So you don't think that people who DMC have played the full game? Well, that just makes perfect sense doesn't it?

So if they have not played the game why should they be hating?, when lots of people are telling them the game is great you would think they would listen but nooo.

I for one am happy they get trolled within the first few minutes of the game lulz xD


I'm not talking about never having played the game, rather people who play a little bit and then don't like it.

I know I would have hated it, I watched my friend play a demo, the boss fight was pretty cool but overall I've never been a fan of 3rd person action games do despite the obvious production values this game has and the improved story and acting, it would simply be unbearable to me because of the gameplay.

I guess what I'm trying to say is; some "hate" is legitimate and well founded. Bashing a game you've never tried or seen is silly though. For the record, I've tried most of the DMC games but never enjoyed them. Dante is a cool character and the setting is sometimes really cool as well but I simply cannot get past the gameplay.

Well in your case the hate is legit as you just dont like the type of games, but i just really dont understand how people can call themselfs fans of the series and not like this game when imo its the best in the series so far.

Well, that's the thing, long time fans of the series might not enjoy the changes at all. Its kind of the same as Resident Evil, I have always loved and enjoyed that series but it started going downhill fast with number 5 and number 6 is simply a bad action game riddled with QTE's so I longer like the series since it no longer resembles itself at all. I'm not saying that everyone who hates on DMC think exactly like that, or that the changes to that franchise are anywhere near as big as in Resident Evil but I do think that a lot of people are having the same kind of problem with it.

There are plenty of series that took directions I don't like and directly led to me simply stoping playing them; Burnout, Need for Speed, Call of Duty, Resident Evil, Tomb Raider, Dragon Age, Mass Effect, Final Fantasy, Silent Hill etc. And many, many more. Things change and when you get to a certain point, the elements that appealed to some people and made them love them (games) in the first place are too diluted or simply gone, some have a lower limit of tolerance and abandon ship faster while some stay and some even get fresh love for the series due to new features and elements that are implemented, you seem to belong to the latter category and that's fine! But, remember all those people who have been playing games for ages and don't like these changes, or simply those who dislike the direction a series is taking, there is a lot of legitimate critique and groweling over this. Not all change is good change.

To flat out trolls who never cared for the games to begin with; ***k them.
