I really, really love that you gave DMC its flowers. And as someone who was roughly 10-11 years old when DMC1 dropped, I cannot tell you how revolutionary it was at the time. It was mind blowing. 3D action games this fast paced just didn’t exist before. Everyone I know got copies almost right away after word of mouth in our area spread like wildfire. I was the first one to beat it out of my friends over at a friend’s house during a sleepover. Ofc, growing up playing RE and them going into DMC was such an experience I cannot really put into words. But yeah. What a crazy time to grow up playing games when the internet wasn’t where we got our information, and I wouldn’t know the effect DMC had on people until I was in high school.
Hideki Kamiya is back at Capcom, so we getting a DMC6 sooner or later. But a remake of DMC1 from the creator of DMC1 would be awesome. Maybe he can also redo DMC2.
I'd honestly have Kamiya NOT involved in the DMC1 remake since there was so much world building done by itsuno's team from DMC3 onwards to the point where Kamiya DMC and Itsuno DMC are really two different concepts since Itsuno really built up the limited framework given to him by Capcom into a lore heavy universe, and I really think the people who are still at capcom who used to be on his team should make a DMC1 remake instead while Kamiya focuses on Okami and Viewtiful Joe.
21:40 I always viewed it as Dante being so strong, he doesn’t care about the Trap. Would explain how he gets over the “betrayal” on the last Nighmare fight instantly. And in truth it works. Since the crisis of DMC1 is the “work Dante has been waiting for many years” since he finally finds Mundus.
That Alastor cutscene has lived in my head rent free since I was 10 years old dude. That shit solidified Dante for me as a certified sick ass mfer. I love our crazy whacky red coated pizza dude.
jesus. i searched up devil may cry 5 days ago and watched majority of your devil may cry videoes. never have i thought you would drop a 3 hour video days later after finding your channel!
Completed devil may cry when it came out. Hated 2 and never completed it and 3 was so hard I never completed it. 4 is probably my favourite as I have completed it a few times and the story and characters were amazing. I really enjoyed DMC for what it was and 5 is an amazing comeback to the series.
DMC3 was such a great ass game and it has so many important lines that has ripple effects thru the series I truly thought they’d be unable to catch lighting in a bottle again til DMC5 dropped
Really enjoyed the DMC2 review, mostly because most reviews I see are memeing on it but you approached it from a point of view of a fan who wanted to like it. Really enjoyed the whole video, man PS2 was so nostalgic, games have changed so much it's crazy. Modern games feel so bloated and over designed compared to the simplicity of past games.
Dmc is definitely one of my top franchises. Funnily enough, metal gear rising was also my gateway into this series. I hope that new Netflix show rocks as hard as the games.
Just finished my first playthroughs of Dmc 1-5 yesterday and ngl I owe it all to J for putting me on with his DMC 1 review. Hell, I even enjoyed Dmc 2 to an extent
I had no idea the DMC series is complete. Where did you hear that the series was finished, as the title clearly states. If they make more wouldn't the series continue?
DMC reboot got a lot of hate but it genuinely is fun as hell to play, man. Kinda benefit from not being a super fan on that one; I didn’t go in feeling incensed and just wanted a smokin sick stylish game to play lol
I agree its fun, but was a far cry from the original devil may cry we grew up with. If it were called something different, nobody would've had a problem with it
You're all entitled to your opinion.. but like all your "arguments" fall on the fact it's a reboot How would you know what a Devil May Cry is supposed to be anyway? 2 and 3 and 4 are ALL different from one another too, and a far cry from the very first installment The whole "it should've been something else and it's not DMC" screams closed mindedness about the devs' works, since they have more access to DMC
@@moogymog1722 Except Dante in the main series had a completely different personality than his reboot counterpart as well as design and Devil May Cry 1-4 in terms of story is all connected
Was 4 years old when this series started this Jak and daxter metal gear solid 2 came with my first PS2 my Daddy loves this series I'm 27 now 2001 to 2019 not a bad lifespan rock on DMC ❤❤
Hey excellent review on devil may cry 3. I just want to inform you I think you left out some cool and very important things. For starters Dante’s devil trigger changing appearance with each weapon isn’t just for aesthetics. Each weapon also has a passive effect. For example; Rebellion in a balance between all stats and you can also glide. Cerberus gives Dante extra speed, Agni and Rudra give Dante an elemental damage boost, Nevan increases Dante’s healing capabilities, and Beowulf give Dante extra stun resistance. I also wish you would have mentioned Dante Must Die mode because the enemies gain their own devil trigger further enhancing the difficulty and the way you approach each battle. Additionally, upon completion of each mode you gain new outfits, you can even get super Dante which grants him infinite devil trigger in exchange of health regeneration. Also when beating the game with Vergil you can unlock his corrupted form which when going into devil trigger lets you play as Nelo Angelo. You also didn’t mention bloody palace. Im writing this comment at the end of the dmc3 section so as I continue if I hear you talk about it I’ll delete the comment. Again great review so far I’m enjoying it!
@J's Reviews, You covered Sonic and Devil May Cry a lot. Pretty good videos. But there's one series I don't see you cover enough. There should be at least twenty videos on the Doom series. Will you do it? Doom The Dark Ages comes out in a few months. So I can't see a better time to start now.
It would've been cool to have have a toggleble option to let Agni&Rudra speak and just flat out compliment you for being stylish/using stylish combo's, or having them motivate you if you had a low style ranking while you had them equipped.
1:40:35. If you have two controllers the second controller after pressing start, can take control of Vergil. It also works with the Doppelganger style but obviously that works best with the Super Sparda character with infinite devil trigger!!!!
Just so you know, doppelganger and the mission fighting along side vergil is multi-player. Summon the shadow with the infinite devil trigger and you have a 2 player game
Are you gonna do Battle Network games? So many fond memories. I got the first and third one new back in the day. Then the DS one when it was new. Picked the rest up from used game places. edit: If/when you make one, you should look up the horrible mistranslation about a squirrel that was in one of them, lol.
I did played the reboot DMC game, and compared to most of Devil May Cry games it was not bad but it’s not the best writing wise especially the try hard edge lord lines.
DMC 2 was my first DMC game and I thought that was good until 3 came out and played that and then 1 and when I played 2 again, I realized how flawed that game was compared to the others.
Loved this series since i was about 7 i think i was when i got the first and also loved 2 as a kid and remember playing that the most till 4 came out not so much anymore 😂
Devil May Cru is FINISHED. Literally. It’s over. Not saying that it took a misstep. It’s that it’s just it. Capcom has made surveys. Dante is always the most beloved character from all their IPs. Yet Capcom never gave them the ability to go “all out” and neither have they milked it. DMC1 to 2 was the only time we saw things go “back to back” and that isn’t saying much considering DMC1 is super STANDALONE while DMC2 started in development hell yet ended up being the team in charge of the entire series. DMC5 made us all happy because it meant that DMC DMC was death and OG style was alive… yet at the same time it SIMPLY CONCLUDED THE SERIES! We have gotten 0 rumors of a sequel. The devs responsible moved on by making Dragon’s Dogma 2. And the director of the DMC series recently left. I learned… I leaned to let go. I’m happy I played this on PS2 and I’m happy that the games still exist and I can revisit them from time to time. But like the series I too am finished. Doing crazy combos comes natural yet I don’t get any pleasure nor do I have anything left to prove since I’m “the King of Hell” in every game already. GG’s
@ your opinion on anything becomes invalid the moment you use “sus” to describe something. Also, it’s not debatable in any way because it is my opinion.
I am trying to understand at what point did DMC fall ? DMC 1 was great, DMC 2 was just bad because of the limited time developers were given DMC 3 was peak of Dante, DMC 4 was just as good and DMC 5 was a great conclusion to the Sons of Sparda. DmC reboot does not count in the franchise's downfall since that is a total different universe. So I fail to see where the fall part is.
I really, really love that you gave DMC its flowers.

@@MarkMann1 true I do prefer Itsuno universe compared to Kamiya. But I am still kinda interested on what kinda modern DMC he would make.

Nice name for the video. I started getting into Devil May Cry after playing both God of War and Metal Gear Rising Revengeance. I started with DMC5.
Why would you start with the 5th entry? This isn't a fighting game, don't do that.
Don't bother responding to this guy as he's a massive asshole.

@@MarkMann1 Umm. Dmc 5 was designed for newcomers for the franchise. Do your homework first before replying to me.
@MarkMann1 Jesus Christ. It has a bloody recap in the fame for gods sake. 😡🤦♂️
I want Devil May Cry 6 so much
You’re not only got me into devil may cry, but you also got me into sonic and the last of us as well. Thank you very much man.❤️
Very good video enjoyed your input and got me excited to play another round of DMC 4, DMC, and 5.
Hey man, this is the exact content I'm looking for and I didn't even know it. Thank you.
DMD on the 1st game broke me when i was a kid. By far one of the hardest challenges, especially when you want Super Dante 😭
Completed devil may cry when it came out. Hated 2 and never completed it and 3 was so hard I never completed it. 4 is probably my favourite as I have completed it a few times and the story and characters were amazing. I really enjoyed DMC for what it was and 5 is an amazing comeback to the series.
Glad you made another DMC5 retrospective (or well a comp of it) because I have gotten into it a few months ago. Thanks for making this man!!
DMC games are the only spectacle fighter games that I have ever been able to get into. Even the reboot was fun in its own way. Thanks for the reviews!
I was about to watch the DMC playlist too, thanks J and Happy New Years.
As a fan of the series since the beginning, it was one hell of a ride.
But I wouldn't trade it for anything.
3:01:40, Nero's arm had access to Hammerspace. Everytime the Yamato changes into the arm, they're effectively trading places with each other.
DMC3 was such a great ass game and it has so many important lines that has ripple effects thru the series I truly thought they’d be unable to catch lighting in a bottle again til DMC5 dropped
I've been waiting for this
That 3 hour 9 minutes word salad joke made me lmao, earning my sub in the process. We'll done!
been waiting for this… thank u goat
It’s so cool nico is the granddaughter of the lady who made ebony and ivory shoutout Tony Redgrave
I was shocked when they added style and weapon switching for DMC3's switch version. I wish they updated every version but alas
Im so annoyed they only added it to the Switch version
I’ve been waiting for this complete retrospective. Happy New Year J! Thank you

title means that it's just compilation of all his review videos in one video
Capcom if you can hear me please make a DMC 1&2 Remake with the same depth and respect you gave to RE😭
Actually, can we get a new story? If they want to remake something, they can remake the Onimusha series and hopefully turn it into a horror.
@ why not both!? No but seriously, I’d be happy with anything new from the Mainline DMC series.
Long live Devil May Cry 3!
DMC reboot got a lot of hate but it genuinely is fun as hell to play, man. Kinda benefit from not being a super fan on that one; I didn’t go in feeling incensed and just wanted a smokin sick stylish game to play lol

100% honesty here, I thought every scene and dialogue you showed of the reboot was 10/10. Never played any of these but just a first impression
They should honestly make a sequel to the remake, while still making dmc 6. I'll take both series please and thank you
@J's Reviews, You covered Sonic and Devil May Cry a lot. Pretty good videos. But there's one series I don't see you cover enough. There should be at least twenty videos on the Doom series. Will you do it? Doom The Dark Ages comes out in a few months. So I can't see a better time to start now.

@@Summorial2only the first is worth it, end.
@@LedNe0nDevil NG04? NGBLACK? NG SIGMA? the second one is actually great if you play the original version of course and not Sigma.

One thing to mention about the original dmc3 is that you could have a 2nd player control doppelganger and Vergil.
Happy new year J🙏 happy new year for us too because a new vid, let’s go 🫡
The best thing to come out of DMC2 is Dante's sword Rebellion, rule of cool
Jackpot video!
1:40:35. If you have two controllers the second controller after pressing start, can take control of Vergil. It also works with the Doppelganger style but obviously that works best with the Super Sparda character with infinite devil trigger!!!!
i love devil may cry
We eating good tonight boys!
I hope master J heads back in to Metal Gear Solid.

I need my Sonic Movie 3 review from you
40:40
You're one of like three people to dig decent tech out of this game
Are you gonna do Battle Network games? So many fond memories. I got the first and third one new back in the day. Then the DS one when it was new. Picked the rest up from used game places.
edit: If/when you make one, you should look up the horrible mistranslation about a squirrel that was in one of them, lol.
Remind me if i ever get around to playing DMC 3 to get it on switch
33:35 actually had me dieing
Yamato has always been able to open portals and Nero absorbed it in 4. That's explained before 5 came out
I did played the reboot DMC game, and compared to most of Devil May Cry games it was not bad but it’s not the best writing wise especially the try hard edge lord lines.
Please review the god of war games!
Are you open to playing and reviewing games suggested from your audience that you might have never played, j's reviews?
DMC 2 was my first DMC game and I thought that was good until 3 came out and played that and then 1 and when I played 2 again, I realized how flawed that game was compared to the others.
Loved this series since i was about 7 i think i was when i got the first and also loved 2 as a kid and remember playing that the most till 4 came out not so much anymore 😂
You should do the rise and fall of Dead or Alive
Dante in DMC 4 is closer to a more elaborated Vergil mode
Try onimusha 3 if you like re and dmc.
I think you'll like it.
Also genji and blood will tell.
So a DMC reboot may get made by Kamiya , seeing the dude starting a new gaming Studio Clovers ( Again)
Also it's actually Nero Angelo ( Black Angel)
You should do all 8 god of war games retrospective
In canon, it makes sense because DMC2 Dante had just killed his brother.
J can you please review the video game “Dante’s Inferno” which had a very interesting marketing campaign and is criminally underrated 🙏
Dmc5 on pc never got the special edition?
No extra enemies mode?
Was hoping we’d get the anime video back 😢
Now make a bayonetta review J
Devil May Cry 2 according to J is D Tier (Bad games that are enjoyable)
Devil May Cru is FINISHED.
Literally.
It’s over.
Not saying that it took a misstep. It’s that it’s just it.

I learned… I leaned to let go.
I’m happy I played this on PS2 and I’m happy that the games still exist and I can revisit them from time to time.
But like the series I too am finished.
Doing crazy combos comes natural yet I don’t get any pleasure nor do I have anything left to prove since I’m “the King of Hell” in every game already.
GG’s
You must be able to see the future. Fyi, Kamiya, the original creator has expressed interest in returning to the franchise and hes now back at Capcom.
Confused. Devil May Cry isn't a company.
I don’t know why but I didn’t enjoyed it as dmc3 or 4 when it comes to gameplay…but for story…it’s as good as all of them (except dmc2)
$30/$50 for a shirt/hoodie with a J on it is diabolical 😭
Low-key, Trish plays so well, it almost compensates for how bad DMC2 is.
58:25 😂
This is the order of games from great to good:
DMC5
DmC
DMC3
DMC1
DMC4
DMC2
That is all.
This is highly debatable. I put 3 in #1 spot for sure. Having the reboot that high is pretty sus as well.
To each their own though.
