    It's an okay action game, but the characters are not cool at all; in fact, they seem rather comical.

    I am impressed by the story it has a lot of elements from the old games they bring fourth and built on it doesn't feel like it's just using the old mechanics to make something the same it feels like a springboard to something new and I really liked it and the game make me feel a lot about the characters in The later half.

    The game looks beautiful, but sadly they go into a giant tree in the later half of the game and the colors gets a bit borrowing and especially Dante's jackets. It is not a lot red. It's more like a really dark red which is just sad.

    2. Fights feel non responsive. Bad camera and key binds to position of character make difficulties to do desired hits and combos. Most combos are just useless because of because of one ultimate attack. this is especially acutely felt when you playing for V. All his gameplay is narrowed down to endlessly push two buttons; very boring. There are hardly visible indicators of enemies' attacks, so after GoW it feels like a mess.
    3. Music is great! All that rock sets the mood to beat some demons.
    4. Cinematics are astonishing. Full of humor and anime/epic moments. Good director's work! Bad thing is you have to grind through repetitive and not diverse fights to see another video. Couldn't last more than 13 chapter.

    DMC 5 is pure action. Although story has some revealing moment it is rather trivial story and nothing to think twice about. Characters are likable and overall are great, game didnt provide much space to get "intimate" feeling to them, so what happens to them is not much emotional, its rather cinema pop corn experience.

Nevertheless I am pretty sure fot those, who played another DMC games will have different feelings and enjoyment.

    Game is basically about searching and using combination of fighting techniques. If combos are successfully delivered, you are rewarded with more bonus points and those points u spent later to unlock more fighting techniques. And thats whole point of game, searching for best combo.

    Its console type of game and it is fast, and super fan. I was lacking some kind of atmosphere, but its more in fun and entertainment field than immersive type of game.

    In the beginning its rather slower if you as me never played game like that so its 8/10, but later game is 9/10. If you know you like those type of games, you can go even for 10, as it has replay value and game is counting on rising difficulty for next playthrough.

    Its really good game and if you never played game like, give a try, its really good.

    Played on 110" projector screen. Surround 5.1

I haven't played previous titles. I always knew of the series but it never caught my attention before as it was a game marketed for east market with a majority of fans coming from that region. I am amazed by this game even though I haven't been with the series for very long. That being said to understand a lot of things happening within the story it is better to know what happend in previous parts as the story of 5 builds of off them directly. That however didn't deminish my enjoyment of the gameplay which is absolutely fantastic. Different characters have extremly unique kits which completely change how you play. They are however very hard to master but if you do manage that you'll be rewarded with insanely satisfying combat that. The game is best described as easy to learn, hard to master and I think it makes it really good for both casual players who can just enjoy the simple combos and the story and people who want to put the time in and really learn how to play the game at it's highest level of skill. The writing is very cartoonish. All characters act very cheesy and while it may be strange to some in my opinion it very much fits the game and sidetracks the story which is very basic. Because the focus is on characters and their interactions the game has many memorable moments and honestly this game really made me laugh in certain moments. It is simply genius and I can't stand how great DMC5 in all of it's aspects. I think the game is awesome and definitely worth a try at least but it is a game made for a specific audience therefore I can totally see why someone wouldn't like it as much as I did. It's not for everyone but for the people which it works it is a great game worth playing through it at least once. Expand

Other than this installment, I've only played the first game in the series. As such, the story was very confusing. Still, near the end, when a certain character is reintroduced, the story won me over and its conclusion actually moved me. Early on, the scenes are so chaotic and disorienting, that I found them hard to sit through, but once Dante is involved, the story becomes somewhat more investing. He's the cocky bastard I'm familiar with and it's a breath of fresh air when his glorious smugness hits the screen. Nero was fine, but V was cringey. I kinda get that's the point, but even playing as V was tedious. The biggest shortcoming of its narrative structure, which leaps forward and backward in time, is that it was hard to judge how far into the game I actually was. There were many moments earlier in the game where I thought it was already nearing its end and, at the literal end of the game, I thought there was still a final act waiting. All the pieces for an outrageous climax were set, but then the credits rolled. It's a surprisingly wholesome ending, but it feels somewhat incomplete.

    As far as gameplay is concerned, I think it's good but there are lots of shortcomings that I have gripes with. Firstly, the good; the character variety is cool— it keeps the combat from becoming too repetitive. I hated playing as V, but I appreciate the effort that went into creating and balancing him. Regardless, whenever there was the option I'd always choose Dante, then Nero if Dante wasn't available. My biggest issue was with dodging. It's really annoying that you have to hold RB/R1 and then press A/X to dodge. Even when you think you're doing it, sometimes your character will end up jumping instead because you're not moving the toggle-stick in the correct direction. Another reason I preferred playing as Dante is because one of his Styles allows you to dash around freely with the push of a single button, instead of multiple.

    The next biggest shortcoming was the abundance of cutscenes interrupting the flow of gameplay. Then there are also the frequent load screens, but the game's beautiful graphics are worth it. The only time the load screens were cumbersome was whenever I wanted to go to the Customization Shop. I get the enticement of seeing Nico lounging about, but I honestly would have preferred a simple menu screen so I could get back to the game faster.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. In many ways this game perfects what is great about DMC but it also takes a few steps back in some areas.

    The graphics has obviously received a technical boost since DMC4. The art style has changed noticeably as well. While I think I prefer the more stylized look of earlier games, the more realistic look did not bother me.

    This time around Dante & Nero has a huge arsenal of fun moves to explore. The new arm system adds a whole new dimension to Nero whom I found a tad lacking in the previous instalment, then of course the big surprise at the end further expands his capabilities.

    Dante as usual have several styles, devil arms and guns at his disposal making for a seemingly endless possibilities of combinations.

    V on the other hand contrasts the other two with a playstyle that conflicts with what makes DMC a fun brawler. Sadly for me, it was always a downer when a mission was "wasted" on him.

    The environments started out very detailed and immersive while running around the city. As the game progressed and you ventured through ruins and the tree it became visibly less polished and more repetitive. I found the areas from earlier installments much more memorable and iconic compared to the new ones.

    The bosses are ranging from okay to good. The most fun ones are were you are constantly engaged in fast close combat(ex: Cavaliere Angelo) while others have a repetitive gimmick to them(ex: Gilgamesh). We've yet seen a really solid boss fight since Credo(DMC4).

    Lastly, I am a bit disappointed with Vergil taking the big baddie throne once more. We already did that and we did it better in DMC3.

    Despite its shortcoming it's a really fun game, especially when you are battling(or styling on) hordes of demons!

    This is one of the best Devil may cry games, comparable only with Devil may cry 3. It features 3 characters wich you can use to play and an additional 5$ DLC if you want to play as Vergil. Every character is really enjoyable and fun. The story is really great. The worst thing about this game is one of the characters, V which isn't really fun to play in my opinion.

    The game got rid of almost all of its annoying things that the previous games had such as bad camera and back tracking.
    The graphics are stunning, some cutscenes sometimes even look like CGI and the facial animation is something... Although I liked the reworked combat system of the DMC reboot, the developers managed to make the old combat system better

    All the playable characters were super fun and had unique playstyles. V is the only new playable character and his playstyle is very different from anything we have seen in the series. Surprisingly, I had a ton of fun playing him although I initially expected him to be boring due to his no hands-on fighting style.

    DMC 4 SE is more well paced, has more level variety, you don't fight the same boss 4 times, the dante fight is actually intense instead of each taking turns doing anime transformations into devilman crybaby, the foundations for something better is there, combos are more fluid and the new mechanics could add some very cool stuff but no, the game makes swordmaster useless with the rebellion and after you see under the flashy and pretty colors there is a putrid garbage that reeks of DMC 2, stupid AI that feels like they just move at your general direction and do random moves, sometimes struggling to hit you while you're stationary, fluid combos that serve no purpose since enemies can be downed by whatever, barely any challenge after you slightly upgrade and even if you die, the game gives you free gold orbs, checkpoints and you can buy a revive on the spot.

    And **** me for not liking this game amirite? i'm just a grumpy old timer that can't enjoy anything past the ps2, now you can go back to rating games due to public opinion, the company behing it and flashyness, go find some excuse to not refund cyberpunk 2077 or memes to hate on EA even though their latest games were great, when you're disappointed because DMC 6 continued the downgrade that was DMC 5 i'll be here to say "i told you so" just so i'll be ignored again.

Gorgeous graphics, exciting OST, fluid combat mechanics and kind of unlimited(?) combo potentials. Have always been a fan of the DMC series. Although I am not very skillful, I always enjoy spending time hack and slash my way to infinite devil trigger mode, and for all achievements in later games in the series. The reason I marked it down by 1 is because I am a little bit unsatisfied with the weapons/combat, characters and story. Despite all the complains in the below, I am still gonna go for DMC6 in the future lolololol. Expand

    Enemy Design is okay but the level design and layout is sooooo bad. Old DMC games had a strip clubs, liberias, cities, castles etc.
    DMC 5 has a grey boring city and then organic grey stuff. Level layout is always room with enemys, then walk 100 meters, room with enemy and in the end you get a phone box and then its boss

    Character Design looks also weird in my opinion, DMC has more of an anime look from DMC 1-4, now he is a 45 year old realistic man.
    Combat is great but also pretty much the same as in DMC4 and unlocking Air Hike and enemy step for the 100 time is kinda boring.
    Kinda sad, everyone was hyping the game up, but it's just kinda bland and boring.

So what about story telling? it is well created as well, as tell before while you play the game you have ability to play by different characters with their own play style and own vision of story. you will enter different locations which somehow intertwined with each other. and all of this accompanied by cool music. so do i recommend this game ? yeah exactly especially if you slasher lover as me you will enjoyed as well.

Öncelikle onlarca silah türü ve bunlarla yapabildiğiniz onlarca combo var. Bense bunların hiçbirini aklımda tutamadığım ve efektif kullanmayı beceremediğim için oyun boyunca belli silahlarla ve belli bir kaç combo ile idare etmek zorunda kaldım. Buna rağmen combat'ın akıcılığı ve görsel estetiği nedeniyle oldukça keyif aldım. Fakat dediğim combo meselesi yüzünden "oyunun hakkını veremiyorum" hissi ile cebelleşmek zorunda kaldım hep.

    Bunun dışında hikayesi fena değildi ama coşulacak kadar iyi de değildi. Boss çeşitliliği ve bunların görsel tasarımı çok iyiydi. Açık dünya ve ot çöp toplama olmadan dümdüz 10-15 saat oynama süresi ile yoğun bir deneyim sunuyor. Her kapı açılışında araya giren cutscene'ler nedeniyle oyundan koptuğumu söyleyebilirim.

    Gráficamente es espectacular, sus animaciones son bestiales y el modelaje de los personajes (sobre todo sus caras, -joder sus putas caras son casi reales-) es maravilloso. Jugablemente también es muy bueno, se siente con una gran variedad de ataques a la hora de realizar combos, capcidad para mejorar equipamiento, diversidad de personajes, aprender habilidades nuevas.... hasta que aparece V. La jugabilidad de V me parece una basura.
    Jugué a este juego después de haber disfrutado de Astral Chain, y cuando me tocaba una fase donde tenía que manejas a V, solo deseaba apagar el PC y encender la switch para volver a Astral Chain. Por suerte las fases donde controlas a V no son demasiadas y las fases con Nero o Dante lo compensan.

    La historia es tan floja que lo único disfrutable de sus escenas es disfrutar de su espectacularidad gráfica.

    Resumen: excelente apartado técnico y jugabilidad, mediocre control de V e historia floja.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I'm giving it a mixed score only because of the gameplay i mean it's the best the series ever got i think, but it gets super inconsistence because of the three playable characters, i don't have a problem with having 3 characters but the game doesn't give you enough time to practice them whithin the story mode and 20 missions is REALLY SHORT for having three characters, then there's the story, i think it's one of the worst aspects of the game, i mean dmc was never know for it's top story telling but come on they didn't even try with this one, and it seems the average dmc fan doesn't care as long as it's fun and ridiculous and has cool gameplay, i mean why not have both awesome gameplay and awesome story like in dmc3? The characters are also horrendous, the worst roast of characters i ever seen in a dmc game, there's basically not charm in any of these characters, Dante changed so much since dmc1 'cause Hideaki Itsuno doesn't understand him, Nero it's an angry teen with no motivation apart from Dante calling him "deadweight", compare that to dmc3 where Dante starts as an angry teenager but develops emotion for humans (Lady) and that becomes his motivation to stop Vergil, or hell even dmc1, then there's Nico, absolutely no charm i hate her, we had characters like Lady, f*cking Trish and even Lucia was cool too, but Nico is annoying and doesn't add anything new to the series, and also the way they portrayed the female characters to look useless and slutty was disgusting and horrible because they don't do anything and they turned them into damsels in distress. I hope original series creator Hideki Kamiya comes back to do another dmc game because i don't like the way Itsuno is handling the series, he tries to make it appeal to the western audience and that's the problem with japanese developers, instead of making an awesome game they care to please the western fans so much, but well it's a fun game but the worst dmc game i ever played sadly, because i really wanted to enjoy this game i really did! But the poor story, horrible characters, disgusting music, and ugly art direction really ruined the game, if you compare all that to previous dmc games it's really bad, but again the gameplay makes up for it.

DMC5 is such an amazing game with such a great story, beautiful graphics, awesome characters and fun gameplay. I held off so long only because I grew off of hack and slash type games and I came back with a bang and this was it. DMC reboot was a disgrace. This on the other hand? Man you have to pick it up whenever you get the chance. It's easily worth your money.

    Why did I give it a 9 out of 10 though?

    I can't say the last time I had this much fun with an action game. The visuals are top notch, and on a level you'd expect from a fast-paced hack & slash games. Characters in the main focus are simply fun and interesting, although the side characters got really small amounts of "screen time". Nonetheless the playable characters are tons of fun to play and upgrade.

    Upgrade system is a bit wonky and broad, which is a caliber you'd expect from a DMC game. Controls do feel a bit overcrowded at times, but are trumped by a sheer pleasure from landing a blow from any of offered abilities from your arsenal.

    Story itself is sub-par when compared to the rest of the game, but still good and interesting even though the ending didn't rise up to the expectations. But I do get they have to plan these things out openly considering it's a strong franchise with a dedicated fan-base.

    - levels design is poor and repetitive, like they are done by novice map maker, like really low budget game,
    - constantly switching characters with different steering scheme is really bad idea, it disconnected me from the game, its annoying to say the least
    - I really enjoyed reboot DMC few years ago, but many people complained about design of the main character, Its out of my capability of understanding how could they accept character such as V, who has no fighting system apart from bashing 2 of his demons buttons at once all the time and getting S for this. He is enigmatic the same way he is boring and week and feels out of place, the same place where master Dante destroyed anything in his path
    - good fighting system may sometimes cover the fact that the game is completely empty, few secret missions and that is it
    - structure of the game, splitting the game into missions is thing of the past, please move already to present times, watch Remedy's Control and learn how it should look in 21st century
    - the devil hunter difficulty is really really low, too low, and after what I saw in this game, I will not play it again at a higher difficulty, it throws me away so bad,
    - the story is poor excuse for this game to exist, its boring, naive, predictable, with some really soap operas plot twists, total cringe
    - once again steering - WHO decided that Nero should have his hook and his booster arm under one button? its another example of the mess this game is

    On the bright side, Im done with this game, will never get back to it. This series just became parody of itself.

    I played this at my friend's, it was okay, but I felt like it was geared towards consumables in order to get through the levels. Then I looked at the store page and saw the red orbs microtransactions. It makes me feel sick to see that and I will not buy a game that does this or support it in any other way. This kind of exploitation is disgusting and capcom should be ashamed.

    Graphics are fantastic, gameplay is solid and entertaining, unleashing crazy combos is great to watch. Story is pretty decent too. Dante, Nero and V were all fairly interesting characters, and the ending was great imo. Wish the story was a bit longer and then this would have easily gotten a 10/10 (my only gripe with RE2 as well).

    The best thing we could have got as a sequel to dmc 4. Combat is so amazing here and the story is amazing little bit cringy sometimes but its all you would expect from devil may cry, its edgy, over the top and it looks amazing as well.

    Devil May Cry 5, while seemingly shallow on the surface, conceals its greatest features and true experience for only the dedicated to discover. The satisfaction of finally overcoming a block in the game that held you back for so long is where the real experience lies, and the game demands that you not be weak of heart to reach it. Put in the time and effort that the developers expect of their fans and you’ll truly be able to reap the rewards and see DMC5 for what it is; a truly off the wall, batshit insane romp through the best the genre has to offer.

    The culmination of the franchise and so much more. Capcom is still putting up the pressure one notch above, with new mechanics, a renewed gameplay, and a replayability that will make you start the game a second time without losing your smile. The story has matured and a good balance has been found with its three destinies that intersect over the course of the missions, until its apocalyptic final. Only big downside in a game that requires precision in its highest difficulty levels: the camera problems and the targeting system.

    Bland location design aside, Devil May Cry 5 is excellent in all other aspects. Deep combat system, charismatic characters, nice graphics, vibrant soundtrack — this is one hell of a crazy-ass meaty slasher.
