DMC5 or DD2


redeems ALL of the shit Capcom has done...ALL OF IT.

But what if it's mobile!?

Would be mega surprised if they announce a Vita title (not a port).

The fact the DD page even mentions DMC and DD2, and then assuming this is not what happens, then that would be one of the meanest things anyone could do. Mean!

That is really strange

I would bet on a new IP

but that name dropping alongside the word "unexpected" is some weird stuff

Since I just wrote about DMC3's DTE in another topic, I'm gonna say that when they're making DMC5, I hope they bring back the Devil Trigger Explosion mechanic, but change it so that instead of it being the same for each weapon, each Devil Arm should have a different effect. Only Rebellion should be the same DTE as in DMC3, although slightly toned down in power. It would be quite interesting and would be an expansion of a concept from a previous game in the series that no other game in the genre has, from my knowledge.

The community guys on that site know less than nothing. They have Gamestop employee levels of knowledge.

Gregaman is probably the only one who would know something.

ULTRA SUPLEX HYPEGASM!

 

[Y2Kev]

I Don't think capcom could make dmc5 and dd2 simultaneously. You'll remember the dmc4 team went on to make DD. There is no staff to make both.

 

[Marcel]

Dragon's Dogma 2 would make me forgive Capcom. It'll probably be something dumb like Lost Planet 4 with no multiplayer, though.

 

[Machinehead]

DD2, DMC5 or something cool on Vita would make me give a shit for Capcom again.

 

[Amir0x]

can capcom even make one next-gen game at a time anymore

 

[IonicSnake]

I'm thinking it's a Street Fighter game but I'm hoping it's either DMC5 or Dragons Dogma 2.

 

[Sesha]

I wouldn't be surprised if the scale of the games they are going to announce aren't that big. It's probably on the level of Revelations 2. So whatever it is, I'm expecting DL only stuff.

ULTRA SUPLEX HYPEGASM!

Doing this is the best. Doing a Buster Suplex three times on these jokers is so gratifying.

 

[Marcel]

I'm thinking it's a Street Fighter game but I'm hoping it's either DMC5 or Dragons Dogma 2.

"Expected game announcement soon"

 

[Anteater]

maybe it's dark void 2

that'd be unexpected

 

[indigo-cyclops]

Wasn't dmc 4 pretty forgettable and disappointing? If it's gonna be like the last 2 DMCs would anyone really want it? If they do bring back the devil may cry series they need to take a serious look at what made the first game and dmc 3 great and make a real effort to get back to the series roots.

I personally enjoyed it but there are many out there who look down on it. Id be fine with a new Capcom developed DMC tho, I have to say.

 

[Sephzilla]

Killing demons with rock and roll = The King

 

[BadWolf]

True but they don't have to make DD from scratch anymore, they can reuse assets ala Monster Hunter.

 

[GuardianE]

They've been seriously quiet for too long. If the announcement here falls flat, then it just affirms all the doom and gloom about Capcom for the past few years.

 

[Marvel]

I miss that Dante ;_; would love DMC5.

 

[Demon Lizardman]

But there will be one.

That's why we have glorious Ninja Theory.

pls no

 

[Sephzilla]

They could theoretically announce both Devil May Cry 5 and Dragon's Dogma 2 simultaneously, but simply say that one will come out before the other. For example;

Devil May Cry 5 - Release date Summer 2015

Dragons Dogma 2 - Release date October 2016

I know I'm totally biased here as a DMC fan but I think DMC5 would be the best good will gesture to their fanbase that isn't related to Mega Man. Yes, Capcom has a few IPs that are sitting in limbo currently and Resident Evil needs to get back to its roots more. But I think a lot of people still have DmC in their memory and kind of saw how long term fans got treated during that. DMC5 = good Capcom image rehab. That and I'm pretty sure Dragons Dogma 2 is happening regardless.

 

[AgentLampshade]

DMC4 was disappointing because it wasn't finished. Imagine what it'd be like if they properly gave Dante his own campaign, bosses and maybe some unlockable styles. And we would finally understand who Nero was and how he fit into the story instead of it being confirmed elsewhere. Capcom seemingly glanced over reactions and decided the best course of action would be to reboot the whole thing, which in turn only made people appreciate DMC4 even more (if I recall, there was a surge in sales when DmC released) and now, 7 years later we finally have a little hope that we can get a true, FULL DMC experience again. Don't take that from us Capcom. Don't you dare.

 

[Xpliskin]

If I had to bet cash, I'd say DMC 5.


A DMC game costs less to develop than a DD game.


Pure guessing though.

Just FYI, RE5 is Capcom's best selling game ever and RE6 is their 3rd best (right behind SF2, might surpass it).

I know. That makes me sad.

 

[Hexa]

I'd hope not. The assets in Dragon's Dogma were crap even for PS3.
They could definitely reuse Deep Down assets though.

 

[BadWolf]

I'd hope not. The assets in Dragon's Dogma were crap even for PS3.

The monster design and animation were hardly crap. The animation especially was just wonderful.

 

[Hellraider]

That's why we have glorious Ninja Theory.

pls no

I'll take another Ninja Theory DMC if I can get DD2 from Itsuno.

 

[Sephzilla]

Monster designs were neat and the animations were good.

Everything else? Eh... If Dragon's Dogma was a person, it would be the type of person that relies on its personality and not its looks.

I'll take another Ninja Theory DMC if I can get DD2 from Itsuno.

No.

I'd rather have no DMC than have another Ninja Theory DmC

 

[GuardianE]

You can have a DD2 made by Ninja Theory.

 

[BadWolf]

Monster designs were neat and the animations were good.

That's the kind of stuff that takes a lot of effort and is what Monster Hunter reuses in their games though.

The areas/world are usually new.

 

[Kyoufu]

I'd rather not, thanks.

I won't lie i got shivers.

 

[Chamber]

Dammit, you guys have me hyped up for a DMC5 announcement.

 

[Sephzilla]

Dammit, you guys have me hyped up for a DMC5 announcement.

I know, I didn't want to get hyped either because it's just a recipe for disappointment. But man, people keep dropping little bits of info that really seem to make everything point in the direction of DMC5. Plus DMC is one of my top 3 favorite franchises ever, so the idea of a new game is almost instant hype anyway.

Spoiler

The only thing better than DMC5 would be a Devil May Cry x Bayonetta game

 

[brandonh83]

Well, it would have been unexpected but now everyone is totally expecting something.

 

[Sesha]

It's gonna be USF4 for current gen consoles. By "unexpected" they mean that no one would expect them to port USF4 after Ono said they couldn't afford to do it.

That's why we have glorious Ninja Theory.

Spoiler

pls no

Capcom has basically "disowned" all of their outsourcing efforts, basically blaming outsourcing for all their console related sales mishaps.

I know. That makes me sad.

Take comfort in that RE5 pretty much rode the wave of hype and goodwill generated by RE4.

 

[BadWolf]

Comfort him with RE6 lol.

 

[Sesha]

Don't blame Capcom. They probably thought Leon alone was the reason why people loved RE4 so much.

 

[GuardianE]

Don't blame Capcom. They probably thought Leon alone was the reason why people loved RE4 so much.

How is that not Capcom's fault?

 

[Sesha]

Because they can't help not knowing what makes a game good.

 

[galvenize]

Can someone post that gif of Dante taunting and owning an enemy?

 

[GuardianE]

You'll have to be more specific.

But I'll just post this one in the meantime:

 

[『Inaba Resident』]

This one?

 

[Astral Dog]

Dont let me down Kobayashi, not you too.

 

[GuardianE]

This one?

That ain't Dante.

 

[『Inaba Resident』]

That ain't Dante.

I know but its the one I see people post the most.

 

[FourMyle]

TBH it seems too soon for another game of DD's scale.
