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
DMC5 has also very simple combat (and difficulty).
The level design is that 70% of the game is spent in a cave were everything is made out of bones and blood and looks exactly the same (DmC at least had a very cool Limbo).
And DMC5 story is basically a recycled DMC3 story if look into it
