The perfect hack and slash! It not only features an amazing cast of characters but also doesn't take itself too seriously at all, which I feel most games do way too often. Most games would have a brooding protagonist based on what happened in Dante's life but the game realizes that everyone handles grief differently. This is truly a story about grief and loss but also about finding oneself and they do a good job with putting a veil of humor over it. Dante distracts himself with problems in the human world while Vergil does the opposite to avoid thinking about what they have both lost, only difference is that lady was there to show Dante the error in his ways and to not distract himself. This game made one of the greatest gaming franchises into what it is today. The only thing I gotta mark it down for is its lack of weapon switching but that's fixed in later versions. Overall, one of the best games of all time!!

An okay game at best the gameplay was fun but as a sequel, it fails to deliver constantly the characters are a little more bearable than Xenoblade 2 but with a lacking villain, a forced romantic storyline, corny dialog, and at the end a plot that makes the story useless. The only unique characters in this I feel were Riku, Gondor, and Eunie. Joran was cool and would have made for a better villain. The game feels rushed and if DLC fixes the weak story then that's fine but im tired of games relying on DLC to fix weak games. The most notable thing about this game is a 2 sec shot of a picture from Xenoblade 2. This game is the very definition of mid. could have died without playing this game and I think I would have been a happier individual. TLDR: Weak characters, weak story, weak connections, fun gameplay.
