What so good about it? It definitely is an awesome game, and for its time it was very very..hm...groundbreaking? But what fuels the fire of its fanboys right now is nothing more than nostalgia goggles..I mean, There is a huge group of people that grew up playing Playstation One and FFVII was a first FF to end up on a Sony console and given the fact that Jrpg's were huge back then and the, lightly speaking, good press it got, for a lot of people it probably holds good memories...But because of that part the fandom grew up into being obnoxious twats that hate everything that isn't their favourite game. They are the worst kind of the fandom, they are basically like Mikutards here ._.

And about DmC. Well, first off, DMC2 was the worst game in the series, so you should have played 1 or 3 to taste how good this series is. If you are into action games, that is.

And ugh. I wouldn't call it a good reboot, when basically all it takes from the original is names and game type. Good reboot is the new Tomb Raider, maybe, because it still has Lara Croft, who looks like Lara, sounds like Lara and the game feels like Tomb Raider. But here? You have totally different character, who looks different, is someone different and has different personality. The Dante everybody know and love was a badass who kills demons and doesn't afraid of anything. And he didn't need to try for people to like him.

Here, they took away the original Dante, replaced him with a stereotype of angsty looking american teenager and they tell you how much cool he is because he smokes and uses the "F" words and is so rebellious.

But the worst of all is how the developer (which isn't any amazing developer or anything) keeps telling you how their vision of Dante is so much better and how the old Dante suck. I think that was the last straw that made people genuinely put off.

I honestly wouldn't mind if it was a new game with completely different title, or at least if it was supposed to be based on Devil May Cry but wouldn't be part of the series, or reboot or whatever.

But I just can't accept how they butchered the entire series which already had a cult status within the fandom and started to claim with a straight face that what they made is an improvement.

Also, I played the demo and if I'm to be honest, even ignoring the protagonist and the story, slashing monster just isn't very fun and before I finished the demo I was all like "how much until the end ._.". Which isn't surprising since it's Ninja Theory...
