story and characters are bland but the combat is sooooo gooodddd

This game has immense swag. Fantastic cutscene design and interesting weapons make this a really fun game, on top of the reliable DMC gameplay. There are certainly some missteps - the in-game camera is actually fairly difficult to control sometimes, and the narrative itself isn't that amazing. However, the level design in this game is really, really fun, and the collectables were great. I'm half convinced to achievement hunt in this game but I might put this one down to go play DMC4 next

The gameplay itself is okay, its just the story is laughably bad without being at all aware of it. People mostly hated it because of that, and how it dared to claim to be DMC's replacement after a long time of waiting for a proper sequel. If it wasn't tied to the DMC name for no reason, it would've been seen as mid.

Jogo muito bom, mas infelizmente muito injustiçado

This is the only dmc game i have played i know the other ones better but i really enjoyed it still listening the never surrender song :D

It's weird that people are calling it the "Black sheep of the franchise", which makes it seem like this is even remotely comparable to the previous games or the entire series as a whole.

this game has hatred not only for the Devil May Cry series, but to action games entirely, it loathes the very idea of an action game, choosing the most boring, sauceless and soulless combat i have ever interacted with.

I don't know who to blame honestly:
The capcom execs who believed this will somehow generate more fans in the west
or Ninja Theory for their horrible design choices.

This game isn't underrated or a hidden gem, it's plain and simple bad.

But if anything its a nice time capsule of 2010-2015 edge.
