DmC: Devil May Cry is the fifth game in the hack-and-slash third-person action series and the first not largely developed by Capcom. This title is a reimagining of the series, with the same protagonist Dante, but set in an alternate universe. The Dante in this game is very different from before, doing away with the trademark white hair and altering the main character as well as the game's tone with a much more Western influence. The gameplay is still largely identical as Dante engages many opponents with a fast fighting style, stringing together combos and hits in quick succession. Read less

Decent game, nothing more, its biggest flaw is having Devil May Cry in its name. As a fan of the original franchise, I'm glad DmC didn't continue.

Decent game, nothing more, its biggest flaw is having Devil May Cry in its name. As a fan of the original franchise, I'm glad DmC didn't continue.

Capcom made a stupid decision to reboot a franchise that no one asked for. DMC 4 had sold a lot at the time, they just needed use the criticism to make a better continuation and earn more money and audience with it, but they decided to reboot a franchise that was on top in a risky decision to gain more audience, without fan support of the original base game since they erased everything the old fans loved, the game was decent but not good enough to gather a sizable new fan base that outnumbered the old one, which resulted in this whole flop.

It was fun to play but nothing that really stuck with me.

It's ok. It's not as bad as the internet would have you believe. It is very flawed, certainly, but not unplayable. I will say this. The more I played it the less I liked it. The small annoyances that were berable at first became more and more common the higher in difficulty you went and the more unbearable the experience …

It's ok. It's not as bad as the internet would have you believe. It is very flawed, certainly, but not unplayable. I will say this. The more I played it the less I liked it. The small annoyances that were berable at first became more and more common the higher in difficulty you went and the more unbearable the experience became. Good for occasional plays but not for long, consistent, playthroughs. If you have the choice stick with the PS4/XB1 versions. The improvements make it a far less deteriorating experience.

Finally giving this a shot because I happen to have it on Steam and I've caught the character-action bug again.

I also know there's a definitive edition out there that I might play sometime, but it's not on PC.

This is possibly the worst first impression/first hour of a game I've ever experienced. Here were my thoughts as I played the first level:

  • The intro, even for the time it came out, is horrible-looking
  • The song that plays grates on my ears
  • 3 long loading screens before any gameplay happens... really?
  • The humor is over-the-top to the point of …

This is possibly the worst first impression/first hour of a game I've ever experienced. Here were my thoughts as I played the first level:

  • The intro, even for the time it came out, is horrible-looking
  • The song that plays grates on my ears
  • 3 long loading screens before any gameplay happens... really?
  • The humor is over-the-top to the point of being annoying
  • The framerate was chugging even in cutscenes
  • Frequent audio-glitches (mainly cutting out for a second) in gameplay and cutscenes.

Can someone tell me if this is at all worth continuing? Because after this first mission I felt no need to continue.

I don't know why this game is so hated, tbh it is better than dmc 2 at the very least, I find this one as good as the 4th in the series

So...this is fun. It has been sitting on my PS3 for ages and I paid it little mind. I heard a track by Noisia on Spotify that is apparently from DmC. It was a pretty decent smash some baddies type song so I decided, why not give it a go. So far I am enjoying myself.

Excelente diseño, malos bosses y una curva de dificultad que oscila entre un GoW y un Bayonetta.

Quit playing it midway through the campaign. It's OK. I'm not sold on the new take of Dante. The action gets old quick. Maybe I'll come back around to it but I had a hard time getting into it.

Fun, satisfying combat and completely insane level and art design.
