what happened

FUCK YOU

>>378716947
Game is a lot less shit at 8.99.

>>378716947
game is fun as hell and quirky, i dont understand why /v/ hates it

if they had butchered the gameplay i would understand, but who the fuck plays this kind of games for anything but gameplay?

it's not even a bad game

Shit story, okay gameplay, some interesting graphical designs. It's not the best DMC by a long shot, probably the second worst after DMC2, but it's still decent.

That's exactly what they did

That's literally exactly what happened, though.

>>378716947
ratings from key activated products don't matter

>>378716947
Story and Characters. Literally that is it. If they reskinned and made some sort of comedy hacknslash where the dialougue was just FUCK YOU, I would buy it full price.

>>378717092
i've played all DMC games and it felt exactly the same

you guys simply dont want to enjoy the game

Get the fuck out of my board

People are a lot more accepting of a game they don't pay full price for.

>>378716947
good vidya got released, and so reviews are positive despite initial hate (hate that happened because dante has different hairstyle now and says rude things to the bad guys).

Nothing to see here, i guess.

>>378717049
this. series started going to shit with 3 as far as I'm concerned. never like "le wacky dante xD"
1 was the perfect balance.

You fucked with the wrong person, boi.

it's an amazing game.

>>378716947
The combat, with the shit weapons, awful bosses, terrible enemies, and all the ps1 era at-its-worst 3d platforming. Everything about the game was fucking offensive to any person that plays video games

And then the aesthetics, like story and music, couldn't even make up for it. It had no quality. It had no charm. It had nothing at all.

Every single developer involved in the game, and every single person that has ever endorsed the game on the internet, should be publicly executed.

crapcom fucked up and got left behind.

>>378717739
>>378717741
why does it have positive reviews? that's what I was asking

>>378717967
Apologists that think the edgy writing is COOL and MATURE and TOO DEEP FOR YOU!!! and can't believe anybody would prefer a STUPID ANIME WEEB game over superior western characters, hackneyed combat design, shit programming and embarassing teenage emo writing

It's Steam, anything that runs smoothly, and doesn't have a really really obvious flaw that even the most braindead casual could notice, will get lots of positive scores.

>>378716947
Steam reviews were added years after the game launched and the controversey and hatred for it died down
which means not enough people review it negatively
if steam had reviews when it launched it would be an entirely different story

>>378716947
Because, fundamentally, it's an enjoyable game. Once the circlejerk moved on to the next """blunder""", and the price dropped enough that expectations lowered, people enjoyed it.

ok, now I am upset.

does the pc version of DMC 3 have problems?

>>378718439
I thought 3 had many issues as a PC port that still hasn't been fixed.

>>378718498
>still believing the /v/ just want another tortanic meme

/v/ has gotten use to old series being exploited for quick cash at that time, if it was only for this reason alone DmC wouldn't have been as big of a thing on /v/.

also enjoyable =/= good

>>378718716
It's on the same level as the original RE4 PC port, though there are mods to fix it.

>>378718531
/v/ has been reddit since like 2012, I dunno why any of us are still here

>>378717967
>why does it have positive reviews?

because the common man (I am not using this in a derogatory sense) is easy to please, you should know this by now.

to most people as long as the game is (largely) functional, doesn't hurt to look at and responsive it's an enjoyable, or a "good" game to them.

>>378718869
2011 is the day we cracked thanks to VGAs which may or may not lead to the board split, I still remember the following weeks immediately following the split as probably the worst days I had been on this board.

>>378719075
08-09 was my favorite time on /v/ desu ;_;

I miss no captcha, fucking Cornelia ruined everything

Someone post the webm of somebody getting a SSS on the first boss by just spamming.

>>378717186
0/10 you can do better

>>378716947
It rebooted and casualized action gaming instead of continuing on as an actual sequel and seeking to advance and refine the series especially when the flaws in 4 were easily fixable since they were obviously budget and time related.

>>378717021
>quirky
Yea, when I think quirky I too think of abortion by sniper.
HellMOO is the quirkiest game I've ever played anon.

>>378719375
same there brother, it was quite close to my newfag years (06-7) and I was just making a transitioning from /b/, went from only browsing /b/ on and off a few times a week into checking 4chan everyday as long as I have a functioning internet connection all the way into 2017.

I remember very fondly of the DmC threads before its release, those over the top speculations/rumors were really fun to keep up.

DmC would be 10x better if it had Vorgilsaurus

>>378719851
I loved the speculation threads, especially when the first track dropped

>you don't fuck with a god

>>378719427
this please

>>378718716
Mods fix most of them but some areas being locked at 30 FPS really does suck ass

>>378716947
people who actually played the game generally thought it was at least "okay"

I remember the split, but honestly this board just keeps getting worse and worse. This past year has been brutal, and the board is getting slower each day as well; it's sad, really.

>>378721404
Soon enough it will die and take us with it. Sweet release.

>>378717021
the entirety was butchered gameplay, leaf

>>378717526
>Publicly executed
Why are white people always so damn edgy?

>>378722330
actually north koreans are the only ones who practice public execution

There's your problem.

>>378716947
It's 100% anon-certified OK

yes, literally everything outside of the gameplay is cringey as fuck, yes compared to DMC proper, it's watered-down and not worth looking at, but if you were a lad who walked into the game store and picked a game at random, you wouldn't be horribly disappointed.
