Destructoid - Ninja Theory talks overhauls and backlash.
DmC: Devil May Cry has been controversial to say the least. Ever since Capcom announced a new game, developed by Ninja Theory and starring a redesigned Dante, fans have been furious, declaring this a grand travesty of the highest order.
Devil May Cry 5 surpasses 10 million sales as Netflix animated series drives major surge in franchise popularity.
It's been six years since Capcom dropped Devil May Cry 5, but it's still more than worth replaying in 2025 thanks to its rich gameplay.
Because the anime is on Netflix and we gotta ride that DMC in the news again wave.
It’s been sitting in my backlog for a while now. One of the first games I wanted to try for this current gen due to the long load times of previous gen. I’ll get around to it soon!
One of the best, stylish, and fun action slasher on the system. You definitely should get to it, as soon as you can.
The DMC5 team went on to make Dragons Dogma 2, the DMC director (3,4,5) left capcom to make an action game at another studio and the rumor is that a DMC remake is next...so i wouldn't hold my breath on DMC6.
Everytime its on sale I think about buying it but never do. I only played the orginal and somr of 3 so I guess that's part of it.
"Introducing Muse, a new kind of generative AI model that lets you play and create. From developer ideation to one day supporting game preservation, Muse holds potential to unlock new possibilities." so says Microsoft
Absolutely slimy to use game preservation as a thinly-veiled excuse to continue peddling generative AI garbage. 😡
MUSE
Massive Unmitigated Suspension for Employees.
Lets get this straight. When they say its to asisst creators, they mean assist executive managment. Tell me this, if companies stop paying real people to do real work, who is going to be able to buy anyone else's AI generated products in the first place?
You're definitely preaching to the choir. If you read my own version of the news (it's in the alt sources), it's one of the few times I took the fuc*ing gloves on. I was pissed all day after reading this crap.
Microsoft's latest push into mediocrity and billions wasted. I do wonder if Microsoft will eventually meet the same fate as Intel.
They need to replace Xbox execs with generative AI. It'll do less damage than Phil and the gang for sure
> a first of its kind generative AI model trained on Ninja Theory’s multiplayer battle arena game, Bleeding Edge
Yikes
This is a "Coming soon" from their gaming copilot thingy they're so proud of https://www.youtube.com/wat...
Dunno, feels and looks awful to me
And they didn't explain how they're planning to preserve older games, just some world salad
> To imagine that beloved games lost to time and hardware advancement could one day be played on any screen with Xbox is an exciting possibility for us
This doesn't explain anything. How can they run the older games without hardware it's tied to? Magic?
Whole article actually feels like a world salad galore. Did they use AI to write this?
P. S.: Calling it «Muse» is disgusting.
At Xbox we shit on our employees and our customers. Now who is going to buy this nearly no effort game?
Oh look, another DmC article by the biased fat ass.
"finessing":
Stop making him smoke
Give him white hair and red jacket transformation
Give him a patch of white hair
Making him act like Dante
Yes, they have "finessed" him alright.
And it's funny how Ninja theory thinks they need to explain a gameplay part of DMC where doors are sealed off. THAT IS GAMEPLAY. If your going to try to look for a reason behind why a door is sealed off when demons appear during gameplay sessions, then how about finding a reason for why your version of Dante has a "Devil trigger" and notice " " where he has white hair and RED JACKET.
Explain that mother fuckers. Oh yeah - Sales...
Also take great note of how they say that their version of Dante may act like this, and look like this, but that "in end he may change". And MANY DmC supporters keep saying "at end DAnte will become the Dante we KNOW AND LOVE".
The Dante i know and love was disrespected by Tameem Antoniades. The Dante i know and love is apparently no longer cool according to Tameem Antoniades.
So how does Ninja theory's Dante act and look more like Dante make him Dante? Because clearly Ninja theory doesn't like the character Dante, and just loved that Capcom gave them the chance to corrupt it with their own bullshit.
