Holy old game, combat is fun, but god damn starting a level over from the beginning just from dying is ridiculously backwards, I pray to god they remake this game, cause not having to restart from the start of a mission + no more finger breaking E & I + the game might actually look good it'd be an overall plus.
That being said, I played on easy, or easy auto same shit, still had a good time, wish I could have actually played on normal but restarting the level from the start is a ridiculous amount of tedium I don't want to invest myself into.
Give it a go, game was pretty fun, would recommend to others.

The game has aged but it's still pretty fun and 100% still playable by 2024 standards.
The story and characters are kinda whatever and take a backseat in favour of the gameplay which is pretty good. I felt like Dante doesn't have a ton of different options in terms of combat even after getting upgrades and more weapons however his base moveset feels satisfying enough to keep you entertained for the short runtime.
I had a couple problems specifically with the repeated boss encounters, problems with targeting, and lack of teaching the player game mechanics. You fight ever boss 3 times and it gets old real quick especially against the nightmare boss the can take forever if you're not careful. My targeting problems are also with the nightmare boss, you have to hit these things on the wall to make the boss vulnerable but most of the time Dante will turn around and try and hit the boss and it was really frustrating. When I started the game I felt like I was playing it wrong because the game doesn't explain what it wants from you during combat so you just gotta figure it out and they could turn new players away.
Overall I enjoyed the game despite those flaws most likely due to its short run time. I love short replayable games and Devil May Cry fits that bill perfectly.
