I just beat DMC4 and am seriously pleased with how the game turned out. However there are a few issues I did not like about it and would like capcom to change for the next one. And shockingly, here they are:
Game music - the same song plays when you fight as Nero and another same metal tune plays when you get to play as Dante. Bosses have different music but most of the gameplay you listen to the same song over and over. There are plenty of unsigned metal bands who would bend over backwards and write and licence kick ass metal tunes for 10 grand. My old band included...
Difficulty - the easy difficulty is laughable easy. the other one is too hard. No surprise there as that's been the norm for most DMC games. Capcom needs to fine tune that.
Mini-missions - I hated all the mini missions scattered through out the game. They don’t bring anything to the story and are just a cheap way to prolong the game. The should have a mini-mission unlockable after you beat the game and take it out of the main game.
Puzzles - There are no puzzles in this game. None. There is a magical forest part where you kinda get lost if you are 12 or less and thats it. I'm not saying every game needs puzzles but this one with constant hack n slash gameplay would benefit from a little change of pace.
And thats it. Everything else was bang on in my opinion. If I was on IGNs payroll and was asked to review it I'd give the game 8.3/10.
Anyone else care to share experiences with DMC4?
