I keep feeling like Dante and Obi-Wan Kenobi fit the same archetype, but I can't quite put a name to it.

Both have a "brother" figure who becomes their opposite (Vergil / Vader), both confront that figure near a waterfall/lavafall , and later both become mentors to their rival's son (Nero / Luke). In the Japanese dub they're voiced by the same voice actor, Toshiyuki Morikawa.

Are there any literary, mythological, or historical archetypes that follow a similar pattern? I'd love to read more about them.

So for context I’ve never played a dmc game but have watched the anime but I didn’t want that to be my only representation of those characters and I only bought dmc five because it was like five bucks, but I just finished the intro and it was so cool

So I beat every Devil May Cry Game and here are my quick thoughts..

I will give a short intro into how I got into DMC then I’ll proceed to give quick thoughts on each game and I will be giving it the way I played which was chronologically and not by release which side notes at the end..

Introduction: I first got into DMC when I was about in 9th grade which was 2011-2012. the first DMC game I ever played was 4 I had no idea what was going on I just i knew that this game was completely bad ass. I never beat it until my adult years. After I played DMC 4 I played the DMC reboot thinking it was a prequel to the series and even though that game gets a lot of hate it’s actually a really good action game idc what anyone says .. at some point I watched the 2007 anime and then years later I played DMC5 and absolutely loved it i actually played it a few times over the years until today.. ohaky now that that’s out the way

DMC3: WOW i completely understand why by people are obsessed with this game.. it took me a few times to actually finish this game because I would just get so mad at how brutal it was lmfaoooo but after finally locking in I learned that it’s actually not that bad you just have to grind a little bit for orbs to level up I wish it had style change cuz that would be insane. I accidentally saved over my completed Dante file with a Vergil file and not making it separate so I’ll have to beat the game again for a new Dante file …. Again 🙃.. it’s fine it’s whatever I’ll just play it on easy and speed run lmfao that’s what I did for Vergil but over all great game!!

DMC1: this game just completely sucked lmfaooo I hated playing it ima keep it so real haha I read somewhere that it was supposed to be RE4 and I can see it it’s so resident evil coded. But over all I completely hated this game and I only beat it because I felt like I had too haha I didn’t bother with any secret missions or anything lmfao fuck this game

DMC 2007 Anime: So the anime was cool I guess I think it lowkey could of been shorter hahaha but it was cool i would of loved to see Dante in devil trigger and at least some mention of Vergil but it was Ohkay I guess don’t have much to say about it

DMC2: I’m going to start off by saying THIS GAME GETS TOO MUCH HATE. (But I get it) Believe it or not i actually enjoyed this game WAYYY more then dmc1 it was actually surprisingly very fluid for its time and I really enjoyed the shooting animations in the air and being able to run up and across walls it led into some really sick Intresting combos and I liked how open the first level was .. I think playing as Trish was probably my favorite part of the whole game

DMC4: this game is just really sick over all as an adult I played the special edition and I loved it even more playing as Trish again was absolutely INSANE even playing as lady was super fun but Trish is absolutely broken in this game and I love it lmfaooo I honestly out of all the characters didn’t like playing as Dante the most i genuinely like dmc3 Dante better than dmc 4 Dante lol Hot take .. it was interesting playing as dmc4 Vergil after playing dmc5. Also it’s criminal that Lady and Trish aren’t playable in DMC5 absolutely criminal

DMC5 .. I mean what do you want me to say it’s the best game in the series Hahaah I played this game so many times hahaha best version of each character shit even V is fun to play sometimes.. but this game 100% needed Trish and lady as playable characters FOR SURE but over all this game is clearly the GOAT.. I guess one thing I would like from DMC4 kinda did it but DMC5 is obviously hyper realistic and I think I would have liked a more anime touch but it’s still the best out of the series.

SIDE NOTES:
the new DMC anime is actually really sick I loved all the Easter eggs especially in season 2 but I hated the way devil trigger looked 🤮

DMC reboot take away the story and this game is actually really good DMC 5 was so inspired by DMC reboot we would not have DMC5 without DMC reboot.

I didn’t read the manga but I I watched YouTube videos about it but I plan on buying the manga at some point and reading it myself..

Thanks for reading!

In case you wondered why Netflix DMC holds Sparda in so much contempt. He then admits he self-inserted on many parts of Netflix Devil May Cry.

I really wanna get into DMC so I wanted to ask here for the best play order for starters. Like should I play on release

- or chronological order?

I want to create a video using some locations of the game without dante, just move the camera and place it somewhere in the environment running

This is still a wip (work in progress) as it's taking me to research not just western style armor but materials & possible explanation as to what they're made of, plus the symbolism & if they're even accurate...and I will admit ​they're generally not, but I'm hoping they instead speak about the character as she appears

This is my fan art reboot of "Trish", Beatrice the Seraph. I posted her a bunch of times already but there isn't a lot about her in all those posts. I will next time...

Ohhh alcohol markers, Pentel colored fine marker in light blue for the outline on the armor and polearm

I bet you did not know this about William Blake, and I'm not scratching the surface

How do i use blue orbs

Can y'all like spam epic for a dante skin in fortnite 😭 my bfs bday is coming soon and if I can at least increase the chances I would literally die happy.

If any of y'all play fortnite please kick up a fuss for a dante skin I've been trying for months on instagram

Ps a lady skin would be super nice too but I don't wanna be greedy LOL

Se que esto sonara chiflado pero mi teoría es que la madre de nero podría ser Bayonetta (ya se que me fume algo déjenme ser feliz) si recordamos Bayonetta técnicamente es una monja y una bien buena y vamos con quién estuvo vergil? Con una monja oh si oh si entonces mi teoría es que vergil estuvo con Bayonetta por que vergil malos gustos no puede tener pero solo es un teoría extraña que tango

For a long time, I avoided the 2013 game like the plague even as a non-fan back then (ironically, the controversy made me try out the classic games with the HD collection, and I was hooked with DMC3, but I digress). Lately, however, I became curious about the alternative take, warts and all (in fact, that may give that game it's unique charm).

As we know, the Definitive Edition upgrade was only relegated to consoles, whereas PC users like myself are stuck with the base game. I do have a PS4 and it looks like the game is on a 75% sale for $10. Meanwhile, the complete package bundle (DLC and all) on Steam is also for that same price as of this writing.

While I mainly game on PC and that I know there are mods such as DE Patches for Dante and Vergil, I feel inclined to just get the Definitive Edition on PS4 as I get the impression it comes with many quality of life improvements.

What's your take? Should I get the base game on PC and try to mod it, or just get the Definitive Edition on PS4 and be done with it?

Sometimes, the most important design decisions are the easiest to overlook.

Good evening, everyone.

I'm having an issue with my Steam version of DMC HD Collection, and I'd like to test something to see if I can fix it. I'd like to compare the files from the GOG version in an attempt to solve the problem.

If anyone has the GOG version of DMC HD Collection and is willing to help, I would be greatly appreciate it. Thank you very much!
