Jep. On PC.
I play both the X and PC Versions of the game. On PC I have no dynamic music whatsoever. On X it sounds like a metal festival.

I can tell its a pretty bad habit that I need to get rid of, problem is I do this in almost every game so its tough to get rid of
Does anyone have a good alternate control scheme for V? It feels like my right hand is doing too much work compared to my left. I think I should put the panther or bird on the left side of the controller
I leave everything on default for him, but I moved Griffon to R2. If you want to balance it out across your hands, you could definitely put it to L2 though. Lets you comfortable do those charge moves while still attacking with Shadow.
This game is really bad at building mystery...laying out a story....telling a story. I'm only 4 missions in, but I can't help but laugh when the timeline summary has crap like, "And what is V's true motive?" Who gives a shit? You haven't even properly introduced V and how he and Nero met, so a non-mystery has become more important than the "mystery" to me now.
This seems like a great tip, and I can see straight away how it would help me with chaining enemies and general combat flow.
I, on the other hand, loved every second of it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
(Except for the sexist garbage that is)
For me the big problem is that it's incredibly fucking obvious who V is and what he wants.
I think the game is basically perfect besides the massive disrespect given to Lady and Trish, and the fact that even as someone that avoided a lot of pre-release media, it was extremely obvious what the answer to every question was.
The storytelling is clearly worse than 3/4. Really question the logic of starting a story in media res, with some characters nobody knows with some crazy situation we dont know anything about, then flashing forward a month later(???) annnnnd...not explaining any of it(????). With random flashbacks in-between to Nero's arm being stolen or halfway through the game V approaching Dante. Like the fuck???
I know nobody gon give a shit about any of this when we're all trying to S rank DMD but the narrative context for the events of this game is weak.
Wow, ok anyone who hasn't done this room/area yet, it seems that if you kill the enemies too quickly, the floor won't drop all the way, and then you're shit outta luck. WTF.
I ended up having to run around in circles, avoiding enemies, for a while to get the floor to fully drop.
edit: never mind, I was wrong.

Is this in mission 8? If so there's a ledge you can jump to that has a bunch of bonus red orbs as well as a path that continues the stage.
That first Urizen fight is soooo bad..the one with the cutscenes taking you out of the fight 2 times, when replaying the game it stings even more....wtf were they thinking

and then? clicking again to use the breaker move? would be extra clunky
edit: I just realized that if you hold X after the job (for the wall jump) it goes higher. Don't mind me. I'm an idiot. lol
I'm at least glad I'm not the only one bugged by this stuff.
I told my brother last night---the real twist is going be if all these mysteries don't wind up being answered with exactly what you expect with how obvious some of it is.
On PC you can create this option through steam overlay (controller config). Also IMHO if you change the lock on button to L2 it became a lot better to hold.
DMC games really make you work for the achievements. I remember putting tons of time into DMC4, beating it like 4 times, and only having like 30% of the achievements when I was ready to move on to something else.
It's a DMC game. I do not know what you were expecting.Re-watching some cutscenes cause I accidentally pressed start during two of them and Urizen's dialogue man
Crap... I'm trying to impulse buy this game but it is sold out EVERYWHERE around me. Good for Capcom but fuck me lol.
Man. Using dante with balrog, switching between kick mode and punch mode mid air with sword master to stay in the air consistently while fighting Calvaliere, occasionally parrying and dodging with trickster, is unbelievable
This game so far above and beyond any other Devil May Cry game, which is my favorite franchise, is the highest praise I can give a video game
I am in complete awe with the combat system

Yea it's insane.
Also Nero is going to be a monster with the Breaker swap mod.
It's kinda crazy that even in the final fight of the game you are getting new tools to play with as well as in post game. They had more mechanics than the full game can handle!
Just finished the game. Damn I didnt want it to end, the game was so hype at the end on terms of combat. Man this game was great definitely up there with 3.
I hate that V was Vergil and now he's back being him. V was an awesome character and I want him back.
DMC team doubling down on Nero being the main hero just hurts. Even in DMC4 I absolutely HATED Nero and he still hasnt won me over. He's a shit character and that will never change.
Overall I'm disappointed that characters I like are written off for now. While I'm sure Dante and Vergil will be back in 6, it still stings that such a great concept as V in terms of a summoner in combat is now gone.

I've played a lot of video games, and I don't think I've ever experienced anything as cool as getting in the rhythm, breaking into S-rank, and hearing the chorus of Devil Trigger start playing. This game is a masterpiece.
Yeah that's frustrating. It's a weird choice considering Dante's kit seems way more powerful if you have all the weapons. My guess is that they wanted a simpler character that didn't overwhelm newer players, I dunno. They should at least have given you the option on NG+.
yep they could have unlocked Breaker switching after the first playthrough, i still have the suspicion that it was implemented as a red orb sink.
Just beat the game and holy shit what a amazing game.
It was really a love letter to fans and the series.
Itsuno did not disappoint. Expactations Max Exceeded.

Trickster Style's hold RB + forward B. Should teleport you right next to them. It's almost all I use Trickster for lol.
I wouldn't say worse than 4 - while the structure was more conventional there, there were also no stakes or weight to anything, and the entire game felt completely pointless for everyone involved.
But the overall storytelling is definitely confused at times in what it wants to achieve, despite some of its individual elements being an improvement from 4. Contorting the timeline and going to extreme pains to draw out a 'twist' that's spelled out in the opening cutscene / first trailer in particular just seems like a waste of effort. But at the same time, without tying itself into a knot, there's just not a great deal there to tell.
I love everything about the game except for the environments. They remind me of how dull and similar the environments were in DMC2 and that's starting to harsh my buzz.
Huh, how do you get 2nd KA? Is it upgrade related? Still didn't fully upgrade it.
If Trish will be became playable character.I bet Itsuno will give Alastor to her.
I beat the Normal difficulty in 9 hours, that's around minimum without any practicing and very few secret missions. If you like character action games, probably at least double that for additional difficulties.
No it's Dante's damn it
Dante should have some twins and his daughter will get Alastor while the son will get Ifrit
