Oh, I didn't realize that DmC was a separate game and not the franchise itself. Thanks.

I'm sorry you have shit taste and love gratuitous misogyny in the form of a pregnant woman getting fucking shot for shock factor.

(Anonymous) 2019-02-08 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
What people don't get shot for shock factor?

(Anonymous) 2019-02-08 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
There's a difference when it's a pregnant woman. It's a whole other level, dude. And don't try to sell me "but the plot!" when no, the writers had control over that. There was no reason to shoot a pregnant woman through the stomach other than to be edgy as fuck. If the scene doesn't have the same impact with a man in it, it's misogynist shock value. And it is, frankly, disgusting.

(Anonymous) 2019-02-08 02:36 am (UTC)(link)
Oh for fuck's sake, she was pregnant with a demon and she herself was a fucking demon and the entire point of the game was over-the-top nonsense. You're not winning any wars by taking fucking DmC to task.

(Anonymous) 2019-02-08 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
Quit citing plot. The writers put it in there to be edgy as all fuck.

Old DMC wouldn't have done this, because they knew how to be over to top without being downright shock-factor violent misogynist. "Over the top" in old DMC is Dante blowing up a heart shape because he can. Not "shooting a pregnant woman who looks like a fucking human and emphasizing it heavily." The plot and writing doesn't exist in a fucking vacuum.

Yes, you're absolutely right, this is clearly the result of a bunch of dudes sitting around a dimly lit table, Grinch smiles spread wide over their faces, rubbing their hands together as they say in unison, "let's make sure we kill a pregnant woman!" Not that, you know, a character in their game, who is a demon, with another demon inside her, should go out in a tone-appropriately spectacular manner. You're positing a lot of intent that more than likely doesn't exist.

NAYRT but wait, did they or did they not choose to depict a pregnant woman getting shot?

(Anonymous) 2019-02-10 12:40 am (UTC)(link)
NAYRT She was a demon woman with a giant repulsive demon baby.

(Anonymous) 2019-02-08 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
I actually liked DmC, it had good gameplay, amazing art design, and Dante was ridiculous (I love the trope where writers think they've made a cool character but the character is so over the top they're actually dorky).

I honestly believe everyone only hated on it cause Dante looked different and it wasn't made by the original developers.

(Anonymous) 2019-02-08 09:52 am (UTC)(link)
Or, you know, it was because the developer went out of their way to publicly shit on every aspect of the old games?

They very famously produced an in house slideshow with Dante on the poster of Brokeback Mountain, theres the bit in the game where nuDante gets the old hairstyle and says "Not in a million years" like where was the need for that?

Oh and locked 30fps, no Royal Guard, no manual lock-on...

(Anonymous) 2019-02-10 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
The old hairstyle looked stupid, and this is coming from someone with an obsession with white haired anime boys

The homophobic jokes are shitty (I never heard about that), however I really don't think THAT is what got all the fanboys pissed.

(Anonymous) 2019-02-08 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
I just hate how uncanny valley everyone looks in this game.

I miss when games just made beautiful characters without basing them off real people.
