What if this game is actually really awesome or something? Anybody here play it and know one way or the other?

I liked DMC1 and 3 but I haven't been following this game at all.
I take it there is a rough consensus that it's going to be shitty?

You mean like a place where people aren't allowed to post anything but positive thoughts and impressions? I'm... not sure you have the right forum.
i am in no way implying that. it is what it is. dont start any shit!

I don't understand how he got from DD to SSS in what amounts to basically one good hit.
Makes me think I don't get some of the mechanics.
I know that the rating doesn't tick down with time like it used to (and I'm fine with that), but I don't understand how he got to that rating with what he did in the first place.

You can use this thread, right here.

Im no fan in this new direction of the series, but this OT is disgrace for a DMC title.
OP might find it funny, but If you couldn't do a good job, you should of handed it to someone who could.

AKA, Ninja Theory's forums.
It's not a DMC title. It's a DmC title.
I think he means all the those people who pretended like NT could have ever done anything right by them in the first place. And I'm convinced there are a lot of people like that.
The purist tirades just strike me as silly. For whatever reason if this game wasn't called Devil May Cry they would have no problem with it and they probably play a ton of action games without being so picky about them but because they care about intellectual property attached to a given game (for whatever reason) they howl and yell and make silly .gifs if they don't feel the IP matches what they think the brand should represent.

ezekial can make the second OT thread, once all the DMC fans have bitched and whined through a total of 400 pages.

shots fired.
Honestly, this OT was intended for people who indulge in mocking this game. Which is just unfair.

What the hell qualifies as a genuine review? Metacritic-approved?
I recommend devilmaycry.org. Say anything negative and you'll be blown off as a guy upset about white hair.
Why didin't he make the first?
Why didin't you make the OT then?

Well, there are a few select games every so often that a very vocal majority of this site hates on at every single turn. Currently Tomb Raider is one of those games, this looks like the second.

guys people are posting negative things about our videogame on the internet. all the money we spent on reviews might not actually help us now

IIRC once you demon dodge at the right time (just before an enemy attack lands), Dante glows red to signal the fact that you did it successfully. This glow gives you an attack boost. Using any move, especially one that hits multiple enemies (in that gif he hit two) and is powerful, will result in a jump in style ranks. While I wasn't able to replicate the SSS, I was able to jump from like a D to an A. :lol Either way it's ridiculous.

wait, is this real?
Not really. There are plenty of less serious opening post OT's that do just fine. Look at Ninja Gaiden II's, for example. An OT doesn't have to be an opus.
Maybe I don't understand the context. Can someone explain to me why it is "embarrassing" for a dev to express happiness at the game being well received thus far?

It's not that hard to understand. Longtime Devil May Cry fans were eager for a new installment in the franchise. This is pretty far off from what a lot of us wanted.
Definitely a lot of overreactions to the game, though.
I already made the demo thread. If anyone should be making a DMC thread, it should be Dahbomb.
RE6 was even more universally hated (even game critics couldn't support it) and the OT still ended up mostly positive after a week.
edit: Wait, the mod is actually letting it rock with a single asterisk change?

What's the deal with the "no genuine review" comment?

The reception this game has gotten makes me wonder if Sucker Punch would have gone through the same thing had they went with the character redesign in inFamous 2 like they originally planned.

Nope. An Italian website put up a review before the game had actually been sent to websites. At that time review code of the game had only been sent to magazines. So either the website, reviewed the game without playing or got it illegally.
A genuine review is a review that has a score of 89% or higher, or a review Capcom payed for.

I've looked around and Steam and GMG only give you the costume DLC for free. Which is exactly why I'm waiting for it to get cheaper, thank you, Capcom.
It still wouldn't be acknowledged by the faithful. Just put a bunch of try hards on ignore if it's really that big of a deal.
One that didn't come from a site that wrote a review based on nothing.

Ah, so it's tied to a special counter bonus. I actually like that. It looks like it's too generous with the ranks, though.
I never got highest ranks in any DMC level because I'm not a very good player, and that's fine with me.
Easy victories that are handed to you aren't real victories. Which is not a big deal in itself, plenty of games do that and it helps appeal to scrubs - but it robs the people who are good enough to get SSS on their own of the satisfaction, and that's bullshit.

I want to know this too >_>;
Seriously though, I think this was the only way the OT could have been done.
Except this thread is sort of a joke. And it's not even remotely tasteful like the DA2 one. Ugh.

I disagree. The OT isn't remotely funny.
I honestly expected he or Dahbomb would. Oh well.
Good Lord, that avatar is hideous. I know it's been there for a while, but... *shudders*
