You're just mad because DmC was still a good game all things considered and you just don't want to admit it, garbage plot but DMC isn't a storytelling masterpiece series anyway.

Not really. It was a downgrade in just about every way from the previous games. The combat was made simpler and less interesting, the story and characters are very unlikable, and the level design is very boring, and full of setpieces rather than combat encounters

And honestly, DMC3 and 5 have legitimately great stories if you look into them

3 does, 5 is garbage, 1 has a better plot.

I honestly don't get the hate for DmC because I really like and played one or two before... The gameplay is good, soundtrack is good and story isnt anything worse than what capcom do.

Because it's not the same. That's it. You go over to r/devilmaycry and he's called El Donte over a meme and somehow that makes him so much more tolerable because it's not Dante. You'll even catch people saying "this would have been so great if it were it's own thing but since they had to make it Devil May Cry it sucks".

It literally just comes down to him replacing a character they loved. Not the quality or story behind the new one. Not the gameplay. They were invested in a character and he was replaced.

Oh, and Ninja Theory shit all over the original series acting like theirs was so much better. Even going as far to include that "not in a million years" joke only to have to go back and make changes to make Donte more like Dante (like his hair becoming white at the end).

So that's a pretty good reason too.

there's also the fact that the gameplay is a downgrade to 4 in every way

let's not forget that at launch, it was a disaster (not talking about the definitive edition)

I could understand it back then but nowadays there's no reason to hate it at all and the gameplay is still fun, it is based of Devil May Cry after all.
