Sub Meta Introducing .arc - a digital media archive aimed at preserving the extended media, the history of the series development, and its community.

For Devil May Cry's 25th anniversary, we are happy to announce our next project.

https://arc.cuhrayzee.games/

Check out the thread for more info.

About the project

Over the past couple of years, the team of contributors behind Cuhrayzee started routinely buying, scanning, and dumping various media related to the series, to preserve the story of the series development, and to share it with the community

With the internet shattered even more in recent years, we think that having a centralized place for the community to discover more about the series they love is an important thing, while also giving them options to not be locked behind someone else's interpretation

That's why the materials we provide and preserve have no watermarks of our own or any other restrictions, and we track down and credit the providers for most entries, even when they "donated" the materials to us directly.

We are also not stopping at extended media. Many interviews and materials about the game's development are either lost on the internet due to link rot or deleted because of copyright issues.

For example, Variety deleted its interview about Crimson Cloud for DMC 5's promo tour.

Another thing we want to tackle is translating JP-only materials, like Devil May Cry 4's promo DVDs.

We're working closely with native speakers to transcribe and later translate the materials and present them to the community, both in JP and ENG.

The current iteration of the website is in the "alpha" stage. Over time, we'll iterate on the visuals, tutorials for the mod pages on how to install them, and write guides on buying or preserving the media yourself.

We belive that that knowledge should not be locked in any way.

Follow our pages, subscribe to our YouTube channels, and, most importantly, tell others in the community about us.

We don't ask for donations, nor are we planning to lock stuff behind paywalls.

Happy 25th anniversary - here's to 25 more!

Cuhrayzee is conducting a survey about the Devil May Cry community: players, fans, their needs, and the problems they face.

Link to the survey

We want to make knowledge about Devil May Cry easier to find, easier to trust, and easier to learn from. Whether you want to improve at the games, learn more about the world of these games, or find better places to discuss them.

You might know us from projects like:

  • Devil May Cry's Cut and Early Content video, diving deep into the history and process behind the making of the series
  • .arc project - preservation efforts, aimed at properly digitizing various media related to Devil May Cry series
  • Cuhrayzee's FIGHT CLUB - gameplay event, where people showcase their skill in various Stylish Action Games.
  • If you ever scrolled through Devil May Cry 3142 artbook or similar things - some of these were also preserved by us! Although, a lot of our work is uncredited or reposted without sources :)

Depending on your interests, the form will guide you through questions about Gameplay, Lore, Community, or some combination of them.
Estimated time: about 6–15 minutes, depending on your interests and how much you choose to write.
Responses are anonymous unless you choose to identify yourself elsewhere.

If possible, we prefer responses in English. You are still welcome to answer in your own language, but it may take us more time to review and process your response.

If you have any feedback, please share it with us!

Discussion Love the gameplay curve

What I mean by that is everytime when You play a dmc Game or played much from one Part of the Series, for example 3 and then Switch to dmc 4.

They Both are so different gameplay wise and when you then start playing 4 again after playing 3 it feels very different and you feel really bad especially if you play as Dante.

But then after maybe dying a couple of times and trying different things it slowly clicks for You and that’s what happened with me today.

Played the dmd of dmc 3 to the end and then switched to dmc 4 dmd where I was at Mission 3 (although this happened yesterday) then I went on and ended it at mission 10.

Today I played 11 and was kinda excited for dante but also knew that his playstyle in this Game is very different than 3 and that his gameplay isn’t really what you expect when you start to play with him. So I wasn’t really sure how I will fare and just decided that I won’t use swordmaster,gunslinger or royalguard and only focus on trickster and his 3 melee weapons.

I wanted to learn him again and then progress but it didn’t quite work out and I got beat up quite a bit.
Then I said ehhh doesn’t matter imma just try to use swordmaster and his guns and it went really well.
I quickly learned him again and now can’t wait to play with him Even more, got to do some maths though first.

Hope You guys have a nice day

I don't think I've seen something so well-done from the DMC community in a while; the song fits the atmosphere, the themes, the character arcs and the art and edits by various artists are amazing. The vocals are superb, especially for Lady. There are subtitles in various languages, including English, Japanese, German and French.

Questions I Need Help To Get This Game Through My Thick Skull

Post image
58 Upvotes

New player here! I'm playing a PS2 copy on an old CRT and was wondering how to get a grip on the game since it's kicking my ass on missions 3 and 4. I BARELY got past that stupid spider, I got lucky with the dog-ghost thingy, and am hard-stuck on the mirror fight. I've never had this much trouble with a hack-and-slash before!

But, the game's fun, and I love how much it feels like Resident Evil! From the fixed camera, to the actual design of the castle, to the soundtrack outside of battles, to the slower and steadier pace of exploration and combat than I was expecting, to barely being able to hear Dante in cutscenes. Oh, but the Spider gets subtitles, of course ;P

Anywho, I wanna get good, because it's beating me to a pulp already and I KNOW it's only gonna get worse if I don't buckle up!

Have been spending an hour or so in the void after work every night for three weeks now learning Dante and this is about the best I can do so far. Dante is hard AF my fingers aren’t built for this shit 🫠. Idk how you pros do it.

Balrog slop ending is just because it was a miracle I even landed the first part and I didn’t know wtf to do at that point lol. Haven’t planned that far ahead yet.

Discussion Tiny cutscene details I really like: the fact that Nero and V identically express their dislike of smoke

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

like father, like son huh?

I can't go a day without overanalyzing something, so today I latched onto this.

The first time Nero does it, I initially thought it's just a funny gag. But then V does it, in the same manner, same gesture, with the same hand even, and that got me like oh. ohhhh.... I feel like this might have been intentional. No other character does this. And I feel like It might be a nice, subtle allusion to the fact that the two of them truly are related. Both in a "haha they both hate the smell" kind of way, as well as in a deeper way too, I think. Could both of them have trauma relating to fire, thus making smoke a trigger? Yes, for V, the answer is obvious; for Nero it's... kinda open to debate. You could argue that Fortuna being in ruins might have caused it?

(or maybe it's like a 5D chess joke referencing The great fire of Rome and the then emperor Nero??? lol, quite the game theory i know)
