It's most definitely the case, and they're probably taking all the time they can get to get it up and running without breaking the game.
tfw you wonder trade for a sobble and instead recieve a CryptoMon, an unreleased mon that cryptomines your Switch and bricks it.
Hey Kids! Wanna get your favorite [insert Pokemon here] but in SHINY?! Are you tired of being the only [man, woman, or child] on the playground without your [artificial rarity trophy]? Then all we need is your parent's credit card number and those WACKY 3 digits on the back!
Well, you're definitely free to have that take.
The one where Dante looks nothing like Dante and blatantly mocks the other games that people actually liked?
I mean we all just posted scalding (some were not so scalding) takes like a couple pages back I'm surprised that people got riled up at this one.
I wanna see the Mario family in the games.
DmC illicits a primal urge within the lizard brain.
Don'te/DINO (Dante In Name Only)
Kinda surprised given that it's been over a decade since DmC released and we got DMC 5 since then
And 5 took some elements from it.
Capcom don't got internet they was just a lil late on the edgy game phaseAnd 5 took some elements from it.
But you can't erase how ****ing weird the promotion for it was.
Very weirdly insistent he wasn't campy or a gay cowboy but instead in-line with Fight Club.
Then explain why the Mouse didn't quit the exclusive video game rights of The Simpsons from Electronic Arts like they with Star Wars?
Congrats. Have a good graduation, and make sure that is not a plank you walk on.

said. You’re entitled to have that take. They’re both just as silly as each other. But classic Dante’s sarcastic asshole persona that he never lets down just never sits right with me. Like, to me, it makes him off putting as a character.
I wish the two series could co-exist and we could get DmC 2. But Ninja Theory has been absorbed by Microsoft and everyone but me hates it so…
I guess they ran out of good starters but did they really need to go for the worst one right off the bat?
I have no idea what you're talking about

I guess they figured it’d be better to just get it out of the way
I am not reading all of that and it had nothing to do with my original pointEA secures exclusive Simpsons license
Electronic Arts to work closely with the show's writers, production company over course of long-term, multigame deal; next-gen systems targeted.
This is why the Company Mascots of 20th Century Fox aren't in crossover games. While the re-release of the Arcade Game and LEGO Dimensions were made years after this news report, pretty sure EA was behind some of the agreement deals.
Ehhhhh, sometimes having a super sarcastic, cocky main character is fun.As
I compare it to Peter Venkman from ghostbusters. Specifically how they wrote him in the ide comics. And because I think comparing ghostbusters and DMC is fitting. He’s always smiling, laughing in the face of impossible danger, and cracking jokes. But especially in the comics, if something that actually matters to him is on the line he can be incredibly serious and emotional. Like how he talks to Dana Barret after rescuing her from Tiamat. Barely a quip.
Classic Dante never lets his guard down with anyone. He meets and grows close to people, but (and I stress that I haven’t read any tie in novels or manga because you shouldn’t have to do that to make the story in the games interesting on its own) he never seems to care about any of them. To the point that him doing all this world saving stuff almost doesn’t make sense for him. Why is he doing it? Why does he care. Nobody is paying him. Is it because of his family and backstory? Ok. But he never seems to care about that either. The one time he shows any on screen emotion other than cocky sarcastic asshole is in DMC 1, and the delivery in that moment is so bad that it’s rightly been memed to death, and honestly is probably part of the reason Dante has never let the facade down in any game sense, even with people he should be really really close with like Trish.
Meanwhile, in DmC, I see the characters journey. He exhibits a variety of emotions. We establish his motivation and he goes through a definitive arc. I’m not saying the game doesn’t have problems. But I just like it better.
Also, and this is coming from the queen of overreactions, but people who say that it “insults the games people actually like” are overreacting to hell and back. It’s one like about the ****ing white hair and I guess some stuff the developers might have said before launch that’s been lost to the sands of time. The game plays so similarly to the classic ones, and it mostly does it’s own thing with that one crack at the beginning. Heck, when Dante goes into Devil Trigger, his most powerful state in the game, his hair turns white and his coat turns red. If anything that should mean more than one joke in the first chapter.
Plus Dante’s mother being an Angel and his father being a Demon is way cooler than him just being half demon half human and him having a different hair color than vergil in addition to a different preferred clothing color helps establish a thematic identity.
Not to mention this game lets me kill demonic billionaires and a stand in Fox News anchor. 10/10.
I guess. I guess personally I don’t really laugh at Dante the same way I do at like… Conker or Travis Touchdown or Deadpool.Ehhhhh, sometimes having a super sarcastic, cocky main character is fun.
Look at Leon from Resi4. Leon walks into a town of parasite infected humans and asks "Hey, where's everyone going? Bingo?" and other snarky quips.
****'s funny.
