Thanks for the suggestions. I didn't even realize my GMG.com order didn't include the extras, which I understand considering it's cheaper. I just snagged one from ebay, too.Alternate colours are pre-order bonuses only unfortunately, my copy was just the base game so I brought the DLC bundle but that didn't include the outfits, ended up going to ebay where you'll sometimes find people selling pre-order bonuses separate after release. I actually did have the game pre-ordered on PC but cancelled after I got an early copy, spent that money on getting a PS4 version as well but not a pre-order. Horizon Zero Dawn also had a pre-order only outfit which looked really good but wasn't available in any version of the game, did the same there, went to ebay and brought it from there.
V has by far the least amount of missions in the game. You're only required to play as him four times.
Did you see the vid i posted the other day? Yea i'm good with that too lmaoAgreed. Nero is fantastic. I'm totally ok with a solo Nero game now.
And I wasn't a fan in DMC4 at all.
This is what I take from it as well. Loved how it all played out and excited to see where they take it all.You guys seem to be missing a lot of the actual spoken dialogue in the game regarding the plot.
Splitting himself in two was a mistake. Vergil was fighting against his human half, resenting it, wanting to get rid of it. But after he did that, when he realized that "He" was the human half all along, he knew he would need Dante's help to get back to his demon half and become whole again. Vergil never intended to grow the Qlipoth and become the Demon King of Hell. That was all Urizen who is just nothing but blind lust for power and revenge.
Vergil is being honest when he tells Trish about what happened. Being V made him realize how important his humanity is and who he is. He's also being honest when he's being carried by Nero and he says all he wanted was to be protected. He's talking about himself when he was a child and he felt abandoned by his mother because from his perspective she left him to die to save Dante over him and then she got killed anyway.
What V is NOT being honest about is he doesn't want to defeat Urizen to kill him. He wants to use Dante to subdue Urizen so he can merge back together with him again.
*That* is why he's smirking when Nero is carrying him. He thinks his plan is going to work and Nero and Dante will get him to Urizen and he'll be able to rejoin and get his demon powers back again.
You can tell after the split when V is visibly shaken by what's happened that the outcome was NOT what Vergil intended. You can tell from V's dialogue to himself/Griffin in Mission 4 about how he will NOT let Urizen become more powerful that he does not want Urizen to end up eating the fruit.
Vergil does change and grow as a character after becoming whole. He still wants to settle things with Dante but you can tell from how he reacts to being beaten by Nero by making an excuse to save a human city that you know Vergil wouldn't normally give two shits about, but his son wants to save it so he's going along.
He also gives his William Blake book to Nero, with the excuse that it's just for him to hold onto until he returns. It takes a little reading in the Gallery library but that book was very dear to Vergil since childhood. You can also tell by how he thanked Nero right after becoming whole, that's not something the old Vergil would have done.
Or how in the after credits scene when he's just sparring with Dante in a friendly and non-lethal manner just to pass the time. He's always going to be an asshole that will have to make an excuse to do anything remotely nice but I think they made it obvious that he's moved on from who he used to be and in the end is accepting of Dante and Nero as his family.
I was in the same boat as you. Finished the game the day before yesterday on Devil Hunter and immediately wanted to jump back in. So I unlocked the other ending right away and then spent over an hour in the Void before starting new on SoS difficulty. The first run is mostly a tutorial, the fun starts with Son of Sparda.Finished it last night and I'm already pretty hyped for my next playthrough. I...might even get the digital upgrade to the deluxe edition, I never do this kind of thing. But every aspect of it seems perfect to spice up multiple playthroughs. I haven't really seen anyone complain about that content, at any rate.

the giant preying mantis and fetish alligators can be real damage sponges on dmd
Main one is that Sparda/Rebellion have Round Trip which is a very strong tool. Also they can do reverse Helm Breakers easier since it's on a button as opposed to a command. It's really for top end players where something like that would make a big difference. Overall I would say for most players to just stick with DSD as it can do pretty much everything than the normal swords (even has its own variant of Round Trip).Sparda or Rebellion and DSD makes sense, but carrying all 3 would be purely for memes I'd imagine.
Actually, other than instant prop shredder, what differences are there between Sparda/Rebellion's moveset and DSD?
Did you see the vid i posted the other day? Yea i'm good with that too lmao
Platinum games spectacle but actually gameplay.
Nero/dante/V all have insane damaging moves. Time to use themthe giant preying mantis and fetish alligators can be real damage sponges on dmd

Getting hit by random projectiles in Hell and Hell mode is the worst. I killed one of those scissor enemies and their scissor landed on me. -_-

Seems Capcom won't be bragging about DMCVs sales, unlike RE2.
Well at least we got this one game.

Tbh, I'll have to disagree about the smirk.
To me it felt like more of a heartfelt moment where he finally accepted someone's help when Nero helped him walk.
He actually like Nero I think which is why he thanks him later when he became Vergil again.

Well said. My initial reaction to it wasn't very good.I thought Vergil was being a fucking baby. Wah I keep losing to Dante. Well, he kinda was but it was deeper than that. I just wonder how he knew that if he merged back with Urizen he would be restored to power. Regardless, I'm glad he's not a villain anymore. He's also obviously not very photogenic because the dude is handsome lol. The leaked made him look out of shape.
Bayo games barely have story so this is not a big fence to clear.I know a lot of people were disappointed in the story but I thought it was a lot better than Bayo (especially 2), even if it was at the cost of setpieces.
Yeah I quite like him, I think he has some of the best taunts too.

Map gun to a trigger (especially V as well). Your fingers will thank you.
There were quite some action scenes interspersed through the whole game but aside from the van and weapon pop off scenes... there wasn't anything like DMC3 where Dante would pop off for minutes for no real reason except if its like end/start of a mission. DMC5 was really more committed to moving the story along with every cutscene, hence it had more dialogue than any DMC game before it.Anyone else disappointed with the lack of over the top action scenes the likes of 3 and 4?

I agree with their decision to focus more on characterization compared to OTT cinematics, (ofc there are plenty of those but considering the character switching they're less frequent). Like one of the my favorite scenes in the game is Lady explaining what happened, or V's convo with Trish. Very quiet and tone doned scenes, music is more subdued, lots of focus on microexpressions, voice tone, and body language. I enjoy those types of moments.Anyone else disappointed with the lack of over the top action scenes the likes of 3 and 4?

It'd be dope if the bloody palace stage is one of the two moving stages(dabte secret mission and Nero/v mission 7)If bloody palace is just more Qliphoth walls forever I'll be sad. Hope there's some variety.
Also, Balrog not having a forward + style move in kick mode is bullshit.
