Holy shit I wasn't expecting this at all and I am pumped. A numbered title. A sequel to DMC4 rather than a follow on from dmc. Nero.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

A bit of mix feelings with the new character designs but I'll get used to.

3 playable characters at launch? Neat, I hope they designed levels & enemies to flexible with all 3 characters potential.

I hope to Etro that Dante is actually mature in this one.

I have no idea who these people are or what's going on but shit that looks cool. I've never played a DMC game before.

i am not 100% on board yet and nero looks like a cross between dmc4 nero and DmC donte

but i am liking that song

also how all the enemies seem to be covered with eyes, that's pretty cool

Interesting styling. So happy to see proper Dante though. He's looking a little more DMC2 ish? Do we know if this is before or after 2?

From listening to people who seem to know what they're talking about, I think it's supposed to be after DMC2, because in the final shot Dante is coming back from hell on the bike that he took into hell in DMC2. Also, there're some brief shots where it looks pretty definitive that Virgil is the one who sliced off and took Nero's arm, thus necessitating its robotic replacement. Lastly, the new girl is the shopkeeper from the previous game(s).

Again, this is all from me listening to people talk about it, because I have also never played a DMC game ever.

that song has such a tacky mid-2000s numetal vibe and fuck am I ever feeling it

i haven't properly played a DMC game since the first one, which I was bad at. The teenaged mall goth in me always liked the aesthetic tho, and I kept up with the story/lore through lets plays and such. I might go back and play 4 to hype myself for this new one.

If one was interested in doing so, what's the best way to go about it? Hunt down the original versions, emulate them, HD Collection, etc. etc. etc.

Does it make sense to play them in release order? Is there a reason to skip some of them? Should I still be aware of things / attempt to consume the game's content?

The series doesn't have a complex story and the story of each game is overall light in content.

Devil May Cry 2 is a quite underdeveloped game, specially on its bread and butter, the combat system. Hence why many fans say that you should ignore it, if you are interested in story just read a summary.
