Overbloated with way too many worlds (which is fine, to an extent) and effects (this is annoying). I understand this game is a collaborative effort, which is great, but I think that's what leads to this game's downfall-- it lacks a cohesive theme. It just has way too much going on compared to Yume Nikki.
I shelved it after getting 19 of the 36 (yes, that many) effects. Maybe I'll return to it someday, and hopefully, my feelings will change, but for now, I just didn't really enjoy this all that much.

surprised to like this more than the original yume nikki. this was my first "dip" into yume nikki fangames, and wow, this did not disappoint. so far I've only gotten the leave ending and wow I'm excited to see what the rust ending is. lol is a master at depicting the "gross" side of dreams (or, i guess here, nightmares).

overall a really fun game. i played this after i played dmc2 so as one could imagine it was like a breath of fresh air. nero is great, dante is as fun as ever and the story has some of the hypest shit ever (I'm looking at you, "Dante uses the Yamato and gets Darkslayer and its so fucking COOL" plot point)
But at the very last second. The final, FINAL piece of gameplay fumbles the bag so hard I was in tears. What the fuck man. It was so good. The fuck
Overall uhhhh I Want Kiss Vergil Still outta 5

i abandoned this at the final mission because i realized: regardless if i finished this game, i know i don't like it.
this game is so bad. i wish i didn't waste the 9$ dollars on this trash fire. like, the first game has issues but at least the first game was competently made and had a drive behind it. this just feels like a mindless cash grab. thank god itsuno was able to direct dmc3, because yeesh even with him stepping in this game is bad.
I'm glad this game is playable on modern platforms for achievable sakes at least.
tl;dr-- dmc2 goat *giggles

you ever get the final area of a game and realize without even finishing it yet you know its going to be a 10/10
yeah that's me with this game
It's simply so good. Combat is rewarding, and even against annoying ass bosses (like Nevans, for example) or enemies (The infernos and The Angels. THE ANGELS. GOD. FUCK THE ANGELS.) it balances out because it's simply just so damn satisfying to defeat them. I don't know if that's a good thing, but, man, I don't care. I think the best thing this game has is that it's pure fun. Dante's fun -- both with how he's written and portrayed; and to just play in general. The gameplay is fun. The game is just a good time.
Having only played the first one, this is such a step up in quality and atmosphere that it's almost shocking (and, there's also DMC2 but... lol). I love this game so much. It's simply so fucking good.
Also, something something, I want to fuck Vergil, something something.
Edit: Just finished it. I fucking love this game so much.
