gotta say, for me mission 12 was the turnover point, before i was really lukewarm on the game but mission 12 and beyond? hell yeah, that shit rocks
Really on the fence about getting this, I enjoyed DMC4 but after playing Bayonetta when that came out, DMC just feels really stiff. It doesn't help I'm not really a character action game fan! The only games similar to this I've completed at the ones mentioned above. The lack of dedicated dodge button in these kind of games always weirds me out.
Bayonetta style? Or can you only dodge left to right with no invincibility frames? That's the only thing I saw. I suppose DMC is a bit slower than Bayonetta to make this dodge viable.
XF270HU(A). It's an IPS, 1440p/144hz FreeSync monitor. Last I checked it's discontinued, though some Microcenters still have it in stock - it's where I got mine a few months ago.
thank you for the info sir, would you recommend that with PS4/Pro?
No. If you'd said XB1X then that'd be a different story. PS4 Pro doesn't support 1440p output, so it's going to look off when connected to one.
MS properly supports 1440p output, and FreeSync, so if you were gonna use it for an Xbox then it makes more sense.
If you didn't know jumping has iframes on the upward part of it. That's one of those things I don't believe gets explained but is useful to know.
Done the first 7 missions.
As much as I adore other character action games, none feel the same way as DMC. Good god it's absolutely fucking great. Nero's devil breakers are an absolutely fantastic of expanding his Depth. There's a lot of variety and all of them are a blast to use.
V is also a lot of fun, but I haven't him pinned down yet. When things get hectic, I tend to rely on mashing buttons without much regard for what moves should I be doing. Not always super effective in terms of damage output, but the style meter doesn't take as much of a hit by doing things without thought like with Nero and, I presume, Dante. And his taunts, my god I can't stop taunting with him, it's amazing.
The story so far seems pretty damn solid. It's up in the air if it can be of similar quality as DMC 3, but it definetly has a shot. The dialogue and banter is on point, Nico is stealing the show at every oportunity that arises, and the flow of the narrative is coherent and satisfying, utilizing it's schlocky nature effectively. Plus, the cutscenes are some of the best I've seen, so that's a major plus.
I'm loving every single second I'm playing. It's everything I wanted, and I haven't gotten to the star of the show yet.

Just got my copy on the way home from work. Can't wait to dive into this. It's been too long, DMC.
Lmaooo I just finished Mission 10 and it's 6am here now. This game is crazy
Bahahaha this game.
The game retroactively teaches you how to best defeat Shadows in DMC1, hahaha! "V can stand on the Skewer" indeed.
The PC version is at 70.3k concurrent players right now. Resident Evil 2 peaked at 74k, and it took 2 days of steady growth to reach that number.
Considering how big of a seller Resident Evil is compared to DMC, I'm really interested to see how it performs commercially. Seems like a shoe in for best selling entry by a long shot.

MHW absolutely blew up on Steam, and how great RE2Remake is still very, very fresh in everyone's mind. I'm not shocked that translated to DMCV exploding on Steam.
MHW had one of the biggest launches ever on Steam. So it really does seem like it exploded Capcom's overall popularity.
Not that I'm complaining. Gimme more good PC ports Capcom.
Also DMCV is at 71.6k now, Interested in seeing how far itll go.
Royal Mail can fuck off a cliff. They do this now, today, with this game!?
"Attempted delivery" my ass. They didn't even leave a card.

I'm gonna be bold and say it hits 100k this weekend, or if not it'll be within striking distance.
In some missions, they happen concurrently to other missions where you might see a different character in the background. In those cases the game will sync you up with someone either playing the mission at the same time or show you ghost data of a player during that section. There are also some missions where you can choose which character to play through it as, and there will be moments where both characters will actively fight with each other.
Im betting on 80-90k range. But 100k would be insanely impressive.
I expected a honeymoon period tbh. A period where I am raving about the game, until later my opinion tempres with time and reflection... But I feel like there ain't one. This isn't the same as not enjoying the game, mind you. I just hoped I'd get that giddy childish feeling of "OMG hype, best game evah" would resurface... I guess I got too old for that kinda reaction.
Deciding whether to buy the standard or deluxe edition. Tempted to buy the latter for playing with the live action cutscenes on a second run.
I was just wondering though, what are the below items? Are they skins that are only acquired through buying the deluxe edition, or are they early unlocks for items that are already in the standard?
- Devil Breaker weapons: Gerbera GP01, Pasta Breaker, Sweet Surrender, Mega Buster
- Dante weapon: Cavaliere R

Played it for 5 hours straight tonight, still have no idea what im rating someone for when that comes up randomly. What am i missing?
Really love the game cant wait to play again on harder modes.

Pasta Breaker, Sweet Surrender and Mega Buster have no in-game equivalent. They are unique.
Gerbera GP01 and Cavaliere R do have in-game equivalent but difference isn't just cosmetic. They have slightly different moves.
You can't unlock them in game
The cameo system is all about seeing other people, actual players or AI, playing across from you in the game. Usually in another mission ahead or behind you. So if you see them fight, after the mission you can rate them if they were stylish or not. In one mission I saw someone destroy the enemies and another mission I didn't see that person at all. All depends how you feel about it. I think it gives you a free gold orb if you were rated Stylish.
Sounds neat, i just havent seen anyone! (Mission 14 now) i give them a thumbsup anyway haha.
Woa, I was thinking it was scripted. Had no idea I was actually watching another player. That's cool. It gives so much life to the game, like V is fighting other there while I'm doing my things here.
Just finished the game, although i found the game to be somewhat easy the final boss is the most i have struggled in the entire series.
While 3 is still my favourite in the series 5 got close, Fantastic game!

The pc version is now at 75.2k concurrent players. Surpassing Resident Evil 2's 74.0k.
Congrats to Capcom on the success! Now to see how far it'll climb

Mission 12 spoilers
Jesus christ at Sin Devil Trigger. I fucking destroyed Urizen like it was nothing lmao.
So I have a few questions about the game because I haven't followed any news about it.
First of all I know there are 3 playable characters but how does this work exactly?Do you choose a character at the start of the game?In each mission?
Or is it fixed in the campaign ?If it's not fixed which one do you recommend to start with?
Second, which difficulty do you recommend for the first playthrough?
I consider myself good at action games but it's been some time since I played a DMC game, soo I don't know....
Thanks in advance!

I impusively bought this. No regrets. So much fun. V has been great to play.
I saw in a loading tip you can switch auto mode on on the fly. I did it for one of the boss fights. It was fun to see what good players could actually do.

It depends on the mission. Some only allow one, some let you pick from 2-3.
Dante > Nero > V in terms of difficult.
For the most part the character you play as in each mission is fixed but there are a few certain missions where you can pick between two characters or all three. It's up to you who you want to play as in those missions, because you'll have already played as each character a few times by then.
It's entirely up to you really. If you'd rather be cautious just play the first few missions on Human and go up if it's too easy or vice versa if you want to start on Devil Hunter and go down if it's too much.
Played up to Chapter 9 and I'm done for the night. I'm SOAKED with sweat; this game is intense and I absolutely love it.
I'm really warming up to V, too. I still don't quite have a handle on how best to send out Shadow and Griffon and how to call them back, though. I know you can call Griffon back with a lock-on backwards jump and Shadow with a sideways dodge, but is there a way to call them both back at once? I know I've seen V whistle and call them back, but I can't remember how I did it :P

reached the second boss..i didn't like the first one that much..the collision detection was a big iffy and the boss was all full swings that covered a shitton of space.
game hasn't "clicked" for me yet..can't seem to get a stylish score, sometimes becaue i'm bad, sometimes becaue i lose combo score trying to see where the hell the enemies are since the camera isn't much of a teamate in this game.
you don't have any way to switch between devil breakers right? seems like a pretty annoying limitation
also..how do i use the rocket punch effectively? I jump on it but most of the time i just lose combo score trying to actually manouvre th damn thing and i seem to be way less effective in general when i'm on that thing..doesn't help that the game doesn't seem to explain the moveset.
let's see if the game gets better
