DMC2 did add some nice things like the best Dante outfit and some nice music, but playable Trish was the best thing about the game, namely because she played more like DMC1 Dante.

None of the areas you walk to make any sense. One moment you are in a city street. then your under water, Then in a tunnel. Makes no fucking sense.
You fight a fucking helicopter.
Brand deal with some shitty brand jeans.
Dante's character is entirely empty.

Everything died to the guns. No reason to fight anything with your melee weapons.

I seriously cannot stop playing DMC2. It's so bad and I hate it but I was meant to move on to DMC3 2 weeks ago when I beat it but I just keep playing. I've seen other people say this, think its shit first time but then get addicted, what is this?

You can't trick me OP, not even contrarians actually like DMC2

I don't even hate the DMC2 soundtriack, I think it's got some pretty good songs. Just the game was pretty shit, Itsuno did what he could to save it.

Besides we all know DMC1 still has the best OST.

But Majin trigger was fucking baller.

>>332015814
It did look pretty cool yeah, but it was way too OP, made an easy game easier

Not really. 3 and 4's aren't very similar.

All 3 games have had the same basic core element in them

If someone is doing that bad they may as well just get a retard button.

>>332013783
3 and 4 and 1 exist.

The only DMCs that DMC2 is better is DmC and it's HD port
>>
>>332016029
So? So they can be summarized into a somewhat similair sentence, but the actual games and how the problems are resolved each time are nothing alike.

>>332013783

DmC2 makes DmC reboot look like a masterpiece

Donte had more personality than DMC2 Dante

The animations of dante are top notch in dmc 2, gotta praise em every time I play. The music and atmosphere are also good, along with majin form (too op but suitable for old dante)

Everything else is meh, but it's nowhere near as bad as DmC
>>
>>332016120
How is DMC2 better than its HD port exactly?
>>
>>332016029
But that's not really the main plot in each game. 2 is more about Lucia's bullshit, Arkham is barely a thing in 3 compared to Vergil, and in 4 the order is kind of ancillary despite being the main antagonists.

Like this anon said, >>332016193 none of it plays out the same either.

Donte's personality, while shitty and retarded, atleast existed, DMC2 dante was just a fucking edgy, quiet autist with almost no personality. Might as well never have said anything through the whole game.

>>332016793
Why bother with ebony and Ivory when you have fully automatic sub-machine guns?

...They are the same game, except one is in HD, how can the original version be better?

If you turn on automatic Ebony and Ivory shoot fully automatically anyway.

the HD port of DmC. (as in from PS3/360 to PS4/XBone)

Also, I think DmC is fucking garbage, so don't go presuming I'm a "DmC fag"

IT WAS ALREADY IN HD

Which is called the definitive edition and is outright an improvement of the original game with new and changed features.

>>332017648
Yes, you don't.

>>332017682
DmC: DMC: DE was literally not an HD port.
>>
>>332017682
HD is 720p/1080p

DmC on ps3/360 is in 720p, ie HD
DmC DE on ps4/one is in 1080p ie also HD

So calling it a HD port makes literally no sense, you double nigger

/cgg/ really should be put out of its misery. There's no discussion and it's filled with waifufags.

They literally are. The only thing that changes are some animations and damages depending the type of sword you have.

For me it's
>enemies are more mythology based like Hydra, Harpies and Golems with weird ass names rather than creepy ghosts, giant lava spiders, puppets, and monster lizards
>Dante has only 3 weapons, which are all swords which work very similarly
>Dante's sword attacks work awkwardly and carry no real weight behind them (just look at stinger for example in how Dante performs the attack and the way the enemy reacts to it)
>Dante's guns are overpowered, especially his machine guns and Stinger Launcher, which leads to boring boss fights
>Level design is huge, but really has nothing to reward exploration except more enemies to fight
>Dante's attitude is so stoic it hurts

However
>killer soundtrack
>Dante is /fa/ as fuck
>2nd best DT design behind DMC3's
>Lucia (even if it's her only game)

>>
>>332018630
yeah, Ninja Theory thought that a fucking fedora was worthy of removal in the HD port
>>
>>332013783
Isn't it the general consenus that DMC2 is the worst?

Even Capcom likes to pretend it doesn't exist. DMC4 is a sequal to 1 and 3.
>>
>>332018709
Someone at NT grew a brain?
>>
>>332018709
I mean I can't see any other reason, really from that perspective it just makes the original version even more laughable
>>
>>332018710
Oh and I forgot that it also introduced twosome time and wall running to the series
>>
>>332017901
Nigger the point he's trying to make is that "HD version" and "Enchanced version" are two different things. The DmC on the PS4 and Xbone is an Enchanced version, not an HD version of the original, as the original was already HD. You can't be this retarded.
>>
>>332018780
>Isn't it the general consenus that DMC2 is the worst?

until DmC came out
>>
>>332018793
To be fair, I think the fedora meme didn't really become a thing until sometime 2013, and DmC's original release was in January 2013.
>>
The real question is what is worse, DMC2 or Megaman X6?
>>
>>332019025
DmC > DMC2

At least the shotgun is still as satisfying as ever. Kinda found it odd that the firearm has a set of combos.

Slash, Shoot = Shooting Cartwheel
Slash, Slash, Shoot = Fireworks
Slash, Slash, Slash, Shoot = Crouch shot

I also really liked the pistol in the offhand when you're using it, even if the damage and knockback are ridiculous. Can just snipe people from the sides or behind you.

it's the same fucking game that looks prettier.

it's a HD port

>>332018684
But it's not like that all the time.

DMC2 is pretty bad but Dante's design is arguably the best next to the original. Pic related is the only good thing about the Dante from 2, and he actually had a personality
>>
>>332019156
X6. For all it's wonky ass design choices still has fans of it at least.

DMC2 is a total failure on almost all fronts and anything good about it was put into DMC3.

It literally isn't.

Does anyone else think that even though the Infested Tanks and Helicopters don't belong in Devil May Cry at all, they would be cool designs in some other game, like a horror-themed third-person shooter? I actually kind of like the demonic bio-mechanical aesthetic those enemies have.
>>
>>332020706
Speaking of demonic bio-mechanicals, I do wonder if we will ever see anything on terms with Nightmare from DMC1. If there's a Nightmare Beta weapons, does that mean the underworld has a R&D circle somewhere?
>>
>>332021427
They've probably always had some level of technology, but I think Mundus probably pushed them harder to create weapons for his invasion of the human world.
