Do I need to play Unchained X to understand the newest movie? It looks bad.

Nah, you can just read a summary. Even if you did need to play it I wouldn't wish that hell upon even my enemies.

I've literally got nothing better to do on a Saturday evening, my dude.

[quote]Which is my biggest beef with a lot the shit that get's thrown DmC's way. I don't any of the Devil May Cry games are 'great' 2 of them aren't even good. But the fact that a perfectly playable game like DmC gets its asshole torn out because their favourite mastrabatory cringe death metal cover shit one liner 'laid back' bad ass has turned into a slightly more anti-social masturbatory cringe alternative metal badass who swears.

It really highlights how sad it is that musty neckbeards 'related' to the original Dante enough to get mad when they altered him oh so slightly.

Dante is everything the average video game nerd and also classic metal fan wants to be:

Eats pizza but has a perfect 6 pack, a loner but somehow liked by everyone, and gets to fuck someone who looks exactly like his mom.

Dante is like the 90s 'tude personified except he came out after the 90s had ended and somehow managed to trick people into thinking he was cool. And what's more, it wasn't even until DMC 3 (you know, the first GOOD one) that he was actually the dumb wise cracking shitheel that people associate with the character - DMC 4 had to follow suite. DMC 1 Dante was just more plainly generic and playing to the people that think badass longcoats are the pinnacle of cool guy shit. 

DmC is not great but it is absolutely on the same level as the original series in terms of main character. New Dante is just the character holding up a mirror to the fans. It's easy for people to look at the "FUCK YOU" scene and be like "Oh my god so cringe why" but you show those same people scenes where the Jester from 3 makes penis metaphors or Dante doing the matador shit in DMC 4 and they'll be like "IT'S INTENTIONAL IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE CRINGE FUNNY!" 

DmC was just weebs being weebs.
