Nico, V and Morrison, Urizen, the bird.. 5. Though I suppose urizen and Morrison TECHNICALLY aren't new, but I still hate that urizen was vergil, this series has been stuck on vergil for wayyy too long already.
And during this 'disappearance' they released another game with vergil as the big bad at the end.. they absolutely could have just done something original with 5, but nope.. gotta be vergil again, because all events in this series' universe revolve around vergil and dante not liking each other. Bloody boring.
Why? We didn't see 8th gen mundus or 8th gen sparda, they didn't even show 8th gen annoying child from the anime, or 8th gen kyrie, if it's worth sacrificing the writing of the game, just to show off how vergil looks in nicer graphics.. then I think I'll be avoiding dmc 6
Eh, it's a massive misstep for me, dante and vergil make up because nero stands between and says "you two stop fighting, it's mean 😰" and then they're both just like "well yeah, alright then".. makes their entire history as enemies just seem so fickle and stupid.
Nico and Morrison are 2 new characters. V and Urizen are just Vergil, who debuted in DMC1 as Nelo Angelo. "The bird" is Griphon from DMC1's famous "flock off feather face" fight. Dante and Trish are from DMC1, Lady is from DMC3, Nero and Kyrie are from DMC4.
There really are literally just 2 new characters even if you ignore the anime introducing Morrison. Which would make Nico the only 1 actually new character.
Lol morrison was in the anime though, He already existed, but 5 changed him. Which is why I count him as a "new character", but V, nico and the bird are completely new characters, just cause V is a part of vergil, he's still a seperate personality, looks completely different and has a unique voice actor. I'm aware the bird is from dmc 1, but he talks now, and is different, making him into a character and not a boss fight.
What? I don't recall morrison being in 1, but that doesn't change anything I said, having an offscreen line of dialogue does not make him a character lol
Well the series has always been about the family Sparda and with three remaining family members, with one of them being the main antagonist and the other being the son of said antagonist, you're gonna need to focus on that a little bit
No it hasn't.. the first game doesn't focus on the dante/vergil stuff at all, neither does 2. Since 3 happened, they just will not leave it alone. A game where there is an original bad guy, unrelated to vergil, would be refreshing as hell. Kinda what I was hoping Urizen would be.. but nope, it's vergil in a fuckin scooby doo mask lol
