    It doesn't have the depth the previous ones had and personally, I found the story pretty lame. But in this genre the important thing is the gameplay, and I had a ton of fun playing it. That being said, the level design gets damn annoying the third time you play it.

    Un juego bueno y divertido, lo mejor del mismo es su gameplay bastante divertido y facil de entender, en cuanto a la historia no es ni muy buena ni muy mala pero cumple a destacar igual los graficos que para ese tiempo tampoco eran una locura (a mi parecer) pero eran bastantes buenos, aunque tiene varios fallitos y en pc al menos en mi caso tuve muchos problemas como bugs y bajones de fps

    7 is a good score for this game.
    Story is definitely trash, characters are pretty uncosistent, but the pacing is pretty well.
    There are some very interesting and more fun levels than any other devil may cry games, but this one takes a bad turn in that towards the end: THE FINAL TWO BOSSES ARE REALLY **** EASY. Combat is much more combo-ish and fast paced but is less tactical, but its    7 is a good score for this game.

    The soundtrack however is one of the best. Noisia are probaby one of the best producers ever and they killed it. The quaiity of the hunter's theme and lilith club are top notch, and wont age    … Expand

    First of all, DmC looks rather great for an Unreal Engine 3 title, featuring lots of colorful, detailed, well crafted environments and levels. Character design was done well too. Combat felt satisfying, with lots of combos to unlock and learn. There's also light platforming involved. Some of the boss fights were nice, while some were either irritating or too easy even for me. I wasnt the biggest fan of Dante himself though, he was way too cocky and juvenile even by my standards to the point where his character can come off as cheap. Then again i'm not familiar with the classic Dante, so i cant be the supreme judge here. Story was alright for what it tried to do, the whole trapped in the limbo concept and brain washing of masses themes were enticing. But good lord the writing of the dialogue in this game can become laughlably bad to the point where it significantly and negatively impacts the overall enjoyment and quality of the DmC experience.

    I've noticed that this game has gotten quite a bit of hate from fans of the classic Devil May Cry games, so i'm not sure if they would enjoy this title, but for those who havent played older games like me, maybe give it a try, while the writing may make you cringe and wonder how much lower the barrier for AAA game writing can be set, the gameplay is still rather solid, making up for a pretty decent hack & slasher.    … Expand

    the story isn't quite that deep. Second, unlike previous DmC games, this fifth installments is rather easy and it has no challenge. They should at the very least add more puzzles to the game.

The story is basically nonexistent which, to be fair, isn't what most people play these types of games. Most enemies are boring in design. Don't get me started on the bosses and color coated enemies. Now while there are many issues with this game, there are also pros. The combat flows really nicely and the game's style is unique. The music is fantastic and fits the game well. The level design is also astounding. I am a massive fan of the original games, and I think this game sometimes catches too much hate.

    The story is easy to follow by those who have not played the others Devil May Cry's because it is a retelling of the original story.

    As a "Hack & Slash" game is a pretty decent one, fluid, fast and action-packed. I only came across small moments in which the camera enters strange angles, but nothing major.
    Visually is good, the graphics are nice (for the 2013 standards) and the soundtrack is very awesome, it fits like a glove into the rampant killing of demons ahead of us and it was one of the main reasons why I had so much fun.

    Overall is an excellent game that I recommend play with a controller, but even if not, it is quite easy to play with keyboard and mouse.    … Expand

    DmC 1 was fun because it was unique and one of a kind when it came out. Story and characters were super cheesy from the beginning. All the sequels afterward although bringing some little new additions to the series, would differ insubstantially in the overall picture, sometimes even managed to downgrade the experience.

All the sequels afterward although bringing some little new additions to the series, would differ insubstantially in the overall picture, sometimes even managed to downgrade the experience. DmC 3 offered some replayability value and some puzzle, but in the end... it was just more of the same repetitive button mashing with little content apart of the story. If you want a fun action, Good vs Evil game, do yourself a favor and play one of the Castlevania games. DmC might appeal to people that do look for a cheap thrill in gaming, but to me it's just a repetitive, linear, heavily scripted, button masher, with a cheesy... kind of kitschy, and predictable story. As if this wasn't enough it tries to add replayability value where there is none, by scoring your missions, which you can replay to obtain a better score. Scoring is based on combo system, completion time and avoiding damage (if I remembered right). The best part of the whole series are the overall graphics and animation, with surreal sceneries, still meshes are quite simple at times and textures are not mindblowing either, but overall it plays out as and interesting graphical experience. As well monsters aren't very unique and quite often "they don't look like anything to me"WSref. Even thou well-animated combat is incredibly repetitive and gets old real quick, is suffers from lacks overall customization and deeper RPG elements. DmC4 at the top of that is really slow. Which brings me to a conclusion that this game should be remade into a 3D animated movie. Finally, it tries to make itself more serious by adding a vile language, this makes it an ultimately silly choice, as it makes itself unavailable to the younger audience, to which the cheesy overall experience would be much more appealing, as a child's imagination tends to overlook the overall obvious flaws. Instead, developers choose to insult, the grown-up audience, especially the older generation of gamers that look for some deeper, unique, quality experience. Just like most mediocre movies these days, I rate it 5/10 as that's all it is... another mediocre game.… Expand

    There are a lot of different types of enemies, that you have to fight in different ways, but it still can get a bit repetitive....

When one uses the name of a popular franchise, one should also respect it. This game fails to deliver a Devil may cry experience to offer a more casual friendly Dmc while neglecting the fans that got it's back in the first place. So here is to summarize:

    Good:
    *Newbie Friendly. If you're new to this genre, don't worry, this game offers so little resistence you will find yourself making your way to the end of it, one way or another. You'll die, of course, but it's no Dark Souls or Dmc4.
    * Great Level Design. When you pass on the other world you'll know about what I'm talking about!
    * Great Story. Another good point it's the whole issue of how gullible people can be and how easy it's for the media to control us. Check it out!
    * Great graphics. Up to date and very nice to watch
    * Semi- free exploration. You will feel less claustrophobic than in most old school Dmc games.

    Bad:
    * Underdeveloped Dmc Battle System. They took Dmc4's 4 core system and reduce it's potential to the minimum. No jump cancel, no fighting styles, no versatilty... nothing. Just visuals. In casuals slang would be "so fly!", but in normal to hardcore gamer slang it's more like "...bland... I'd rather go GOW if I wanted simple and brutal".
    * Easy! even on harder difficulties. With the bland battle sys came the need for small challenges, compensated with oversized giants to feel some sort of epicness in every win. Here you have big pushovers who are so dumb and easy to kill you practically win by just smashing the crap out of your controller. It's not only that GOW does it better, it's that for a Dmc CLAIMING to be part of the franchise it's just borderline mediocre.
    *Unlikeable characters. From the douche Dante, to the boring Kat, to the annoying Phineas, to the wimp/cowardice Vergil... none of them are the shadow of the stool any of the characters in the old series could poop. Fact.

    So as you see, it's not that the game is bad. By itself it's easily a 7/10... the point is that as Devil may cry game DmC fails misserably to deliver the experience promised by a game that uses the shadow of a big franchise to fart in the mouth of all the fans that support that franchise in the first place.    … Expand
