brightblueink: Bert from Mary Poppins doing an epic facepalm (Face palm)

I'm not a Devil May Cry fan--I'm aware of the series and interested in it, but I haven't gotten around to playing the games yet, i've just seen clips and read a light novel--so presumably I'm the target audience for a reboot.

That being said, the marketing so far has been really turning me off. I liked that the old Dante was sort of corny and wasn't necessarily a traditional "bad boy." The new Dante is just a jerk to everyone he crosses, comes across as swearing just to look "cool" and in general just comes across as immature. Also, I think the political commentary being shoved into the plot is annoying.

So, yeah, I was open to the idea of a reboot since it would let someone like me catch up, but I've completely lost interest now. The game looks like an "edgy" game for young guys. I'd say "preteen" if I thought they could actually convince their parents to buy them the game.

To be fair, I think Dante is supposed to be in his late teens in the game, so at least they've got the immature part down pat.

Well, I guess that makes some sense then.

But the way they frame it in the advertising he seems to be portrayed as if he's supposed to be legit cool.

Dante was in his late teens in DMC 3.
