So uhm... are there alt.costumes in this? Hopefully there are more than 1 per character.
Don't seem to be any, and unfortunately it makes sense because they had to literally make the clothes and scan them, so I can't imagine them doing much other than palette swaps

It took them like 8 thousand dollars to develop a costume and then scan them. Most likely any actual different costume is going to be like a 5 dollar DLC.
Honestly they should have given us some plain clothes costumes like in RE2. Just pick up some clothes from the mall and scan them in!

The man is like some kind of Majin Blue Eyes White Dragon. I'm absolutely fine with this. I need to see some more detailed pics when they're available.
That dialogue is so delicious.
As someone who likes Bleach fight scenes, this resonates very well with me. The teach really made this their passion project and it shows. The jump in quality from visuals, to gameplay, to story telling to character interactions all firmly place this entry in a different dimension in comparison to its predecdssors. That's how it should be though, each entry sets the bar for the series and genre going forward. I hope Bayonetta 3 and Lost Soul Aside are at least 3 quarters as good.
Nero's DT looks super cool.
(Only found this picture with the youtube name over it.. sadly)
That design came out real nice. Its just a slight redesign of his DT from 4 but it looks great still. It ranks right up there with Devil Kazuya and Devil Jin.
Speaking of costumes, I find it odd that this games' DLC color costumes are for show. I understand Dante, Nero and V as we play as them, but why non-playable characters such as Lady, Nico and Trish (unless there is playable character DLC somewhere down the year)?
Sorry if this has already been talked about (I'm scared of spoilers but need info) but has there been any more info on the co-op system? Is it only involuntary and campaign-based like Resident Evil 6 or will there be additional modes?
I burst out laughing like a madman at the literally five seconds they dedicate to DMC2. Absolutely priceless. :D
In hindsight this actually explains why Dante and Nero have much simpler character design in this game lol.
Seeing this vid we have confirmation that Mundus can return at any point again as he is just sealed... And both Vergil and Dante are in the demon world at the end.
So maybe they will meet again.
Ok we can bring up the question why he wasn't in DMC2 or even in this one... But still
Man, in hindsight people are gonna either flip when they realize that the final boss is basically Vergil from DmC 2.0 or deny deny deny that the way he was in that game inspired multiple elements of the fight
-cinematic camera angles
-DT clone
-some of his animations

Having watched the fight, yeah, it definitely does seem like they're very deliberately calling back to that part of DmC with the way the fight goes. It's a better version of that fight (obviously) but the similarities are impossible to miss.
Even the arena looks vaguely similar, color scheme-wise.
Now I wonder if the Dante version of the fight closely resembles the one in DMC3. Like if it too will have the cinematic camera angles and such.

Sure but the main difference between the DmC Vergil fight and this is that there are no game play interruptions, it's all 100% seamless.
I actually liked the Vergil boss fight in DmC, it's definitely the game's best fight but there were three main issues I had with it:
1) The constant cutscene interruptions which killed the flow/replayability of the fight.
2) The Pull ability made the fight easier than it should be, you could whiff punish Vergil from half a screen away. This does not seem to be the case in DMC5, Vergil can only be Snatched if he is stunned or reeling back.
3) 90% of the fight is very easy.. but the real challenge is in the last 10% where the difficulty cranks up insanely high. Compared to this DMC5 Vergil fight, which is easy in the first 25%, moderate until he is like around 1/3rd HP left and he becomes stronger, more aggressive. It's a more gradual spike in difficulty per phase.
The animations are generally taken from DMC4SE though... which were inspired from DmC Vergil (the playable version of him). The three main things that they have taken from DmC is the arena, Vergil having Doppelganger (tho it mechanically works differently here) and Nero cursing mid fight. Those cinematic exchanges are actually optional, they are just Buster animations.
I called it 2.0 for a reason.
I'm aware but I meant dynamic camera stuff like this, which appear to be triggered by a damage threshold:
I don't know if this is a Vergil boss fight thing or just a more general approach to cinematic stylings in combat or important battles.
No idea how much you guys have seen (Not gonna risk reading any of the thread xD), but I should have the game tomorrow (bout 11am gmt), ill post an unlisted stream link in quotes if you guys wanna see stuff.
His new outfit is pretty much the exact same color palette as DmC Vergil, too.I called it 2.0 for a reason.

You guys are giving too much credit to that turd of a game DmC. In turn they took most things from DMC3, the only cool thing they came up with was the doppelgänger.
Had go to youtube and watch that fight to actually remember I finished that game.

Deny camp all day long baby lol
The way it works is there are certain points where you can choose a character. The character that you don't choice becomes controlled by a someone jumping into your game/you joining there's It's completely involuntary unless you turn it off. It doesn't even really do anything for you other than add style points.
What's to flip out about? There's all of two seconds of slow-mo in DMC5's fight against the 54 seconds of cutscenes in DmC's version of the fight, and I don't think anyone objected to the idea of Vergil getting Doppleganger as a thing at the time. What people did object to was the unstated requirement that Dante's finishing blow HAD to be while he was in Devil Trigger, which was rightly removed from the Definitive Edition version of the fight.
DmC influence at all. I mean i'm not that type of person. But they're out there lol.
It's implied in Vergil's DMC4:SE campaign. Vergil travelled to Fortuna to learn something about Sparda, while there a lady in red took an interest in him. Clearly Vergil was thinking "She wears red, like Dante! I must impregnate her!"
"If my father did it, I should be able to do it to"
And out pops Nero.
People really out of their damn mind calling this supposed 40-ish old guy is "ugly" lol
I think I like Vergil more based on this gif than I did throughout DMC3. It's nice to see a look on his face that isn't generic brooding.
