what dude looks malnurished and like a base head.....how exactly is that cool again? i think i'll just chalk this up to differences in culture in the uk

Dear god, no no no no no no no no no no.

British people are not like that.

Except in a few places like Camden.

This argument again.....While I agree that new Dante isn't as attractive as old Dante, I do believe the series was in dire need for a reboot considering how much crap I had to listen to because people didn't really care for Devil May Cry 4 (which of course, people are suddenly going to change their story since they don't like the new look of Dante). Changing the physical attributes of a character doesn't guarantee that gameplay or story will be worse in any sense. And those are more important to me than worry about the fact the main character looks like he's from an emo band now.

I love devil May Cry 4. I'm going to wait until more gameplay vids comeout,then judge the game. People say that they don't want the same thing over and over,but when they change things up,people all of a sudden cry foul. You can't have it both ways. That's my take on it.

lol, you guys are silly. How old are you, and you still haven't learned not to judge a book by its cover? Being hyper-critical just because it's fun to have an opinion is something you should grow out of. Give shit a chance before you burn it down and you'll have a happier life.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

That's the case for any franchise. They'll claim how the last change in the franchise ruined the franchise, up until the new change, where they promptly begin to praise the old epoch.

 

See: The Wind Waker, Resident Evil 4.

 

But Ninja Theory should be advised that character retcons are to be handled carefully, else you might as well have produced your own original character.
