Small Correction: When DMC Graphic Arts came out, the order was indeed 3142. Didn't realize that they made a slight change once DMC5 came out (I must have missed it) but Capcom decided to suddenly change the order again to 31245. Thanks to those who pointed this out!
Oh, Matt, I would like to say: I'm one of the fan who got into the serie thanks to DMC2.
It's easy to see why the game was regarded as better than the first one: at the time Dante mouvement, matrix dodges, gun play and design where the best ever for a young player fresh out of PS1. "When I played DMC2 I felt like a legend. Then You had Lucia, a seperate game! WOW! AND a Trish with the combat of DMC1? DMC2 is legendary!"
Then time pass...and you realize you can't replay 2 without getting bored out of your mind. Especially after 2006.
It's a game that age badly. I still had fun but I'll never play it again.
With The REboot and two other projects in the works, perhaps the production of the RE movies?
I can remember starting dmc2 being blown away with the open environments and dante's new animations
@Dante2014 They actually have a whole segment in a prequel novel for DMC5 - Before the Nightmare - specifically dedicated to Dante visiting Lucia and explaining how he got Barlog Devil Arm with which we start in DMC5.
They even closed some of plotholes with DMC2:
- Now it kinda explains why Dante was so uncharacteristically moody - he was slowly sliding into depression after DMC1 events and throughout DMC The Animated Series - because "My family is dead. I got my revenge but it feels empty. And there is no challenge anymore. - So now life feels a bit hollow and I personally feel like a subhuman with no place to fit in" - then DMC4 happens and Dante gets his groove back because "EVERYONE I'VE GOT A NEPHEW!".
- They also explained that Agnus from DMC4 worked in Uroboros (evil corporation in DMC2) and stole technology behind artificial demons (like Lucia) and demon gates... To reimplement it with Order's funding on Fortuna Island in DMC4... And suddenly Credo being a feathery demon seems LOGICAL - because duh they used the same tech that created Lucia for it who is Feathers Galore Demoness!
Overall DMC5 just took all media - novels, manga and games - fixed chronological order and put reference to every last of them... I mean c'mon Dante's "Tony Redgrave" alias derived from the name of the city and idea of Vergil going under ridiculously obvious pseudonym was taken right from DMC Novel Vol.1
I also started on DMC2. But then I played DMC1 and DMC3 and never looked back. It's pretty crazy how well DMC3 holds up to this very day.
DMC2 becomes comedy gold if you just keep it in your head that it's 3am and Dante is tired and confused as hell, suddenly his weird lines make sense
im sorry but you stole my headcannon.... he's just got a hell of a hangover from that wicked party the other day,
DMC2 Dante: "Yeah, I'll do it if it's heads..." *flips coin*
Devil May Cry 2 is basically Dante just trying to pay his electric bills
That's every Devil May Cry
Yeah but this time he's lost the will to live and is going through the motions.
@@chrismennell1606 he became older and those bills killed his fun personality:(
@@skateorpie they killed his brother too
Thats the start of dmc5
DMC 3 Dante: Arrogant youngster who was still trying to find himself
DMC 1 Dante: Older, more experienced, relaxed and mature.
DMC 2 Dante: D E P R E S S I O N
DMC1 Dante: "I should have been the one you fill your dark soul with LIIIIIIIIIIGGGGHHHHHTTT!"
DMC 4 & 5 Dante: What the hell am I doing!? *whips out Faust for Friday Night party with the former Yakuza*
DMC 5: mid life crisis :P
Why did you put a "3" After DmC?
Yeah in dmc2 he's dealing with vergils precieved death in dmc1 by dmc4 he's dealt with the loss and is back to his normal dmc3 self
>"He still has me blocked."
Listen, you're not a real twitter denizen unless kamiya has you blocked
I wanted to use my one chance to ask a genuenine, hard thought question, then i replied to a comment on a kamiya post and i forgot to untag him :/
Devil May Cry 2: The One That Kinda Existed
Featuring Dante from Devil May Cry
Have you heard the tragedy of Devil May Cry 2? Its not a tale Itsuno would tell you
@@rayd3657 Unlike DMC 2 just because you can beat the final boss in 5 using just Ebony and Ivory or the Mega Buster, doing such a thing is actually very difficult like a handicap should be. In 2 spamming DT guns or Dante's SMGs isn't exactly the optimal strategy for every situation but it will get the job done with very little effort or thought in 99% of fights.
5 is a joke compared to 3 in terms of difficulty though. Vergil 3 on Normal in DMC 3 is significantly harder than Vergil 4 and 5 on DMD in DMC 5 imo. Much as I love that final boss fight its almost insulting how passive and exploitable they made the guy this time. How can you have a Vergil boss fight that doesn't make me question my ability to play games? It's not right.
@@rayd3657 Demon Hunter is the second easiest difficulty tho. And you probably find DMC3 very hard because for the original american release they made hard the default difficulty.
Devil May Cry 2: The Reason The Timeline Of The Series Is So Weird
But it make sense why he's emo kinda
It's so surreal to remember that this was Hideaki Itsuno's introduction to the franchise... The poor guy got saddled with the responsibility of somehow salvaging a sinking ship as his first assignment with the series.
To be fair this is also the reason why we even got Devil May Cry 3 and it was so awesome - Hideaki Itsuno just REFUSED to go in game history as the "The guy who directed Devil May Cry 2 that ruined franchise" and have gone to infinity and beyond with the next game.
Seriously... I'm grateful to Hideki Kamiya for starting Devil May Cry... But Itsuno deserves all respect and MORE for bringing Devil May Cry from the brink not once BUT TWICE - this is one hell of a dedication to prove everyone wrong and do it right - and what is more impressive is his ability to find and keep good parts from subpar installments - for example Bloody Palace, proto Trickster style from DMC2 or Style Announcer, Vergil's Doppelganger move idea from DmC... Itsuno doesn't simply make a new awesome game - he salvages from wreckage what actually works - and uses it to make new game even better.
@@Ghostel3591 at this point , DMC6 will be luckwarm , just so Itsuno returns in DMC7.
Which will be so glorious , that people will bleed while playing and develop an actual Devil Trigger
@@Ghostel3591 He did a Yoshi-P long, long before FF14 did it in that regard, really.
@@KuroNoTenno I expect DMC 7 to come out in 2040
Well... Like philosophers always said...
You need to go down through hell first before you can end up in heaven!
You need to go down first before you can go up!
Edit: In Avatar Korra
Aang said to Korra *"WHEN WE HIT OUR LOWEST POINT, WE ARE OPEN TO THE GREATEST CHANGE."*
I guess that true to the director.
However we must acknowledge the most important thing. *Chances!* or in a better word it would be: *opportunity*
If no one given him the chance again... Then he will never be able to redeem himself.
And this is true to everyone.
Another example... Robert Downey Jr. Or now he is famously known as Ironman.
As somone who did a Dante VA video, i used all of Dante's audio for his section, all 32 seconds of it, I honestly wish I was joking...
Oh yeah, Unless she comes back, Lucia got screwed by being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Another video I saw and they were talking about “good thing Dante isn’t one of those silent characters...oh wait...” lol. But 32 seconds that’s WILD
I would love if they bought her back. She had no character but I like her design and her devil trigger design.
DMCV had a companion novel that serves as a setup to the main campaign by explaining what everyone was up to just before the game's start. She appears in that as a part of Dante's story.
Yeah, that's a shame about Lucia. But hey, Axl got to become a popular character despite starting out in the bad one.
She had an outside-the-game role in the latest DMC.
"Man who still has me blocked, Hideki Kamiya"
To be fair, that man's block list is larger than the pool of users he hasn't blocked yet. *Yet.*
Yep
@@orangeslash1667 Social Anxiety
Man it's kind of wild that almost 20 years later the first director's identity is still a mystery. That must be some amount of shame to go incognito for that long. Awesome video.
Plot twist: it was Reggie
Whoever it was the sense of shame must have been overwhelming.
@@cabbusses I was thinking the same thing, just look at what he did with SF.
@@cabbusses The timeline would also line up since the development of street fighter 4 didn't start until about 2005. Of course that would assume that he wasn't working on another project at the time. Though the fact the identity is unknown would probably make sense that they'd try to hide the failure of one of their more prominent directors.
It was Hideki Kamiya
Playing this game ... even a devil may cry.
Ah ah he said it he said it
Gold 🥳🤓😎
12:17
We all know we can describe Devil May Cry 2 in one word:
*G U N*
I see that you misspelled INFESTED-CHOPPER
shüt
For his neural special Dante wields a gun
GUN was busted in DMC2
Pretty much! 🤣🤣🤣
Plot twist: The director of Devil May Cry 2 was Mundas
That explains why he has not returned to the series.
It was all a propaganda piece to embaress Dante’s image. DMC 2 still happened in canon but it was way cooler
Capcom really needs to ease up on working with devils.
The one saving grace of DMC2: at least it gave Dante a cool jacket
Itsuno created the greatest action game of all time so he wouldn’t be known as the dude who made DMC2.
And then 14 years later he did it again.
What a legend.
the dude saved the franchise TWICE. what a chad
@@xs3tsunax
I don't think DmC: devil may cry was a bad game just not the right game.
It was when Capcom was going through that unfortunate "let's cater directly to the West" period.
Those were dark days indeed.
It really wasn't very good when it initially came out. the combat was garbage. Then they patched it so the combat was closer to the original series and that's the version most people play that don't understand the hate. The director kept insulting the original series, and then they did the "never in a million years" "joke". Honestly, it had some good ideas and some well implemented ones and the final product isn't bad. but a lot of story is edge lord garbage and so are the characters. Now if they had just made a seperate game who knows where it would stand now?
@@Jose-se9pu I think he just needs to avoid even-numbered games
What do you mean DMC5 was a huge step down from 3 and 4
6:34
I’ll always remember a theory I read during the upcoming release of DMC5, when people speculated that Capcom was going to change the series order from 3142 to 31245. (Before it was officially announced that they did).
Someone said “Maybe between 1 and 2, Dante’s favorite sundae shop closed down.”
After that, it was forever in my “head canon”, that despite all the trials Dante had been through, the only thing to bum him out enough to exhibit a drastic change in attitude was all because he couldn’t get any more ice cream.
Classic Dante.
He got over it, of course.
I'd be devastated too if my favorite Ice-Cream parlor were to close for good. Rest In Peace Cowabunga Ice Cream.
Me, just starting DMC2 after finishing DMC1: “This doesn’t seem so bad.”
Immediately upon getting into combat: “Oh... oh no...”
Man im doing exactly that..., what the actual fuck? Horrible, horrible game, dante is fun to control, but holy shit Mr flicks, tha game looks ass, i just beated the building demon.
Edit: okay I fucking finished it. To anyone getting into the series SKIP THIS GAME. Nothing to see here, no lore no story, no shit. It just made me feel even more the problems of the first one. I really hope the third one is good because man, im not super impresed with the series now.
@@ciligonzalez2897
Trust me, the difference between DMC 2 and 3 is night and day. DMC 3 is considered one of the best action games ever made, and with good reason.
I have no qualms about recommending that everybody skips DMC 2.
@@OrangeyChocolate im playing the third one now, just beated (or got beaten by) vergil for the first time. Fucking. Amazing. Game.
@@ciligonzalez2897
Glad you're having a much better time with this one.
@@ciligonzalez2897 Since you're playing the 3rd game, let me brief you the rest.
DMC4:SE: It has 5 character, Nero(newcomer), Dante, Trish, Lady and Vergil
Nero utilize brute force in his combat, really great for beginner. He also has snatch ability that depending on the size of enemy, allow him to snatch demon to him or bring himself closer to demon.
His sword is a motor for some reason, and you can rev it to up to 3 levels, which increase his attack speed and power significantly and it's really awesome seeing him go haywire. There's a skill you can buy where if you press it at a right time, it will automatically fill up all 1 level and if you time it even right, it can fill all 3 level.
So, if you're a posses godlike QTE ability, you can infinitely charged your attack.
You like Dante in DMC3? You like all his style but hate that you can choose one at a time?
You like all the weapon but disappointed that you can't carry more than 2?
How about we give you the ability to switch style on the fly. Oh, and you can carry 3 melee and 3 range weapon now.
Trish is like Dante, except she can't switch weapon and style.
Lady focus more on range and kinda make the game quite easy.
Vergil carry it's tradition as being OP as ever.
DmC: Didn't play it yet, personally, I think it's fine, just it doesn't deserve the "DMC" name.
DMC5: 4 character, Nero, Dante, V(newcomer) and Vergil(DLC and Special Edition)
The best version of Nero. Now his arm can do more than just snatch.
The best version of Dante, now you can carry much more weapon and unleash a crazy amount of possibilities of combo you can imagine.
V is surprisingly quite unique. You are a summoner type and let all your summon do all the work for you. Quite fun and easy for beginner.
Vergil is still as OP as ever.
Capcom is like a more sympathetic Konami
Yeah, I get less of a feeling of actual insipid malice from Capcom than from Konami. I at least get the impression that Capcom knows there are people other than them that matter in the world
@@DinoDave150 T o be fair id totes play a RE4 Merchant themed slot machine.
@@DinoDave150 " you've won NOT ENOUGH CASH, Stranger"
@@AJegoist They have DMC themed slots as well that utilize exclusive cutscenes not seen in any of the games.
@@The1of1000 DMC X The Last Judgement had a pretty banger soundtrack ngl
I tweeted at Kamiya back in 2020 when I had covid, and he wished me and my loved ones a speedy recovery. Great guy
i find that hard to believe
You're lucky! I tweeted at him, and I got blocked.
I didn't even tweet at him, just followed, got indirectly called insect and blocked. honestly, based.
DMC2 Dante may get a lot of shit, but his line "A false coin for a false god." is still one of the best "fuck you" statements in the entire series.
Along with, "King? Yeah, here's your crown."
Don’t forgot “your swan song will”
He has the best outfit and rebellion design in the entire franchise as well.
@@JMK248 fax bro
@@JMK248 L dmc 1's outfit better
Funny how SMT3: Nocturne was able to capture the essence of Dante's character than this game ever did.
real gamers skip DMC2 and play nocturne instead
cant believe nocturne HD port is selling DMC2 for 10 dollars as DLC crazy
Was hoping to see a comment about Nocturne. Dante was fucking cool in that game unlike DMC2 lol
Not to mention a headcanon where he's actually contracted by Lucifer is able to make sense to the point you can put Dante's journey in Nocturne as canon in the mainline DMC series where it's believed as a sequel to DMC2, seeing his attribute and additude
Well... it's just a headcanon though but still impressive nonetheless
The game where Dante's true enemy is crippling depression
Honestly I kinda want Lucia to come back in another game. Her design is pretty good and I think she deserves a another shot.
I agree!
Quite a lot of things in this game had great concepts but failed in execution: Dante’s Majin Devil Trigger, Lucia, Dante’s outfit, and the environment demons and that’s it...
Honestly if they take these ideas and put them in a game with the combat system of DMC 5 and tune up the voice acting and plot and you got a pretty awesome game.
" Another *_shot_* " poor choice of words
@@amirking5452 This is Capcom we’re talking about
@@8Kazuja8 True you do have a point...well ignore the Majin Devil Trigger thing but yeah your right on how Lucia was just wasted since she felt like she would be an awesome partner with Dante.
Also the clothes yeah are not that important but sometimes the outfit looks cool to bring attention to people.
Also the demon bosses in DMC2 are very interesting but badly implanted due to the shitty gameplay where if they updated it with DMC5 style of combat with DMC3 style of difficulty then you would get a tough and fun game.
Also the voice acting and the plot REALLY needs to be worked on since the plot is so bare bones it doesn't even feel like a DMC game...I mean DMC1, DMC3. DMC4 and DMC5 had massive plots threaded together and gave some semblance of an ongoing saga but DMC2 feels so disjointed when you put it with the other games...it almost feels like the game was just a day of a random moment.
Good grief, that Infected Chopper “fight.”
BEST FIGHT IN THE GAME MAN. 10/10
Honestly, Lucia's water levels were worse.
@@ZeroOhNine There's a water level?!?!?
@@firstnamesurname2482 Yup. I think there were two and one even had a boss fight underwater which was horrible to control. I honestly would've preferred to fight the infested chopper again.

Pretty much the time has come and so have I
I still remember playing this game on the PS2's DMC collection. I especially hated the bosses in this game. They were either too far away so you had no choice but to use your guns, or the bosses would knock you halfway across the arena so you had no choice but to use your guns.
Does anyone else think that Arius looked like a bootleg Heihachi?

@@khalifrhodes9503 still not the best. 3 (or one cronologically) is the one
@@valentds yeah dmc 1 pales in comparison to even 4. but i was just saying that looking at it from a different perspective lore dmc 2 isn't that bad.
Good to see the Vinesauce memes are already plentiful in the comment section.
I was so disappointed when I didn't see a Wha Happun video on this game when "DEE EM CEE 2" became a meme.
We know that Vinny watches these videos sometimes so it's probably going to become a meme again after today.

GOOD
You mean Vsauce?
@@adam8-285 No, Vinesauce is a channel
Alright, now let's do DMC4 because that game would be fascinating. In the veins of Demon's Souls, a good game with a troubled development.
But DMC4 wasn't a bad game, it was rushed yes but it was 4000 miles better then DMC2
@Reggielacey 223 You mean the game where half of the levels is you going back through the same levels as a different character and was rushed out the door doesn't sound like a What Happened worthy topic?
@Reggielacey 223 It totally does tf.
@@CappuccinoGuil not really, the game didn’t flop and the answer is basically in the game, they wrent very confident in nero so they shoved in Dante for some gameplay, theres what happened
Wha Happuned doesn't cover only bad games just ones that had really bad development problems. This just usually leads to bad games. DMC4 had problems but honestly most come down to needed more time and didn't get it so instead of new levels Nero's were repurposed for Dante.
"Does Devil May Cry 2 even have music?"
*Shoot the Works stops*
For real. One of the few saving graces of the game are the sick jams. Evil Tower, Uncanny Noise and Ragnarok are total bangers.
Heads or tails from the ending credits was pretty boss imo. But of course that would mean playing long enough to reach the end credits
the music is actually on par with the rest of the series imo
I honestly couldn't take anyone saying "Dmc 2 is the best shooter of 2003" when Ratchet and Clank : Going Cammando came out the same year.
Yeah but ratchet and clank doesn't have the best song, it's called "ebony and ivory" and it gose like
BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Interesting, the first fps & third-person shooter I beat both released that year; XIII & Max Payne 2.

My best friend in 1st grade let me borrow DMC2 on the last day of school and I was to give it back to him the first day of 2nd grade but he moved away and I never saw him again. I never forgave him for leaving me with such a disappointing game.
Give back his game ya greasy bastard
😂😂😂😂😂 ok I laughed
To this day I'm still not entirely sure how to pronounce "Agonofinis."
Ah - goh - noh - phin - is
I would guess?
Maybe something along the lines of "I gain a fine ass"
It's supposed to be two words, but the in-game text is smushed really bad. "Agonof Inis". Basically means "Agony Incarnate".
**reads tittle**
Me: “It was bound to happen”
"Dante's sudden silence almost seemed to imply that something terrible had happened between the events of "1" and "2"."
Hey, remember how in DMC2 Dante starts out with the lightning elemental power up and the in-game description says it's from the heart of a lightning demon? Hey, remember how Trish is a demon with lightning powers and, other than a non-canon for funsies mode, is not ever even so much as mentioned in DMC2?
Thank God the timeline got retconned so that 4 comes after 2 lmao. Granted so does 5 so Trish is-
Yeah I'm gonna say Trish probably didn't die before DMC 2.
Well I guess that explains it
Well at least it's still canon
That intro with Little V was awesome bro!
So if i get it right, DMC2's disappointing development is what led Itsuno to reach out and make DMC 3, then they needed a lead artist for the Devil Triggers so they asked for Atlus designer Kazuma Kameko to be on board. Which due to a deal led to Dante's inclusion in SMT III Nocturne and the cool design of the SDTs. (Inspired by DMC 3 Devil Trigger's)
*I don't regret DMC2 ever again.*

Argosax theme is kickass, i won't lie
Those organs go wild, man. For a supposed equal to Mundus, Argosax got shafted hard both in game and in the lore.
I appreciated the LittleV cameo. Thank you, Matt, for all the great content so far
That clip of the girls reacting to Dante gets me every single time. Hilarious.
6:25 I actually read it as “joke-assing” until you paused it.
I still want to see Lucia come back some day. I want her to be friends with the other ladies. She deserves it.
Especially cuz Trish and lady are best friends and fit soo well into the series. Lucia deserves to at least get to be a full character once.
BOOTI PLS COVER DEE EM CEE 2
Wait a minute.
i had hoped they'd reuse lucia at some point. she deserves a second chance.
Man, I remember when this came out when I was in 8th grade. I really liked it then. Then a year later played Dmc1 and found that to be the better one. Then 3 came out and changed everything.
I always liked Lucia's story. I don't think she's prickly because you see towards the end how she's trying to deal with everything, plus the ending. Her story has a good twist and satisfying end. Hope to see her again in Dmc6.
I’ve watched almost every one of your “What Happened” vids. They’re one of my favorite series on TH-cam. Keep up the great work!

I still remember the CrowbCat video on this game, legendary.
It's not surprising that the original director was never disclosed
the guy probably still feels ashamed
I love this channel and I love this show and I absolutely ADORE THE COMMITMENT TO RELEASE A VIDEO SO FREQUENTLY WITHOUT DIMINISHING IT'S QUALITY.
I don't know how you achieve this Matt but you're the greatest.
You have no idea how badly I would love for Kamiya to be given a chance to remake both DMC & DMC2. The story in that games would be so fucking outta control, you'd think the original DMC2 was some kind of fucking fever dream. The best part of DMC2 was Dante's design and Lucia.
@Baron o Markers Adjustments can be made. The games doesn't need to just a visual upgrade. They can re-imagine parts of the island to have it fit within changes to gameplay, too. DMC2 needs a complete overhaul in every aspect.
@Baron o Markers I would leave it to just one infested piece of military hardware, but would add an encounter with a demon possessing one of high military rank prior to that boss fight to have it make sense than just show up for the memes.
@Baron o Markers DMC2 has a megaton of potential to be great. For something like a tank fight to be exciting, I think they'd need to make that fight be similar to the Shagohod fight when Volgin was controlling it through wires using his suit, but they'd need to make it where a demon would telepathically control a tank crew.
@Baron o Markers The way the city of Redgrave in DMC5 is designed should be the way that small country should be in 2. Maybe a mech designed by a company that Arius heads could be a solution to that.
@Baron o Markers And certainly don't change the style of the voice acting for Arius. Did somebody order a LARGE HAM?
I also need to know what these fans were "feeling" with DMC2. I'm truly interested.

DEE EM CEE TOO IS THR BWEST
BOOTI PLZ IS BEST DONTE IN GAEM
For the second video in a row, I'm amazed someone else remembers Spyborgs existed. I saw Nintendo Power talk about it a few times in the leadup to its release, and once it hit, I have never heard anyone say anything about it, nor have I ever seen it on shelves.
I had always wondered why I had never heard anyone talk about DMC2. I've never played the games, making me out of loop. But this game in particular hardly gets a glance it feels like. More importantly, I didn't realize this is the first time they tried to change Dante's personality (and have it received poorly). I'd heard about the DMC remake game that everyone...I think pretty much hated for how they portrayed Dante in that. So I guess the lesson here is, "Don't try to change Dante from being a wisecrack. That's literally what's appealing about him." Makes sense to me.
Wow your editing and graphics have gotten so good
This game was such a slog to get through. Had to play it in increments to avoid falling asleep.
I lost progress regularly falling asleep an now iam sat staring at dmc collection with only 2 un done
You can still beat it even if you are falling asleep.
I feel that. Two or three missions a day, every few days. Took me nearly a month to finish both play throughs.
I beat both campaigns in normal mode and complete Dante's campaign in hard mode and i am about to finish Lucia's campaign. So DMD/LMD time.
"What a pittance" so glad that's getting over
My head canon is that Dante from DMC 2 is his mute grandson that is trapped in a branching timeline dimension.
Isn't that already explained?
Binny, why you no play DEE EM CEE TwOo?????
I played through this game for the first time on the HD Collection on the 360. The only things I really took away were the tanks, chopper, and Simmons from RE6.
At least you get dmc 3
Man, going into this game for the first time was a trip. I was completely unaware of this games reputation until I started. Easily one of the worst games I’ve ever played. Probably won’t be going back to it unless I’m REALLY desperate for a Platinum like with Ride To Hell.
You platinumed ride to hell?! You mad man . I am not even sure whether thats a badge of honor or a mark of shame
You haven't played many bad games tho
I've been waiting for this one. Nice work.
To be fair, would anyone want to put *"Devil May Cry 2 Director"* in their job resume?
As far as everyone is concerned SMT Nocturne is the real Devil May Cry 2.
Great video as always Matt!!! It still is amazing how Itsuno made a functional game within 6 months, and tbh I'm somewhat grateful to DMC2 being the way it is cause without it we wouldn't have had DMC3 one of the greatest games ever made, thank you so much Itsuno-san! And I'm so happy the series is going strong again since DMC5 reviving the franchise again!
YES! I've been waiting for this day!
I have been waiting for this one!
Something I’ve always wanted to see from the dmc series from Capcom is to blend the first games level design with the 3rd games combat, or 4th or 5th cause they just have more refinement, but regardless I would love to see more of the backtracking puzzle solving and familiarizing yourself with the levels and mysteries. I would actually love to see a dmc game that doubles down on that stuff... and also if you are gonna have multiple playable characters it would be nice if each character had their own 20 mission campaigns. But I’d also like missions structure to change and just be checkpoints that make style points and stuff and big events. I guess dmc 1 and 3 do this but idk hopefully this thought made some since though
Dude...this game tarnished and almost sunk the franchise
All i remember is huge open spaces and baddies being too damn far apart to get a combo going.
Music was...not too bad i suppose
That intro was great, man :)
Diesel brand clothing in DMC: What a pittance!
Almost killing influential franchises now seems to be Capcom's MO.
I am disappoint.
Well, there is the "almost". Compared to EA.....
Emphasis on almost.
"In DMC2 i was feeling it"
The only thing i've ever felt while playing DMC2 was my soul slowly leaving my body
Ha! Great intro. Nice to see LittleVMills there.
Been waiting for this one
Oh my god I was just thinking about this
I believe the director for DMC2 is a ghostwriter. He remains to be secretive with his identity so no one would attack him for his irony. Sorta like some Last Airbender movie shit with Shaymalan put to the side without making his vision. Also, I do appreciate it that DMC3 saved the franchise! It even got me into DMC, as well as considering Dante to be one of the funniest video game protagonists since DMC3, that includes DMC4 and DMC5!
You underestimate the quality of Shoot the Works. The DMC HR/HM Arrange versions of it is surprisingly good.
I forgot about this game
Even capcom did lol
“What a pittance” indeed Diesel..l”what a pittance” indeed..
absolutely mental production approach. baffling.
Didn't expect that LittleV cameo
This party’s getting crazy
