I had a dream about DMC6. It was Dante and Vergil fighting through Hell as hinted by the end of 5. No Nero (more like Zero) and no V (for Virgin). Just Dante and Vergil doing crazy moves and killing lots of demons and shit.
I have unironically wanted Dante to get with Lady for so fricking long and for V's novel to say Dante tried but Lady turned him down made me mentally scream to my very soul.
Dante could (and would) easily and stylishly rape her to screaming orgasm. She would then fall in love and bear him many cool and handsome children (no girls)
>Can Trish even get pregnant?
No idea, honestly, could go either way. As an artificial being made by Mundus she could either come fully equipped or be unable to create life. >Also how do demons reproduce in the DMC universe?
A good question, but also a very variable one given the amount of demons we find through the series. A good bunch of lesser demons are mere evil spirits possessing something, like marionettes, sins and beelzebubs. Others look more reptilian. We do know that Sparda and Eva had to be compatible to some extent since otherwise Dante and Vergil wouldn't exist, but whether the pregnancy was caused by magic, facilitated through Sparda's human form or something else, we just don't know. The fact that shape-shifting seems like something of an universal skill for any demons above a certain level of power makes things all the more interesting

I just assumed Sparda knocked up Eva the old fashioned way. I never thought of them using magic to bring Dante and Vergil into the world. Seems unlikely that Dante and Vergil were created through some type of magic ritual
DMC 3 switch has bloody palace co op. Regular DMC 3 has secret co op with doppelganger and mission 19 by plugging in a second controller. Shame DMC hasn't really bothered with co op other than 5's cameo system.
That's literally the stuff I want back to. Keeping wall running specifically to Dante while Dante, Nero, and Vergil can all have free ride. Would be cool to do a free ride shooting blue rose while using the devil bringer to hold another demon as hostage/as a shield. Dante and Nero would have wild stomp.
i presume at the earliest it'll be announced at the end of 2024 but i presume it'll be announced in 2025 onward. 2027 is the latest possible date for me if it's not there's some problem considering capcom policy of waiting to sell things in the long run.
how much the game sell/is selling?
ah are there some leaks or something like that from the voice actors or somethung like that? generally the rumours came from them.

It really sucks how I've kinda calmed down over the years (having DMC5 helps) to kinda wish DINO had a game where he coulda shined. He obviously grew into a better person in this game but he had to be at the mercy of shitty writers.
Wouldn't DmC be some anarchic waste land? Dino and Virgen literally let all the demons loose on humanity and probably the economy/society is in ruin since Mundass was running everything.

Sensua II was announced in 2018 and outside of a "gameplay trailer" that's obviously a scripted render we have no idea what the frick is going on with this game. Its pretty easy to assume Ninja Theory is dragging production as long as possible or are fully incompetent to deliver a project within a reasonable time frame.

I wouldn't mind having him show up in a mainline game, just so real Dante could style on him.

Any of the above. Yamato cuts through dimensions so it could easily be involved, or you could just introduce some new demon artifact that fricks with the timeline, either way we could get Devil May Cry: Ultimate where you can have all the different versions of Dante be playable and interacting with each other. (And Bayonetta)

In DMC1 you can oneshot a majority of the enemy roster. How many can you oneshot again in DMC3.......? At least in DMC4 you can turn on musou mode with LDK.
this reminds me of the idea for a game someone had where Donte was some crazy fricker who delusionally THOUGHT he was Dante and the real Dante shows up later in the game to slap some sense into him.
> slap some sense into him.
not just that, but tell him to be himself, be his own character, make his own name across the lands
he can literally be turned into a real character like this
>I've kinda calmed down over the years
Same, getting DMC5 has mellowed my rage over it, I'm even kinda curious how the game would've been like if they haven't backpedalled hard after the TGS trailer.
The gameplay would probably be the same as the final version, it's the story and tone that got the big doctoring. The whole thing with Donte being a patient or test subject at some kind of hospital was cut, and they also overhauled his look to no longer resemble a meth addict.
For the story, Dante and Vergil's journey through hell seems like the obvious route to take. Might even get to cash in all the Divine Comedy references.
>Playable Vergil in vanilla game.
Special Edition character is Sparda then?
>Dante, Vergil and Nero all part of the story >Big overhaul for Vergil and new shit for Nero >Dante gets new toys >30 missions >Big levels like 5's M15 offering multiple paths
>Big overhaul for Vergil
Why? I think he's the character that needs least overhaul. He is perfect. Nero needs lots of new moves and maybe even weapons such as Mirage Yamato imo. Nero has like 20 moves in his moveset which is smallest of any J-Action game.
>Dante, Vergil and Nero all part of the story >Big overhaul for Vergil and new shit for Nero >Dante gets new toys >30 missions >Big levels like 5's M15 offering multiple paths
He's got Trish and Lady as dedicated partners and friend zoned Lucia without meaning to, technically Nero is a partner too since he runs the DMC van that Nico drives
Not a single one of them
Kamiya says he's interested in Trish, Itsuno says Trish is just a partner and Lady and Dante are both too emotionally messed up in the same way to have a relationship
>He's got Trish and Lady as dedicated partners
Lady is a freelancer who often books Dante with a job, she has never been part of his Devil May Cry business, Trish was his only employee untill DMC5 had Nero be given Dante’s blessing to start a branch, which is ironically more successful than Dante’s since Nero is actually making a living without owning anything to anyone.
That plush Nero is mobile so he probably has better response time and doesn't need an office. Also Kyrie has an orphanage so she probably gets some tax write off.
Lady's so closely associated with him she may as well be an employee imo, she fields basically any job she can't handle to him (and pockets the difference after)
Baphomet are way too fragiles and easy to counter and their attacks are slow...
We just need more reactive and more tanky demons with large aoe to make them feel they are powerful and just not any meatbag for the player to beat.

I propose something, less shitty inputs like pressing the down and up keys to execute a move.
The joys of keyboard eh... Drive, Dance Macabre and Void Slash are a pain to execute in keyboard.

Dante doesn't need any improvement except than I miss quicksilver on him and give me back the air raid on Devil Trigger and not on SDT!
The dual tonfa and bo thing is damn promising and can't wait to imagine what kind of crazy combos we can do with these!
Nevan on Vergil could be good or bad since Vergil's gameplay is based on speed, reaction, precision, it's all depends how it is executed but instead of bats it's could shoot ravens or swords.
Moves steal should be on Dante and it's could be damn funny!
Your idea is Nero's bringers is good because I feel them kinda blank and not well executed...
Every game with a fandom eventually devolves into shipping
Happened to Bayonetta, and it will happen to DMC at some point too
Oh boy, it's already happening since a long time!

I'm kind of considering Patty as SDT or Judgement Cut End, but a bit more heart-pounding since it takes more damage instead of less when activated. Like SDT, less stylish gameplay, but more like a reward for being stylish. I mean, except for a few moves, SDT is cinematic "kill everything on screen" attacks.
Massive nuke around the map make me feel powerful and I love that!
>I never touched a controller of my life.

>instead of speaking of gameplay and new gimmicks that should come for dmc6
Make mid/high tier enemies punish you for mindless snatches, like 4frost or fury do.
Enemies more prone to use their anti air attacks
Have some mid tier enemies escape air combos unless you stun/destroy their defence like harpy's wings from reboot
Turn breakers into demonic powers tied to DT meter like in concept art.
Can be a good opportunity to reuse amulet like system from 2.
>It is very very fricking weird how this is just in DMC4.
I mean what other enemy besides frost can do it in 4? Iirc assault and angelos just block with shield without counterattacking. Blitz?
The ship for that concept art has sailed. Nero absorbed things into his bringer because he had to make up for not unlocking his true power. After 5, he now has his own power to stand on so wouldn't need to absorb things anymore. Breakers are a great substitute and can offer some cool visual variety.
>After 5, he now has his own power to stand on so wouldn't need to absorb things anymore.
I think Nero need to have a reward for defeating bosses, otherwise it is just 4 again where you get some utility shit like secret detector lmao. Maybe have you customise devil bringer properties, again like amulets from 2.
They already did this in 5 with bosses creating new breakers.
I would like for nero to get a new weapon after killing a boss.
Sadly they seem intent on locking Nero into being a tutorial character so won't ever give him too much stuff as to not overwhelm players. They need to drop this mindset because it will hold him back.
>They need to drop this mindset because it will hold him back.
Nero only game. Boom, problem solved.

I think the best case would be DMC6 and 7 are basically developed as one project. 6 can be Nero's game where they go all in with him and overhaul him, 7 would be Dante, overhauling Vergil and maybe testing out co-op. Then bring them all back in 8.
As it stands, 6 is still a long way off and 7 probably would be too. They can't afford to have a Nero game for 6 in this current model which sucks as Nero's my favourite. So either they do what I said, they drop him or they go like 5 and have the big three share the stage but that would mean Nero is held back as the tutorial character.

Which is why I'd like them to essentially treat 6 and 7 as one game. All things considered, Dante is done other than new toys so Nero and Vergil should get the shine. They might not need to even split them apart if that approach is taken.

>Devil Booster >a new device created by Nico, looks like a series of bracers, gauntlets or arm guards >draws energy from demonic cores, like the Evil Eyes above or similar >permanently puts his arm into a self contained DT state >different Boosters = different forms of arm = different abilities >is basically the same idea as 3's Devil Triggers while allowing Nero to have something like his classic Bringer look AND some mechanical parts on top to supplement it
I have an idea for a story that could tie into too, but it would broadly parallel Vergil's own corruption into a biomechanical knight.
>Turn breakers into demonic powers tied to DT meter like in concept art. >Can be a good opportunity to reuse amulet like system from 2.
Frick no, RPG mechanics don't belong in action games. They could use something similar to that concept art in 6 and give special states(like style system) to Nero's arms though. Like allowing Nero to generate a shield for parries, giving him Mirage Yamato and 2 more for DPAD. I didn't really liked Breaker system because they are too situational besides few good ones such as Ragtime, Punchline and Overture. Wouldn't miss them if they replaced them with Bringer styles. I like Nero's grab and suplex abilities though, they should keep them.
I always thought it would be fun to have multiple characters at once, using something similar to style-switching.
My idea was a "ladies of DMC" mode >Trish: basically Swordmaster, deals damage at close range >Lady: isn't it obvious? >Nico: she's equipped Nero's prosthetic arms into handheld weapons, and supercharged them. Uses up the DT meter. >Patty: can perform powerful magic spells that take a long time to charge, using large amounts of the DT meter. A glass cannon, she takes extra damage. But, knowing the heiress of the same name, she can cash in a few "favors" by having an unseen bodyguard interrupt attacks via sniper fire at the last moment. Basically a defense-only Royal Guard with limited use to allow spells to be charged. >each time a character is switched the last one will call out the next one's name.
>Vergil is the 5th style. Instead of getting called on, he'll complain about needing to get involved when he appears, and say the fight is dull when you switch away from him.
>Wonderful 101 but Wonderful 5
Would be cool
>Vergil got Summoned Swords from touching Force Edge >Nero got Summoned Swords from touching Yamato >Dante got jack shit from either.
I want a sorceress type of character. I'm one of the few people who didn't minded V. I'm not a fan of "ranged" action type of characters they are pushing for but if they want stupid gimmicks might as well make it a shooter.
My pitch for DMC6 is having it star Nero, running Devil May cry with Nico, Morrison, Kyrie and the Ladies. Nero, Lady and Trish are all playable, and the story focuses on Nero literally taking on cases to pay the bills. Nico makes the business more profitable by actively seeking out cases (instead of just letting stuff come in, like Dante did) and about 3/4 of the way through the game, Nico accidentally stumbles on information that gives them a lead on how to break Dante and Vergil out of Hell. The last 1/4 of the game is a rescue mission into Hell to get them out. Dante and Vergil aren't playable so they can focus on the systems for the main three, but obviously could be added in a Special Edition or DMC7.
Gameplay changes focus on giving Nero new Devil Arms, Guns and Breakers to flesh out his arsenal to be more like Dante's. Holding a button to charge your gun during combat doesn't come back, but you can add timed shots to the end of certain combos that hit similarly hard.
Lady and Trish I'm a little torn on. I think it might almost be fun to have them be a single character and you can swap between them on the fly, with Trish being your melee and Lady being ranged, but that might feel TOO arcadey even for DMC. I would love to see Lady actually get some supernatural weapons and for Trish to get something other than Sparda.

I like the idea of a glass cannon spell caster but the thing is how we are gonna make this stylish?
I'm kind of considering Patty as SDT or Judgement Cut End, but a bit more heart-pounding since it takes more damage instead of less when activated. Like SDT, less stylish gameplay, but more like a reward for being stylish. I mean, except for a few moves, SDT is cinematic "kill everything on screen" attacks.
They shouldn't touch how style meter works other than perhaps slowing it down to reach S. If you make it too much like Quad S then player expression dies. Imagine shit like SSS gives you more damage, more defense, more DT gain, longer DT, more DT health regen etc. Players would soon just do the bare minimum to hit SSS then go all out to end fights quick.
Being stylish is its own reward. But I recently discovered that DMC3 extended the length of crazy combos at higher stylish rankings. That's pretty cool since it's basically rewarding you by allowing you to be even more stylish.
>dude like pins and needles......i'm so heckin styleish.....i'm liek....a combo artist.......
dude frick off I wanna kill the mobs not jerk them to death.
Vergil needs Yamato styles >Quick style
Dual wield Yamato with the scabbard, fast but weak >regular style
Old moveset >strong style
2handing Yamato, slow but strong
way too much makeup
Lady's appeal is that she's very no-nonsense, all of her gear is just strapped onto her casual wear, her most flamboyant design standpoint is her hairstyle
It makes me so mad that Dante isn't with Lady, they clearly love each other after the end of 3 and in the anime where she's always hanging around his office to be near him. Fricking let them be together already.
It's slightly odd that the Devil Breakers break so easily though. I mean look at Dante. He uses a lot of manmade weapons with non-demonic material and none of them ever break. Ebony and Ivory are fine after like twenty years. I always assumed that Dante was reiforcing his shit with demonic power, hence why he's able to charge his guns and not have them implode from the strain. I also assumed that Nero was capable of something similar, seeing as how he's able to use Blue Rose in a similar manner.
I mean if you turbocharged a Glock with energy, I'd imagine it wouldn't be able to deal with that kind of stress under normal circumstances.
IIRC in the novel or the manga Dante used to go through guns very quickly since they couldn't take his power, E&I were super special and custom made for him.
Also, he isn't really punching enemies with them. But any kind of durablity consistency goes out of the window because Yamato can only cut through anything when the plot requires it.
It's gonna be about Virgil again.
We will find out Nero has a little sister and a demon cult has her, possibly brainwashed, and are trying to revive a dead demon god.
Dante needs to stop grabbing ass and start paying his bills clearly
he does too much pro bono work so he's always broke
He's actually broke because he's constantly getting charged for property damage he causes on jobs.
That and giving the one daughter of his former merc partner money too.
DMC6 gonna suck almost certainly
That's what they said about DMC5
I had a dream about DMC6. It was Dante and Vergil fighting through Hell as hinted by the end of 5. No Nero (more like Zero) and no V (for Virgin). Just Dante and Vergil doing crazy moves and killing lots of demons and shit.

Her boyfriend (black) has a bigger penis
Dante could (and would) easily and stylishly rape her to screaming orgasm. She would then fall in love and bear him many cool and handsome children (no girls)
Dante is too nice, and too much of a bottom to rape anyone (Except maybe Nevan). He's a total bratty sub due in no small part to his mommy issues.
Funniest shit i've read in months.
Blame Itsuno for not wanting to offend Kamiya by pairing Dante with his own waifu instead of Trish.
I find it funny how Itsuno is so concerned with offending Kamiya, when the latter doesn't really care about Dante anymore.
Huh? One of the few times Kamiya isn’t raging at twitter messages and blocking people is when people asked him genuine Devil May Cry questions.

A good bunch of lesser demons are mere evil spirits possessing something, like marionettes, sins and beelzebubs. Others look more reptilian.

The fact that shape-shifting seems like something of an universal skill for any demons above a certain level of power makes things all the more interesting

Notice how Ken in SF also is married and has kids but his wife isn't an actual established character.

If DMC6 is ever made (I don't think it will ever happen but who knows) it'll probably focus on 2 player Coop.

I don't think it should focus on that but it should have coop imo. No J-Action with coop even to this day.
DMC 3 switch has bloody palace co op. Regular DMC 3 has secret co op with doppelganger and mission 19 by plugging in a second controller. Shame DMC hasn't really bothered with co op other than 5's cameo system.
I mean Bayonetta 2 also has Tag Climax too but it's not like a Bloody Palace coop or like playing the story mode coop.
>when can we expect DMC6?
2029 the earliest, I assume. What would you guys want from a DMC 6?
I want wallrun back. And free ride. And wild stomp
That's literally the stuff I want back to. Keeping wall running specifically to Dante while Dante, Nero, and Vergil can all have free ride. Would be cool to do a free ride shooting blue rose while using the devil bringer to hold another demon as hostage/as a shield. Dante and Nero would have wild stomp.

Wouldn't DmC be some anarchic waste land? Dino and Virgen literally let all the demons loose on humanity and probably the economy/society is in ruin since Mundass was running everything.
I could see some appeal in Mad Max May Cry and kinda hate you for making me want that.
Blame ninja theory for shit talking and not making a better game. Also I think I post a mad max May cry concept a months ago.
>ninja theory
Insane how obvious they are just playing the long con with Microsoft on their artsy fartsy project
>Insane how obvious they are just playing the long con with Microsoft on their artsy fartsy project
Can you elaborate?
Sensua II was announced in 2018 and outside of a "gameplay trailer" that's obviously a scripted render we have no idea what the frick is going on with this game. Its pretty easy to assume Ninja Theory is dragging production as long as possible or are fully incompetent to deliver a project within a reasonable time frame.
I see.
How would he show up? Demon magic? Yamato BS?
Any of the above. Yamato cuts through dimensions so it could easily be involved, or you could just introduce some new demon artifact that fricks with the timeline, either way we could get Devil May Cry: Ultimate where you can have all the different versions of Dante be playable and interacting with each other. (And Bayonetta)
>How would he show up?
Tedan.
>Tedan
But he was already in DMC 2
>DMC2
DMC2 doesn't exist though. Like how iPhone 9 doesn't exist because DMC3 was such an improvement over 1 they decided to skip the 2.
DMC3 isn't even a better game than 4. Everyone just likes the cutscenes of one more.
DMC4 turned the series into punching sandbags in the air though. You could also do that in DMC3 but you needed to learn jump cancelling which is alot harder to do.
In DMC1 you can oneshot a majority of the enemy roster. How many can you oneshot again in DMC3.......? At least in DMC4 you can turn on musou mode with LDK.
I wouldn't mind having him show up in a mainline game, just so real Dante could style on him.
Just as long as he isn't on screen just to be killed off. I don't hate him that much for him to be turned into that kind of joke.
If any of them died it would definitely be him, though probably not until after the other Dante's were just starting to like him.
So no getting Zilla'd?
Yeah, you kinda read my mind when I made that post haha
this reminds me of the idea for a game someone had where Donte was some crazy fricker who delusionally THOUGHT he was Dante and the real Dante shows up later in the game to slap some sense into him.
Yeah I think that was some dude's "Wasted Potential" youtube video
> slap some sense into him.
not just that, but tell him to be himself, be his own character, make his own name across the lands
he can literally be turned into a real character like this
The funny thing is the Donte cosplay is the best one. Everyone always uses too vibrant of a red for Dante cosplays
>I've kinda calmed down over the years
Same, getting DMC5 has mellowed my rage over it, I'm even kinda curious how the game would've been like if they haven't backpedalled hard after the TGS trailer.
I think the original DmC would've been a bit more coherent in its own narrative, Donte's personality is at odds with the plot and his backstory now
What would the gameplay have been like? Alice madness returns with combos and juggling?
Probably same as retail imo, but a bit harder on trying to "one up DMC" with shit like Trillion Stab
The gameplay would probably be the same as the final version, it's the story and tone that got the big doctoring. The whole thing with Donte being a patient or test subject at some kind of hospital was cut, and they also overhauled his look to no longer resemble a meth addict.
>el donte and the squirrel semen drinker.
name a more ironic duo.
sparda gave her super aids which also got her pregnant, then she died from super aids
dat ass is looking mighty fine
Dante will make Patty a mother.
And he will be happy.
She did call him on her birthday, old man dante gotta bring in the new era of dmc kids. None of that dead weight.
you will rike your chinese gacha game spinoff when it gets an english release in a year or 2.
Will the gacha at least have controller support?
Playable Vergil in vanilla game.
For the story, Dante and Vergil's journey through hell seems like the obvious route to take. Might even get to cash in all the Divine Comedy references.
https://vocaroo.com/1cMcLwR8G4AF
>Playable Vergil in vanilla game.
Special Edition character is Sparda then?
>Big overhaul for Vergil
Why? I think he's the character that needs least overhaul. He is perfect. Nero needs lots of new moves and maybe even weapons such as Mirage Yamato imo. Nero has like 20 moves in his moveset which is smallest of any J-Action game.
>Dante, Vergil and Nero all part of the story
>Big overhaul for Vergil and new shit for Nero
>Dante gets new toys
>30 missions
>Big levels like 5's M15 offering multiple paths
I never understood who is supposed to be Dante's partner
He's got Trish and Lady as dedicated partners and friend zoned Lucia without meaning to, technically Nero is a partner too since he runs the DMC van that Nico drives
I meant the girl he fricks
>dante
>fricks
lol
what?
Not a single one of them
Kamiya says he's interested in Trish, Itsuno says Trish is just a partner and Lady and Dante are both too emotionally messed up in the same way to have a relationship
Why is Capcom so keen on having sexless characters? Only Barry had sex
More specifically Kamiya is, and even then he likes them to be flirtatious
Ken from street has a wife and kid.
He's not the protagonist or face of the series like Dante is to DMC.
Morrison is the closest thing to a partner he has, since he brings the jobs in, and Dante also left the business to him. Nero is more of a franchisee.
>Morrison is the closest thing to a partner he has, since he brings the jobs in
>Nero is more of a franchisee.
So what was Enzo?
>He's got Trish and Lady as dedicated partners
Lady is a freelancer who often books Dante with a job, she has never been part of his Devil May Cry business, Trish was his only employee untill DMC5 had Nero be given Dante’s blessing to start a branch, which is ironically more successful than Dante’s since Nero is actually making a living without owning anything to anyone.
That plush Nero is mobile so he probably has better response time and doesn't need an office. Also Kyrie has an orphanage so she probably gets some tax write off.
Lady's so closely associated with him she may as well be an employee imo, she fields basically any job she can't handle to him (and pockets the difference after)
at least 10 years, given the time between DMC4 and 5
Yeah but that was more to do with DmC being between them. I assume DMC 6 would comes out about 4 to 5 years after DD2
>mfw everyone speak about who should sex who or this would sex this instead of speaking of gameplay and new gimmicks that should come for dmc6
>he says as he posts the one character that actually canonically had sex
You got any ideas of improving DMC's gameplay? I miss the frost demons.
Brainstorming in process...
Also those frost demons were good anon.
I wish frost were in 5. I did not like the Baphomet or the Lusachia.
Baphomet are way too fragiles and easy to counter and their attacks are slow...
We just need more reactive and more tanky demons with large aoe to make them feel they are powerful and just not any meatbag for the player to beat.
The joys of keyboard eh... Drive, Dance Macabre and Void Slash are a pain to execute in keyboard.
>Baphomet are way too fragiles and easy to counter and their attacks are slow...
>We just need more reactive and more tanky demons with large aoe to make them feel they are powerful and just not any meatbag for the player to beat.
So frost
>The joys of keyboard eh... Drive, Dance Macabre and Void Slash are a pain to execute in keyboard.
I just shoved a controller wire in my pc
Jackpot, also I trained long enough with the timing of those to trigger those action since I never touched a controller of my life.
>I never touched a controller of my life.
I find that hard to believe
I propose something, less shitty inputs like pressing the down and up keys to execute a move.
Frick it. Cross breeding the lizard demons. Frost furys, riot blades, chaos blitz, etc.
>Dante idk
>Vergil gets Yamato as usual but two new weapons; demonic tonfa and Queen Nevan
>Tonfa are the Beowulf/gauntlet replacement but can also combine into a bo staff, the demon itself is like Agni and Rudra, each arm of the tonfa is a separate demon
>Queen Nevan is a cool unga axe guitar where Vergil can hold a note (combo input), think dodge offset from Bayo and it can also shoot bats
>Vergil can switch between doppelganger and trick styles
>Doppelganger will spawn with your equipped weapon now, no more mods needed
>Also, doppelganger + taunt lets Vergil use V's cane to steal an enemy's likeness and moves
>While locked on, player can control doppelganger with the style button if doppelganger style is selected
>Nero gets Bringer arms as a gauntlet equivalent
>Breakers get more inputs
>Wire snatch is gone to allow for bringer arms moves
>New breakers are a mallet used for smashing, a Dr Faust esque turret breaker and a magnet
>Mallet is straight forward unga smash with big moves, break age is a massive AOE slam
>Turret breaker lets you attach the gun to enemies to draw aggro as well as float separately, break age is a big mounted machine gun with explosive shots but you are rooted so vulnerable
>Magnet lets you repel projectiles, catch them and release, break age lets you lock enemies in mid air for a little while
Dante doesn't need any improvement except than I miss quicksilver on him and give me back the air raid on Devil Trigger and not on SDT!
The dual tonfa and bo thing is damn promising and can't wait to imagine what kind of crazy combos we can do with these!
Nevan on Vergil could be good or bad since Vergil's gameplay is based on speed, reaction, precision, it's all depends how it is executed but instead of bats it's could shoot ravens or swords.
Moves steal should be on Dante and it's could be damn funny!
Your idea is Nero's bringers is good because I feel them kinda blank and not well executed...
Oh boy, it's already happening since a long time!
But the more coomers we try to gatekeep and the more they come!
Massive nuke around the map make me feel powerful and I love that!
It's more common than you think.
Every game with a fandom eventually devolves into shipping
Happened to Bayonetta, and it will happen to DMC at some point too
>instead of speaking of gameplay and new gimmicks that should come for dmc6
Make mid/high tier enemies punish you for mindless snatches, like 4frost or fury do.
Enemies more prone to use their anti air attacks
Have some mid tier enemies escape air combos unless you stun/destroy their defence like harpy's wings from reboot
Turn breakers into demonic powers tied to DT meter like in concept art.
Can be a good opportunity to reuse amulet like system from 2.
>Make mid/high tier enemies punish you for mindless snatches, like 4frost or fury do.
It is very very fricking weird how this is just in DMC4.
>It is very very fricking weird how this is just in DMC4.
I mean what other enemy besides frost can do it in 4? Iirc assault and angelos just block with shield without counterattacking. Blitz?
>After 5, he now has his own power to stand on so wouldn't need to absorb things anymore.
I think Nero need to have a reward for defeating bosses, otherwise it is just 4 again where you get some utility shit like secret detector lmao. Maybe have you customise devil bringer properties, again like amulets from 2.
I would like for nero to get a new weapon after killing a boss.
They already did this in 5 with bosses creating new breakers.
Sadly they seem intent on locking Nero into being a tutorial character so won't ever give him too much stuff as to not overwhelm players. They need to drop this mindset because it will hold him back.
>They need to drop this mindset because it will hold him back.
Nero only game. Boom, problem solved.
but it won't happen
I think the best case would be DMC6 and 7 are basically developed as one project. 6 can be Nero's game where they go all in with him and overhaul him, 7 would be Dante, overhauling Vergil and maybe testing out co-op. Then bring them all back in 8.
As it stands, 6 is still a long way off and 7 probably would be too. They can't afford to have a Nero game for 6 in this current model which sucks as Nero's my favourite. So either they do what I said, they drop him or they go like 5 and have the big three share the stage but that would mean Nero is held back as the tutorial character.
Can Nero at least have breaker switching and all breakers have some type of effect on his base abilities?
Nero only game would sell about half as well as DMC5. They'd probably slash the budget in order to accommodate that.
Which is why I'd like them to essentially treat 6 and 7 as one game. All things considered, Dante is done other than new toys so Nero and Vergil should get the shine. They might not need to even split them apart if that approach is taken.
The ship for that concept art has sailed. Nero absorbed things into his bringer because he had to make up for not unlocking his true power. After 5, he now has his own power to stand on so wouldn't need to absorb things anymore. Breakers are a great substitute and can offer some cool visual variety.
Nero having a summon arm feels a bit weird
It makes sense I guess, with his old arm being ripped off and it took him a month to unlock his real power, the healing was too delayed.
>Devil Booster
>a new device created by Nico, looks like a series of bracers, gauntlets or arm guards
>draws energy from demonic cores, like the Evil Eyes above or similar
>permanently puts his arm into a self contained DT state
>different Boosters = different forms of arm = different abilities
>is basically the same idea as 3's Devil Triggers while allowing Nero to have something like his classic Bringer look AND some mechanical parts on top to supplement it
I have an idea for a story that could tie into too, but it would broadly parallel Vergil's own corruption into a biomechanical knight.
>Turn breakers into demonic powers tied to DT meter like in concept art.
>Can be a good opportunity to reuse amulet like system from 2.
Frick no, RPG mechanics don't belong in action games. They could use something similar to that concept art in 6 and give special states(like style system) to Nero's arms though. Like allowing Nero to generate a shield for parries, giving him Mirage Yamato and 2 more for DPAD. I didn't really liked Breaker system because they are too situational besides few good ones such as Ragtime, Punchline and Overture. Wouldn't miss them if they replaced them with Bringer styles. I like Nero's grab and suplex abilities though, they should keep them.
>Wonderful 101 but Wonderful 5
Would be cool
DSD gave him his own summoned swords.
Not the point. Neither Nero nor Vergil needed to create their own supreme devil sword in order to obtain summoned swords.
I want a sorceress type of character. I'm one of the few people who didn't minded V. I'm not a fan of "ranged" action type of characters they are pushing for but if they want stupid gimmicks might as well make it a shooter.
My pitch for DMC6 is having it star Nero, running Devil May cry with Nico, Morrison, Kyrie and the Ladies. Nero, Lady and Trish are all playable, and the story focuses on Nero literally taking on cases to pay the bills. Nico makes the business more profitable by actively seeking out cases (instead of just letting stuff come in, like Dante did) and about 3/4 of the way through the game, Nico accidentally stumbles on information that gives them a lead on how to break Dante and Vergil out of Hell. The last 1/4 of the game is a rescue mission into Hell to get them out. Dante and Vergil aren't playable so they can focus on the systems for the main three, but obviously could be added in a Special Edition or DMC7.
Gameplay changes focus on giving Nero new Devil Arms, Guns and Breakers to flesh out his arsenal to be more like Dante's. Holding a button to charge your gun during combat doesn't come back, but you can add timed shots to the end of certain combos that hit similarly hard.
Lady and Trish I'm a little torn on. I think it might almost be fun to have them be a single character and you can swap between them on the fly, with Trish being your melee and Lady being ranged, but that might feel TOO arcadey even for DMC. I would love to see Lady actually get some supernatural weapons and for Trish to get something other than Sparda.
Vidya butt-grabbing thread?
I always thought it would be fun to have multiple characters at once, using something similar to style-switching.
My idea was a "ladies of DMC" mode
>Trish: basically Swordmaster, deals damage at close range
>Lady: isn't it obvious?
>Nico: she's equipped Nero's prosthetic arms into handheld weapons, and supercharged them. Uses up the DT meter.
>Patty: can perform powerful magic spells that take a long time to charge, using large amounts of the DT meter. A glass cannon, she takes extra damage. But, knowing the heiress of the same name, she can cash in a few "favors" by having an unseen bodyguard interrupt attacks via sniper fire at the last moment. Basically a defense-only Royal Guard with limited use to allow spells to be charged.
>each time a character is switched the last one will call out the next one's name.
>Vergil is the 5th style. Instead of getting called on, he'll complain about needing to get involved when he appears, and say the fight is dull when you switch away from him.
I like the idea of a glass cannon spell caster but the thing is how we are gonna make this stylish?
So Trish
>Swordmaster
Lady
>Gunslinger
Nico
>Trickster
Patty
>Royal Guard
Vergil
>like Zero in X3
Amrite?
Yeah you got it basically, but also
I'm kind of considering Patty as SDT or Judgement Cut End, but a bit more heart-pounding since it takes more damage instead of less when activated. Like SDT, less stylish gameplay, but more like a reward for being stylish. I mean, except for a few moves, SDT is cinematic "kill everything on screen" attacks.
They could do more to make the style meter effect combat. Must Style mode and Dante's Quad S are good.
They shouldn't touch how style meter works other than perhaps slowing it down to reach S. If you make it too much like Quad S then player expression dies. Imagine shit like SSS gives you more damage, more defense, more DT gain, longer DT, more DT health regen etc. Players would soon just do the bare minimum to hit SSS then go all out to end fights quick.
>They shouldn't touch how style meter works
Stopped reading there. stfu boomer nerd.
More flashy and powerful finishers while on higher ranks of style?
Being stylish is its own reward. But I recently discovered that DMC3 extended the length of crazy combos at higher stylish rankings. That's pretty cool since it's basically rewarding you by allowing you to be even more stylish.
>dude like pins and needles......i'm so heckin styleish.....i'm liek....a combo artist.......
dude frick off I wanna kill the mobs not jerk them to death.
Vergil needs Yamato styles
>Quick style
Dual wield Yamato with the scabbard, fast but weak
>regular style
Old moveset
>strong style
2handing Yamato, slow but strong
You guys worried at all they might recast Dante?
Worried? I go to sleep crying every night praying Reuben gets recasted.
Ah. 🙁
>people still want dmc 6 after what dmc 5 was
yup, i think i hate vidya
>hispanic thread
This has unironically been one of the better threads
After dmc5 multiplayer bloody palace. Where the frick is it capcom?
way too much makeup
Lady's appeal is that she's very no-nonsense, all of her gear is just strapped onto her casual wear, her most flamboyant design standpoint is her hairstyle
>the only real dmc discussion is shipgay shit
this series needs to die
Motherfricker, people are talking gameplay concepts in here, too. You fricking buzzkill.
Launch title along the PS6
It makes me so mad that Dante isn't with Lady, they clearly love each other after the end of 3 and in the anime where she's always hanging around his office to be near him. Fricking let them be together already.
see
It's slightly odd that the Devil Breakers break so easily though. I mean look at Dante. He uses a lot of manmade weapons with non-demonic material and none of them ever break. Ebony and Ivory are fine after like twenty years. I always assumed that Dante was reiforcing his shit with demonic power, hence why he's able to charge his guns and not have them implode from the strain. I also assumed that Nero was capable of something similar, seeing as how he's able to use Blue Rose in a similar manner.
I mean if you turbocharged a Glock with energy, I'd imagine it wouldn't be able to deal with that kind of stress under normal circumstances.
IIRC in the novel or the manga Dante used to go through guns very quickly since they couldn't take his power, E&I were super special and custom made for him.
Also, he isn't really punching enemies with them.
But any kind of durablity consistency goes out of the window because Yamato can only cut through anything when the plot requires it.
It's planned by Nico so Nero has to pay her for more
none of dante's toys were complicated robotic parts though
It's gonna be about Virgil again.
We will find out Nero has a little sister and a demon cult has her, possibly brainwashed, and are trying to revive a dead demon god.
tps lady spinoff game when
>Vergil got Summoned Swords from touching Force Edge
>Nero got Summoned Swords from touching Yamato
>Dante got jack shit from either.
