this game fucks and is the most video game video game ever.

My first FromSoftware game. I kinda just like walking around the world and looking at stuff. Everything is super cool, from the boss designs, to the arenas, and the world itself.

As for my gripes with the game, I did not really enjoy how clunky multiplayer feels and how invasions are just kinda annoying. You could be low level and be goofing off in a low level area with your friends, only to be invaded by some douche who decided to somehow get high level stuff and completely wreck you.

Other than that, I would say overall that the worldbuilding is the game's strongest area.

This game is hard as balls and makes me want to throw up sometimes but I still love it. Definitely shows insane improvement since DMC1 (and infinitely better than DMC2). It really feels like the REAL first Devil May Cry (makes sense since it’s the prequel).
The weapons are really creative and the gameplay is classic and has insane attention to detail. Whatever you see Dante do in the cutscenes, he does in game. Doesn’t need all the bells and whistles that it’s sequels have to still be a fun time. I just wish it didn’t have that classic game bull shit to make it harder.

All of the characters are hot. The gameplay loop feels great. The story is great. The way that combat flows with almost all weapons feels great. What's not to love about a masterpiece like this?

It is a nice cozy little game. The characters are awesome and everything about this game just feels relaxing. Don't go into it expecting something super complex though, but I would say that the simplicity of this game adds to the charm of it.

This game kinda just... sucks. Picked it up on sale because why not? The game does have its weird humor moments like "haha i'm pissing!" or "he said the petition thing!" That is all overshadowed though when you play any other part of it. While I know the point of the game is tasteless edginess though the medium of like racist stereotypes or whatever. This game shows that being edgy for the sake of edginess is not really fun nor entertaining after 3 minutes.

There is only like 3 hot characters (it is not any of the students). Also having played through all of the base game routes in the game, the game simply exists. Combat is fun, but the worldbuilding is just alright.

A near flawless game that has unmatched presentation and fluidity in its genre. The story is great, and the way its told is a great innovation in game design.
Only reason it's not a 5 is because sometimes I felt like the game got a little stale. But that's a personal thing I have with rougelikes.
