its not that hard. Even when the style gauge goes away you still have the letter you had before, but this could change in the final version.

Man I am weaksauce. After beating Metroid Prime 3 I decided I'd dig into the Devil May Cry 5th Anniversary Edition I just picked up the other day and try to work my way through the entire series.
I'm only on the second mission and I've already used two yellow orbs
I'd rather not, I wish that I could simply choose game over and load up from my last save then waste these things on basic enemies like puppets and those cackling ghost bitches.
I really don't remember having a hard time with this game when I first played it years ago, so I was either a better gamer or played through on easy auto.

I managed an SS on the ice bosses on my 3rd or 4th go, around the time I started to read how to exceed properly and I've played about 1hr total of DMC games, about 10mins of 1 (I thought it was awful) and 50mins of the demo of 4 (which is awesome)

If anyone is interested, some guy on the GameFAQs board got the Prima guide and posted an assload of information about the game, including weapons and bosses and all that. He even has photos of the guide as proof.

Basically, the stuff I'm interested in are the weapons and gameplay and what he said were:

No other weapons available apart from those we already know.
Dark Slayer style is tied to the Yamato. That means if you're using Yamato, you're using Dark Slayer mode. Also the Yamato is used by hitting the circle button (the "style" button if you will) and Dante doesn't get any new moves for it (compared to DMC3SE Vergil) apart from the new Judgment Cut we've already seen.
If that's really the case, it would appear that you can effectively wield four weapons at once with Dante if you're in Dark Slayer style. Rebellion, Lucifer and Gilgamesh by switching and the Yamato by hitting circle.
Also you play as Dante for seven stages and Nero for about 13 stages. Last boss is fought using Nero.

I'll throw this out there. The lack of extras is a bit sad, but, the guide is from Prima. They aren't the best at finding out the ins and outs, IIRC. lol...
Edit: I hope they are wrong...I want to play as effin Trish.

I had the the same issues when I first started playing DMC1 last week. I got absolutely smashed. Just keep at it and your original skills will prevail. I'm kicking a lot more arse in it now, it just takes some time to adjust to it's old school mechanics.

As I read more into this, I kind of agree with you. At least isn't like (DMC2 spoiler)
riding a motorcycle into the depths of hell.
Edit - As DMC fans nothing will ever make us cringe more then the first game.
Dante holds Trish saying devils never cry.
Edit 2 - Found the Youtube link. DMC1 Spoilers. http://youtube.com/watch?v=obPYsLZwhxE

LTTP, I know, but wow! The demo is amazing! Took me from a "I'll pick this game up sooner or later" to "DAY ONE, BITCH!"

Ugh, that's depressing... ... let's hope prima is just being horrible like this guy keeps saying. Well, there IS a bright spot! At least the real explanation for Nero is better than that FAKE Gamesradar guy's explanation, which made me wanna puke. So... you know, that's something.ElyrionX said:

The sheer schlokiness of it all is half the fun.
It means that the game will have invisible checkpoints throughout the levels that will allow you to continue if you die. They are usually before boss fights or other tough sections of the level. No replaying Mission nine 10 times because that giant dog thing kicks the shit out of you.dirtmonkey37 said:
I agree, a terrible story is a crucial part of any action game.
Dave1988 said:
HAH. Some of those spoilers are.. wow. They're not killing the hype for me in anyway what so ever (I'm holding back on reading all of the stuff (And watching boss battles)), especially since I seriously did expect Capcom to go with some of the listed stuff.
On the other hand, the IGN community is pretty much on a meltdown phase in that topic.

Nero turns out to be the third son of Sparda and not just some special possesion by Nelo Angelo like the other knights, or reincarnation or whatever,

I haven't counted how many times the first boss, lava spider dude, has handed me my ass. I want to punch a bag full of puppies and kittens right now. Go ahead and laugh.
I've figured out what I have to do to beat it, I keep whittling it down to one quarter of its life only to die. Over and over and over. I finally caved and tried the Easy/Auto option and hated it. It does all of your combos for you, dials down the health and damage enemies can deal so far down all the while it dials your health, damage dealing capicity and devil trigger so retardedly high up. It's so...patronizing.
I saved the Auto/Easy on a new file, reset and loaded up my original save file before the boss fight.

I like this method of thinking.
LOL@"story" in DMC games, I guess it was fine art when dante's shop was ravaged by demons in DMC3 and he surfed on one of their bodies while kicking the asses of the other demons and eating pizza at the same time.
Oscar material for sure.
