Let's go western.

New Trailer for Devil May Cry.
Made more Western because of DMC4 sold poorly.

So thoughts? I'm curious cause going more western to increase sells just seems kind of like a bad idea or maybe I'm still just horrified by when Persona was westernized.
Plus seeing as this is a gaming forum some of have had to play one of DMC games at some point.

Almost as stupid as making a brand new hero who looks strikingly similar to the original one...

If they just change his name to something else, then I'd say this game is okay.

Wait what?

No sword, no white hair?
This is just wrong, what group is this supposed to appeal to?
Dante's look in DMC4 was great, more mature and beardy. Why change it again?

I never liked DMC. But it looks like this is just appealing to people that hated DMC.

What turns me off is that this Dante reminds me too much of that main character from No More Heroes, and the forced graffiti logo. As long as the gameplay's as good as the first 3 were, I don't see any real problem.

Increasing sales by making it more "western" will probably NOT increase sales.
The main reason why the Devil May Cry series was so popular was because of it's flashy, overblown style.
This still looks flashy and overblown, but in an entirely different, alienating style.

Plus, I think the prospect of rebooting an entire franchise (a 9 year old one, at that) because of shitty sales in ONE product is phenomenally retarded.

Hey, it worked for Bomberman, right?

This is capcom's other over the top beat-em-up/whatever type game. Looks interesting.
