| Experimental42 said: It was created by the founders of Platinum and a good chunk of their staff, and even though they are gone from it, their fingerprints are all over the series. Particularly the third entry. They strayed from Kamiya's blue prints with the second game and it bombed miserably. The third installment is pretty much an attempt to get that "Kamiya" feel back and it's so successful that many fans to this day think Kamiya and Platinum were involved with DMC3. |
If you played one good game then the second game which Capcom made aware it was by a different development team that turned out to be absolute ass, then heard again that the development team was changing for the third one. Common sense would be, hey they went back to the first development team, especially gamers who aren't in the know. Combos going back to timed button presses, etc.
The fact of the matter though, that none of this even matters because Platinum games didn't develop DMC3. Platinum had no part in the advancements made to the series, had no part in developing the large amount of well designed bosses that far exceed the quality of the four bosses you repeatedly fight on the first game. This isn't to bash Platinum though. They've made good games, just throwing the fact thatKamiya didn't help create anything other than the first DMC in the series, so stop trying to give credit where credit isn't due.
