You've got some major reading problems if you somehow picked that up from what I said. I never, ever claimed that DMC3 didn't have issues (or any other game in the franchise). I said the first and third game were masterpieces. Perfect? Not at all, but they're both well contained, tight, enjoyable action titles that are well paced (outside of the first mission of DMC1) and at the top of their genre, at least in my opinion.
DmC was by no means the first "flawed" game in the series, but it was a major step back. Pretentious story trying way too hard to be taken seriously, dumbed down combat scheme that removed quite a bit of what fans enjoyed from the previous DMC games, a frankly bizarre decision to put enemies in the later levels that were only vulnerable to 1 or 2 weapons which limited combat variety big time and some incredibly underwhelming boss fights.
With all that said, that's simply why I didn't like the game. The artstyle is something I found intriguing, but it wasn't enough to offset the rest of the game. If you like it, then hey, more power to you. But don't pretend that you somehow speak for the entirety of the fanbase here.
