How can people tell me that this game is the best in the series? I think not. They don't have a problem with Dante being on the sideline for half the game. I'd rather play DMC2 instead of playing Nero and V because those characters are overrated and so BORING.
I'm a huge DMC fan when I get to play as Dante for 4 games (except the reboot), but when it comes to DMC5, I am utterly disappointed because it feels like Itsuno or Capcom had to make Dante a playable cameo protagonist and you only get to play as him for 6-7 missions. Believe me, I've seen lots of people playing as Dante on YouTube because his gameplay is top notch with his Sin Devil Trigger, and 5 weapons.
What's wrong with Nero? Nero's gameplay is slowed like a turtle and very repetitive. Nothing but his lame weapons do any damage, and it gives me a migraine every time I had to S rank mission 8 thanks to the broken scoring system. His costume design is trash, look like he slept with homeless women for 12 weeks straight. Devil arms? Useless.
V makes me feel like I'll never pick up the controller ever again. He can't fight, but his pet demons can. On higher difficulties, his pets will get stalemated, and you have to summoned Nightmare every time you have to deal with annoying enemy designs. It takes like 25-30 minutes to get an S rank because of his nonexistent gameplay.
Vergil is literally broken. It's like Capcom gave him too much OP. Man, I had a blast playing as Mister Storm Approaching.
Dante and Vergil are the best characters. I pretend Nero and V doesn't exist.
