Zitat:
- Will this turn out to be like DMC2?
Nope. Itsuno stated that it will be a powered up DMC3. For all those DMC3 fans out there, you have nothing to worry about.
- Powered up DMC3? What does that mean?
Well for starters it means (according to Itsuno and Kobayashi) that they will be taking the things that made DMC3 great and expanding on them to make them even better.
- Itsuno(Developer for DMC4) mentioned more accessible freedom with air-combat. Giving the game's combat system and advancing it into flight. (possible indication of more primary focus for Dante's demon form) Hopefully something ZOE2-ish. Also the possibility that they're trying to make beating the hell out of your enemies just as stylish as beating the hell out of them on the ground.
- The next thing mentioned is that not only can you level up Dante in a set path (which at this point, is commonplace in action games), but you can also assign certain attacks to whatever button input, commands you'd like. For those that forgot, on the Capcom Magazine they released in Japan (I assume it was with Famitsu) Kobayashi mentioned in ease and option of control. To which, obviously assumed -- you can mix and match various inputs together for complete customization. You create your own style -- is what it seems they are getting at. Instead of selecting pre-determined ones.
- Hideaki Itsuno and Kobayashi have also stated
"Devil May Cry 4 will feature more weapons, maneuvers, enemies, locations, music, and cut scenes than all the previous releases combined. It is also being billed as being the longest release yet". So yes, he said more enemies and more bosses and yes, that means from all the previous releases combined.
- What can we expect in the unlockables department?
We won't know until the game is released but I'm sure there are a few things that can be expected. Since DMC3 had alot of unlockable content I assume it will be the same for this one but with more than the last game.
- Wait a minute..........VERGIL!?!?!?!? Will he be playable with more moves and abilities?!?!?!?
Vergil is an extremely popular character. Capcom knows that Vergil has an large fanbase that's just as big as Dante's, so I wouldn't be surprised if he is once again an unlockable character. Also the DMC4 staff and Capcom also love Vergil so the chances of him being in this game are even greater.
In DMC3: SE they added Vergil do to fan demand. There goal was to make him play differently from Dante. He wasn't as easy to master but when mastered he offered a truely different and excting experience. He may not have felt like a really fleshed out character but the tradeoff for that was that when mastered it wouldn't really matter. However, since he was still more or less an experiment, Itsuno will probably take in all the fan feedback and rework Vergil from there. Afterall, he did say that he and his team really like Vergil. But that's only "if" he's an unlockable character. We'll know when the game is released.
Game Location and story info
- The location of the story has been mentioned to be in a winter/snowy climate and that both Dante and Vergil are being specifically dressed for this occasion. It's quite possible that either both Trish and Lady could make appearances or a new female lead could be brought in to keep the 'tradition' going
- Dante is said to be older in this installment then he was in DMC1 also Itsuno said he liked that Solid Snake himself was older too. What does this mean? Well he said Dante will appear to be more rugged too. So Itsuno said Dante will support a beard sometime in the game. Wait, a beard? Well a beard, a soulpatch, a goatee, just something.
- Who will be appearing in this game?
Dante of course. Vergil as both himself and Nelo Angelo have been shown in concept arts(read below) for this game. Trish and Lady has also appeared in them as well. However, Kobayshi has stated that they aren't sure if they want any of the female characters to return or if they will continue with the whole "Dante has a new leading lady in each game" theme. We won't know if past girls or a new girl will appear until the official trailer debuts at the Tokyo Game Show in September. However, it will please Vergil fans to know that as the concept art is released, they keep showing off designs for Vergil. Itsuno also stated that Vergil is a popular character and that members of his staff really like him. So take that for what it's worth. That combined with he fact he is in some of the DMC4 concept art could mean something.
