    Проходнячок с ОООЧЕНЬ неинтересной боевкой. По сути сидишь и надрачиваешь одну кнопку. Отвратительный таргет лок. Особенно сломаная боевка видна на V - непрямой контроль фамилиаров с невозможностью навестись на конкретного врага приводит к тому, что невозможно понять, что в следующий момент придет в голову контролируемому (типа!) тобой пету.

    Вульгарная девица со своей способностью появляться на автобусе где угодно обесценивает достижения игрока по продвижению по локации.
    Короче, для любителей слэшеров лучше еще раз Байонетту пройти, для остальных лучше пройти мимо.
    А да, графон ничего!
    П.С. DMC от Ninja Theory был лучше - и стильнее и боевка интереснее и за сюжетом следить было прикольно. Жаль не продолжили!

The available customization for the 3 characters you play as is absolutely outstanding, plus it’s always supported by the combat which is always a delight. The soundtrack is pretty intense and engaging, plus the bonuses like the gallery are always appreciated. The level design is good enough, I just wish If they added a bit more of new gameplay elements into the levels. Devil May Cry 5 is very enjoyable and exciting, with its amazing gameplay and good story the game truly shines when you perform these intense moves on the many enemies and bosses, just wish if the level design was slightly improved, none the less epic game.

    Combat was excellent and the story was good. Big fan of Dante’s new style changes though I wish V was a bit better

    Not quite long but very enjoyable! This is an old school hack n slash and also has got some extra contents. I recommend complete edition.

    Не буду скрывать, что самой любимой игрой серии для меня стала Devil May Cry 4. Была DmC 2013 года с хорошей боёвкой, не плохим сюжетом, но.... Было одно НО... Игра полностью распрощалась со своим готическим образом и мне это не очень понравилось. (1, 2 и 3 части вовремя не прошел из за отсутствия PlayStation 2, а проходить HD переиздание сейчас, ну это надо быть настоящим фанатом серии).Не буду скрывать, что самой любимой игрой серии для меня стала Devil May Cry 4. Была DmC 2013 года с хорошей боёвкой, не плохим сюжетом, но.... Было одно НО... Игра полностью распрощалась со своим готическим образом и мне это не очень понравилось. (1, 2 и 3 части вовремя не прошел из за отсутствия PlayStation 2, а проходить HD переиздание сейчас, ну это надо быть настоящим фанатом серии). Большая надежда была на Devil May Cry 5. Оправдалась ли она?
    На мой взгляд не совсем.
    Расскажу почему.
    Ну первым разочарованием стал персонаж Неро, ещё в демо версии. В четвертой части он внёс хорошее разнообразие в геймплей, его демоническая рука, делала его более лёгким, летучим, мобильным, что ли персонажем по сравнению с "танком" Данте. В пятой же части его превратили, реально, в инвалида с киберпротезами, которые и в сравнение не идут с супер рукой. На мой взгляд Неро оказался самым неповоротливым и неинтересным героем игры.
    Я вообще не очень люблю, когда приходится играть и прокачивать нескольких персонажей, к ним не успеваешь привыкнуть, а в этой игре их три. Помимо Неро и Данте это, некий В или Ви. Геймплей за Ви необычный, он сражается не совсем сам, а с помощью двух демонических животных, чо то типа "орла" и "тигра". Геймплей за него мне, в принципе, понравился и когда стоял выбор за кого играть: Неро или Ви, выбирал последнего.
    Данте же это классический "танк", прёт на пролом, слабо блокируется, использует всяческое демоническое оружие и даже демоническую форму. Короче молодец, претензий нет.
    Теперь, что касается врагов. На мой взгляд их маловато разновидностей, как и боссов. Эпичность боссов тоже сильно пострадала, в предыдущих играх было лучше (Особенно в четвертой части боссы были просто шикарные, хотя некоторые и проходились по два раза). Вообще игра, на мой взгляд коротковата.
    О сюжете могу сказать только то, что он тоже короткий. Вроде напихано много и перерождение Вергилия, и появление в следствие этого Ви, и близкое родство всех этих героев. Честно говоря, с первого прохождения, трудно понять, что вообще произошло. Так как всё это, практически ни как не поясняется, вот есть и всё, что делает сюжет ещё более куцым. Может это задел на продолжение, не знаю. К тому же игра переведена только субтитрами и на мой взгляд дублежа очень не хватает.
    Игра выглядит неплохо, именно неплохо на PS4, звёзд с неба не хватает, в отличии от той же Devil May Cry 4, которая на моём Xbox 360 выглядела просто фиерично!
    Ещё одно расстройство, готические пейзажи так и не вернули.
    Резюмирую. На мой взгляд неплохая игра - продолжение четвертой части. Геймплей разнообразен, картинка радует, сюжет вбивает в голову столько откровений, сколько не было в предыдущих пяти частях. Но в этом и недостаток. Вопросов больше чем ответов. Ждём Devil May Cry 6!

    I never played the game but I figured I'd give it the review it deserves since the graphics are so ugly
    This is a completely valid review I can leave despite me never playing the game because Metacritic doesn't have any way to verify if I have or not.

    I really have no words to describe how good and cool this game is, despite some mistakes in it (like irony and the lack of sense of some characters, acting like children sometimes) DMCV is a very frantic game, being the first DMC I play in my life, and certainly, it won't be the last, sustainable history, charismatic characters and conical villains. With rampant action.

    The king of hack and slash is back. It makes the combat slightly more accessible without removing depth. But Neros devil arms not being switchable goes against the design of devil may cry. It feels restrictive when DmC is supposed to be unrestricted to give players as many options to pull off combos. V is also a nice gimmick at first but he just becomes incredibly boring after awhile.

It feels restrictive when DmC is supposed to be unrestricted to give players as many options to pull off combos. V is also a nice gimmick at first but he just becomes incredibly boring after awhile. He just doesnt have the depth of Nero or Dante. Level design is also pretty boring. The way Nero gets his new arm and Devil Trigger was really lame and contrived. I know Dmc isnt focused on storytelling but having Nero get his arm back the way he did felt like a cop out so he could fight Vergil without it seeming like bull since without DT he'd be too weak. That being said DmcV has such incredible combat, especially with dante, that it makes up for its many shortcomings. Expand

    This game is AMAZING!
    The story is okay but you are not here for that, you are here for the combat and it's here baby!
    It's more fast paced, flashier, smoother with more complex and unique combat mechanics than all the previous DMC installments making it not only the best hack and slash game but also one of my ALL TIME FAVOURITES! I need to breathe...

    Awesome game.

    The gameplay is absolutely perfect. nothing more to say, it is pure FUN. The difficulty scaling is also very good, and the 2 hardest settings truly feel like an huge challenge, expecially if you are going for the platinum. -1 point only for the V sections. They are too spammy and making your pets die in one hit in HaH makes getting an S just boring and tedious, not hard.

    Dante who unlike past titles swaps styles using the keypad and allows you to have a massive style combo.
    Nero who is wielding his sword and has his Devil arms that give him different abilities

    Another success for Capcom. Devil May Cry has received a fresh injection of demon blood, and is as SSStylish as ever. A treat to look at, and a treat to play. [Issue#161, p.86]

    When one rival put on weight, grew a bushy beard and decided to raise his son in the Northern bewilderness, the other chose a pair of stylish high-heels a couple sizes too small and the third now only appears to smash some oversized ta-tas, Devil May Cry 5 is proving that it is too early to put hack'n slash games out of commission. It's a gorgeous, glorious game of great current interest. A crown jewel from Capcom's most skilled goldsmiths.

    Although the online functions could have been better, the unique and satisfying combat styles of Nero, Dante and V greatly contribute in evolving Devil May Cry 5 to the next level. While gaining a more photorealistic look thanks to Capcom’s RE engine, the stylish action we have come to love from the series is better than ever.
