Dunno if late, but here it is [video=youtube;HxxP6jlVVGE]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HxxP6jlVVGE[/video] All I have to say is... Move over, Bayonetta.
I just can't wait for the combo videos for the new characters, shit's gonna be tight.

I can't wait for DMC 5 or 6
DMC3 takes place before DMC1 and Vergil doesn't die in it. In the end he's trapped in hell and faces off Mundus, who then defeats him and turns him into his slave (the demon you face in DMC1). You then kill him in DMC1. Nero obviously shares some connection to the sons of Sparda, but we don't know for sure whether he's son of either of the brothers, a long-lost third son of Sparda, or just inherited his powers one way or the other (the "I need more power" quote seems to hint at this). Although considering Nero's age, it's entirely possible that he could have been born before the events of DMC3. It's actually very likely, as the gap between DMC3 and 4 is something like 17-18 years, give or take. If a fan theory doesn't fit, then it's not a plot whole in the series's story - it's just that the fan theory doesn't work.
There's an official Japanese artbook that confirms Vergil is Nero's father.

Wonder if they gave Dante anything new ( god its good to see the old white hair red coat again ) I'm hoping the success of this spurs them on to make DMC5 and hopefully making Dante more centric to the plot again ( possibly bringing Vergil back in some way too ) Personally would love to see Dante get the Sparda sword again and get something aking to the true Devil form he takes vs Mundus in DMC1 ( i fucking loved that game )

For those who haven't been following the game since it was announced, the new features are the addition of Lady (playable in Nero's stages), Trish (Dante's stages), Vergil (playable in every stage), alternate costumes, tweaked controls (your sprint activates almost instantly now), a few new cutscenes for Lady, Trish, and Vergil, and a few updated visual effects.

I lost my save file so I've been replaying through the game. I'm almost finished with DMD and yet I'm still 30k souls shy of the last skill I can purchase. They should have set it up so you would have enough to purchase everything near the end of your first playthrough to begin with imo.

The one thing i actually did like about the reboot is they included Dante's mum in the game more though.
[QUOTE=A Beaver;47889038](your sprint activates almost instantly now)[/QUOTE] Still very happy about this.

I was hoping you could play as any character in any stage now. Seems like they still haven't fixed the most massively huge flaw of the game. Just that alone is making me reconsider buying this.
