On the other hand, the other day I was thinking of the Devil May Cry games, and now I reflect on Ninja Theory's taking over the series, and I am really not looking forward to Dante's new look. It's almost like they combined Edward Cullen and Adam Lambert, and honestly, I know not one single person who digs that kind of thing, and it just doesn't have the essence of Dante. Dante looks like he's ready to kick some ass for every previous game, which were ones Capcom had developed, but now he just looks like a total pussy. I plan on sending the company a serious complaint explaining why I wouldn't want this character model, and I'm quite sure other fans of the series feel the same. I will buy the game, though, regardless of a new character model, as that is not of large importance, but I do feel it takes away from the experience. If at least the voice acting, story, and gameplay do the series justice, I'm set to go. I'd dock points for the pussy called "Dante", however, as Dante is meant to be a total badass. Unfortunately, I also don't have high hopes for the other points I look for than the experience, as Ninja Theory seems to overestimate themselves. In my opinion, their games have been rather shitty, especially the more recent releases, including Enslaved: Odyssey To The West which is a cliche action game with an even more cliche dystopian future type of story. But, back to the main point: the experience; It doesn't feel like Devil May Cry if it doesn't feel like Dante. And the experience is a HUGE factor as to why I love certain games. And lack of experience is exactly why games like Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters are my least favourite of the series' installments. And some of this is highly suspect of other companies taking over the series and attempting to do it justice, but then falling flat on their face.
And so, now that my anger has been expressed publicly without going all ragetastic, good-bye and have a good day, everyone!
