Hey, who's this guy...? Oh, it's fucking DANTE. What do you reckon about the re-design?

I could go for that. Ha, maybe Dante was egotistical enough to name his son after himself. This could be one of those spin-offs which take place way in the future after the main series. They haven't numbered this DMC, for one thing.Nieroshai said:

I'm surprised. I just want to know why he looks like that. I mean I'm not complaining. I'm just...curious. Like what Sucker Punch did to Cole on E3 this year. Many people complained and wanted the old Cole back and SP decided to bring back the old Cole.
I don't see anything western here. Unless they based "western" on the meth addicts hiding under bridges. He doesnt look feminine either. He could pass as a Rage-virus victim though.
this is the nature of capcom i think. rehash old ideas and butcher the story line then simply make excuses later.... maybe in sequels. *coughs*resident evil 5*coughs*
REGARDLESS, Devil May Cry 4 was wildly popular despite all of its shortcomings. they even found a way to justify Nero's resemblance to Dante if anyone was paying attention. Resident Evil 4+5 both kicked ass despite their dismissal of common sense. but these are also the people who let us duct tape chain saws to the front of a dirt bike. Crazy just works.
Have faith, fanboys. Have faith.

No, it's not sarcasm. A game dev (or an artist, or a musician) should only work to one muse, themselves. Fans never really know what they want anyway. They're scared of change, this is why people freaked out when they saw the slightly more colorful screenshots of Diablo 3. What did Blizzard tell them? Tough. This is how the game's going to look, and I doubt it's going to hurt their sales. This is why people derided Zelda: Wind Waker. Cut to a couple of years later and people are lamenting the fact that nintendo turned it's back on Celda.Eduku said:
If the fans are really that genuinely bothered by the new direction of the series (which is amounting to a FUCKING HAIR STYLE), they can not buy the game, but somehow I doubt this shallow criticism will get very far once the fans realize that yes, this is still going to be more or less the same DMC they know and love (even if Dante now reminds them of the highschool guy in the band that stole their girlfriend).
So yes. I am completely serious. Anyone who gives ultimate decision to the fans is doomed to stagnate. That goes for games, bands, artists, anything.
I think he's alright. First I was pissed off about the fact that he doesn't have white hair... that's sorta Dantes thing. However, after a close look I think he does. As far as I can tell, his hair is simply dyed.
Other then that, I think it's alright. It doesn't look like Dante at all, I LOVED the other games (1 and 3 in particular) to death so I really want to like this. However, when I look at him, that's not Dante.

That's terrible. TERRIBLE!
I'm gonna' go weep for one of my favorite franchises. Give the game back to the damn Resident Evil/Capcom people!

This just says to me, "Hm...let's make a completely new franchise and tack the DMC name onto it so it will sell. That's a great idea! We'll call it a reboot, and no one will ever tell the difference!" In other words...I feel like the company's calling us fans idiots.
And as many times as I've tried to convince myself otherwise...that looks like a lesbian. Not Dante. Cool character design, but NOT DANTE.

And that's why I emailed them about an hour ago. Hopefully Ninja Theory views their prospective customers in the same way as Sucker Punch.WanderingFool said:Well, fan feedback cause them to change Cole from Infamous 2.
Left/Infamous 1 Right/Infamous 2
and brought back the original look (to a point)
So maybe if enough people ***** about this, we'll get this back.
I'm fine with bringing in a new character, but this Dante is just bad, they even gave him a tentacle-sword thing. I'm over close ranged weapons that stretch or are on chains by now; unless Strider gets a sequel then they can work it into the gameplay, or not. The biggest continuity problem with this, isn't Dante supposed to be immortal and have wounds that regenerate, how did he get the scars?
I don't mind if they change the and Dante a bit but this is really overdoing it. He looks nothing like Dante.
And this is supposed to be his younger years? Wasn't that DMC 3? He was pretty young there. How much younger can he be here without becoming a little kid.
I'll probably buy it just to see how it is but I'll pretend that's Dante's son or something.
