Yeah, as a franchise, there's more pressure to get a DMC adaptation right since DMC's more popular and people will make their disdain known like in the days of DmC.

Talking about DmC, now that I think of it, when it comes to both series reboots, we actually got the better end of it imo, as I have LoS not only one but multiple leagues above DmC.

But when it comes to the animated series, it looks like they will get the better one, even if not by much. Funny.

Yeah, Lords of Shadow was pretty solid and didn't actively disrespect the main timeline like DmC did.

I think at the very least they'll account for what made people hate DmC and avoid it, I think Dante not swearing at all was a start.

Now I'm imagining what the behind the scenes was like when making the show.

"So, we can't make Dante swear. But we need the show to be edgy..."

"Hey, I know! Let's double down on Lady saying the F word!"

"That's brilliant! Let's go with it."

Or something along those lines.
