He started doing it before it was a meme, and it has always been a part of his persona. Other characters do the whol silly randomlulz thing as a way to pander to maymay loving tweens.

It's almost like the games are tonally aware. Well, at least 3 and 4 are. 1 is, mostly.

DmC was not aware of anything, really, much less itself.

It's okay when Dante does it because he's a fucking dork.
>>
DMC4 Dante was cringeworthy though. There's no fucking reason he should act llike he did in 3 outside of the development team not knowing what the fuck they're doing.

It's almost parallel to how RE5 is a near carbon copy of RE4 because the new dev team had no clue what to do, so they just copied what people liked.

I never said he was deep, in fact he is supposed to have fairly obvious motivators. What I mean is that his actions are varied. One liners, various actions he makes, witty comments, intelligence, his subtle signs of respect, and even just his general attitude. He is himself. He is not an amalgamation of "lol so random" bullshit. It is like this

Dante: No need for obscenities, his banter is based on the situation and the character he is interacting with, he remains calm and has genuine confidence, he is not condescending towards his opponents or anyone he works with, he actually does give a shit about everything but he isn't written to have that be completely worn on the sleeve, etc.

Donte: FUCK YOU, FUCK YOU, FUCK YOU, ugly sack of shit, etc. This character, while not as bad as most people like to pretend, is still bad. He is written to have the illusion of confidence, which is why he comes off as such a tool. He chucks out generic one liners that have little to nothing to do with a specific context, he is written to have a "devil may care" attitude but the exposition completely contradicts that (which is a cheap way to characterize), he is condescending towards EVERY character in the game, including Kat and Vergil, etc. Hell the game even makes it a point to blantantly let you know that Dante has a big dick (then there is the dick measuring dialogue), which there is absolutely no point to. It is all a feeble attempt to built a character who projects confidence, rather than built a character who is actually confident.

the original DMC quadrilogy was in essence supposed to simulate the feel of B action/horror flicks with gothic undertones
cheesiness included, it's completely intentional because the plot and characters are supposed to come together and feel like a low budget silly flick. Nobody plays DMC for the story, it's for the gameplay. The acting, characters, and story are all cheesy because they're trying to simulate movies where the acting and story are bad and you're just there for the action. Just like how you're playing DMC for the action gameplay first, story second.

I don't even have an issue with Dante in 3. He's a teenager and a fucking dork, the game even goes as far as to show it. He fails to do the Fonzie trick, he's awful with women, etc...

DMC4 Dante is just "lol, I'm 2cool4u and I have assless chaps"

The ideal Dante would be his personality from 1/Viewtiful Joe and his outfit from 2.

Anyway, cringe or not, the gameplay in the Devil May Cry games is good enough to compensate for cheesy writing and characters, so that helps a lot, and it's part of the reason the character is liked.
If they were bad games then yeah, we would have more people focused on how the character is written, and more people being nitpicky about it.

>>
>>336955615
Chill your shit. Nobody cares about your inflamed asshole, and this conversation isn't about Bayonetta. Also, personality is kind of irrelevant to fighting abiliy.

But yeah, people accept Dante's cheesy goofiness because it's part of his character, and not all of his character. Just like how people liked Deadpool's first main series, but the more recent ones are fucking garbage because he turned into a flat lolrandom character

He had mostly the same back story in the original.
>>
>>336958042
The fuck are you talking about?

DmC basically just took Dante's old backstory and decided to make dumb changes to it, like making his mom an angel, which completely fucks over the whole 'humanity has something demons don't thing' that was a pretty prevalent thematic thing, but hey, its not like the DmC devs actually played any of the previous games anyways.

>>336958692
The gameplay. Arguably the best in the series, going neck and neck with DMC3, depending on who you ask.

I loved Uncle Dante's antics. DMC is a series that works well not taking itself to seriously, and a cheery, corny Dante that really gets into the campy theatrics also just works well, at least in my opinion.
>>
So DMC5 might be a thing apparently?
>>
>>336954001
>There's no fucking reason he should act llike he did in 3 outside of the development team not knowing what the fuck they're doing.
How about maybe the fact that he was young? DMC1 Dante wasn't a total goofball but he had some cheeky confidence to him. DMC3 took place when he was just getting his start so with the younger age came a wilder and more cocky attitude because he hadn't grown the fuck up yet. DMC4 is like a mix of 1 and 3. He's still pretty cheeky but his wild attitude is toned down significantly. I can't really justify any good lore reasons as to why he's gone back to being a super dork in 4 but at far as marketing the character goes, they saw that people responded well with his DMC3 personality so they decided to work more off of that than his more somber DMC1 personality.

>>336959810
And still, DMC4 will be forever remembered as a mediocre game while DMC3 will be remembered as a great game. Because outside the core combat DMC4 had nothing else to offer. The story is not only complete garbage and uninteresting, you also fight against noname shitters that can't even force Dante to be serious for a single second. While in DMC3 Dante not only has an equal, but he also loses and can't even finish the last boss alone.
>>
>>336959826
I think he was just bored in 4 and trying to have some fun with the situation.
>>
>>336960357
Main story's fine. There was just no fucking game to go with it.

They should have just made the city larger, kept parts of the castle and mixed it with the headquarters, , cut the forest entirely, and done some catacombs shit under the city.

Seriously the forest was so fucking bad. And the lab was a nothing level that for some reason had an enemy type that ONLY spawned there and nowhere else.
>>
>>336960726
The story is fucking shit. No one wants to see the character of the previous game just be some overpowered faggot that has a laugh the entire game and is never serious. How is the player supposed to feel any tension of excitement if the fucking main character just fucks around the entire time.

For Dante the entire game is just some small shit, like some generic work of his office. That's why I want Sparda's story in DMC5. The one demon that raised against all others, betrayed and slaughtered them and sealed himself away for centuries because he became too strong.
>>
>>336959067
Anon, you have shit taste.
>>
>>336961119
But Dante isn't the main character of 4. It doesn't matter if he didn't take things that seriously, in fact that lightens up what would otherwise be too dour of a story.
>>
>>336961740
Yes he is and he completely stole the show and made Nero look like shit once he appeared. The fact that Dante finished all the bosses off and Nero technically didn't even kill a single one makes it even worse. Nero could be not in the story at all and nothing would have changed. His appearance is completely trivial since he didn't accomplish shit. That only enhances how bad the overall story is.

Also since the game has literally no atmosphere there wasn't any need for any lightening up.
>>
Can we finally agree this was the best Dante?
>>
>>336955550
i agree with most of this but the cinematography in dmc3 is top notch and made me enjoy the story
>>
>>336952586
If you have to ask you'll never know.
>>
>>336962139
DMC4's story is something of a mess, yes, but story isn't really the big draw of DMC anyways.

Nero provided a character that was easier to handle than Dante, while having a neat gimmick with his grabby hand, his yamato stand DT, and the sword revving stuff.

Dante is around to bring his gameplay back to the series, except now his flexibility and potential in combat is increased radically by the ability to swap between his DMC3 styles on the fly.

Nero never kills his bosses so that the player can fight them later as Dante, since from what I understand, the second half of the game was rushed as fuck and they couldn't make a second set of bosses and levels just for him.
>>
>>336962139
He's absolutely not the main character, the story isn't about Dante at all except as a supporting character.

There's some atmosphere in the castle, but it was more about the overall tone of the story. After the forest Nero stops messing around, if Dante wasn't there there might not be a single moment of levity from that point on.
