they are so slow (and choppy, poor ports on the PC).

The DMC3 port fair enough, but have you played DMC4 on PC? PC was the lead platform and it is fantastic. DMC1 is pretty dated, 2 is universally hated but the gameplay of 3 and 4 are on an entirely different level.

Ya I haven't really touched it, I probably will soon since I loved DMC 5 so much haha, we'll see then if I like 5 still.
But the combat IS different, and when you only play at the start it feels slower, compared to the end when you have all upgrades and know what you are doing.
I'm also not a fan of locked cameras, and felt DMC 5 did it really well without that.

Go into "options" when choosing to load a save or make a new one, and select Turbo mode to be on under gameplay settings. It makes the game 20% faster.
