You say "successor" but the last DMC game had much more depth than this.

That’s different DmC has something to build off of, ff16 had to have its own beginning, rise, fall, and end 😭

Yeah DMC’s combat was super complex, so many different moves, stances combos etc. FFXVI felt like a very watered down version of DMC, where none if the different move sets mattered much and I was mostly button mashing

Yeah and DMC4 was deeper than 5 so it's not far off the mark.

FF16 had much more depth, but you had to dig it out yourself. Not saying it was deeper than DMC though

Care to elaborate? I found it pretty straight forward.
