I'm not a huge fan of DmC music, but DMC5 needs to ditch using the same battle theme all the time...
Basically this. I mean come on the DMC3 trailer, every DMC fan would get hit in the feels.
Hell yes.
Preferably some dynamic music.
*Default battle theme.
*"You're getting wrecked" theme. Kicks in at low health.
*"You are in the zone" theme, kicks in at A rank+.
*"GOD DAMN STYLISH" theme, kicks in once SSS rank has been achieved.
Also music transitions during boss phase changes.
Imagine fighting Vergil in the final fight of DMC5, you take down his life bar to 0... he gets back up one last time with a full health bar going into Desperation Devil Trigger mode and the classic DMC3 Vergil theme song kicks in from this final fight in DMC3. Kinda like what is happening here (Spoilers for final fight in Dark Souls 3).
For those that don't know, in that final phase the piana theme from the final boss fight of Dark Souls 1 kicks in... one last time.
A single combat theme per character could still work, but incorporating dynamic elements would definitely help. Dynamic layers based on style and health, as well as only having the actual theme play in closed-off combat rooms instead of starting up for every minor enemy (with the latter either using a combat variation of the environmental ambience or a stripped-down, instrumental version of the regular combat theme, like in MGR) would go a long way towards making things less stale. One or more dedicated themes for specific regular enemies like Blitzes would help as well.
give me char specific battle themes like dmc1 for regular battles but also a lot of them
the sparda themes are easily the best part of that char 'cuz they are super good and almost redeem how stupid he looks

Damn right.
A dynamic soundtrack, or at least dynamic battle themes, is an absolute must after DmC. Not having it would be a pretty depressing state.
Also, Dead Rising 4 has leaked some more and it looks decent.
I'm just teasing.

After the multiple fiascos throughout the week, I'm not biting until someone confirms several sources anymore, even from GAF. We only have a few days anyway.

We will know by tmw since that is when all the main conferences are... and its most likely MH related (didn't verendus tease about this a long time ago?)
It's probably the PS4 Monster Hunter game Verendus talked about or Deep Down.
That's something at least, I would be down for that.
Capcom might actually deliver on their promise of going full offensive this year.
Three major titles + possibly more SF5 is more than I can remember Capcom showing at E3 since, I dunno. 2012? 2007? None of those are DMC5 or RE2make, but ignoring my own preferences, it's still pretty good.
"Today... At the edge of our hope, at the end of our time, we have chosen not only to believe in Platinum games, but in Itsuno.
Today there is not a man nor woman in here that shall believe alone. Not today.
Today we face the non-believers that are at E3 and bring the BELIEVE to them!
Today, we are BELIEVING in DMC5!!!"

Well, now I feel motivated.

I knew learning to make gifs (and general photoshop skills) would come in handy one day.
Well at least the speech resulted in the release of this teaser:

Doesn't do much for me (not really into Beserk, but never really gave it a shot).. I kind of wish we got a a Musou (or w/e it is) of Hellsing...

Man, even Quake beat DMC5 to the punch.
And that's an interesting way of introducing a Berserk game. I'm not into the series myself but I thought it was more about chopping guys and less about naked chicks being held by tentacles.

That was a very strange promo indeed especially when it's technically a massive spoiler too. Then again it's Tecmo Koei so they probably wanted that sexual intrigue.
And the series has both a lot of violence and sexual situations. Though at its heart it's a character driven, world building story seeped in dark fantasy.

I see.
I've always heard how great the series is, and since the new game is coming up I might actually give this series a try. I think I have the original anime somewhere so I should probably start with that.
I don't see it as too much of an issue - Berserk is known for its lighthearted, titillating fanservice elements, after all; and Koei Tecmo's own proficiency in that area is self-evident. Adapting that scene and headlining the game's advertising with it just means they fully understand and respect the series' tone and characters.
Except that the scene in question is anything but that.

Huh? Capcom won't hold a conference if that's what you are asking. For their new games we should watch MS and Sony's pressers.
On the show floor, but the actual expo doesn't open until tomorrow.

Speed is kinda off on the gif. Maybe it's my browser but it's very sluggish.Here you go folks.

Also you should probably photoshop some DMC characters in the crowd especially on that close up of the main cast.
Exactly what I was thinking about. The Sony conference hasn't been leaked completely, so there's still a good chance for DMC5 to be announced during their conference. Besides, DMC used to be a Sony exclusive, so a DMC5 announcement is more likely during their conference rather than Microsoft's conference anyway.

Capcom released an announcement trailer for dead rising , so maybe DMC 5 trailer at Sony conference?

I have way more confidence in Itsuno than platinum right now, wth is going on there.. Hell even Kamiya has been hit or miss lately.

Was hoping to see RE7 but I guess we have to wait till Sony's presser.
For what it's worth, DR4 looked cool.

Very likely. It shows from time to time.

Hypest part of Dark Souls 3 was when it turned out one of the bosses has exceed. So good. That alone warrants Nero's inclusion in a sequel.
