My guess is that switching characters mid-campaign was such a foreign concept back then that they may have thought it was a bad idea and players wouldn't like it. Or maybe they didn't even think to do it altogether. But I do agree that two runs of this game for, basically, the same story was completely unnecessary.
For how little story there is, it was so incoherent in the game itself; especially because it was split between the 2 characters. This was helpful. I almost wish Capcom brought Lucia back to give her something more interesting to do.
Where the fuck was trish this whole time. I just finished the first one, everyone says skip the second one so I came here. Did they just pretend trish never happened? She was hunting demons with him at the end of the first game
I wonder the same thing. It might be explained in one of the other games (the DMC timeline isn't exactly straightforward). But I know as much as you do, tbh, because I haven't played the other games either.
The anime explains a bit on this. After a few months of the events of DMC 1 they split up and started working solo since that was more effective. The anime takes place between 1 and 2
What i really liked about the game was the gun mechanics like melee + gun combos and the guns pushbacks on enemies. It really was kind of different combat wise. Didnt like the story much and the AIs were kind of easy to deal with, but its still its own thing.
have you seen that one video where no enemies attack the player even when he's standing ? it's called "real gamers don't skip DMC2" or something like that
I remember my dad got DMC1 and it was so fucking badass, I bought DMC2 expecting that it was going to be the next big thing but I was dissapointed with the story and atmosphere, good game but it felt short compared to the other ones
The game looked phenomenal for its time considering 4 months of development this couldve been one of the best if not the best dmc games if it had more time
I forced myself to play this game since I bought the hd collection and I couldn’t find the willpower to play through her side of the game, thanks for this. Also when I heard him say devils never cry I almost uninstall the whole game lmao
Honestly, I dont really like how the game feels as a DMC game, but I do like the way the game itself looks. Only watching this because I dont like the game play of dmc 2 and cant be bothered to beat it lol
Sergei Markidonov same here friend. I was in the on fire and then said screw it on to 3. That fight was making my eyes hurt. Then I just up and died for no reason
Bruh I knew this game was bs, but the fact that the oil rig map had no meaning at all despite being miserable made me lose it. Also, am I the only one who feels like there was a story book planned to be put in the game box at original release? The plot feels like I'm playing an EA game with no DLCs.
It’s a bit ironic. I only played Dante’s story and it was so confusing and bad that I didn’t even try Lucias story. Yet most of the plot gets explained I her story. Never judge a book by its cover I suppose
Hello my friend beautiful video, I just want to point out this humble detail in the game I don't know if you're familiar with Norse mythology in this game Dante battles against Odin's wolves in a tunnel,. That's so cool... Watch out God of war... ☀️🐺🌙🐺
played 3 dante mission and holy shit this game is so bad. at firs i was like "it can't be THAT bad" but i guess they were right, your curiosity is not worth your sanity. so i just decided to watch the story summery so i'm not that left out.
Who else is playing through the HD collection and came here so they could skip this game?
Aw, come on! The game's not THAT bad. The Lucia playthrough was enjoyable (even if I was just retreading old ground for the most part).
@@lorelogs3901 it's giving me a headache. DMC3 here I come
Well i came here since there was some plot holes for story :v
@@Shakenmike117 Is it because of the timeline? Because the story's timeline and the release order aren't the same.
@@lorelogs3901 no it's the shitty gameplay lol
Thanks. I gave up halfway through my Lucia playthrough cause I was so bored lol. Your video helped sum up really nice and quickly
Your welcome. Always glad to help!
There was absolutely no reason to split the game into 2 stories. I honestly couldn't be bothered to run through the whole game again so here I am.

If the coin landed on tails: "Welp, gotta find someone else to do it. It also looks like I used the wrong coin."
Now I'm free to play dmc 3
I mean dmc 3 is a prologue so you could’ve started either way
>enters room with disguise
>true identity is immediately known upon entering room
>disguise disappears after being found out
hilarious
The cut scenes in this game were next level for it's time.
I imagine they were. I only got around to playing this when it was time to make the video, but they still look decent, considering their age.
6:44 "the despair embodied."
That boss fight always reminds me of Dark Souls boss fights. The name. The boss looks. the health bar looks. it all fits.
This is the boss that places Dante at multiversal since its a concept and not just some demon
Capcom likes their Uroboros don't they xD
5:56 I was thinking same thing like how tf he got his bike there as well 😂

DMC 2 gets all the hate but I loved this double game. A lot of fun
Devils never cry, only devil i can think of that does is the main character from devilman crybaby
The game looked phenomenal for its time considering 4 months of development this couldve been one of the best if not the best dmc games if it had more time

Dmc 3 here I come
Why does Lucia look like Rihana almost

+Symmetrical PhantomFox As always, thank YOU!
@@lorelogs3901 quick question when is your birthday?
@@jpandrews Sorry to reply to a question with another question, but did you change your email address again? It keeps bouncing back anything I send.
@@lorelogs3901 no it always been the same.
Maybe do jpandrews2005@gmail.com again my other one got deleted for no reason
this entire game happened because of a coin flip?
Gave up on mission 5 lol, sooo boring. Thanks for this video!
What about 3 muh man
You can watch my update video for more detailed information, but, in short, it's not happening any time soon.
3 is one of the best ones
cheesy is good lmao
I don't think it's bad. It was just unexpected in a series that always looked so edgy. While playing DMC2 it was, "There's the cheese again. LOL"
no fucking way it landed HEADS
Thanks, now I don't have to play it

Still don’t get the hate for this game
too easy and story sucks

This game gets way too much hate for a decent experience also after defeating argosax he fights the despair embodied which is a conceptual being
cool, now i don't have to play this game lol
