    I love DMC4, but I think the 0.1% of fans that care about intertia and reversals have critically oversold the game. DMC4 is fun mess, but a mess all the same, DMC5 may lack some cool tech, but I'd rather have a game that's actually finished. DMC4 is still legendary for what it gets right, but some of the level design and enemies are straight garbo.

    • @Devil-Joe
      @Devil-Joe  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      I agree 100% DMC4 combat wise is phenomenal but everything around it holds it back making it a difficult game to go back to making the learning process of these mechanics a bit less appealing

    • @DanielSantosAnalysis
      @DanielSantosAnalysis 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      @@Devil-Joe I sometimes think of what a feature complete DMC4 would be like, but I also question if the weird tech would've been removed had the game gone through another QA pass, being seen as weird bugs rather than fun tech. I think part of the reason DMC4 turned out the way it did, was specifically because it was this rushed, unfinished mess. Still though, a DMC4 with actual Dante levels and more enemy variety..... that's the stuff dreams are made of.

    • @Devil-Joe
      @Devil-Joe  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      @DanielSantosAnalysis well in that reality Inertia and Reversals wouldn't have been a thing but DMC4 would have been a much more memorable game than the one we got we could have even got some more bosses to fight as Dante

      Bro is spitting facts, when talking about those mechanics being oversold.
      However, after learning about the theory of "DT Explosion/Inertia/Quadruple S representing Dante's control of his demonic energy", I'd rather to see Inertia be part of Trish's Devil Trigger mechanics.
      You could title it "Lightning Rod", "Thunderbolt", or my favorite "Lichtenberg".
      EDIT: Wrongly wrote "Inertia" among the DT Evolutions, bugged me too much, to leave it there.

    • @Devil-Joe
      @Devil-Joe  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @solracstormhunter3023 yeah I've seen the theory of how different DT mechanics can be ways in the lore of Dante learning his way around the Devil Trigger I found that to pretty damn cool I think inertia should be put back in as an option you can turn on and off in a slider like the ones in the new Spider-Man games

    Funny that you mention Symphony of the Night, because the 2nd half of the game reminds me of the Upside Down Castle; just the same game again, but in reverse. So it’s tedious to do with Dante - even more with Vergil and Trish. So while I really do like this game, backtracking back to reclaim the Yamato fills me with dread more than motivation.

    • @Devil-Joe

    What i love about about DMC4 is it sound design, they're giving you so much impact (no pun intended), like you can really feel it when you use a heavy attack like Stinger and the climax move of Dance Macabre and ofc real impact... also when i use summon swords they sounds intense yet tender, is such an eargasm

    Another disappointment, is how underused Yamato is in gameplay.
    Nero only gets besides his Devil Trigger, only two extra moves with it, Dante only gets a basic combo, the short air combo and two dollar store versions of judgement cut.
    You would've thought, with it being so hyped in the story, it's inclusion to the gameplay would've been deeper than that.

      @@Devil-Joe Something that I've just remembered, is how their "proficiency" with Yamato is supposed to be less refined, compared to Vergil, trained with it his entire life. What would explain, why they lack so many moves of their own, but in the "Deadly Fortune" novel, Dante pulls a near perfect Judgement Cut imitation on the Hell Gate, despite it being "improvised". 😅🤨
      Isn't it funny how Vergil is portrayed as this guy, who trained his entire life with the sword and refused any other weapon, besides Beowulf and yet Dante is his total equal in swordfighting, when Dante's whole stick is him choosing "flexibility" over "perfect proficiency"? ☕🤔
      You would think, they would contrast each other's weaknesses by making Vergil always overwhelm Dante with his sword skills and Dante always needs to even the field, through the use of his other weapons. 🍷🧐

      Why wouldn't Dante age? He's not a demon he's a man with a demon half that gives him problems. That's the core concept of the franchise. He's still human in the end, he's mortal and will experience the life cycle of other men
