i played this game at least 5 times in these 2 years and thats because for one reason or the other between changing pc deleting my saves as a mistake or like corrupting everything or just forgetting to complete the game and putting it in the trash bin it's just my relationship with this game is so fucked up I swear to fucking god

im not gonna get into the aged or not aged debate because its a fine game and can be playable nowadays the end

this is a series so hyped that I was kind of let down at how messy this game can get sometimes but boy do I think this is great altogether

dmc has a story laughably simple and straightforward in my opinion and there's some weird bits and lines that were kind of out there I SHOULDVE BEEN THE ONE TO FEEL YOUR DARK SOUL WITH LIGHT but this is my opinion I think gay furry +18 sci-fi political visual novel adastra is peak fiction so I don't think I have any saying in this

arguably the earliest example of hack and slash I know of im probably wrong there's gonna be some other hack and slash out there before this one but yeah

so basically the entirety of the gameplay is you have dante you know dante the hot sexy hunk straight out of shin megami tensei 3 going around slashing demons while himself he's a demon BOMB hes swag hes cool he swings a big sword with no hands umh zzzzzzz dante is hella fine

you got a sword and later you can acquire some different weapons to switch up your arse anal a bit and just keep going bare fucking every marionette / demon / witch / big birds you have in your way my fav ones are the knuckles umh no what we're they boxing gloves ok whatever you know the ones

there's a demon form that gives you more damage and cooler moves and you can purchase some upgrades for the weapons upgrades for the health and demon form time and some other stuff its a great time

the ost blasting in my ears pouring heavy rock based honey in them is what kept me going to be honest because there's some stuff that I don't particularly enjoy and kind of frustrated me and the stuff is known as every boss in this game

I have no idea why if this is about a ps2 canon or they tried to make the bosses difficult by giving them the most senseless movements and movesets I've ever witnessed and to bring this issue even further youre going to battle each one of them at least like 5 times this game loves recycling bosses to hell and when my entire problem with this is the bosses it's not looking good for it

I honestly hate every boss battle in this game apart from like the last one which is v cool imo even if somehow clunky af too like the most enjoyable part of the game is definitely running through hordes of enemies punching their faces and thats it so its mind boggling to me why they needed to put these incredibly frustrating boss battles but its fine

all in all enjoyed it a bit too much for my own good even if as I said the game kind of wanted me to hate it but I just couldn't

idk if its the fact that it's so short (like 4 hours or something) or just the sheer joy of slashing demons while that ass shaking battle theme plays out I end up being a little bit biased towards it but yeah

umh maybe that's it ? as I said idk this is kind of a straightforward game all around there's not too much to say about it . it's definitely a classic for good reasons and I want dante to fist me so I can understand the sentiment of ever dmc fag around here

+trish is a girlboss but her characterisation is bad femme fatale and her motives are kind of poopy ass but she's hot af and I want her to spank me so I will say she's my second fav character (because I only know 2 characters in this series for now and dante takes the cake and I sure hope he takes my cake kiss)

ps I played the HD collection lalalalalala
