Nephilim difficulty 5:57:23
Son of sparda difficulty 4:48:06 (my playtime)

I have played all of the mainline games and
Idc what anybody thinks but this is a great dmc game. Idk how people could hate it. It has a great story for both vergil and Dante their designs are really good too. And then the mundus design was good too for it's game.

It's combat was perfect I don't see much of a problem except for needing to use a certain weapon for a certain enemy type but yeah pulling off combos are pretty satisfying.

It's soundtrack just screams what it's about and does not fail or disappoint.

It's level design as well was great. (my favorite was Liliths club) And then the bosses are fun and well made personally. And if you liked the game on normal (devil hunter) or hard (nephilim) you can go to son of sparda, it gives enemies and bosses new attacks and of course makes it even harder (which im not sure if other dmc games do) and makes it feel slightly fresh I'm not sure what rewards you get for all modes but it if you wanna do it go ahead.

I'd rate this a 10/10 but I put it down by one cuz of public opinion. I recommend anybody to play this game, there is realistically NOTHING horrible about it.

I have played this game 3 times now and this is my first time FINALLY beating it (I may have a skill issue) the first time I just played casually without thinking much of anything and then the 2nd time I tried doing more than what I did.

And now this last playthrough I put more time into grinding and I beat the reaper once in flu season that helped a bit, but this game was really great personally even tho it took me since 2021 for me to beat. I can really feel the emotions through the music and voice acting and I feel very connected to these characters that at times you just might get some tears, again the soundtrack is sooo well done and it stands out very perfectly.

The theme/story of freedom in this game is well done as well.

I possibly don't know what would be wrong with this game but it definitely does everything right in all areas. If you like turn based games I'm sure you'd love this.

Very good game, I think people need to calm down on the gameplay change. I personally think that it needed it. I know they somewhat changed it in Yakuza 6 but it still feels like a copy and paste.

This gameplay kinda saved it for me and I love ichibans perspective on enemies and combat (Luffy inspired character btw, love that too)

The story and bosses were fun and the stuff on the side of course, they should always have that 6+ hour side story they also have in Yakuza 0,its incredibly fun.

I don't got anything else to say really but if you like the yakuza series you might or might not like this game. (Kinda sucks you gotta pay for karaoke songs)
