than DMC2. All the others are beyond their scope, this I promise. And as far as this "DmC" going up against Ninja Gaiden 3, Asura's Wrath, Castlevania LoS, (and hopefully) a Bayonetta 2? Bitch please.

MvC3 is DMC5.

Now with that said, I'm always open to reboots and such, usually while everybody else gets pissy. So I imagine somebody's yukking it up already, this I welcome. I'll take my own advice and be open to new interpretations and see how far they'll take it.

Kalyx triaD 09-16-2010 07:30 PM

In a series of tweets where fans ask him his thoughts on the new younger Dante, he [original creator Hideki Kamiya] responds the following:

Quote:

@nss_13_ @PG_kamiya I miss the Dante you made.

I miss him, too… RT
Quote:

@nss_13_ @PG_kamiya It’s sad to see what you started turn this way.

I’ve been sad since Dante left me. RT
Quote:

Solivagant @PG_kamiya #DmC, by Ninja Theory? Do you think they will “evolve” the action game from your Bayonetta standard?

Whatever. RT

Kalyx triaD 09-16-2010 07:48 PM

Completely ass article over at IGN where some dude talks about why he's excited. He states, in the article, that DMC3 was the only one he played. While you can say that's the definitive game of the series, I have a feeling he doesn't know what the hell he's talking about. And the comments pretty much shit on the whole thing.

Might write my own 'blog' on the issue, but who knows.

dronepool 09-16-2010 09:21 PM

Dante looks dumb with that short hair, the game looks alright though.. but nothing "OMG MUST PLAY" really.

Funky Fly 09-17-2010 03:04 AM

Is he fighting werewolves?

Khuntry 09-17-2010 04:30 PM

Why Capcom....

Khuntry 09-17-2010 04:31 PM

And come on another prequel? enough of that already....jeez

Kalyx triaD 09-17-2010 04:39 PM

Not a prequel, a reboot. An ugly one.

Khuntry 09-18-2010 12:22 AM

oh... eww

Emperor Smeat 09-22-2010 01:24 PM

Interview with Capcom explains why the new Dante looks and might play differently due to Ninja Theory making the game.

Capcom demanded a reboot of the character and the franchise as one of the stipulations for Ninja Theory to make the game. They wanted a "hack-n-slash" game done in a Western flavor unlike the Eastern style of the DMC series.

Quote:

When developers Ninja Theory were asked by Capcom to come up with a new look for the star of a reboot of the popular action game, now known only as DmC, publisher Capcom told the studio they wanted extreme redesigns.

But Ninja Theory, perhaps worried about messing too much with so beloved a character in such a storied game, came back to Capcom with three or four new looks for Dante that were "maybe five percent improvements."

"We said, 'No, no, we want you to risk making us angry," lead DmC producer Alex Jones said in a recent interview with Kotaku. "We want it way out there and then we will walk the design back."
Quote:

Jones said when he was first approached by Capcom Japan, he was told that the U.S. offices of Capcom were being given stewardship of the series because the developers wanted a "western-oriented title."

The Capcom folks in the U.S. were fans of Ninja Theory and their work on games like Heavenly Sword and Enslaved. Jones said they felt that Ninja Theory would be a good fit for DmC because they felt the studio knew how to make solid melee games and, more importantly, games that are character driven.

Kalyx triaD 09-22-2010 05:09 PM

Evil on both ends.

#BROKEN Hasney 09-22-2010 05:19 PM

RE5 was awful, Megamans looking awful, this is looking worse. At least there's MvC, DR2 and Okamiden, but Capcoms quality control that used to be stellar is severely slipping.

Kalyx triaD 09-22-2010 05:32 PM

While the tone was different, RE5 was great for me.

Kalyx triaD 05-22-2011 10:11 PM

I was gonna bump the DMC4 thread because the topic fit there, but unless you guys already knew about DMC4 hero Nero:

He's most likely Virgil's son.

So there.

RoXer 06-07-2011 04:53 PM

Look at those graphics!

They're so lifelike!

And realistic!

Kalyx triaD 06-07-2011 04:57 PM

I'm not as spazzed as I was on the reveal. I feel pity more than anything. Good luck to them.

Kalyx triaD 06-07-2011 05:57 PM

A movie is being made based specifically on this version, written by somebody with no knowledge of the genre or franchise. A bomb in the making. Make it stop.

Kalyx triaD 06-09-2011 06:12 AM

Series trivia:

- Kamiya noted that his successor on the franchise, Itsuno (DMC3, DMC4) is mistakenly associated with DMC2. Most of the game was made under another director and Itsuno came late in development to salvage the game (it was much worse).
- Kamiya gave Itsuno advice during DMC3 development.
- Kamiya isn't fond of what Ninja Theory has done so far after seeing the trailer for DmC.

Shane McMahon?

Super V 06-13-2011 07:25 PM

The combat looks Darksidersy. Not a definite avoid as of yet for me.

Kalyx triaD 06-14-2011 09:10 PM

This game is gonna bomb so hard. They need to cancel this and reassess what the next DMC should be.

Emperor Smeat 06-17-2011 07:01 PM

Platinum Games announces that they are willing to salvage or at least work on the reboot attempt of DMC 5 if Capcom decides on changing studios or completely restart the entire project

Currently the studio is asking the fans to tell Capcom if they want a new direction and not themselves since they have no involvement with the current project.

Quote:

Platinum Games designer, Hideki Kamiya, recently said on his twitter account that his studio is ready to take over the development rights for the forthcoming Devil May Cry title from Heavenly Sword creator Ninja Theory.

Kamiya first replied to a user’s concern of Ninja Theory developing the game by saying:

We, your DMC fans, ask you…PLEASE COME BACK AND FIX THIS PROBLEM!

To which the renowned designer responded:

Ask Capcom.

He then replied to a question which asked:

If Capcom came and asked you and platinum to do DMC, would Platinum management go for it?

And Kamiya said:

Sure. We’re ready.

Kalyx triaD 06-17-2011 07:06 PM

I follow his twitter and he's been like this for a while. I don't think it's news worthy that he would work on it since it means very little. He was similarly cool with Bayonetta being added as a guest in MvC3, he'd say things like 'Ask Sega' or 'I wouldn't mind, sounds fun' or something. Imagine that blowing up into a news article. lol

We shouldn't see it as official stances or anything.
