Its a prequel, not a reboot. He actually gets a white mop top on his head (looking like the original dante) and says something like "not in a million years" lol.
that's called "send off" or "a cameo".
let's just do this the PAX way, okay?
"The game is not related to the events that occurred in the numbered games as it is a reboot of the franchise.[1]"
"Announced in late 2010 during the Tokyo Game Show, the game is set in a parallel universe to the mainline Devil May Cry series."
is that even a word? Spell check says no along with my numb mind lol...but I understand what you mean.
well, if the word "threequel" is the thing (like sequel, mid-quel and prequel), why can we have quadrilogy instead of trilogy?))
Some of the most ridiculous games have sold more copies than some of the best due to popular idiocy...
I know what you mean, but that wasn't the case for DMC3 or DMC4, as far as I'm concerned:unsure:
also people being broke and the systems being rape priced during the PS3 era didn't help (I didn't have one myself for like two yrs after release)
I was talking about ALL THE PLATFORMS, not just PS3, dude. DMC series became a multiplatform household name since DMC3.
Thats just being a sheep...and if your "data" actually hold true, that means all these modern garbage games are generally better than all the old classics and retro style games you love--because you can be damn sure all these online multiplayer wastes of graphical design and reused assets have alot more sales than most of the truly iconic title.
okay, okay...
so...why we has sequel to DMC4 instead of DMC:DMC?
Research that one if you doubt it...if you haven't figured out the general masses of humanity are mush minded fucking retards by now, your need to do alot more paperwork :ROFLMAO: 🧟‍♂️
Dude, I know about the 90% rule, but we're talking about millions of sold copies, not billions of ppl:unsure:
Because the old games were still great, I actually love the very first title more than the others even as dated as it is except for DMC.
Very first titles...of Resident Evil series?
Well, I don't really think that the original Resident Evil is better than it's remake from early 2000's
I also love both of 'em, but the original RE2 will be forever in my heart as the best RE title, even though
a) I've played the original RE3 first
b) I think that the remake of RE2 is a great game
Capcom knows, capcom fucks it up. Make up your mind.
Do you mind read it cautious?
I've said "Well, maybe not the CAPCOM itself ported those, but either way players see the CAPCOM logo and think that way, obviously".
Like the DMC:DMC, for example, was made by british company, not the CAPCOM themselves.
they just figured out what they did wrong after 2 and 3 completely fucking bombed
wait, what?.. o0
"Resident Evil 2 received acclaim for its atmosphere, setting, graphics, audio, scenarios, overall gameplay, and its improvements over the original game, but with some criticism towards its controls, voice acting, and certain gameplay elements. It is widely listed among the best video games ever made. It is the best-selling Resident Evil game for a single platform at more than 6 million copies sold across all platforms."
"Accompanied by a major marketing campaign, Resident Evil 3 received positive reviews and sold more than three million copies worldwide. Critics praised the detailed graphics and Nemesis as an intimidating villain, but some criticized its short length."

So...what has bombed??:unsure:
Please, if your going to argue about how good a game is, actually PLAY it...don't go by sales or downloads.
I know what I'm talking about, I've seen what DMC:DMC was. Thanks god it ended on the first game and it's best aspects was transferred into the proper continuation of the actual original series.

Thats simple, it was supposed to be his younger years, can't exactly have 2 generations now can we? Hence Nero, the worst hand they ever played in the series, literally.

Early reaction to the game was widely negative, generally as a result of Dante's visual redesign and the drastic change in the tone of his character; nevertheless, DmC received positive reviews from critics upon release, but less favorable reception among fans. Critics praised the gameplay, art style, and story of the game, as well as the redesigned Dante.
Announced in late 2010 during the Tokyo Game Show, the game is set in a parallel universe to the mainline Devil May Cry series."
I love how I say I'm arguing with a wiki and you send me to the wiki :ROFLMAO: (can we do youtube next?) lmao.

And they say reboot because they intended to start Dante in the past, its not a literal reboot of any game, a new start to the series was their intention. And killing it was their mistake

So lets do this that way then...

Have you ever played the original part 2?

Again with the paper statistics lol. You can't even walk at an angle., you have to turn and push another direction to move back and forth, while being mauled. I quit the series over that game and the third, I know what I'm talking about.
I was talking about ALL THE PLATFORMS, not just PS3, dude. DMC series became a multiplatform household name since DMC3.
These were all Playstation first, as i said the PC port is a nightmare, sadly.

Ya...without Dante as the starting MC, hmmm...makes you wonder 🤔

Ever think they might go back to that past once daddy dies of old age? lol.

EDIT:

Just a heads up, readers can modify wikipedia, although they try to verify information, they can't possible cover all of it, hence the numbering system and citations.

May want to find a better source (like TeachTube)

I've heard that a couple of times, but firstly IT'D BE THE DUMBEST IDEA EVER ('cause we already have his young ears, you know, in DMC3, pretty young, huh?) and secondly reboot's story totally contradicting what was made before it, so it doesn't sticks with your "it was just his young years" mantra. So deal with it, games are made not for the critics, they are made for players/fans, and if in the end DMC5 was hyped (by fans, not by developers themselves) FAR MORE than the reboot at hand, that speaks for itself.
Critics praised the gameplay
I can live with that👆, seriously, but that👇
art style, and story of the game, as well as the redesigned Dante.
is a NO-NO!
That reboot was a part of the CAPCOM's "westernization" line (Bionic Commando, Final Fight: Streetwise etc.) and all those games bombed.
And before you've said anything about "the fact that those bombed doesn't mean those were bad", well, I personally did liked the Bionic Commando one, but others including DMC were a tough call. Some even shittier than the others in line.
I love how I say I'm arguing with a wiki and you send me to the wiki :ROFLMAO: (can we do youtube next?) lmao.
TBH, I've started to citing Wikipedia before I've got to that point of your comment, so...I've just decided to go through nevertheless))
And they say reboot because they intended to start Dante in the past, its not a literal reboot of any game, a new start to the series was their intention.
Dude, let's make it clear, 'cause you're clearly confused by all those terms.
You can't reboot the movie/game etc., only the franchise itself. The thing you're talking about ("reboot of any game") is called remake.
And yes, DMC-DMC was a reboot (a fresh start not so fresh:sick:), not a remake.
If you like the idea about "it was meant to be his younger years, but still in continuity", it called "soft reboot" (cause you're changing only some stuff, not all the stuff). But the problem is it wasn't a soft reboot - ffs, they've changed Dante's origins, made him a half-angel. What's it, Twilight Saga or something??
Have you ever played the original part 2?
I have this feeling that you aren't talking about Resident Evil after all, but I pretend that you are...
Yes, I've completed it more than four times.
Again with the paper statistics lol. You can't even walk at an angle., you have to turn and push another direction to move back and forth, while being mauled. I quit the series over that game and the third, I know what I'm talking about.
Wait...so all of a sudden the infamous "tank controls" become a problem for you, even though the first game in the series had the same controls?
I don't get it...maybe there's some misunderstanding going on, so please, explain.
Also I've completed the original trilogy multiple times, I'm a fun of those low-poly models on the pre-rendered backgrounds. Never I've had any troubles with it's controls 'cause those was the style at the time and in the genre.
These were all Playstation first, as i said the PC port is a nightmare, sadly.
Porting has nothing to do with an art direction, acting, directing, music composing etc.
Ya...without Dante as the starting MC, hmmm...makes you wonder 🤔
Ever think they might go back to that past once daddy dies of old age? lol.
I don't think that digging up that corpse would be a great idea after you've continued the original series and had all the price from the fans.
I have nothing against some prequels (DMC3 was one and it was great, far better than the original two games for PS2), but I'm against the "modern stylized" reboot where all the gothic things become emo-punk or industrial. It's like if Linkin Park all of a sudden become a pop band... OH SH--!
Just a heads up, readers can modify wikipedia, although they try to verify information, they can't possible cover all of it, hence the numbering system and citations.

Till it has the source links near the statement, I'm okay with that.

Listen, I want you to understand me correctly.
No one can tell you "quit liking that game!", but saying it was good all around it's corners would be just a straight lie.
We all have ours guilty pleasures, it's the awareness that something is INDEED one of those is what making you a sane person (not the normal one, but at least sane, you know, like you and me, lol).
