Ninja Theory was needlessly antagonistic to fans of the old series in multiple ways, the story was a weak as shit Reddit vs Fox News bullshit, their way of doing "Almost shakespearean" was to have Donte repeatedly spout "fuck you" and screech dubstep in everyone's ears the entire time, the bosses were piles of shit, Mundus was hilariously weak, and the final boss twist (spoiler: it's vergil) made no sense at all, it simply existed because someone told Ninja Theory that it's a big WHAT A TWEEST to have the guy who's been helping you all along to go BUT YOU HAVE HELPED ME ALL ALONG PROPEGATE MY PLAN HA HA (in a huge mandark voice.)
The sole thing DmC has going for it is some rather remarkable enviroment design in limbo. All depth and complexity are gone. All of the fun is sucked out in one of the worst attempts to make a hip-n-edgy reboot for a new audience, complete with deliberately antagonizing and alienating the previous fanbase for no other reason than to be shitheads who got mad at the fact that you made the main character look exactly like your chief designer.
DmC is an absolutely awful Devil May Cry game. There's nothing wrong with being different, but DmC was a huge steaming pile of shit, made by a company who should stick to making skins of angry birds for a few years until they can learn how to actually write a damned game.
