Well they don't need Ninja Theory to make DmC2 lol Itsuno came up with most of the gameplay stuff in that game anyway which why all of it is in 5.
Huh ?
I read in an interview with the DmC director that the only input Capcom gave was when they wanted to see their work so far and Capcom told them it was too faithful to the OG DMC so they told them to change it even more and more...
Also I haven't seen any features from DmC in DMC5.... they reverted back to DMC4's control scheme where something as simple as Dodging is back to being a 3 Step process.... that wire thingy is back to being context sensitive instead of being dual purpose...
The lock on is back... can't say much about this because the issues with the lock on wasn't something you could see in a video... you had to actually use it yourself to get a sense of what was wrong with...
I haven't seen any Dante gameplay though... so if he's similar to British Dante then I'm all aboard... but if I have change styles with the D-Pad and cycle through 4 weapons using one button requiring me to go through weapons I don't want to reach the weapons I do.... then.... well.... I'm still on board but I'm going to complain and whine throughout the whole experience. You know me... its what I'm good at.
