RIGHT!!!!

This could be the best thing that happens all gen for me!!!!! THANK YOU CAPCOM! Megaman 11, Devil May Cry 5, we already got Dead Rising 4, Capcom's killing it, absolutely fucking killing it! 

So because you want to have Capcom pretending DmC didn't exist it also stopped being released?

Bayonetta 1 was a Multiplat and last I checked in VGC Bayo2 was sub 1M (but now it have double dips with Switch release). But if you want sure, will be even harder for DMC5 to reach the how much you will say Bayo 3 will sell?

What he's saying is that the fate of the DMC franchise was very uncertain for the past 10 years.
DMC was steadily released around every 2 years up until DMC4 where sales dropped significantly. Capcom didn't know what to do, so they decided to reboot the franchise 5 years later with DmC. That blew up in their face and so people didn't know when we'd see DMC again, or if it would turn out like Megaman/Megaman X.

Competition as far as how great a hack/slash game can be which sells better, but I was more thinking about how much I personally will like it, as well as critically how well will it score. Also who knows how well a game that is a sequel to a 10 year old game will do as far as sales. I personally think sales are a lock being Bayo only has the Switches audience while DMC has PC, PS4, and Xbone, but neither really fly off shelves.

As for the first sentence, who here KNEW there was gonna be a Devil May Cry 5. There was speculation, but there's speculation every year Half Life 3, Mother 3, and all sorts of crazy crap will release. This is like Mass Effect, will we ever see it again? If so it would be a pretty darn big surprise.

Still in the last 10 years they released a collection and a reboot. Also we had entries on previous gen, so it wasn't totally unexpected to see one this gen.

So you could have just been clear on your first post with "now Bayo3 will have competition for my preference", because the way you posted seemed like Bayo3 would be incontested, which from the sales and critics of GoW it isn't right.

We have had a remaster collection and a reboot last gen, so it wasn't totally unexpected to see one this gen. The time since last game is much tied to development time for this gen.

I'm not only looking at it from my preference. How will all DMC fans react. How will it score compared to DmC and Bayo 3 (Bayo 2 was scored VERY favorably) on Metacritic. As I said, there are numerous ways we can look at competition. You are putting it into one specific term that I never mentioned, but will also be interesting to see.

As for a reboot and the hd collections, that's quite a jump to say that insured we'd see a DMC 5.

So if you are talking about fan reactions, sales and critics, Bayo haven't even passed GoW to say now it'll have a competitor.

There is a very big diference between insured and your "biggest surprise", which on the middle ground says it's expected that a sequel would arise sometime.

I think it's hard to say Bayo 2 wasn't the best hack and slash game in years, and the fact that Bayo 2 scored higher than all previous DMC games on Metacritic outside the original one means there's some reason to believe Bayo could pull this through, let alone Bayo 3 which could be better.

I would disagree. Tell me, will Silent Hill come out this gen too? You seem to know these things.
